My opinion is this is your channel and your the one that puts in the time, work and money in to doing the videos so do them how you want and let the folks that have complaints feel how they choose. Yes it is a subscriber based channel but yout not going to be able to please everyone. Thanks for your efforts and look forward to the new videos.
Love the transparency and your candid reviews - The information you provide, As I see it, is to help us make more informed decisions - Really appreciate that!!! Keep 'em coming Gabe!! 👍
Love this, literally pleasing everyone. I mentioned the pxg on the bracket post because I'd like to see it. I didn't mention the wilson but did think to myself I'd of liked to see it in there. Love the play off idea to get into the bracket.
Gabe - Kudos to you for having an open mind and being willing to change your intended content. It's not always easy to change and you constantly keep an open mind when you do these videos and give your opinion. I think that is why so many of us keep coming back to view your channel.
Excellent Gabe, and I’m glad you chose the Wilson Dynapower power CARBON version as it appears so far by other RUclips testers to be 8 to 10 yards longer than the titanium! So it could be a serious contender even if it doesn’t win it is not going to be a slouch. This is great news that you’re bringing a few more drivers into the bracket and I love watching your channel and I can’t wait to see all the results here. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the clear up with the Dynapowr. Hopefully you can get ahold of one. The cost value alone probably should give it a mention in your brackets.
Gabe, have you ever tried XXIO woods? I stumbled across a used 3 wood by accident and hit it sooo sweet. I decided to try the driver and I love it. They're both used, but I feel very confident using them. I really enjoy your video content. Keep em coming😊
Really grateful for the update. Glad to hear wilson just get a chance even if it doesn't advance forward. Love your channel. Still hoping for the day that either you and stacked golf can do a course vlog together, or you do a 2v2 with Bob does sports.
Great job as usual Gabe. I look forward to this series this year as I am shopping for a new driver and possible a 3 hybrid as well. I have already taken for a 2 week demo a Ping G430 MAX 10.5 degree driver with the Ping Tour 2.0 Chrome shaft (Reg). It was awesome and the four rounds I used it I hit an average 85% fairways - which is unheard of for me. Of course when you're in the fairway that much (some of the misses were just off the fairway) it made a huge difference in my scoring, shaving a average 8 strokes off my overall usual score.
I have both the Dynapower irons and driver, thanks for your coverage of both. My other irons set are the Cobra Aerojet irons. Hopefully you can review them someday. Keep up the good work.
For what it's worth I picked this up on the weekend in the carbon. 1st date was a blast. I picked up 10 to 15yds on average with very few strays in competition. I'm not sure if this was 1st date exuberant confidence or not but feel like there's more in it now the romance is there. Great vids and glad you enjoyed what Ireland had to offer even if it was winter links golf Take care and keep having fun
Maybe you can do an encore bracket between PXG Gen 6 and the Takomo drivers when they finally get released. 🤷♂️👍 Love your content! Thanks for helping us “mere mortals” navigate the joy of golf.
Spot on your views are worth a lot to us for what your doing we can’t so it really give us some insight for the rest of the mere mortals who try to be our best Good Job!!
Gabe stick to your process. There are plenty of reviews on every club out there. Like you said this is about your bag as well. I am sure the Dynapower will be in the TXG bracket.
You're officially the most unbiased golf channel out there Gabe! The "RUclips Golf BBC", if you will... So many on RUclips ditch their honesty once they have built a significant following, and you see their confirmation bias in club reviews in favour of certain manufacturers. I frequently watch old club reviews of yours and have made some great 2nd hand choices based on those, most recently the Sim 2 Max driver which I picked up as a store demo model for £229. Thrilled that your approaching 50k. Keep the same values and it will soon be 500!
Gabe, did I miss your switch from Oncore balls to the Wilson ball you are using in the brackets? It seemed you were much more comfortable/confident with the SIM2 and making better swings in it’s match up with the Paradym .
I bought the Paradym. Traded it. Bought two Stealth. Traded both. Bought the TSR3. Traded it. Bought the Wilson Carbon. WOW! By far, the best driver of ‘23. Sound, feel, performance, price. Way better choice. Also, Wilson, to me, is MORE respectable than any of the more “popular “ companies. Marketing is a strange animal.
I like how you do it all, but how can you not have your last year IN THE BAG driver in the bracket? The Callaway Rogue Driver? you would think it would have to be beaten heads up to be taken out of the bag????
I try to decide what is the best driver of the year each year of the new releases. And to be honest, I think all nine of the drivers that we have in the bracket would beat the Rogue ST out - many have already done so in the videos I made earlier in the spring.
@LetsPlayThru i see you liked the stz 220 i have it but don't know if it will stay unless i can get a working shaft . . But did you find a noticeable in this and the 230 is the 220 solid enough or does it lack average distance
It’s def important with drivers. As much as possible I try to use the same shafts for the tests. This year the stock configs are all over the place though.
Wilson have been making clubs a long long time......they make good quality clubs but there not acclaimed because they do not spend the advertising bucks and people do not feel the name Wilson does not have enough Bling.
Yeah they fell off a cliff back in the 80’s or 90’s. Couldn’t or wouldn’t keep up with the giant leaps in technology that the other brands were dropping millions into. Glad to see they’re starting to take this seriously again. With Wilson’s history, they should be sitting where titelist is not sitting at the edge of mcgregor purgatory

