OUR JOB IS YOUR GAME

The most comprehensive driver test of 2022.

Since late December, we’ve been working hard inside our test facility. It’s taken nearly 3 months with 38 drivers, 35 golfers, and more than 18,000 shots but the MyGolfSpy Most Wanted driver test is finally here.

How We Test

For our 2022 driver test, over the course of more than 400 individual sessions. 35 golfers tested 38 different driver models. Data was collected using Foresight GCQuad Launch monitors. To minimize variables, all testers hit Titleist Pro V1 golf balls. Outliers were removed and data was aggregated before scores were calculated.

MOST WANTED SCORING

For 2022 (and beyond) Most Wanted testing will use a new 100-point scoring system.
