Boditrak pressure mat now at Peterborough Milton

We will always strive to improve the facilities and service we offer and we have an exciting new coaching tool, a Boditrak pressure mat. The Boditrak is a pressure mat which monitors real-time balance and vertical forces throughout the swing. It can be used for all shots and lies, and measures things the eyes simply can’t see. Pressure mats are used by the leading coaches in the world and will be an invaluable tool for our ‘coaching armoury’.

Boditrak lessons assessments will be available from 1st May, each Boditrak assessment will last 90 minutes. We have a launch price of £60 (normal price £80) with limited spaces available. If you would like to book, please contact us ASAP. Please note once you have had the initial assessment the Boditrak will be available for you to use in your lesson packages.

Course news

It’s amazing what a few dry days can do!

We have had a few (mainly) dry days, and the whole course is in great condition. The drier weather allowed Steven and his team to double cut the greens, and they have been running at over 9.5 on the stimpmeter all week! As well as being quick, they are running true.

Let’s make sure we are all doing ‘our bit’ by repairing ours and others pitch marks.

Competition news

Scratch League 2018 - Overstone 7.5 vs Milton 0.5

Match report from Martin Herson:

Well we knew this first game was going to be tough, but not this tough!! A combined handicap, for an 8 man team, of 19 for Milton against 8 for Overstone, on their course, suggested we were up against it and so it proved.

The half came from Tom Burgh who battled back from 2 down with 3 to play and could have actually got a full point had the final putt not performed a 360 and stayed out!

Special mention to Charlie Armitage who answered a very late call up after a drop out late Friday evening. Great experience for him and he applied himself really well against an experienced opponent.

Right game gone, forget it and onto the next, Kingsthorpe away. Bouncebackability!

Urethane cover? So what...

A common phrase we hear here in the shop is: “It’s round and white, it can’t be that different”. The truth is that every single golf ball is unique in some way – whether it’s the ball’s core, layers or dimple pattern – but there is one thing that all premium balls have in common…

Try Urethane with the Chrome Soft
Like all tour-level golf balls, the Callaway Chrome Soft boasts a Urethane cover, which sets the bar for cover materials.

Urethane – a soft and flexible polymer – will give you the highest possible spin rates combined with the best feel; benefits you will really notice when hitting chip and pitch shots.

However, if you like to play lower flighted chip-and-runs you might prefer other options in Callaway’s range that are made with Tri-onomer covers. While this type of cover doesn’t generate as much spin, it is slightly more durable and offers a cheaper alternative.

As you can see on these 50-yard pitch shots, the extra spin from the Urethane cover ball on the right helps it to stop much quicker than the Ionomer cover ball on the left, which rolls out on landing.

Motocaddy: S or M?

Buying an electric trolley is a serious purchase, so it pays to speak to a member of our team about which option would best suit your needs and preferences. To help set you on your way, here’s a breakdown of the key differences between Motocaddy’s S and M series:

M-Series

S-Series

Which trolley is best for you?
The fundamental difference between these two popular ranges is that the Motocaddy M-Series folds 40% smaller, making it the perfect choice for anyone who has space restrictions such as a smaller boot. That being said, the Motocaddy S-Series models offer some smart technology options, like GPS yardages in the S5 CONNECT model and remote control functionality in the S7 REMOTE trolley.

Love a flop shot?

If you’re the type of golfer who likes to hit lots of open-faced chip and lob shots, TaylorMade’s latest addition to the wedge range is the perfect option for you.

The Hi-Toe wedge, which is only available in 58, 60 and 64 degrees, has an expanded toe area that helps aid control on open-faced shots and full-width grooves that deliver high spin across the entire face.
