OUR METHOD

As many of you know, Our "HANDS ON" and "New on the Tee" Play-Testing departments are designed to play-test products in a way that is fair to both club makers and consumers, Pub Links Golfer Magazine utilizes PGA professionals to supervise amateurs to test the latest clubs both on a range and over at least one round of golf. All play-testers are volunteers. They are asked to rate clubs on such categories as Appearance, Feel, Forgiveness, Consistency, Distance and Value using a scale of 1-10, to come up with an Overall Performance Rating. We DO NOT rate clubs against other clubs, rather, we ask our play-testers to rate the club for what it is, to them. This is a subjective exercise. We make no pretense to being scientific. We simply offer our readers the same kind of informal feedback they might get, say, from a friend.
