Advertise your business in 2019 with our partner scheme Golfers represent a huge opportunity for advertisers, they are, for many businesses, a pre-selected target demographic - Golfers are usually higher earners, professional managers, home owners, prestige car owners - the list goes on & on. Preston GC introduced its partner scheme 4 years ago and it instantly created a lot of interest. In conjunction with new tee furniture which included advertising space, we offered hole cup advertising, driving range bay advert and a designated section within the clubs website. |

We wanted to give our partners exposure at each corner of the club so to give maximum presence. Click here to view. In this section each sponsor has its own business editorial, logo and link to their website. The partner scheme offering is operated upon a 3 year deal and comes with a golfing allowance that out ways the cost of joining the scheme. For 2019 we have a few holes becoming available and if you would like to know more about this opportunity, please speak with club professional Andrew who will be happy to give further details. |
Hatton crumbles It was back to the daily grind for Europe’s Ryder Cup heroes, with Tyrrell Hatton and Tommy Fleetwood both in action at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship. Hatton led in the final round by four strokes heading into the back nine, but a remarkable collapse involving four bogies saw him card a level par 72, allowing Denmark’s Lucas Bjerregarrd to steal victory at St Andrews. Fleetwood shared second with Hatton as a final day 69 left him on 14 under, one stroke behind Bjerregarrd. This week the tour heads to Walton Heath with Justin Rose playing host at the British Masters.
Rule changes As 2019 comes ever closer, so too do the new Rules of Golf which are to be implemented on 1st January 2019. The changes being made are intended to modernise the game, one of which is the dropping procedure. Drops will no longer have to be made from shoulder height – instead, golfers will be able to drop from knee height when taking relief to simplify the dropping process and speed up play.

Sometimes it's nice to reminisce about the good times. When it comes to golf, the days of persimmon woods, small clubheads and hitting balls which were hard as a rock are long gone - but it can help to take a trip down memory lane to remind us of just how much technology has developed, particularly in the case of drivers. |
Time tunnel
Take TaylorMade for example; you might have been lucky enough to own its iconic r7 Quad driver way back in 2004. The r7 was memorable for introducing the then-revolutionary concept of changeable weights in a driver, which was a massive shift from the conventional 'one weight fits all' approach. The r7 Quad is a classic club, and is certainly remembered with fondness. Fast-forward to the present day and TaylorMade has released its most technologically advanced driver to date in the form of the M3. The M3 really shows just how far we've come in terms of moveable weights, with a Y-Track feature that allows golfers to adjust their settings for optimal trajectory, maximum forgiveness, or less spin. So, whilst it is nice to think about your first ever driver, it's probably time to get up to speed with the latest models such as the M3. Who knows? Maybe in another 10 years time, you'll be looking back on the M3 with as much fondness as the r7 Quad! |
