Competition news

A great amount of money was raised...

A total of £3319.72 was raised for the Sue Ryder charity, a massive well done to Andy Phillips and his many helpers, sponsors and all the members and guests that supported the day. What a fantastic effort it was to raise so much money in one day, it is fair to say conditions were a little tricky not that Stefan Brand had problem with them amassing a very impressive 43pts to take the overall win along with the Longest Drive. The new Srixon Z 785 Driver he was trying must have helped. Scott Thompson on 37pts was second with Cath Hunt on 31pts taking the Ladies prize on count back from local pro Suzanne Dickens from Nene Park.

There was also some very good scoring in Monday's Team Stableford. Keith Manning, Pete Corley & Nick Burbridge scored 94pts to take victory from Wayne Jupp, Les Cardy & John Lavender on 91pts with Gav Heaton, Nigel Bunn & Ian McDonald on 90pts in third on count back. The Twos Sweep winners were Pete Corley x2, Wayne Jupp, Les Cardy, Ian McDonald, Bruce Anthony, Danny Huddlestone, Lynn Rawlings, Alan Willis & Mark Weston.

The closing date for the Summer Knockouts has been extended until this Sunday the 12th, please enter in the Pro Shop.

Iron out your game

It doesn’t matter whether you struggle to break 100 or are targeting rounds in the 70s, a set of custom fitted irons will go a long way in helping you achieve your goals. For those of you who think you're not good enough or haven't been fitted before, here's a rough guide to how a custom fit session works.

The rough guide to a custom fitting

• Step 1 – Let’s talk. We use this time to familiarise ourselves with your golf game, your goals and about your current set of clubs.

• Step 2 - You take to the floor. Yes, it's that simple - you hit some golf balls with your own irons so we have a baseline for comparison.

• Step 3 - Hit the latest and greatest. Once you're nicely warmed up and raring to go, we'll give you some irons to try that we think will strengthen your weaknesses and improve your strengths. Take Srixon's Z785 irons for example; a confidence-inspiring players iron from address, with impressive distance and a soft feel through impact.

• Step 4 - Time to dial in. When we've found an iron model that is outperforming the rest, we'll try out different shafts and lies until we get the perfect make-up for your game.

• Step 5 - Your new irons. Once you've got your hands on your new set, we'll keep in touch to make sure you are 100% happy with your new purchase.

So, what are you waiting for? Let’s take your iron game to the next level in 2019 with a custom fitting and let’s give Srixon's Z785 irons a go to see if they are right for you.

Battle of the bags

You may remember in the middle of April we brought you the battle of the shoes. Now, as we enter May, it’s time for another contest as we pit one each of PING's stand and cart bags up against each other in the ultimate ‘Battle of the bags.’

Hoofer Lite stand bag vs Traverse cart bag

In the red corner, we have PING's ultra-lightweight Hoofer Lite option. Although being slimline, this bag comes with seven spacious pockets to house all of your golfing essentials and a spacious four-way top.

Facing off against it in the blue corner is the updated Traverse cart bag from PING. Improved upon for 2019, the Traverse comes with a roomy 14-way top, several large pockets and a great choice of colour options with one bound to be tailored to your taste.

Whether you like to carry your clubs around the course or want a larger bag to sit on your trolley and house all of your belongings, we have plenty of options for you to choose from in-store.
