Club news

25th Anniversary weekend a success!

The weekend consisted of 2 great competitions. The first was the anniversary stableford on the Saturday with over 200 entries being recorded (a new record!). With the whole 36 holes being taken up and the stunning weather it enabled great scoring to take place.

The Red/Yellow combination was won by Kevin Killen with a superb 44 points! The Blue/Orange combination was won by Dave Gregory with 45 points! We can all agree the course was in superb condition and the style of event will likely be something we see more of in future competitions.

The John James Memorial Trophy was held on the Sunday and we had 31 teams contest it out for the trophy. With great weather again the scoring was superb, the team of Steve Bygrave, Callum Bygrave, Martin Hitchcock and Kai Hitchcock won the event with 97 points.

Calling all juniors!

We are running a Junior Away Day on Friday 1st November which is open to all junior members on Friday 1st November at the Kedleshire GC.

It’s a great opportunity for us to get the junior section together and have a day out at a different golf course. The day will cost just £15 and includes food, so it’s great value. Space are limited, so please book in with us in the pro shop as soon as you can.

We are looking forward to the day.

Race to the Medallist – We have our final 50!

We held our last summer medal on Saturday, with over 120 players all looking for the final points for the Race to the Medallist Order of Merit. We now have our final top 50, shown below. Invitations will be sent out for the final event shortly.

Congratulations to the Top 50 for making the final event to be played on Saturday 12th October.

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 TaylorMade’s scintillating Milled Grind 2 wedge and look at why it's such a good option to be putting in the scoring part of your bag.

TaylorMade Milled Grind 2 wedges

Now this wedge is quite unique. It's all to do with Raw Face Technology, which increases spin and feel compared with the original Milled Grind.

Not only that but whilst the face rusts over time, the rest of the head will maintain its sleek finish.

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.
