Sub 60 to win The Scramble!

Myself, Nick, Lee and Ben scored 59-1=58 in very windy conditions to win the August Summer Cup Texas Scramble on Sunday. Jim Dudley, Danny Phillips, Nigel Bunn and Ian Mcdonald 65-4=61 finished second with Angelo Antonucci, Con Lindgren, Ady Bingham and G Luparia 68-6.6=61.4 in third. The nearest the pins were on the 7th hole Paul Rawlings, 11th hole Tom Gillespie, 17th hole Angelo Antonucci and myself on the 2nd hole.

Danny Huddlestone on 40pts top scored in last weeks Midweek Stableford to take Division 1 from Gary Proctor on 37pts and Ben Templeman on 36pts. Michael Powell’s 37pts secured Division 2 from Mick Burch on 33pts and Terry Mountain on 32pts. The Twos Sweep winners were Giovanni Rizzo, Matt Deegan, Tom Gillsepie, Ben Templeman, Norm Wainwright & Pete Howard x2.

The A Team go away this weekend to Gedney Hill knowing that a victory will win the league and secure promotion. It is always a tough away game though and a victory for Gedney will also mean they win the league. A quick reminder that it is the Peacock Pairs on Sunday, please give the shop a call if you would like to play.

Time for a little refresh?

If you're still wearing polos from years gone by that have threads hanging off and buttons missing then it's probably time you upgraded your wardrobe - wouldn't you agree?

We have a fantastic range of clothing available in-store, some of which has been discounted for your pleasure - and in peak season, too!

So, be sure to pop your head in next time you're down the club and bring that old shirt with you.

Guess the link...

You will no doubt have heard of Srixon when it comes to golf balls, with some of the world's best using the Z-Star and Z-Star XV models to secure victories over the past decade or so.

Well, Srixon clubs are equally as impressive but have somehow gone under the radar; just ask Shane Lowry who used them to such great effect during his Open Championship triumph last month!

So, to celebrate all things Srixon and Lowry's Major win, we're giving away a dozen Z-Star XV balls for FREE with every Srixon driver purchase. It's a limited time offer so come and see us in-store soon.

Plain or personalised

No distractions

It's not always easy to get in the zone or feel completely comfortable over the ball so, when you do, the last thing you need is to look down and be distracted by your shoes. Style always comes down to individual taste, but here are two shoes that catch our eye for different reasons.

Puma PWRAdapt

Rickie Fowler likes to make a statement and you can too with the ultra-modern looking PWRAdapt shoe, which features a performance mesh and PWRFrame visible at address for a louder look.

Puma Ignite NXT

The Ignite NXT also boasts a waterproof performance mesh and PWRFrame, but comes in a more trainer-like look and with a spikeless outsole.

We have an extensive range of golf shoes available in-store with styles, colours and designs to match everyone's taste. So, be sure to pop in and try on a pair or two for size the next time you're in the market for new shoes.

Variety is the spice of life

Whatever happened to having a ‘textbook’ swing? If you were to watch golf on TV you’d see all sorts of different swings that have propelled these golfers to the top of the world, and the same can be said on the greens too.

There's definitely no single approach when it comes to how you grip your putter. You have a more traditional no-fuss approach that is favoured by the likes of Tiger Woods; a left-below-right grip which is a recent craze made famous by Jordan Spieth's putting heroics; and then the opposite extreme in anchoring that has recently been banned by the R&A.

Cleveland putter range

That's gripping the club but what about the actual putter itself?

Take a look at Cleveland's range for example. In this photo alone you can see the TFI2135 Satin line, which is made up of several larger headed putters that are so popular on Tour thanks to their stability through the ball, as well as the more conventional headed blade putters.

With so many head styles available - not to mention lengths - using our expertise is the safest way to ensure your next purchase is the right one for your game.
