Your one-stop-shop...

Last week I mentioned a list of services we provide.

One of those was "If we don't have it, we can get it." There are 2 main reasons for this...

Firstly, by being part of a group called Foremost, I have access to a service called "Singles Sevice" allowing me to source products that I don't stock and sell them at a competitive rate.

Secondly, I have many contacts within the industry and through these contacts can again source products that I don't stock. It isn't possible to stock every brand out there but I do have access to almost all of them.

As always I appreciate your support and only look to have the opportunity to be able to match or beat a price for any product you are looking for.

Callaway Fitting Day

An event not to be missed...

On Friday 24th July we have a Callaway Fitting Day holding 30-minute appointments available from 2pm until 5.30pm. Currently, I have 4 appointments left so if you would like a spot contact the Pro Shop.

On the day there will be the full line up of 2020 Mavrik products available to try. The Mavrik Driver has been very popular so far this season during Fittings with either Connor or myself, so don't miss out!!

Golf on Tour

A fantastic performance

Certain rounds make us mere mortals say “Wow!”.

Collin Morikawa had one of those rounds on Sunday. Justin Thomas really should have won the tournament - and when you sink a glorious putt from 50-plus feet for birdie in a playoff it’d be understandable to celebrate as you have - but, as I said, Morikawa had a “Wow!” round.

This was Morikawa's second PGA Tour victory. That might not sound too impressive as a standalone statement, but it's one more than the number of cuts he's missed so far in his youthful career. Just let that sink in for a minute.

It goes to show how consistent the top players are. So, rather than trying to hit the ball further, maybe we should all be striving for more consistency in our game? Share your thoughts with us using the button below.

Being a single-figure golfer, there's a good chance that at least one club in your bag has been fitted to suit your swing. We're big advocates of custom fitting when it comes to purchasing new clubs and would encourage you to go through the process again if you're considering an upgrade to your set.

Changes over time

Whilst many of you have been custom fitted before, your specs are likely to alter over time as your swing changes.

Testing different clubs

This is the best bit about the fitting experience - trying out the latest products from multiple brand until you find the one you prefer.

Finding you the right club

It's the small tweaks that can make all the difference, something we'll do with you to ensure you walk away happy.

You ARE good enough

A recent survey highlighted that nearly a quarter of golfers who haven’t been custom fitted before believe that they are not good enough to go through the fitting process. We're incredibly passionate about finding the best clubs for your game - no matter your golfing ability or experience - and an enjoyable fitting experience is the most effective way to do this and help you improve as a golfer.

Consistency is key

It’s nice to be able to hit the ball further and more accurately, and a custom fitting will help with that, but the main thing is to be more consistent so that your bad shots are few and far between.

Testing different clubs

This is the most enjoyable part for any golfer - trying out the latest equipment from different brands. It's not just about what performs best, but also about what you prefer in both looks and feel.

Finding you the right club

Once we have a club that you particularly like, we'll look at the finer details with you so it's perfectly set-up for your game. We appreciate it's a big purchase, so we want to ensure you walk away happy.

Making life easier off the tee

The average golfer will use their driver between 10-13 times per round. That means between 50-75% of holes are relying on that one club for a good start. But how do you ensure you get that good start?

Finding the right driver

First things first, if you want to find the fairway with more regularity then you need to feel comfortable with your driver. This game is made so much easier when we're confident in playing the shot at hand.

TaylorMade SIM drivers

When it comes to the TaylorMade SIM drivers, we will always be able to find you the perfect driver to enhance your game. Our favourite is the SIM Max, which is designed for straighter, more forgiving ball flights.

Video of the Week

Products are packed full of technology to help us play better golf, but we don't often get to see it. This is why we love Callaway's Triple Track Technology; it's visible and easy to understand. The question is: does it work? Well, watch our video to find out how we got on!

I hope you enjoyed the newsletter. If you have any thoughts or queries please contact me in the golf shop.
