Pro-AM success

A little quieter this week due to Maintanence Week but still plenty to report, as the club held it annual Pro-AM on Friday. A fantastic response from the members saw 31 teams take part alongside some of the best professionals in the South of England, Players such as Former PGA Champion Simon Khan, US and European Seniors Tour player Andrew Raitt, three time Challenge Tour winner Rob Coles, and former European Tour players Chris Gane and Andrew Butterfield all turned out to play.

All of the pros found the course a tough test, as 67 was the best score returned, this was a 4 way tie between Rob Coles, Richard Wallis, Jordan Godwin and Scott Winyard.

The team event was also a tie with a stableford score of 87 points, led by Professional James Ford, with James Bishop, Neil Williams and Rob Cullum took the top spot, winning Vokey SM8 wedges, second place, losing out on countback was the team of Adam Grainger, Dave Paterson, Chris Gadd with team Professional Jordan Godwin winning FJ Shoes, third place went to Jason French, Mark French and Ian Hall with profesional Max Brackley who with two holes to play sat at -16 only to collapse spectacularly on 17 to finsh two shots behind, they win FJ Chillout tops and in 4th was the team of Dave Roberts, Gary Westbrook, Paul Taylor and Profesional Charlie Willson, they won Oscar Jacobson shirts.

Thankyou to all the support from all who helped the day run smoothly, a special mention to Fred Foster who supplied bananas to all the players courtesy of Turnips at Borough Market.

Golf on Tour

DJ wins big

How does a $15 million payday sound to you? For playing golf?

Dustin Johnson finally achieved one of the few things missing from his CV on Monday evening when he stepped off the 18th green at East Lake GC. Sadly, there were no fans to cheer him on, but DJ won the TOUR Championship and, as a result, the season-long FedEx Cup - the PGA Tour's order of merit.

If ever there was a deserving winner, it’s a man who finished the season T2-1-2-1; a run that started at the PGA Championship. Seeing DJ back to his best makes for beautiful viewing. If you’d like to give your playing partners some better viewing on the course, why not book in for a lesson with a member of the team?

Try something new this week

There's a new ball in town

As its name suggests, this ball is all about delivering maximum speed on full swing shots. What does that mean for your game? Longer carries and added distance without needing to hit the ball any harder.

But it's not all about speed as this new ball provides a penetrating flight off the tee as well as lots of spin and control around the greens. It really is a fantastic all-round package.

Plus, it comes in at a great price point! Pop by the pro shop if you want to give these a try.

Wedges that work for you

Over the past few weeks, we've worked our way through the bag, from hybrids to irons and now to wedges. Each time we've been looking at what we want from each club and how it fits into our bag. So, how well do your wedges compliment the rest of your set?

PING Glide 3.0 wedges

Our quest to hit the ball further has knock-on effects throughout the bag. It can only be a good thing if you're hitting your irons one or two clubs longer than previously, but it also means that the distance gap to your wedges gets bigger.

Our advice? Make sure you have three or four wedges in your bag that flow seamlessly from your irons. This is the part of the game where your score is made.

If you need to upgrade your wedges, the PING Glide 3.0 wedges boast wheel-cut grooves that are sharper for more contact with the ball at impact. This provides added spin, feel and control to your shots around the green.

You can learn more about these wedges by clicking the button below or give us a call on 02086501663 if you want to give them a try.

Make a change

When it comes to smashing one off the tee, there’s always a bit of push-and-pull between striking one as far as you can and simply not sending it out of bounds. For that reason, we could all do with a little forgiveness in a driver.

Can you afford to take the risk?

The ideal answer would be “What risk?”, but we’ll stay in the real world for a moment. Ultimately, you want a driver that reduces the risk of missing the fairway and makes the reward a lot more appealing.

Try Callaway's Big Bertha B21 driver

This brand-new and totally revolutionary driver gives us the best of both worlds. It's long but also ultra-forgiving, making it easier for golfers of all swing speeds to hit more consistent drives off the tee.

If you struggle with a slice (left-to-right shot shape) off the tee, we think the Big Bertha B21 driver is going to be the perfect option for you. Pop by the shop if you want to give it a try.
