I’ve spent more than 200 days on the water over the last three years testing spinning rods for everything from drop-shotting bass in clear reservoirs to throwing 1.5oz plugs at stripers from the surf. In that time, I’ve cast thousands of lures, lost count of the bass I’ve landed, and broken more rods than I’d … Read more

I remember standing on the 14th tee at my home course, looking at a 200-yard carry over water with my 4-iron in hand. I knew before I swung I was in trouble. The shot went left, splashed into the pond, and I carded a triple bogey. That round pushed me to finally try a hybrid, … Read more

I still remember my first trip to a golf store, staring at walls of drivers, irons, and wedges with absolutely no idea where to start. Every brand claimed their clubs were perfect for beginners, and the prices ranged from confusingly cheap to frighteningly expensive. That confusion is exactly why I spent three months testing beginner … Read more
