Golf gear, in plain English
We read the specifications, the independent testing and the retailer listings so you do not have to. Then we tell you what a club is actually worth, in words you do not need a fitting bay to understand.

Drivers, irons, putters, balls, bags and the accessories that actually matter, each with a price range and a straight reason to buy it.
Have a lookTwo-year release cycles, printed irons and the ball rollback. What has genuinely changed, and which parts are worth paying for.

For twenty years the rule was simple. Wait for the new driver to arrive in January, then buy last year's model for a third less. Four of the six big brands have now moved to a two-year cycle and that rule has quietly stopped working. Here is where the discounts have gone instead.

Clubs get all the attention and hold their price. The things that actually make a round more comfortable, a bag that does not hurt, a rangefinder you can hold steady, a glove that has not gone hard, cost a fraction and are where the real value sits.

The plan to make golf balls fly shorter has been pushed back to 2030 at the earliest, and the head of the USGA has admitted the current proposal is probably not enough. If you have been holding off buying balls because of it, you can stop.

A repeat at Augusta, a first major for an Englishman at Aronimink, a wire-to-wire win at Shinnecock and a finish at Birkdale that turned in six holes. The season is done, so here is the whole of it in one place.

Affiliate spotlight
Every "Check the deal" button on this site is an affiliate link. If you buy through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. The price you pay is exactly the same as going to the retailer yourself. Here is what that does and does not change.
Several entries on our deals page exist to tell you to spend less. A fifteen dollar box of golf balls does not make us much, and it is still the right answer for a lot of people.
Discounted gear pays us less than new gear, and we recommend it constantly. A milled putter from 2023 is not worse than it was in 2023.
Golf prices move weekly and sources disagree. Where they disagree we give you the range instead of picking the number that suits us. Always check before you buy.
Grouped by drivers, irons, putters, balls, bags and accessories, so you can go straight to the one thing you came for.
