For those who have made club or ball purchases based on a review or influencer coverage, did you do so right-out or did you also validate through a fitting?
Last year I purchased Srixon 765 irons and Callaway Rogue driver/woods based on positive reviews from THP and some other golf sites, and made those purchases without validation of a fitting. I actually purchased those items without ever hitting the clubs, and I ended up being very pleased with the performance of each club.
