Hello Golfers,

Pro's news

Let's take a tour...

This week I thought I would try something a little different and take you on a journey of what you can find on my website.

There's plenty on there, but I've got you started on three great offerings from my Click & Collect website to our Price Match Guarantee.

Give it a watch.

Be prepared, winter is coming...

Where's the season gone? Although last week's weather was great, it had that last summer-sunshine feel to it - and this week has certainly got more of an autumnal briskness with it.

But the wetter and colder weather shouldn't mean we can't enjoy our golf still, we've just got to be more prepared. In-store we've taken delivery of PING Collection's autumn/winter range to keep you comfortable out on the course, allowing you to enjoy your round still no matter the elements. Let's be honest no-one wants to be wet and cold out there - do they?

So when you're next at the club, be sure to pop in and get yourself prepared for the months ahead.

Unbeatable protection...

Under Armour's Portrush jacket is incredibly lightweight and breathable, so you can be assured you'll be swinging freely and in comfort for the duration of your round.

Key features and benefits includea 2.5-layer bonded fabric is durable and super-lightweight and 100% waterproof and breathable with a taped seam
Windproof construction, shielding you from the elements. And of course Under Armour's stylish look.

Be the first!

We are excited to be hosting Srixon and Cleveland for a fitting experience on Wednesday 2nd October from 12pm to 3pm, which is going to be extra special as you will be the first to see Cleveland's new product pre-launch day.

Sirxon have also had a great year with Shane Lowry winning The Open and you will be able to put The Open Champion's clubs through their paces.

So come and see what thay have to offer by booking in below for a fitting experience like no other.

As if you needed another reason

When it comes to golf footwear, FootJoy has been at the top of the tree for a while and it's easy to see why when you look at the ContourFIT shoe (pictured here).

It boasts the brand's softest ever cushioning thanks to a lightweight yet extra thick fit-bed, which we know you'll love alongside its soft, waterproof leather uppers - key when you're heading into the wetter months!

So, why not pop in and try a pair on next time you're down the club? If you do go on to buy a pair through us, we'll even throw in a FREE Rain Grip glove and a pair of FootJoy socks. Result.

Not long left to have your say

Sorry if you're reading this having already completed our Customer Survey - which we know many of you have - but we'd love it if we could get a few more people to fill it out.

It involves answering a series of multiple-choice questions about your golf equipment, both what you currently use and what you'd be interested in using in the future.

So, if you'd like to help us improve the service we offer you in-store, please click on the button below.

They've done it again

Without further ado, let us introduce Mizuno’s scintillating T20 wedge and look at why it's such a good option to be putting in the scoring part of your bag.

Mizuno T20 wedges

In our eyes, Mizuno's #NothingFeelsLikeAMizuno tagline has never been more appropriate as these new T20 wedges feel simply amazing off the face. You can expect impressive spin no matter the weather too, as its new grooves kick moisture to the curb to maintain backspin in damp conditions.

They look stunning, they perform superbly and there are plenty of options available from a loft, grind and finish perspective.

All that's left to do now is to come and try them out yourself the next time you're down the club.

Winter is coming

Have you ever noticed how much harder you need to hit your putts in the winter compared to summer? As surfaces begin to slow due to longer grass and wetter greens, the need for a little extra effort on your putting stroke becomes clear.

Should you change your putter?

As putts need to be hit harder to get the ball going the same distance as they do in the summer months, using a heavier putter certainly won’t do you any harm.

The thought here is that a heavier putter will do more of the work for you, allowing for a smooth and more controlled putting stroke.

Whilst still being relatively lightweight compared to some putters, Scotty Cameron's Phantom X 12 putter is certainly an option we'd recommend you trying thanks to its optimised weight distribution.

Come and see us in the pro shop and we'd be happy to help you find the perfect putter this autumn.

Spotlight: Boa Fit System

It's not always easy to keep up with the latest trends in fashion or to understand the newest technology that comes to market.

One such thing that we would definitely recommend you trying is the Boa Fit System, which is a replacement for more traditional laces on golf shoes.

We have a brilliant video that explains it in detail if you click the link below but, in short, it allows you to find the perfect fit at just a few turns of the dial - it really is effortless. Come in the shop and try a pair of Boa shoes on to see for yourself.
