Equipment trends

What the panel was playing at the end of every month from February 2010 to October 2026. Each reading counts the players cited in that category as of that month, credited to whatever they were most recently reported using — so a quiet month repeats the last reading rather than collapsing to zero.

A share here is a share of the players this site documents, not of the tour. That panel grows as the corpus does, which is why every percentage on these pages is printed beside the count it came from.
