Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: September 15, 2026

Some links on XS Golf are affiliate links. If you click one and buy something, XS Golf may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you.

XS Golf participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program that pays a referral fee on qualifying purchases made through links on this site. Our Amazon tracking tag is xsgolf-20. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Amazon Associates is the only affiliate program XS Golf currently earns from. If that changes, this page changes with it.

Where affiliate links appear

In product reviews and buying guides, usually in a “where to buy” section or beside a specific recommendation. They are not on every page, and most XS Golf articles carry no affiliate link at all. Where they do appear, the article says so next to the links, and each affiliate link is marked rel="sponsored" in the page HTML so both readers and search engines can identify it.

What it costs you

Nothing. The price is the same as going to the retailer directly. The commission is paid by the retailer out of its own margin and is never added to your purchase.

FTC disclosure

In line with the Federal Trade Commission’s Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (16 CFR Part 255), XS Golf discloses that it earns commissions on qualifying purchases made through affiliate links on this site.

What affiliate revenue does not change

Affiliate revenue never influences our editorial opinions, our ratings, or which products we recommend. We don’t accept payment or free gear in exchange for coverage, and a potential commission is never the reason a product makes one of our lists. If a cheaper product is the better buy, that’s what we’ll tell you, commission or not.

How we reach our conclusions

XS Golf does not operate a testing lab and does not physically test the products it covers. Recommendations come from manufacturer specifications, independent third-party test data, and aggregated owner and expert reports, attributed in the article where they are used. Our Standards & Editorial Policy page explains the method in full. Questions? Get in touch.
