GolfWRX is going to the PGA Merchandise Show
We want to hear from you… What do you want to see? We will be live at the PGA Merchandise Show next week!!!
GolfWRX will have a fully loaded team of equipment gearheads covering all aspects of the 2013 PGA Merchandise Show. We will be at Demo Day taking pics and video interviews. Then on Thursday and Friday we will attempt to do coverage that has never been seen before.
We will try to cover the big guys but most importantly we will try to cover all the smaller companies as well. We have already had a lot of requests for small club companies. There is also interest in new technologies in gadgets and apps for golf. Instructional devices that integrate into your electronic devices. So we will be on it.
We begin to assemble Monday and will be reporting through the week into Saturday. Photos will added daily and video interviews as fast as we can get them up. We will have a full team there… Richard (easyyy), Ryan (GxGolfer), Aaron (swa), Todd (Asleep), Zach (KascoPro), Zak the Editorial Manager, Greg (pga43), Rob (hipcheck), Rob (ROBOPTI) is in on special assignment LOL…. Wait till you see that. In short we will be armed with video, cameras, and keyboards to give you what you deserve and expect. The best.
If you want us to cover anything please ask in here. We might not have thought of it unless you ask us. WHAT DO YOU WANT? We want to hear from you.

We’re proud to once again partner with 2nd Swing Golf to bring you GolfWRX Members Choice 2025! 2nd Swing has more than 150,000 new and pre-swung golf clubs available in six store locations and online. Check them out here.
What is the best driver in 2025? At GolfWRX, we take great pride in our online community and the cumulative knowledge and experience of our members. When it comes to the best driver of 2025, we want to know what our forum faithful think.
Since our founding in 2005, the bedrock of GolfWRX.com has been the community of passionate and knowledgeable golfers in our forums, and we put endless trust in the opinions of our GolfWRX members — the most knowledgeable community of golfers on the internet. No other group of golfers in the world tests golf clubs as frequently or as extensively, nor is armed with such in-depth information about the latest technology.
Below are the results of GolfWRX member voting for the 2025 best driver, along with the vote percentage for each club.
Best driver of 2025: The top 5
5. Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond: 6.02%
Callaway’s pitch: “For golfers looking for a fast, forgiving, yet workable driver, the Elyte Triple Diamond features a tour-inspired shape and is the preferred model by most Callaway tour players.”
You can read what other golfers are saying about the driver in the GolfWRX forums, and see our launch piece here. Shop the Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond here.
4. Ping G440 Max: 6.86%
Ping’s pitch: “The most forgiving G440 model, MAX has a hotter face to generate speed and distance, and a lighter overall system weight with a longer shaft (46″) for faster clubhead speed, higher launch and longer carries. The Free Hosel and Carbonfly Wrap crown save weight to create our lowest CG ever and increase forgiveness while contributing to a more muted, pleasing sound.”
You can read what other golfers are saying about the driver in the GolfWRX forums, and see our launch piece here. Shop the Ping G440 Max here.
3. Ping G440 LST: 9.53%
Ping’s pitch: “LST is an especially good fit for faster swings, offering less spin and more control with a penetrating trajectory. A hotter face, lighter overall system weight and longer shaft (46″) deliver more speed and distance while maintaining tight dispersion.”
@phizzy30: “Not a fan of Ping drivers in general, but 440 LST takes the cake. It’s super forgiving across the face for a low spin head, looks and sounds good and the ability to make it play neutral or slightly fade biased through the hosel settings is very appealing.”
You can read what other golfers are saying about the driver in the GolfWRX forums, and see our launch piece here. Shop the Ping G440 LST here.
2. Titleist GT3: 16.55%
Titleist’s pitch: “The GT3 Driver offers Titleist’s boldest combination of power and personalization through adjustable performance. Dial in the CG Track to your frequent contact location to make your biggest drives even bigger while taking total control over flight and shaping.”
@mrmikeac: “I’ve been Anti-Titleist for years and years and years (outside of Vokey, of course). With that being said, HOLY BEGEEZUS the GT3 driver is an absolute NUCLEAR MONSTER! This thing blew my G430 10K Max out of the water in every single category. Forgiveness is the biggest thing that stands out of me, the 3 model has always been one of the less forgiving models in the past but this GT3 can take bad shot after bad shot and still end up in the fairway, I think a ton of that has to do with the adjustability, it’s actually effective. Feel and sound is perfect, that solid crack is so addicting to hear and when you hit it out the screws this thing can absolutely bomb it. Titleist, I’m sorry for doubting you. You have converted me.”
You can read what other golfers are saying about the driver in the GolfWRX forums, and see our launch piece here. Shop the Titleist GT3 here.
1. Titleist GT2: 22.91%
Titleist’s pitch: “Delivering impressive distance from any impact point, the Titleist GT2 Driver extracts maximum performance through a forgiving design. Get the stability and added confidence of a high-MOI driver without sacrificing speed.”
@DTorres: “The Titleist GT2 has proven to be the best driver of the year. Packaged in a classic profile, GT2 perfectly balances performance and forgiveness while consistently being a high performer across all categories.”

Danny,
I have interest in that Titleist driving iron too (712u).
I reached out to Titleist via Twitter and said they still don’t have a date to release that product to the public, still testing with their pros.

Hey Guys,
I would love to hear about the latest golf shoes available. I’ve recently had foot issues and would like to know about any new shoes that provide better support and cushioning.
Also, the latest golf swing trainer devices that help with improving your golf swing.
Cheers and look forward to your coverage.

Dear WRX
I hope you find at the NIKE store an addition to the NIKE GPS running watch integrated for gps golf. It seems a logical progression for this to happen. Can you please keep an eye out for this…any news would be gratefully accepted!
Cheers & happy reviewing!
