Vets news

An update from the Vets...

A very good 6-6 draw was achieved away at Barlaston last week against a tough side on a tough but lovely golf course. All the teams that l have spoken to during matches agree that anything above 4 points away is a fair result.

The home match against Westwood due to be played on the 5th of this month has been rearranged for the 14th August.

Sheets for the July matches will be on the board soon, so watch out for these and enter your name for selection.

At the present time after 5 matches we are 5 points clear at the top of the league, a great position nearly half way through the season, here's hoping we can keep the momentum going.

Enjoy your golf an see you on the course!

Ray Jackson.

A busy time...

Please be aware that the car park will be busier than normal during 6pm and 8pm on Prom nights, we thank you for your co-operation.

Time for a little reflection

Who doesn’t love the month of June? Long evenings, blistering sunshine (might be a little optimistic here) and plenty of opportunities to hit the course. With much of the season left to go and more competitions on the horizon, it’s time to take note of how you’ve been playing so far this year.

Scenario 1

Hopefully, you've been playing regularly to your handicap or, better still, shooting under it. If that’s the case then happy days, keep up the good work!

But we all know there’s room for improvement.

Perhaps you don’t use a particular club as often as you could simply out of a lack of confidence with it? Or maybe you’re struggling with a destructive shot that is impacting your scores?

Scenario 2

On the other hand, you might be struggling to put a good score together no matter what you try.

Some of you may be recalling a lesson you had from several years back or searching the web for a quick-fix only to be suffering further?

Whether you’re in need of lessons, new equipment or a confidence boost, make sure you utilise our professional advice and skill set by speaking to a member of the team in-store.

The results are in...

Early spring is a great time of year at the golf club as the course begins to take shape and the latest golf gear lands in your very own pro shop. Now that we’re fully stocked and more of you are venturing up the club on a weekly basis, we thought we'd treat you to our top three picks in the footwear department for 2019.

FootJoy UltraFIT Boa

A classic style mixes with next generation technology for a shoe that, quite simply, has the lot.

As its name suggests, the UltraFIT Boa is all about finding the perfect fit thanks to its Boa Lacing System, which pulls your foot towards the heel for ultimate stability on every shot.

FootJoy Pro S/L

The best-selling shoe in recent years? This awesome Pro/SL offering, of course.

Not only is it FootJoy's flagship shoe that is worn by a host of Tour players, but it is one of the best spikeless offerings we've ever had in-store.

FootJoy Fury

The Fury takes top spot when it comes to athletic styling, but there's a lot more than just looks.

Two densities of foam form the footbed which moulds to your feet over time, providing a custom fit that is supremely comfortable on long rounds.

Spotlight: PING's latest driver

The G410 range, which was released at the beginning of 2019, is seriously impressive and has resulted in some very happy golfers at the club.

Well, to sit alongside the G410 Plus and G410 SFT drivers, PING has just released the G410 LST, which stands for Low Spin Technology.

Which of these three drivers is best for you? Let's find out during a one-to-one custom fit session.

Video of the Week

Who deserves to be referred to as golf's G.O.A.T (Greatest Of All Time)? For many, it boils down to two individuals: Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus.

Have a great weekend, Dan
