Welcome to your new pro shop newsletter, I will be writing to you every Thursday with news about the shop, the club and the various results.
This week we have launched our new website and email newsletter. My team and I hope you like it. This new website and email is fully responsive in design. Irrespective of what digital device you are using the content will adjust accordingly, giving a perfect display every time. This will allow you to read our weekly words of wisdom from the comfort of, for example your sofa, office or even a train.
We would love you to explore my website and investigate the tips and drills, product catalogue and interact with any features we have on the website.
Our aim is to provide you with weekly relevant golfing related content. From product reviews to coaching tips, we want to explain how my experience and skills as a PGA professional can help you get the most out of your game and ensure you make the right choices when buying golf equipment. Finally, and of course most importantly, we want to keep you up-to-date with what is happening here at our golf course.
In this first week we have a couple of great articles, one of which gives you the chance to WIN a dozen golf balls. Tell us what your key personal priorities are when you are looking at buying golf equipment; Is it Brand, Price or Fit? Take a look at the article below and enter the survey.
We look forward to any feedback you may have so click here to tell us what you think about our new email and website.

If your pass has or is due to expire soon, you will be contacted about the new swipe card system by myself or one of my team in due course
