Welcome to H.I.T Golf Reviews – the home of honest, independent and trustworthy golf equipment reviews.
If you want straight-talking advice on drivers, irons, wedges, putters, golf balls and golf tech, you’re in the right place. Every review is based on proper testing, launch monitor data and real on-course experience – not marketing slides.
We test all the big names (TaylorMade, Callaway, Ping, Titleist, Mizuno, Cobra and more) plus the direct-to-consumer brands you’re starting to hear about. New vs old, budget vs premium, “forgiving” vs “players” – we put them head-to-head so you can see what actually performs.
Our testing is built around launch monitor data (GCQuad) and real-world shots, but we always explain the numbers in normal-golfer language. No fluff, no hidden agendas – just whether a club will help your game or not.
Whether you’re:
buying your first proper set,
a mid-handicapper looking for more forgiveness, or
a low-handicap player chasing that perfect combo of feel and distance,
H.I.T is here to help you pick the right gear for your swing, not just the newest thing on the shelf.
Why H.I.T exists:
To cut through the hype.
To give golfers the truth.
To save you time, money and a few golf balls.
To make the game a bit easier – and more fun.

Best video is Ron vs Rick 🔥🔥
This video is my favourite
First ,this episode has definitely pushed me more to the takomo if I was ever able to get money aside to get a set .#kids spend daddy's money lol…second ,I really don't have a best episode because I look forward to all new releases and always watch them again.. . fingers 🤞🏼 crossed and good luck all
Don't take this the wrong way but you and rick are brand snobs the takomo irons would take shots off your game 100% but you won't change because they don't cost over £1000 and they don't say ping or tailormade
Any review of takomos. I recently got mine. Love the channel. All the videos are awesome!
End of year awards was a good series. Helped influence an iron set purchase.
Very nice review guy, I enjoyed it very highly.
Thanks the review guy. Very informative
As a less-than-average golfer, I do really like seeing someone who isn't as good as Rick hit the ball. I do appreciate what Rick says and getting that perspective, but hearing how they work for Guy is greatly appreciated. Keep up the great work guys!
They’re all brilliant and I love the honesty from all of you
Not sucking up and its not a favourite but I do like when you do your bit as I high handicapper it makes me feel less inadequate been toying with the idea of these irons but I'm afraid of shopping online I always get the wrong thing lol
Absolutely loved the PGA Show 2026 videos!
Recommended by youtube and instagram golfers … ? They’d promote everything from energy drinks to dog food. No, thanks.
Favorite video was the review of the Taylormade vs Titleist vs Takomo!
On the comments of the newer irons appearing to have a thinner top line. I think that is smart. if golfers are wanting to get better and eventually getting into more player irons. having a set that gives a more player irons appearance can help the higher handicap guys feel more comfortable later on.
My favorite video this year was the surprising comparison between the new Wilson Dynapwr and the Ping G440 !
The first Takomo that Guy did was the most insightful for me as a 15 handicapper.
2025 driver reviews, helped me pick out a new driver just to send it 50 yards right ! But every 7/8 drives I pipe one and as always keeps me coming back 🔥🏌🏾♂️
HIT awards
I have the older 201’s, love these clubs… would like to try the 101’s.
I have the 101 s and need to get stiff shafts for them. This would be a great way for me to upgrade from an older set.
Favorite video was the review of the Takomo Driver. It was the last video I watched before deciding to purchase it. I suck at golf but appreciate a good cheap club for the realistic golfer the rest of us are. Thanks guys!!!
