Golfing Magazine is pleased to announce the following equipment testing schedule for the 2007 season. As many of you know, Our "HANDS ON" (page 12) and "New On the Tee" (page 24) Play-Testing equipment play testing sections are designed to play-test products in a way that is fair to both club makers and consumers. The play testing involves the co-operation of registered members of the PGA and a mid-to-low handicap player selected by them, to use, and then comment on, different equipment.
In each issue Golfing Magazine play tests a different product category in the "HANDS ON" equipment play testing section. The "HANDS ON" Schedule for 2007 is as follows along with the product submission deadlines. We will send an email reminder prior to each issue deadline for your convenience.
