Sometimes it seems like you need an advanced degree and years of time in an R&D lab to truly understand all the intricacies of modern golf equipment. Moments of inertia, launch angles, swing speed, titanium and carbon and graphite — who really understands what it all means and how it applies to your game?

We're here to help. Every Wednesday in Ask the Gear Doc, we'll tap into the expertise of our exclusive research partner, Hot Stix Golf, to answer reader questions.

So before you head out to buy that new driver, send the good doctor an email at geardoc@hotstixgolf.com and then come back to GOLF.com on Wednesday to see if your question was chosen.

Hot Stix Golf is the largest independent club-fitting lab in the country. It provides Tour-level club-fitting services to professionals and amateurs of all abilities. To learn more, visit hotstixgolf.com or call 877-513-1333.
