Competition news

Bank Holiday Roll up

Last Saturday saw 42 people compete in the Roll-up. With great weather, scoring conditions were ideal. Josh Myford posted a fine 36 points only to be pipped by Niall Higgins who managed 39 points off 11.

Niall was ecstatic with what he thought was enough for the victory, until Alfie Hickman returned his best score of the year, a fine 40 points playing off 2, gross 67 and the win. Great playing Alf! The yellow tees must suit you…

New arrivals and offers

Callaway XR Speed

We have just received the new Callaway XR Speed driver and fairway woods. We have demos available to try, so come and give their new technology a go.

The carbon composite crown on the XR Speed driver is 45 per cent lighter than the titanium crown on the previous XR 16 model, which significantly improves forgiveness with increased distance.

If you would like to reserve a driver or fairway to take out on the course to try then click here.

Summer clothing

The new range of Hugo Boss is in stock. We have new shirts and jumpers available, in new designs and vibrant colours for the Summer season. The same apparel is worn by touring professional Henrik Stenson.

A new selection of Under Armour clothing has arrived in store with a wide variety of styles and colours to choose from, you won’t be disappointed.

Battery Trade-In ends this Sunday

If you haven't taken advantage of this promotion yet then you only have a few days left to get £25 OFF a new Lithium battery when you trade-in your old battery. Just to remind you, Lithium batteries charge quicker, last longer and work out far cheaper in the long run than standard Lead Acid alternatives. What are you waiting for?

Perfect for cooler rounds

Yes, we've enjoyed a record-breaking Early May Bank Holiday weekend without a sweater in sight, but the reality is temperatures will soon get a little cooler over the coming days. To combat the chill whilst on the course, especially early mornings or late evenings, consider a ProQuip quilted windproof, which provide lightweight warmth whilst blocking out any wind.

Trust = Power

Let’s face it: we all want to hit the ball further. Being able to hit longer drives gives you less club into the green, making everything that little bit easier. There are many ways you can try and generate more power during your swing, and nearly all of them start from the ground up.

Trust your footwear
Despite his small frame, tour star Rickie Fowler is renowned for his power. As you can see in the three images above, he pushes off from his right foot through impact and relies on great grip and stability to ensure the power his body is creating doesn’t come at the cost of control.

Having a strong base is something we should all aspire for. The Under Armour Spieth 2 can help you do this thanks to its unique Rotational Resistance cleats that will give you traction in every direction across all terrains.

Replace your long irons

We want to make this game as easy and as enjoyable as possible for you, so if we had one piece of advice for you it would be to replace your long irons. The further up your irons you go the harder they become to hit, which is why golf brands have a range of fantastic alternative options for you to try…

Powerful and forgiving
Do you struggle with distance and accuracy with your long irons? This PING G400 hybrid can offer you lots of forgiveness on heel or toe strikes. Its thin face and cascading sole also increases flexing for a higher launch with fast ball speeds, making it a great option off the tee and into long par-4s.

Shot shaping
If you’ve always found irons easier to hit than woods, this workable PING G400 Crossover utility iron offers all the benefits of a driving iron but with lots of modern distance and forgiveness. The result is a confidence-inspiring club you can use to hit long and accurate tee shots, but that’s also easier to launch than your long irons off the deck.

Just landed | XR Speed

Callaway has dominated the driver market over the past 12 months with Rogue following Epic as outstanding offerings for those golfers seeking a premium driver.

But we know that some of you want something a little cheaper that still offers fantastic performance, and this is where the XR Speed comes in. There are only two things that you need to know about this driver: exceptional ball speed and improved forgiveness.
