1. Name Brand - I gravitate towards certain brands because of preference and reputation.
2. Buzz - What items are creating the most excitement.
3. Looks - asthetics are very important.
4. Price - generally used as a tiebreaker if all else is the same or relatively close
That just gets the game started. Once a club has my attention, it has to perform for me and that is most important. The ability to hit good shots with the club decides if it goes into my bag, and more importantly stays in there. I was all set to love the R11 driver which aced all above criteria, but playability wise, was not the club for me. I ended up with the Superfast 2.0 instead.
