Club Testers Face the Worst Weather in Hot List History | Golf Digest



There isn’t much that Golf Digest’s lead Hot List judge Mike Stachura can’t control—except for the weather. In episode two of Surviving The Hot List, the 2023 summit is challenged by uncharacteristic desert rain and crazy winds, the team scrambles to find a way to finish before dark.

Being a Golf Digest Hot List tester is every diehard golfer’s dream assignment. At the 2023 Hot List summit in Maricopa, Ariz., our documentary cameras followed Hollywood actor Michael Peña (4 hcp) and retired NFL running back Danny Woodhead (+3 hcp) through their journeys as new members of the Hot List player panel. In a week full of camaraderie, laughs, bandaged hands and launch-monitor readings, our two protagonists learned that testing clubs is hard work, and that there is more great new equipment in the world than they could ever have imagined.
