Winter rules!

One of the main changes to the winter rules for this year is that mats are only to be used from the fairway. In previous years they have been used in first cut. When the greenkeeping team came back from lockdown the decision was made to do away with a first cut and go from fairway to rough and beyond that a longer rough that is mostly left. The reason for this is that with only one member of staff working the time to change the height of the blades and change machinery wouldn't have been cost/time efficient. A full list of the winter rules is on the pro shop door and also on the noticeboard in the clubhouse.

What a view!

Studio update

Things are progressing well with the studio, last Saturday the bar and double doors were covered over. The room is due to be painted this week, new lighting then has to be installed. I am now only waiting on one final delivery, of the wall and ceilling noise and protection panels! Then the room can be put together and the final touches applied! The final piece of the jigsaw will be the studio signage, which Kiellor Graphics are putting together for me. All going to plan I will hopefully be up and running in the next two to three weeks!

No two golfers are the same!

I have often mentioned in my newsletter the importance of custom fitting and this week I am beating the same drum.

I would like you to think back on the last time you purchased a new car!

Did you adjust the seat? Did you adjust the mirrors? Did you adjust the steering wheel? The answer to all of these questions will almost always be yes! You want your car to suit you. So why would golf clubs be any different?

Length, lie angle, shaft, grip can all be tailored to suit YOU, and the beauty of it is that there is very rarely any additional cost.

Once the studio is up and running it will be even easier for me to explain and demonstrate the benefits of custom fitting. Roll on 2021!

Golf on Tour

Pederson's clean sweep

A new, unique golf tournament is always something to celebrate, but nobody was celebrating the inaugural Saudi Ladies Team International more than Denmark’s Emily Kristine Pederson.

Following on from a playoff win over Georgia Hall at the previous week’s Aramco Saudi Ladies International (also a first-time event), Pederson claimed both the individual and team titles for a three-trophy ‘Saudi Sweep’ over two weeks. Not bad going, eh?

With these exciting new tournaments and innovations in the world of golf - in addition to what's set to be a fantastic 2021 with the Solheim Cup and Ryder Cup - what better time to get in touch and discuss some coaching packages ahead of next year?

Under Armour Autumn Winter Clothing Collection

Going the distance

It’s fairly well-documented that your golf balls won’t travel as far in cold weather and will stop faster on soft ground (it’s a good excuse, at least!). However, there are solutions to help get your ball as far down the hole as possible this winter.

Callaway Supersoft golf balls

One solution is golf balls that are designed for maximum distance, such as the Callaway Supersoft or Chrome Soft balls. The Supersoft balls have an ultra-low compression core, helping them fly further down the fairway, and are available in green, orange and pink, as well as the traditional white.

Callaway Chrome Soft Truvis golf balls

If you want to take advantage of the balls stopping faster on softer greens, the Callaway Chrome Soft and Chrome Soft X golf balls are the ideal options thanks to a thin urethane cover. The Truvis version is proven to improve your focus, are much easier to keep track of in the air and find in the rough (it happens to the best of us!).