This has become my new favorite golf channel over the past few months because of transparency like this. Well done sir. 👏

Hey Gabe! It's nice that you included the Wilson Driver but as the song says,
"It's Your Thang...Do What You Wanna Do" 🏌🏽♂️
Thanks for the information, I can't wait for the results.
Thanks a lot for the explanations gabe, cant wait until the next bracket video is up. All the best

I like how you are doing the match ups!! I think Mizuno, Tour Edge and Ping are going to have a shot at winning it all!

Gabe, this is why I like your videos, you are so relatable! Great idea about the "wild card" with the Wilson and Srixon...

Upon your suggestion I purchased a set of dynopower irons thank you for the recommendation and this evening I broke 90 so thank you
That’s amazing 🙌 huge congrats 🍾
@@LetsPlayThru would like to say keep up the great work unbiased reviews and helpful information any ideas on how to get more back spin on wedge shots

Many thanks,ok forward to the Wilson test. Keep the reviews coming always fair and informative.

Always a class act! Thanks for the videos
Until last year I was using the Wilson D350. Wilson makes some very good Golf Clubs.
I had similar results with both the titanium and carbon but felt the titanium to be more responsive. Good choice adding it to the mix
Pxg gen 6 driver are available now . Would be awesome to see it .
A play in match or LCQ is a perfect way to figure out those "to close to call" drivers
Gabe stick to your process. There are plenty of reviews on every club out there. Like you said this is about your bag as well. I am sure the Dynapower will be in the TXG bracket.

Keep up the good work Gabe. You can't please everyone😉.
Great explanation
I think I would have chosen A. Curious to what is what!
I have the Srixon and the Dynapower in top 5 IMO over some major brands. I was putting the Dynapower as far as the Paradym.
Lol it’s not enough that you do these videos but do them the way we say 😂. Don’t sweat it Gabe. Carry on 🏌🏻♂️
Enjoy the brackets each year. As a man once said, “You gotta dance with the one you brung”…
My bracket only includes the Ping, Taylormade and Callaway . I’ve gamed a Wilson before.
Gabe, did I miss your switch from Oncore balls to the Wilson ball you are using in the brackets? It seemed you were much more comfortable/confident with the SIM2 and making better swings in it’s match up with the Paradym .
Hi Jack, I haven’t officially switched but I am considering some new options this year.
I bought the Paradym. Traded it. Bought two Stealth. Traded both. Bought the TSR3. Traded it. Bought the Wilson Carbon. WOW! By far, the best driver of ‘23. Sound, feel, performance, price. Way better choice. Also, Wilson, to me, is MORE respectable than any of the more “popular “ companies. Marketing is a strange animal.
What I'm ticked off about is Golf magazine's complete lack of Wilson coverage in their Club Test 2023 issue.
I like how you do it all, but how can you not have your last year IN THE BAG driver in the bracket? The Callaway Rogue Driver? you would think it would have to be beaten heads up to be taken out of the bag????
I try to decide what is the best driver of the year each year of the new releases. And to be honest, I think all nine of the drivers that we have in the bracket would beat the Rogue ST out - many have already done so in the videos I made earlier in the spring.
@LetsPlayThru i see you liked the stz 220 i have it but don't know if it will stay unless i can get a working shaft . . But did you find a noticeable in this and the 230 is the 220 solid enough or does it lack average distance
Hi Gabe, have you snubbed it yourself by not including it in your best driver competition! 😉
What irons are you using now these days !?!?!?
Takomo 101T
Wilson best driver’s of 2023 🏌🏻♂️
How much do you find shafts play a roll?
It’s def important with drivers. As much as possible I try to use the same shafts for the tests. This year the stock configs are all over the place though.
@@LetsPlayThru ya that will make it a bit tough.
now you know how the NCAA commitee feels :)

All the new drivers are way to expensive. None of them do anything better than the 2 year old versions of the same brand drivers.
I strongly disagree with that. I think this is the best crop of drivers in a long time, and I've seen considerable gains over last years testing.
