Paul Sherman

Hello Golfers,

Welcome to another edition of our newsletter, a good week at the Club with the weather very much still on our side. In this week’s mail we have the recent results from the November Stableford and Ladies Stableford, I report back from a recent Captain & Pro match, and we have a new putter from PING. Enjoy the read!

Competition news

November Stableford

A full field of 115 players took part, no last minute injuries this week as the sun was shining……which also meant the scoring was very good. Barry Byers sat in pole position for most of the day with a fine 38 points, and looked to be the best score of the day until one of the last groups of the day, Jake Capewell, returned 40 points to steal the spoils.

Division 1
1st - J Capewell = 40 points
2nd - B Byers = 38 points
3rd - M Haffenden = 36 points

Division 2
1st - G Pestill = 37 points
2nd - M Fletcher = 36 points

Ladies Stableford

A field of 33 ladies took to the course on Tuesday for their weekly event. Blustery conditions made for a tricky day of scoring but Sue Tester led the way in Division 1 with 33 points, one point clear of Ann Greatorex and 2 points clear of last week’s runaway winner, Lita Landi. Division 2 was won by Janice Pottage with 31 points, one point ahead of Sharon Jagger and Kiran Bowry, both on 31 points.

Pro's news

Captain & Pro

Bernie and I played our second game of the campaign on Sunday against Dave and Brian Paterson, the sun was shining and even Dave wore his shorts! We were off to a particularly slow start as Dave made 5/4 at 1st and a 4/3 at 4 to go 2up, we pulled one back at 6, Dave rattled a putt in at 7 for a sneaky half, my 3 at 8 also made a half and we also halved 9 to be 1 down at the turn.

Dave makes 3/2 at 10, but my 4 at 11 took us back to 1 down as we crossed the road, we had to stop the traffic in case Bernie and Brian turned up. A half at 12 but wins for Dave at 13 and Brian at 14 saw us 3 down, we finally surrendered gracefully on 16....fortunately for Bernie, Chelsea won that afternoon!

Electric dreams

Winter golf can be very enjoyable if you're fully prepared, but a thing of nightmares if you're not. We know many of you use a Motocaddy electric trolley to transport your bag around the course, but do you have the correct winter accessories attached to get you through your round?

Deluxe Trolley Mittens

Designed to fit any Motocaddy trolley, these are perfect for any golfer whose hands suffer during the winter. As well as providing maximum warmth, these fleece-lined mittens also improve your trolley's control across any slippery surface you might happen to come across.

Hedgehog Winter Wheels

If you play a lot of golf during the winter - either here or at another club - the chances are you'll be asked to use 'winter wheels' on your trolley to help protect the course. They come with an anti-skid tread design, and are designed to reduce turf drag in wet ground conditions.

Universal Umbrella Holder

We all know how frustrating and time-consuming it can be putting your umbrella up and down between shots. With this umbrella holder from Motocaddy, you'll be able to keep yours up for the whole round - just make sure you've got an accessory station if you have a new M-Series trolley.

What happens when you give four PGA Tour players the day off and leave them on a golf course? It involves blindfolds, inflatables and baseball bats.
