Matt Southwell

Greetings from the professional Team,

In this week’s newsletter, we have information on the new 2018 Skechers shoes, the new Titleist Vokey SM7 wedges have arrived and are ready for fitting, our Portugal coaching group had some inclement weather, and it’s the usual result in the Senior/junior match. Enjoy the read!

Pro's news

From snow to sun

Last week Dan, one of our PGA Professionals took a group of 12 golfers over to the Algarve on a warm weather coaching break. When they arrived they were greeted with high winds and stormy weather conditions, with both courses on the Amendoeira Golf Resort closed due to flooding. Luckily the weather did pick up and the trip was back onto schedule. It defiantly beat the weather that we experienced back in the UK!

Congratulations to the winner of the trip – Pete Bryant.

Great golf all week!

Brand new – Titleist SM7 Vokey wedges

We have just taken delivery of our brand new Titleist SM7 demo wedges, with a large range of lofts, grinds and bounce. Including the brand new D grind, this was the most used custom grind on tour that wasn’t available to the public in 2018. The D grind is a high measured bounce with the crescent shape of the M grind is ideal players with a steeper angle of attack who play with a variety of clubface positions.

Senior news

Weekly update

With all the snow on the ground there is little golf to report on in the Senior Section. Before the snow fell, the annual Senior vs Junior match took place. The usual result was again a win for the Juniors by 3.5 to 2.5. We blame the awfully cold day.

The only other event to report was the Senior AGM on March 5th. It was pleasing to see 51 members attend and we welcome our new senior captain David Cartridge and his Vice Captain Keith Bayliss. For those of you who done know Dave, he is at the golf club most days and you will find him smoking his pipe out on the patio.

A few dates for your diaries. The Senior Captains Charity day is on June 4th. The Senior open is on 3rd September. The Senior Captains away day is at Wishaw golf club on 13thAugust, the list for this is on the noticeboard. The cost will be £35 for coffee and bacon bap on arrival, 18 holes of golf and a 2 course meal after.

Future events

19th March Leading Edge 1 Tee times on Noticeboard.
26th March Leading Edge 2 Entry List on Noticeboard

The entry sheets are up on the senior’s notice board for the Vets team matches in April 2018. If you wish to play please put your name and handicap down to be considered for the team.

Listen to what he has to say

We’ve been hammering home the importance of getting your clubs regripped for the past few weeks now, so we thought we’d take a closer look at one particular grip that we’re currently offering to put on your 7-iron for FREE…

Interview with David Leadbetter | Golf Instructor

Why try the Golf Pride Align grip?
You might think launching a new golf grip is like reinventing the wheel, but this Golf Pride Align grip really has broken the mould. Its key feature is the raised ridge on the back of the grip. By feeling this ridge each time you hold a club, you’ll have a physical aid to your grip position. This will help you achieve more consistent hand placements, which should only lead to more consistent results.

Stuck for space?

If you’re considering a new electric trolley this year there’s no reason to look anywhere else. Motocaddy’s improved range for 2018 offers a choice of two series – S-Series and M-Series – and for those of you with a space restriction like a smaller boot, we think the M-Series is the perfect choice.

Motocaddy M1 PRO
This fantastic model folds down roughly 40% smaller than traditional electric trolleys thanks to its innovative frame design. It’s both small and mighty thanks to nine speed settings and an adjustable distance control so you can send it away. It also boasts a locking base design to stop your bag wobbling and an accessory holder with a USB port.

Motocaddy M3 PRO
This trolley takes the M1 PRO and adds some bells and whistles that we think gadget lovers will really like. You get a colour screen that displays a lost ball timer, round timer, clock and battery meter, plus you can measure your drives and the trolley’s total distance covered.

New: Vokey SM7 wedges

If you're thinking of putting new wedges in your bag for the season ahead one thing is for certain: Vokey's SM7 wedges include every loft and grind you could ask for.

But with countless options available it is so important that you don't buy straight off the shelf, but instead come and see a member of the team for a wedge fitting so that you walk away with wedges that are perfectly suited to your game.

Have a great weekend, Dave
