Get more iron in your diet

If you're looking for a new set of irons there is so much choice out there that it can become a little bit of a mine field. So, why not grab a coffee, take five and watch our latest video on why Cobra’s F9 Speedback irons could well be the perfect addition to your bag?

“If you‘re a golfer looking for more forgiveness and more distance with your iron shots, the Cobra F9 Speedback is a model you should be considering in 2019”

Never has a truer word been spoken and one of the reasons we love the F9 Speedback is because of its helpful design:

“The Speedback shaping brings weight back further into the club to help get the ball up more easily and provide more stability on off-centre hits”

So, now you've seen them, why not give them a go? Our expertise will help you through the fitting process to make sure the investment you're making in your game actually results in better scores. After all, what’s the point of getting the best set of irons if they aren’t perfectly suited to your swing?

A ball for every occasion

Let’s be honest: we're greedy when it comes to our golf ball, and rightly so. We don’t want to have to choose between distance or feel; instead, we want a ball that offers us the lot so we get maximum help on every shot.

Picture the scenario

You’re out playing a round with your friends and you've just used your ball to hit a delicate flop shot over a bunker to a few feet and knocked it in for par - top job! Following a short walk to the next tee, you’re then stood on a par-5 needing to smash your Sunday best as far down the fairway as possible.

This scenario requires a ball that is versatile enough to offer you spin and feel around the greens, whilst providing explosive distance and a high launch from the tee.

Consider Z-Star from Srixon

Fortunately, the clever folks at Srixon know a thing or two about golf balls, which is why their updated Z-Star and Z-Star XV balls are used by some of the world's best golfers.

Here's what you can expect from both:

Z-Star - incredible distance, softer feel and maximum greenside spin
Z-Star XV - great greenside control, maximum distance and soft feel

These are balls that you simply need to try, so come and speak to a member of the team for more information.
