Trolley ban... Unfortunately, with the amount of rain over the past few weeks this has meant the golf course has become very wet. We are advising all golfers to carry their bags, unless you have a genuine medical reason where a trolley must be used. If you don’t have a carry bag or need a new one, we have plenty in stock with a variety of brands. Pop in store to see the range!

Driving range balls and baskets These items are the property of Cumberwell Park and their sole use is for the driving range. Under no circumstances can these items be taken away from the club, or to be used on other parts of the facilities.
These include the course, short game area and par 3 course. Golfers should use their own balls when practicing on the short game area. |

Since the game began in the 15th century, there is one thing that has never changed – the ball being the only piece of equipment used on every shot. Despite this, it still gets a raw deal with some golfers viewing it as less important than the clubs used to hit it. So, we decided to take a look back and see how modern golf balls compare to those of yesteryear. |
| Callaway's Chrome Soft golf ball |
|
In the beginning Feathery balls reigned supreme for over 200 years in the early days of golf, but even they are relatively new compared to the original hairy balls (guess what they were stuffed with!). It's hard to imagine what it would be like playing with those balls these days, and even the later-developed Gutty and Haskell balls left golfers with little-to-no room for error.
|
Where we are today 100 years ago the thought of using a state-of-the-art Graphene-infused Dual Soft Core to minimise driver spin/maximise distance would have been unthinkable (and probably impossible) – but that is exactly what features in Callaway's Chrome Soft. Snazzy Truvis styling is something the Chrome Softs offer too for those golfers after something a little bit different. Why not grab a dozen or two and leave the Gutty at home? |
