Hello golfers, 

I'll start with the BIG news of the week...Today I saw a ball actually bounce on the driving range! 

Thank you for you continued understanding regarding collections and ball dispensing. This Sunday the range will close until noon whilst we operate a group pick. Are you available to help?

Hopefully now it won't be long and we can get the outfield looking tip top again. 


 

Tee Markers

What a great week we have had 

As the season draws closer it is great to see more and more of you sharpening up your game ahead of the season. This week I have really busy with lessons and FlightScope club fitting with some awesome progress and results achieved! 

Particular mention to Martin Banks for the steps he made whilst combining a FlightScope driver fitting with some advice on how enhance his range of movements with the backswing. Martin opted for the NEW Callaway XR16 Driver and new swing thought relating to "Leg Seperation" offered up significant changes to his ball flight and distance!

Also Kevin Holderness is taking this golfing year very seriously so felt a driver fitting was worth exploring. A Callaway FT-5 is his current driver. His FlightScope numbers with his driver showed 183yard carry with run out to 219, 14.1 degree launch angle and 3455rpm spin. The choice of driver that suited Kevin was a PING G Series, 10 degree -0.6 loft SFTec which delivered a 217yard carry with run out to 247, a 13.8 degree launch angle and spin rate of 1700.

Other ongoing success stories include Dave Winder, Gerry Green, Kenny Woodfine, Paul Walmsley and Paul "Heavy Breathing" Metcalf.

Odyssey Putters

Did you know, if it wasn't for Nick Faldo, Odyssey would never have become the leading putter of today!

Back in the 90's Faldo was suffering with his putting and like the tinkering golfer does he bagged a new putter. At the time, an unknown brand called Odyssey and his was a mallet head called Rossie Dual Force. Winning the Masters that weekend triggered a sales boom that launched Odyssey into the golfing world.

We now have the NEW White Hot putters in store and they feel amazing. Odyssey say "Soft White Hot Feel With Better Roll Odyssey has the most putter wins on Tour, it's the #1 Putter in Golf."

The new design, face insert helps to get the ball rolling faster for more accurate putts. Bring in your putter and test it against these new putters. We even have a demo version that you can take out onto the course.
