Jordan's Blog

Hi folks,

What a great week of weather we have had this past week. Although it has been slightly on the breezy side, with a few spots of rain on the occasional evening during the week, it has been almost perfect golfing conditions during the day. With this great weather comes an even better conditions for the golf course. The course is now shaping up brilliantly for the season ahead, so much so, that many visiting parties over the past couple of weeks have been incredibly complimentary of the way the course is looking. I’m sure you will all agree, the greens staff we have at the club do a great job to have the course in the best possible condition all year round.

As the golf season is well and truly underway, the new season clothing and equipment continues to arrive in stock. These include pieces from Under Armour, FootJoy and Glenmuir and equipment from Ping Titleist and Callaway. Everyone is more than welcome to pop into the shop and ask any questions about the new stock and we will help you in any way we can.

There are also some great promotions running that you do not want to miss out on. One of the best ones is the Motocaddy Trolley Trade In. If you are thinking of a new trolley and decide to purchase a Motocaddy then once your new one is registered Motocaddy will collect your old one and give you £60 cash back. Don’t miss out on this bargain.

With Gareth’s arrival back to the shop after paternity leave approaching, normal service will be resuming regarding lessons before we know it. If you had a lesson scheduled for when he was away, give us a phone or pop into the shop and we will get it rearranged for you.

I hope you all have a great week on the course and take advantage of any more good weather that we have. Happy golfing folks.

Product Spotlight

Want to Hole More Putts?

Our product spotlight this week looks at the latest and most modern technology in the area of putters, Evnroll putters. His award winning technology is designed to give and even and consistent roll of the golf ball when hit by the putter, regardless of where you strike the ball on the putter face. This will ensure consistent speed control throughout your round.

This new technology arrives to us in the shop as simply the head on a shaft, no grip on the club. This allows us to custom build the club to you specifications. The putter can be fitted to suit your stroke and will allow you to have complete confidence that you have the best putter possible when you have those important putts coming down the stretch in the monthly medal or during the last few holes of an important match.

Pop into the shop and have a look at these brand new putters and we will get you booked in for a fitting with Gareth. Just watch your scores come tumbling down with the right putter in your hands.

1 gap, 2 options

The term 'gapping' is commonly used to refer to the yardage distance between each of the wedges in your bag. We want to break this thought process and get you to think about gapping for your entire set, because any unequal gaps between clubs will have a detrimental impact on your game.

Gapping at the top end

One part of your set that needs careful consideration is how you transition from your irons into your woods. Lots of golfers struggle to hit their longer irons and instead opt for a replacement hybrid or driving iron, which can lead to large gaps between clubs if you're not careful.

So, what's the solution? Well, take advantage of our services and professional advice, and we'll make sure you have the perfect club/s to fill any gaps at the top end of your bag.

What are your options?

Wilson Staff recognised the issues golfers have in this department and have two brilliant solutions to help you with your game.

Their D7 irons are designed to be easy to hit and super forgiving, which is why we recommend them as the ideal option at the top end of your bag.

If you've always struggled to hit longer irons, the D7 hybrid has options from 17 to 31 degrees (that's a #2 hybrid to '7 hybrid) so will have you covered.

No matter which route you choose to go down, come and speak to a member of the team about your full options so we can guide you in the right direction.

Get your kicks on this summer

Now that the better weather is upon us, it's time to pack those waterproof shoes away in the garage and step onto the course in a stylish new pair of breathable kicks for the summer months ahead.

Why not try Under Armour's Showdown SL Sunbrella?

No one wants to take their shoes off after a round to reveal a less-than-desirable whiff.

Fortunately, that is no longer a concern thanks to this shoe from Under Armour, which comes with a water-resistant upper and a breathable memberane for all-round comfort.

However, that is not even the best bit!

There's no sacrifice when it comes to traction with this spikeless offering either, but you do gain the versatility of being able to wear it both on or off the course.

So, what better way to prepare for the warmer months than by coming down to the pro shop and trying on a pair of these Under Armour shoes before you head out for your next round?
