Club news

The future is bright

As you can see from the pictures we had some great weather for the Junior Fit Golf at the weekend. Well done to player of the week Andrew and Robbie. See you all Saturday at the same time.

A blast from the past

This week I managed to get my hands on some rare video footage that I had to share with you all.

For most of us getting a hole in one is the ultimate highlight of our golfing careers but our member Gary Cruickshank managed to get two in the same round and to make it even more special they were back to back at the 1st and 2nd! It must be one for the record books.

Also, some impressive acting Gary.

How does a FREE custom fitting and FREE lesson sound?

It's so important for golfers of all abilities - particularly amateurs, who have far more to gain - to get custom fitted, as opposed to leaving it to chance, like you'd be doing if you bought standard spec clubs straight off the shelf.

You really have nothing to lose. We will help you to get the most out of any new equipment through a thorough custom fitting process before you buy, followed by a lesson to see you on your way.

Come and speak to us in-store if you're interested, but remember this offer is only available until Sunday, 1 July. This offer runs for Mizuno, PING, TaylorMade and Wilson equipment.

Money off a new pair of golf shoes

Our popular Shoe Trade-In is up and running once again, providing you with the opportunity to trade-in your old golf shoes for money off a new pair in-store.

It doesn't matter the age, condition or brand of golf shoe that you want to trade-in. In all honesty, the worse the better.

This offer is available with FootJoy shoes.

It's a shoo-in

Many of you ask for our advice when buying something new in-store, so we thought we’d showcase our top shoes for 2018 in this week’s newsletter. Drumroll, please…

Skechers Focus 2

If you’re looking for a great blend of stability and comfort with a classic golf look between sporty and traditional, we think this waterproof Skechers Focus 2 shoe could be the one for you.

Skechers Elite V.3

If you’d like to add off-course versatility to your options so you
can go straight from work to the course, this Skechers Elite V.3 is a popular option thanks to its smart look and spikeless outsole.

Skechers Pro V.3

We’re fans of the Skechers Pro V.3's comfortable, waterproof leather uppers, plus we like its low profile cleats and responsive cushioning that offers grip with walking comfort.

It's 14 clubs for a reason

This week marks the start of a series of articles where we focus on making sure that you are getting the very most out of the clubs in your bag. A key way to do this is to look at your set as one, rather than breaking it down into woods, irons and wedges.

What does your set look like?
As you know, we’re big advocates of custom fitting for golfers of all standards. Many of you have taken advantage of this and are now hitting the ball further and straighter than you ever have before.

While this is fantastic, if you’re hitting your woods further you may have been left with a fiddly gap to your longest iron; likewise, if your new irons are a club longer then you will inevitably have a gap after your PW.

Look at your clubs as a whole
It’s only by looking at your set as a whole that you’ll be able to spot and react to any gaps, meaning you’ll have a club for every shot you could face on the course.

If you’re a fan of Mizuno like us, you’ll know they offer a great range of clubs to ensure you’re never stuck for options. The GT180 and ST180 drivers each provide powerful and penetrating flights, whilst the CLK hybrid and MP-18 MMC Fli-Hi utility iron provide us with two options to perfectly gap your long game.

Where are your gaps?
Mizuno also offers six other iron models for you to try and the S18 wedge comes in 13 lofts between 45-62 degrees so we can create the best set-up possible during a fitting or gapping session.

The myth that custom fitting is only for better golfers couldn't be further from the truth. Whilst the very best are looking for that extra 1%, a custom fitting for the average club golfer regularly produces results that even surprise us!

New: Garmin Z80 laser

Garmin has been one of the best-selling GPS brands in the golfing market for several years now, and their newest product looks set to continue that trend.

The Approach Z80 is Garmin's first ever laser. Not only does it provide accurate distances to your target, but the Z80 also shows distances to the front and back of the green as well as hazards thanks to its GPS capabilities. A laser like no other.
