A surreal experience

Golf returned to the TV with the Charles Schwab Cup in the US, the lack of spectators was a surreal experience but the golf was still blistering!

As it always does, it came down to the putting, after scores of 15-under-par, Collin Morikawa and Daniel Berger needed extra holes to decide the winner. It was a 3-foot putt that sealed rookie Morikawas fate as it lipped out for par giving Berger the win.

Shop news

Please note!

With booking essential for all tee times, practice time, lessons and fittings it’s crucial that we don’t let anyone’s enquiry slip through the net, so please make sure that all point of contact for booking is via the shop direct.

We have two lines in here so you may not get through straight away but keep trying. A number of you use social media platforms, text and What’s App, which although will be answered as soon as possible may not coincide with proximity to the calendars that we use.

Thank you to all those people who have entered the Paul McGinley draw, entries are now closed and the draw will be done next month. Good luck to all.

Range ball collection

We really appreciate the help with range ball collection during our phased return to golf, there is now a weekly rota with times at 9:00, 12:00, 14:00 and 17:00, these are flexible by 15/20 minutes and are also bookable via the shop

Finally, I'd like to reiterate the Chair of golf's note about the importance of submitting your scores remotely before 22:00 on the day of the competition, and how if you, for whatever reason cannot manage it, your card can be submitted by another player.

A simple question

After spending months reminiscing about smashing the perfect drive, striking the sweetest iron shot and draining a distance putt, most golfers had an unfriendly reminder during their first-round back that those shots were not quite as common as we thought.

Now that golf courses are back open, it’s worth asking yourself if you’re set-up to play your best golf. For example, when it comes to your irons, do you have the right model and shaft to suit your game? Do they transition nicely from your woods and down to your wedges?

This is where we can help. Using our knowledge – and whilst having some fun - we can find you the set that produces the best results.

One range we’d encourage you to look at is PING’s, which boasts several models to cover all golfers from game-improvers through to the world’s best. Whatever it is you need from your irons, we can provide it with our PING iron range.

If you think it’s time to reassess your golf bag (and not just the month-old banana in the side pocket), give us a call on 01513427431.

Video of the Week

Woods and Mickelson are undoubtedly two of the best golfers of their generation, but that doesn't mean they haven't had their fair share of poor shots too. Enjoy this week's video from the PGA Tour, which highlights some of the most interesting places they've found themselves in out on the course.

I hope you enjoyed this week's newsletter. As always, if you have anything that you'd like to contribute please speak to one of the pro shop team. I'll see you at the club over the coming days.
