Advanced Golf Analytics
Data matters. And when it comes to finding the right equipment, it’s critical. We help solve this by applying the largest connected set of head-to-head data to tackle one of golf’s biggest challenges.
All testing was conducted inside our fully independent test facility located in Virginia. All testers used Bridgestone B330-RX golf balls for consistency and to reduce test variables. All ball data was collected using the world’s most trusted launch monitor, Foresight Sports. All head data was captured using the Foresight HMT device. This comprehensive dataset was then run through our proprietary Most Wanted Rankings methodology that we have developed called TRUERank. What we have developed is the most accurate test to determine the leaders in the driver category.

These results validate the fact that data can be biased in any number of ways to drive different outcomes. For example, compare your winner vs the BB Fusion (I game the G30, so it’s not personal). The winner is only .6 yards longer but is farther from center and has a wider shot dispersion from a club that wasn’t even in the top five.
In my opinion, this shows that you should simply eliminate the outliers and pick the club that looks, feels, and sounds the best to maximize your confidence and then get it fitted so the loft and shaft match your swing.
