Mizuno Pro M-15 vs Takomo 101 MKII: the expensive set's gain is in the mid irons, the cheap one's is in the long

These two sets have never been judged against each other, because MyGolfSpy did not put them in the same category. That line, not the gap between the prices, is the decision in front of you.

Bushnell Wingman HD vs Wingman 2: 900 grams, 8 hours, and only the cheaper one charges your phone

The HD puts a proper colour screen on the speaker already stuck to your cart. Two numbers on Bushnell's own spec sheet decide whether that is worth the premium, and neither of them is about the screen.

Warmth tier, 10,000mm, four-way stretch: the one number golf layers never print is the one about wind

On a dry, raw autumn round you are not cold because of the temperature. You are cold because air is moving through your clothes, and the spec that would tell you whether a garment stops it is the one thing no golf brand puts on a swing tag.

Scotty Cameron Phantom 3.2 vs Phantom 12: same price, same face insert, and only one lets the face rotate

Scotty added exactly two shapes to the 2026 Phantom line and put the same number on both tickets. They also share a face. What is left to choose between is the neck, and that has a right answer for you specifically.

Smart Ball, Putting Arc, PuttOut gates: half your practice kit stops a fault and half proves it's gone

Every aid in the drawer does one of two jobs. One physically prevents the wrong move while you are attached to it; the other lets you make it and then tells you. Own three of the first kind and none of the second and nothing changes.

Six pockets is enough on a golf bag, and reach is the spec worth paying for

Across six bags in our own catalogue the pocket count runs from six to thirteen. A golfer opens about four of them in a round, and which four is decided by how the bag stands rather than how many were fitted.

Tour Edge Exotics Milled vs PING S259: the cheaper line starts at 50 degrees, and your gap wedge decides this

One of these lines runs from 46 to 62 degrees and changes its groove design as the loft climbs. The other starts at 50, puts one milled face across all 17 configurations and spends its variety on bounce instead. Where the top of your wedge set sits settles it.

Versus

Garmin Approach S44 vs Instinct Crossover Solar: hole maps against a battery measured in months

Same maker, same course database, same phone app. One draws the hole for you and charges every four rounds. The other survives anything, runs on sunlight and shows you three numbers.

Medinah is 7,564 yards for one week: the transferable part of a Presidents Cup bag is the gapping, not the head

Twenty-four players arrive in Illinois on 24 September with bags assembled for one golf course, one format and one week. The industry sells the heads out of those bags. The part worth copying cannot be put in a box.

Versus

adidas Tour360 24 Spikeless vs Nike Air Zoom Infinity Tour NEXT%: a tour chassis against a running platform

Both are spikeless, both are waterproof, both are last-generation shoes selling at end-of-line money. What is underneath them was designed by people solving opposite problems, and that is the entire decision.

TaylorMade SpeedSoft review: the two-piece ball that still spins a wedge

Sub-50 compression and an ionomer cover, which is supposed to mean nothing happens around the green. Independent launch-monitor testing keeps putting it near 6,000 rpm off a wedge. Here is the golfer that actually helps.

14 clubs between two players: the foursomes rules that change what you carry

The Presidents Cup tees off at Medinah on 24 September and club winter foursomes start the week after. Alternate shot and match play run on different rules to the medal you played all summer — including one that lets a pair carry a single composite set between them.
