It's Masters Week! I personally always look forward to The Masters, but this year due to a combination of factors, I can’t wait for it to start. The Masters always signals the start of our golfing season and with the poor weather we have experienced lately, it can’t come soon enough. One of the main reasons I am looking forward to it so much this year, is that there are so many players either in great form or returning to their best, plus the Tiger factor! It really has the potential to be an even more competitive event than normal, let’s all sit back, take it all in, enjoy it and then resolve to get out on the golf course ourselves. Wasn't it great to see Ian Poulter win his first stoke play event on American soil at the Houston Open at the weekend. He really did play some excellent golf and hole a very big pressure putt to get into the playoff, he also secured a place in the Masters and firmly put himself in the running for another Ryder Cup appearance, excellent stuff!

PING G400 Max
The PING G400 Driver range is being expanded with the introduction of the G400 Max Driver which has a bigger head than the exceptional G400 Driver which has been very popular since its launch. The G400 Max will offer even more forgiveness and is aimed at the golfer who is a bit more inconsistent with their club delivery and strike. This is the same reason for introducing a new more forgiving iron to replace the G Max range. The G700 iron has a hollow body construction, extra strong steel face and forgiving sole, again designed to give maximum room for error. Click here to request your PING club fitting. |

| Put your name up in lights |
It only comes around once a year and it’s that time again - Masters week! The first Major of the year takes place at Augusta National this week, which we always take as a sign that the season is getting underway. With this in mind, we have one question for you: are you ready to play your best golf this year? |
Maximise your potential
We've all sat looking at the honours boards in a clubhouse before, admiring the one name that appears to be on most and thinking 'wow, they must be pretty good!' Well, how good would it feel if that name up in lights was yours? If you come and speak to us we can talk about your strengths, weaknesses and goals for this season and look at the best way to help you achieve them, whether that’s a one-off fault-fixer lesson, regular sessions to aid your consistency or perhaps a look at your equipment. |
