How we score

We don't test gear ourselves. We read the major independent tests and reviews, turn each verdict into a score out of 100, and combine them. Lab and robot tests count three times as much as one reviewer's opinion, and panel tests count twice. Each outlet counts once per product.

A product needs at least 3 outlets to be ranked, and its score starts near the middle until enough of them agree, so one rave review can't put it at the top. We leave out any review where the reviewer has a deal with that product's brand, or where the video is a paid partnership for it. Affiliate links and ads are common across golf media, so on their own they don't rule a source out.

Product photos are the manufacturers' own. Prices are what the testers listed, shown only when they agree. We don't use affiliate links, and nobody pays to be on this list.

Products that were replaced by a newer model during the year are left out, so the list only covers what is current: Apple Watch Series 10, Blue Tees Series 4 Ultra, Bushnell Tour V6 Shift, Garmin Approach G80, Motocaddy M7 GPS Remote (2025), Nikon Coolshot Pro II Stabilized, Rapsodo MLM2PRO, Vessel Player V Pro (Heritage Brown), Vessel Player V Pro Stand.
