The Sandtrap is great. I go to Golfwrx to see pics of new clubs etc, but stay away from the forums for the most part. Too big for me, but TST is just right combination.

For a very long time, I used to just go to TST and not visit the forum. I dont go to any other golf site because too much reading messes up my game. Wonder how many are out there who go to TST every day and are not members of the forum. That might be an admin qn.

Hundreds of thousands per week. We do pretty well. I don't like to brag about it much, but a lot of people know about the site and compliment us regularly on things like our reviews.

A lot of our traffic comes via search engine results, too, as our reviews and other articles usually rank pretty highly. [/bragging] Blech, ok.

There are some things worth bragging about. I think this is one of them.

You certainly have plenty to be proud of. This site is a great service to golfers the world over. Better than all those glossy mags that sell for money. Rare.

I think WRX is catered towards equipment enthusiasts aka club-ho's. There are forums for every kind of equipment, tour, otr, putter, japanese, accessories. Is great if you are searching for something specific.

Don't know about you guys, but I find WRX to be a very slow loading website.

I prefer "The Trap" but I do just look on golfwrx to see what is coming out. It just seem a little more my speed here not to over techincal. I mean you can get caught up in all that techincal crap and for get this is a game we all love and this is the real reason we are here.

I haven't been as active in here as I use to be, but I'm obviously biased. This is a much cleaner and better forum than GolfWRX.

Erik has built something to be proud of...and I'm proud to have been a part of it.

Fairways and Greens.

Golfwrx is way too busy for me. I am a member there was well but i think have only made two or three posts, just too big and busy. TST is much easier on the eyes also.

I agree. I joined their community, but find it to be too busy and large to spend too much time over there.

I like both BSG and GOLF WRX a little better. There seems to be better and more knowledgeable posters there. The Sand Trap seems to be for novice or higher handicap golfers.

I like both TST and WRX. I've really become disenchanted with BSG. It's really just a place for a couple guys to sell stuff for ridiculously inflated prices, and to couple it with questionable services.

On the other hand, I also really like golfdiscussions.com

Golfwrx is nice for a quick overview of a ton of eqipment. But, the in-depth reviews by the Sand Trap staff are far, far better. In fact, I would say they are far and away the best golf equipment reviews on the net.

It's irrelevant. They have their role, we have ours. They're a partner of ours, as well.

And yes, the last rude comment was removed.
