Which equpment reviewers do you trust/like?

[RH82]

Michael Newton is my absolute favorite. He always makes it known if a club face is closed, neutral or open which is something I always look at.

GolfNut is an underrated one. I especially like the mis-hit testing and different speeds.

Have to say I really like Sophie at golf a lot too. She seems to be one of the few who aren’t afraid to call it like she sees it. She’ll include actual perf and comparison data to back it up too, something most others won’t do.

 

My only gripe is italicized spin numbers so they're estimated rather than measured.  Really need some RCT's in the bay.

One of my favorites is Alex Etches, he's absolutely hilarious and a regular dude, other than bombing the driver a country mile. 

 

Hannah Holden from NCG is very good, along with Sophie Walker. They both have normal swing speeds and do in-depth reviews that I relate with. 

 

As for the others 2nd Swing and TXG are right there. Newton would probably be my favorite out of all the big guys like Shiels, Finch and Crossfield. 

 

I'm a club junky so I pretty much watch them all. Clearly nothing compares to testing clubs yourself. But.... watching all the videos combined you begin to pick up on the trends of a specific club and testers, whether it's low spin, forgiveness, feel, etc, etc.

I watch a few of them, Michael Newton is one of the best, although he does rush through his reviews somewhat. I wouldn't mind if he spent an extra five minutes with his reviews.

 

As to James Robinson, the clickbit titles are annoying, but fake YouTube drama gonna drama. Algorithms...

 

I've also noticed that his new simulator is a bit funky. He was hitting a hybrid (I've seen it with other clubs too) and his club speed was around 125mph one shot and 100mph on another.

 

Jimbo must have been on three Weetabix that morning!

TXG Seems to get it right for me 🙂
