Club news

Buggy theft

Unfortunately due to having one of our buggies stolen on Sunday night, the latest anyone will be able to hire one of our buggies is 1.30pm as this gives us sufficient time to lock them away securely before we close at 6pm. We apologise for any inconvenience caused but this is unavoidable.

If anyone hears of a buggy for sale similar to the one below, please let us know as we can match serial and engine numbers.

Fitting news

Titleist fitting

On Wednesday we had our Titleist TS launch event, which due to a couple of last minute cancellations, we had just four golfers coming to test the new Titleist TS range. This is a range we are very excited about and has had a great take up on tour, initial feedback from those who have hit it is really positive and if you are looking to give it a go - it is available for fitting NOW and we have also confirmed the date of our next Titleist fitting on Friday 19th October.

If you want to see if the Titleist TS range can help you hit better drives then contact us here.

In your sight

Sightlines on putters might seem like a nice design, but they are there for a reason as they help you aim your putts more accurately, and help you centre the ball on your putter. But with so many different styles, it can be hard to know which one will aid you the most.

It’s up to you
Odyssey’s Red Ball putter features some of the most sophisticated alignment technology on the market.

The innovative Red Ball in the scope of the putter allows you to consistently get into the correct set-up position over the ball. Add Odyssey's Versa high contrast technology that helps you align the putter better, and this putter is going to be very helpful for a lot of golfers.

Something different
Alternatively, you might be a fan of Odyssey's O-Works Marxman Red putter, which is also available in a black finish.

If you have alignment issues with your putting then this model has been designed specifically for golfers like you, with a full-length alignment aid extending right to the back edge of the putter for improved performance.

Having a ball

When you’re watching the pros you’ll often see them hitting shots with amazing distance off the tee, along with plenty of spin from around the green. The way they strike the ball helps achieve this, but the ball itself is a crucial component of their game.

TaylorMade TP5 and TP5x

Here are two great options worth trying for a round or two. If you want a lower spinning and higher launching ball off the tee, the TP5x is for you. If you're after a softer feeling ball with a lower trajectory then you need to try TaylorMade's TP5 model.

TaylorMade Project (s)

The Project (s) is new for 2018 and is all about speed, which relates to distance. Still offering incredibly soft feel, the Project (s) delivers low driver spin for signficantly longer drives. What's more, it's available in white, yellow and orange.

Video of the Week

If you're considering a new driver in 2018, three drivers that will definitely be on your radar are Callaway's Rogue and TaylorMade's M3 and M4, but which one came out on top in our testing?

Have a great weekend, happy golfing!
