FOREWORD

It seems just a while ago we featured a mega gear test to help you find the right equipment to build the best possible set of tools for the betterment of your game. Whether you are a pro, low, mid or high handicapper, there is always something lacking in your game. That is where this useful and now annual guide, that stretches to nearly 50 pages this issue, will come in very handy!

In the span of about a year, a lot has progressed in golf technology. We now have a driver that syncs with a free proprietary app on your mobile to display your driving distance as well as keep track of your driving stats. Drivers that already help you drive straighter and further, have improved on themselves, so now all you have to do is to swing that club at the same speed to enjoy the enhancements. We are also seeing the performance gaps between budget, performance and premium drivers closing even further, so that’s a consideration as well if it wasn’t previously.

As for irons, the beauty of the better player models continue to induce uncontrollable feelings of fascination and wonder, where folks like myself wonder when we will be able to wield them effectively. We feature a plethora of putters as well, putters that will suit all eyes, putting strokes and styles. Happy shopping!
