Editorial Policy

Our purpose is to help golfers make informed equipment decisions through clear sourcing, honest limitations, and reader-first recommendations.

Research standards

We prioritize primary sources for specifications and release information, including manufacturer product pages, manuals, fitting documentation, warranty terms, and official golf organizations. We may use credible independent sources to provide context, but we do not treat retailer copy or isolated customer reviews as proof of performance.

Reviews and buying guides

• Define the golfer and use case before recommending products.
• Distinguish specifications from opinions and marketing claims.
• Explain meaningful drawbacks, fitting limitations, and alternatives.
• State whether conclusions come from hands-on use, documented research, or a combination.
• Avoid guaranteed distance, scoring, or game-improvement promises.
• Review articles when products, prices, rules, or availability materially change.

Commercial relationships

Affiliate commissions may support the site, but commercial availability does not establish editorial merit. Compensation does not purchase a positive conclusion. Affiliate links are marked using appropriate link attributes, and material sponsorships must be disclosed within the relevant content.

Corrections

We correct verified factual errors and update material changes. Minor formatting edits may not receive a correction note. Substantive updates should be reflected in the modified date, and an older publication date should not be changed merely to make content appear new.

Use of artificial intelligence

Automated tools may assist with outlining, organization, or language review, but published recommendations require human editorial review. Product specifications and factual claims should be checked against reliable sources before publication.
