Good afternoon golfers we hope everyone is well and enjoying some golf in the sun. We are at Thetford today playing in the last Winter Pro-Am of the series.

The Masters finished on Sunday and it really seemed a walk in the park for Bubba in the end, he’s a great example of someone who enjoys golf, hits big drives and has a great touch around the greens. The best shot of the week in my opinion was his drive down the 13th measuring 367 yards- hitting a fade down the centre of the fairway. Want to hit it longer like Bubba? Book a driver custom fit session, with our wide range of demo clubs and using the Flightscope we will find you extra yards. Click here to book a session.

It was a very busy weekend at the Club for the James Berry Memorial weekend with competitions and matches from Friday to Monday. It was a great weekend raising money for charity, with some great golf being played as well!

The Ladies Cecil Leitch team won their first game of the season beating Kingsthorpe away 5-2. This was a great victory and many thanks to everyone who attended the coaching sessions ready for these games. Best of luck for the upcoming matches!

Last week I mentioned both Adam and I had various competitions we were both playing in. Adam finished 3rd in a Pro Am at Northampton shooting a score of 70 (-2). I was playing a two day event which was Foursomes on the first day at Hunstanton followed by Betterball at Kings Lynn. We shot 31 points followed by 35 points, disappointing and more practise needed! We both have more events coming up so watch this space for results, if you are interested in playing in any Pro Ams, please contact us by clicking here
