TSP review system

How we evaluate golf gear

Competitor research showed that winning gear-review pages lead with clear winners, visible criteria, tradeoffs, trust signals, and clean shopping paths. This hub is where TSP standardizes that system for golf.

Player fitSegment recommendations by handicap, swing speed, room size, walking/riding preference, and practice goal.
Measurable feedbackPrioritize gear that changes a measurable outcome: launch data, dispersion, speed control, alignment, or comfort.
Practice realismSeparate novelty aids from tools that create repeatable feedback and transfer to the course.
Total setup costTrack mats, screens, subscriptions, shipping, accessories, and whether the best value is new or used.
Upgrade timingFlag gear that is worth buying now versus waiting for a fitting, a sale, or a better skill baseline.
Direct commerce pathsPrefer official retailers, specialist stores, and clear return terms for higher-ticket golf gear.
