You Are The Key To This Revolution
I want to thank everyone who has viewed the #PowerToThePlayer campaign and donated. We have hit the 23% mark in our campaign!
What does that mean?
Look no further than our recent driver test where 28 drivers from manufacturers of all different sizes were put to the test by actual golfers. Winners weren’t decided by a vote or by counting advertising dollars. We offer real results backed by real data. We believe this is the way club testing should be done.
We’re investing a substantial amount of money in our testing program. With your support, we’re going to test every club in the bag and put more industry claims to the test. We’ll open our doors to companies of all sizes. We’ll help take the gueswork out of finding the best club for your game. We’ll save you money and help you play better.
For all of that to happen, we must have our own test facility, we must remain free from the influence of big OEM advertising. We must remain beholden to no one but you.
If you haven’t done so already, please support MyGolfSpy’s Most Wanted Testing program. Help us remain the industry’s loudest independent voice for change.
WE NEED YOUR HELP
MyGolfSpy exists to serve and be an advocate for golfers at every level, age and gender. At its heart though is a growing community of golfers looking for truth and who want to be heard. Whether you’re able to donate to our campaign or not, you can still help send a message to the industry that golfers want change.
We have created simple and quick ways for you to help spread the word about our movement and educate other golfers about the importance of unbiased testing.

Golf is long overdue for change.
It’s up to all of us to reach out to as many golfers AND golf companies as we can. Let the industry know that golf consumers are tired of the way the industry has conducted itself. It’s time to put the power in the hands of golfers.
By taking a couple of minutes to copy and paste these subjects and messages into an email you join the growing legion of golfers who demand better from the industry. We’ve also provided a list of emails addresses for you send to but feel free to spread the word beyond those contacts.
Power to the Player!
Let the media know that truth in golf is important to you:
Subject: Golfers deserve the truth.
To Whom It May Concern:
We’re tired of the hype,
We deserve the truth.
No game in the world is more desperate for change than golf. 5 million golfers lost in just the last 10 years alone. This has dominated the headlines in 2014 and shown the desperate need for innovation and change.
We the players, want to send the industry a message and spread the word about our frustration.
MyGolfSpy was founded for these reasons and sparked to life by golfers just like myself. They have quietly grown as a major force in the industry with over 500,000 readers per month. I just pledged my support for the work that MyGolfSpy is doing. It’s important. Will you support it too?
The industry needs accountability and the players need a voice. The industry can not afford to wait any longer.
Thank you,
Concerned Golfer

Golf advertising is a scam. It is all about length, like cars are all about speed. Usually nothing is said about accuracy, it is all about length. Use this club and hit it farther than that club. These Irons are longer than theirs, and so on, and I challenge anyone to find an ad in a major Golf magazine the does not emphasize length.
As a player, club maker, designer, teacher and repairman I have seen it all in my 50+ years in the business and it is all a big scam. Sure, buy my club and hit it farther,,,, of course you have to have big speed to do it, something you are not told. Sure when I was a young player and my club head speed was up there I was very long, big surprise. Today as an ancient has been I don’t even know my speed and don’t want to, but it is slow. I have tried all the new “long” stuff and haven’t seen anything that really impressed me by increased distance
Bottom line is that the name of the game is distance, simple, advertise that this club is the longest and people will come. Sure there are good combinations of head and shaft that will help, but even that is limited to ability. I want to see truth in advertising for a change, and for Gods sake quit with the new club every 6 months that “makes the last one obsolete”, they have been screwing the Golfer out of their money for way too long.
