Getting Long In His Old Age Wow Wow Wow, boy did we have some fun with this fitting. This was one of those sessions that both the golfer and the fitter dream about. Since when does a golfer who is getting older gain 30 yards at the drop of a hat? Well, that would be one who consults his pro team and enters into a journey of advice and correct club fitting. Keith had 2 sessions of 1 hour each to get to the point where a driver should outstanding changes. How much did the 2 hours cost him? Nothing, we do that for FREE. |
|
You can see all the numbers below: - Club speed is up
- Ball speed is up
- Spin rate is down
- Accuracy improved
- Distance is up (lots)
Well done Keith, we are delighted for you and a big thank you for choosing your pro team to help you with you swing and equipment. Awesome! Click here and get in touch if you would like to book a fitting. |

Holmes brings it home J.B. Holmes had to master the cold and windy weather whilst navigating 33-holes of golf on a treacherous Sunday to win the Genesis Open over the weekend. The tournament looked like it belonged to Ryder Cup star Justin Thomas after the American had built up a four-shot lead through 54-holes. Three bogeys in his first five holes soon wiped out Thomas’ advantage and let Holmes through to secure victory by a single shot - despite a brutal three-putt from inside four-feet at the 11th. Rory McIlroy was on form once again with a top-five finish, whilst Tiger Woods produced the shot of the day when he holed his bunker try at the 16th to rapturous applause. Holmes showed brilliant resilience to stay on top of his game and overcome the tricky conditions in California, something which we could all learn a thing or two from when the going gets tough. The mental side of the game might not be as glamorous as a textbook swing or new equipment, but is definitely just as important and shouldn't be overlooked if you want to lower your handicap in 2019. Get in touch here. |
We all love new golf equipment – be it balls, clubs or shoes; there’s nothing like stepping out onto the course knowing that everything in your bag is in pristine condition. Except, for the majority of golfers, there’s always one thing which is often forgotten about... |
| How old are your grips? |
| Losing control during your swing? |
|
If you pulled a club out of your bag now, what state would your grips be in? You’ll probably notice that they’re at the very least losing some of the tackiness they once had or, in the worst cases, worn away so badly that they’re completely unrecognizable - a clear sign they need to be replaced. The benefits to getting your clubs regripped are huge, and they can even improve your performance. Take the ALIGN grips from Golf Pride; these have a raised edge on the back (red part of grip seen here) to perfect your hand placement every time. |
|
As you can see, we're currently running a promotion where you can get your 7-iron regripped for FREE; all you need to do is pop in-store and decide which of these grips you want to try out. |
