Golfing Magazine is pleased to announce that it will feature Drivers, Fairways and Driver Shafts in its “Hands On” Equipment Testing section in the upcoming Early Summer (May/June) 2016 issue. As many of you know, Our “HANDS ON” 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 rate and comment on, different equipment.
Equipment is evaluated by our play-testers to help determine Golfing Magazine’s
“Players Choice Awards”.
• Information about the product and testing results are published in print in Golfing Magazine, online at www.GolfingMagazine.net, in the Golfing Magazine eNewsletter and in the digital version of the printed magazine. All above editorial avenues reach in excess of 500,000 golfers.
We invite all manufacturers to participate in the driver and fairways test in our “HANDS ON” Play Testing section. Product is accepted on a first come first served basis.
