Still a chance to grab some bargains…

Despite the price of chocolate bars going back to their full price of 85p and signifying the Mega Sale being over, we still have plenty of items in the sale. All the clothing, shoes and bags are still reduced and we are also reducing all the PING clothing in stock by an extra £5 off the sale price. But keep it quite because I haven’t told Paul I am doing this so be quick because as it will end Sunday 4th August.

Srixon and Cleveland are coming to the club on Friday August 16th and they are looking for members to give their opinion on their products (irons, woods, wedges). If you would like to be part of this then please book a slot in the Pro Shop between 10am-3pm. Contact us here.

Pro's news

Farewell to Tom...

It was sad news in the world of golf seeing Tom Watson walk off the 18th green in Seniors British Open for the last time, what a player, what a swing and what a legend! On a happier note in golf, Langer roared to victory in the Seniors British Open beating Paul Broadhurst by 2 shots. How good is Langer, that is his 11th Senior Major title now, wow!

Over in America, Brooks Koepka continued his fantastic season by blistering past Mcllroy to shoot a bogey free 65. The guy is like machine.

Captain & Pro

A great match against Dave Emberson and Matt Smith on Wednesday, alas we lost one down despite being 7 under better ball! Dave you are on the handicap watch list for sure!!

There are still spaces available for Invitation day on Saturday August 3rd.

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 Mizuno's JPX919 irons could well be the perfect addition to your bag?

“The new stability frame (across all three models) will enhance stability, feel and launch”

Mizuno is known for its remarkable craftsmanship and for producing irons with outstanding feel, and the JPX919 family certainly deliver on this front as well as many others...

“The Hot Metal is definitely the most forgiving and inspires a lot of confidence down by the ball”

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 RB Tour from Mizuno

Fortunately, the clever folks at Mizuno know a thing or two about golf balls, which is why their RB Tour and RB Tour X balls have made such a storm in 2019.

Here's what you can expect from both:

RB Tour - Low driver spin, very soft and great greenside control
RB Tour X - Mid-to-low driver spin for upward attack angles and great greenside control

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

Spotlight | PING Glide 3.0 wedges

Smooth when it's rough

There's no part of your game more important than your wedge play.

If you really want to lower your scores and reach your full potential, improving your short game is key and these beauties from PING will certainly help you on your way - as long as you're fitted for the correct grind and bounce.

The Glide 3.0 produce greater spin, a softer feel and are more forgiving than previous generations. Enough said.

I hope you have a great week.
