As the Golf Monthly driver tester I managed to get my hands on every 2026 model over the last few months and with our new Performance Lab I could put them all through thorough testing. This area allows me to set the drivers up in a similar fashion, get accurate indoor data whilst I also do a lot of testing outdoors as well.
So, switching to the drivers themselves, and the 9 I've picked out below, it is worth noting the selections are based around several categories, including best for low spin, most forgiving, best direct to consumer models, best anti-slice, and my top overall picks. The specific selections in each category are listed further down this page and if you want more information, then please scroll down a bit further to check out my full video on this guide. I wouldn't be doing my job if I didn't send you over to the Golf Monthly YouTube channel as well!
