TESTERS WANTED! ×

What are you hoping to test this year?

Having done tests in the past I personally enjoyed reading the team reviews. Those being people together and you get amazing reviews and it's a lot of fun to read. So I don't know if there is a product I want to see tested but more I want to see more team style reviews like the Cobra connect from last season.

+Whatever number we're on

 

That Cobra challenge was a lot of fun for the whole forum. The participants talked a smack load of smack and there was high energy for the 4 weeks it ran plus a week or two before and after. It really was the event of the summer. I think it was great because it was just drivers so very simple to set rules and the prizes were other worldly.

I have an ER5 that I'm looking to get rid of. Love it, but the MLA has been magic for me. Thinking around $225. Was refinished at continental golf in Raleigh.

I'm saving up my golf funds for now, plus I'm a lefty haha. I have an MLA as well that is most likely going back in the bag this season.

For me I want to test the Rogue Fairway or hybrid. The Epic has been awesome. If the jailbreak works as well in the Woods could be interesting.

 

The M4 also has me intrigued, as well as the p790s.

I'm not sure you'll see Callaway or TM. Remember they aren't participating in Most Wanted so MGS is forking out their own money to make sure they're included in the results.

 

It would really surprise me to see to see a forum test for either company this year.

Maybe not in a forum review, but I will be testing them out once the local shop gets the fitting cart updated with the heads and shafts. I can't see myself replacing the Epic this year. Have a HC even flow in it and works great. The Epic Fairway is solid but the jail break tech has me thinking about swapping out.

I have already hit the new stuff I was interested in and only popped on the new Callaway MBs. Was not a fan of any of the Rogue line or the M3/M4 stuff.

Ready for the weirdest request so far? Skechers golf shoes. I don't need new sticks, or anything (however, if Cobra is sending One Length hybrids to test, I could use the 19* hint hint). But I want to put on some Skechers and put them to the test.

Would be cool I got to demo it at the first release anc it was pretty cool to see an analytical breakdown of play. Helped make club selections a bit easier kind of awesome.

I'd like to see more unofficial reviews. They really add to the volume of information, and it's great to see people putting in an effort for everyone else's benefit, without the added incentive of a "freebie".

 

Not sure when my new Hogan wedges will be put into play, but I'll add my thoughts to Revkevs thread. If it wasn't for MGS I wouldn't have even heard of Scor or the new Ben Hogan brand.

I'm hoping to have some new irons to either put up a review or add to the Mizuno JPX900 thread as that's what I'm leaning towards at the moment. A review of the MP18 family would be great to see.

The Titleist 816 H1 if you can find them used would be the perfect compliment to your AP1 irons.

 

I was never good with hybrids until I tried thd 816. It was like magic from the first swing. And they are going into the 3rd season in my bag.

 

So knowing me, that's saying something

I have the 816 h1 in my bag and it is a great club. I bought a used one at 3balls.com for a good price and they generally have codes for more discounts. I would also look at the 816 h2. When is was doing most wanted testing last year I think the h2 might have been a little easier to hit. I think the thing about the 816 is that they don't feel head heavy and have good balance.

Are those things adjustable where you can up or lower the loft?  How about open or closed?

I'm hoping to get a chance to test a good utility iron/driving iron as it is a need for my bag and I know my distances well enough to see an immediate benefit or not.

 

That or putters. I love practicing putting, and there's always the hope that something out there is better for me, and now that I know my fitting specs I might be able to pick out a good one.

 

 

I can really see this as being the "year of the driving/utility iron"....

I agree!  Being on "team Lexi" was a lot of fun.  There were a few things I'd do differently but I thought it was a good change to the standard product reviews.  Hopefully there will be a few more going forward.

I haven't done a lot of research but don't understand driving irons. I am guessing it is a really low lofted iron that has a really low cog to help off the tee? Not sure how it really differs from a hybrid off the tee except maybe for feel. I personally love hitting my hybrid off the tee on shorter par 4s and as I mentioned don't understand the theory behind driving irons.

Myself and a few others on here have mentioned that we have issues hitting rope hooks from turning over too quickly. Personally ever since I got my Cobra DI to replace my 3h, I won't be going back to hybrids. Unless I'm unable to find a 5 in which case I'll be breaking out the lead tape

Cobra driving iron helps tone down the rope hooks!? I might need to look at one of those although my swing speed would be a deterrent.

Thanks. I am familiar with the draw/hook bias of hybrids as I experienced that as I was doing my search. I guess driving iron sounded too limiting and I never gave them a chance. Fortunately for me I found a hybrid that works well for me.
