- A category’s full monthly series as CSV.
- One player’s documented history, with the source behind every entry.
- Who switched between two brands, and when.
Most of this is already public — see the monthly readings — but a cut shaped to your story is quicker to write from, and costs nothing to produce.
Using the figures
Free to reproduce, credited to Bag Notes with a link to the page the number came from. One thing worth stating in any piece that quotes a share: these are shares of the players this site documents, not of the whole field, and that group grows as the archive does. A brand can addplayers and still lose share. Counts are always printed beside percentages here for that reason, and a quoted percentage without its denominator will mislead your readers.
Boilerplate
Bag Notes is an independent record of the equipment players play, assembled from published reporting and tied back to it. Every one of its 19,362 claims links to the published report that made it. It takes no payment from manufacturers, and its rankings are counts of cited usage that cannot be bought.
Methodology
How claims are collected, what is excluded, and how the counts work is set out on the about page. If something here is wrong, contact@bagnotes.com — corrections take priority.
