With our annual “One Word” Survey, we get of sense of your perceptions of certain golfer brands. With our Golfers’ Choice survey, we get to find out if those perceptions carry over to your golf bag.

A WITB for Average Joes

What’s in the Bag (or WITB for short) on the PGA TOUR is a big conversation point but we’re more interested in what our readers—real golfers who are among the most avid anywhere—have in their bags. Presumably unencumbered by endorsement deals, what you choose to spend money on and ultimately put in your bag is far more telling than what the pros are paid to play.

We want to know if you’ve bought new clubs recently and what brands you’ve chosen to fill every spot in your bag.

And, just because we’re curious, we’ve thrown in a couple of questions along the way but, in five minutes or less, you can help us better understand what brands MyGolfSpy readers are choosing to play.

As always, we’ll share some of the more interesting results in a few weeks.

The defending Masters champion won't be burdened by trying to defend his green jacket. That's not how he's built. And with his brother on his bag at his family at his side, he's turned into a "soccer dad" who knows what's important.

Sunday's victory is changing the narrative about Jordan Spieth heading into the Masters.

The Best Drivers for Mid Swing Speeds

Today, we reveal our test results for the Best Drivers for Mid Swing Speeds (90 to 105 mph). If this applies to you, read on. If not, stay tuned. Test results for slow swing speeds are on the horizon.

Our mission is to understand and discover which piece of equipment best serves each individual golfer. Our 2021 Most Wanted Driver Test featured 38 different models—35 testers with 35 uniquely different swing characteristics. In the end, 18,000+ shots of data allow for a breakdown of the best drivers for three different swing speed categories: high, mid and slow.

The Best Driver for Mid Swing Speeds: Titleist TSi3

The best driver for mid swing speeds is the Titleist TSi3. “Strokes gained” is the ultimate measurement of performance and this is where the TSi3 makes its mark.

1st in strokes gained4th in total distance17th in forgiveness

While its forgiveness performance is mediocre, the TSi3 excels in the metric that catches most golfers’ attention: distance. The combination of distance and the best strokes-gained score has this as a potential perennial performer.

He came with a plan of attack in November. It didn't work. But that's not going to cause him to change five months later. He's still going to try to overpower the place.

Patty Tavatanakit survived Lydia Ko's final-round charge Sunday to win the ANA Inspiration for her first LPGA Tour victory.

Jordan Spieth ended a slump that lasted nearly four years, closing with a 6-under 66 on Sunday to win the Valero Texas Open.

Brooks Koepka, 30, who had surgery on his right knee March 16, arrived in Augusta on Sunday, played a few holes in an afternoon practice session, and told reporters he intended to tee off in The Masters.

Ali Mulhall and Yana Wilson, best friends from Henderson, Nevada, both won the Drive, Chip & Putt National Finals at Augusta National in their respective age groups.

Jon Rahm announced Sunday via Instagram that his son, Kepa, was born Saturday morning, ahead of this week's Masters.

Sometimes, nearly a football field is between his drives and those of big hitters like Bryson DeChambeau or Rory McIlroy. At 63, Bernhard Langer can still keep up with the young guys, especially at Augusta National.

After a quick, five-month break, the Masters is back. Our panel, in a strange twist, found some things to agree on, like the possibility that Jordan Spieth might be ready to break through, that the patrons will impact this tournament and more.

The PGA Tour said it would not move the Tour Championship out of Georgia but said this "should not be construed as indifference to the current conversation around voting rights."

Patty Tavatanakit all but crushed her challengers' hopes after opening a five-stroke lead in the ANA Inspiration on Saturday.

Jordan Spieth and Matt Wallace are tied for the lead at 12 under heading into the final round of the Valero Texas Open after both players birdied their final two holes of the day.

Japanese teenager Tsubasa Kajitani overcame a double-bogey on the 17th hole by closing with a superb par save, getting her into a playoff that she won on the first extra hole Saturday to capture the Augusta National Women's Amateur.

A packed leaderboard down the stretch at Augusta National? That's how it goes, no matter what event it is here. But the course played hard, which could be what is in store when the Masters gets going, too.

Raise your hand if you play Nippon Modus iron shafts.

If that’s you, keep your hand in the air and consider that for golfers who find optimal performance with one of Nippon’s Modus Tour iron shafts, it also offers a commensurate driver (or fairway) shaft.

For example, if you play the Modus Tour 105 or 125 series shafts, Nippon would suggest you look at the Regio Formula MB+.

At face value, it’s a concept that seems to almost make too much sense.

With that said, we’d like to get some feedback from MyGolfSpy readers.

Consistently playing the same, high-quality ball is a must for golfers of all abilities to score their best, but what if the retail price is just too high?

MyGolfSpy testing has proven the importance of the golf ball. There is a significant, measurable difference in playing a high-quality one. Additionally, playing the same ball every round, instead of just playing whatever you find in the woods is a simple way to eliminate a variable that could impact scoring. That said, not everyone can justify paying $40-$50 or even higher per box of balls, especially if you are losing several per round. For these golfers, it’s important to know that there are options to get tour-level balls at significantly lower prices.
