Monthly Medal Inc Anniversary Trophy
First of all, a big well done to everyone who played on Saturday as the weather was awful all day. The wind and rain made the conditions very hard to play golf in, especially as the wind was having such a big effect on the ball. However there was still some great scores. Notably Sam Morley who shot a gross 72, which was remarkable in those conditions, meaning he did win the medal with a nett 68!

Junior Open
We held the Junior Open here on Thursday 8th August and had a great turn out of 50 juniors that entered.
There really were some great scores with everyone playing well. The winner was Zach Little from West Herts Golf Club who shot a gross 68 which was 6 under his handicap. This was a fantastic score and it was so great to see so many Hertfordshire Juniors playing and shooting some fantastic scores.

Captain/Pro match Last week's Captain/Pro was against Ben Armstrong and Alan Craig.
This formidable paid were previous winners so it was always going to be a tough match. However, Captain Rob and I took a commanding lead after 9 holes being 3 up and just about managed to hang on with a fantastic comeback from Ben having three birdies in the last 6 holes.
The winning streak continues looking forward to our next match. |

We are giving a FREE golf bag which is worth £179.99 to anyone that buys a new FW7 trolley. Now you might be asking what is the FW7 trolley, well I shall now explain…
The FW7 is PowaKaddy’s most popular trolley and highest selling trolley. The trolleys host a bunch of features which make this trolley amazing. The full colour 3.5” widescreen display looks great sitting at the front of the trolley, this makes it easy to read and use with lots of functions built in. These functions include, a really cool calorie counter, distance measurement function, the time and many other features. Two of the biggest features of this trolley is that is boasts an incredibly silent motor which allows for a peaceful stroll around the golf course, but also comes with a 3-year warranty allowing for an even better peaceful stress-free walk around the golf course.
For ONLY £579 with a lithium battery an FREE cart bag worth up to £179.99 - it truly is worth looking into if you’re wanting a new trolley. We will have some in the shop soon for you to look at or come speak to us for more information!

It's not always easy to get in the zone or feel completely comfortable over the ball so, when you do, the last thing you need is to look down and be distracted by your shoes. Style always comes down to individual taste, but here are two shoes at either end of the spectrum that catch our eye for different reasons. |
| FootJoy Fury | The eye-catching athletic style of the aptly named Fury offers a fast look when addressing the ball with a full grain leather and engineered mesh upper providing ultimate on-course performance. |
| FootJoy UltraFIT Boa | Classic style meets the perfect fit in these beautiful shoes from FJ. The no-nonsense design at address oozes confidence whilst the Boa Fit System ensures maximum comfort every time. |
|
We have an extensive range of golf shoes available in-store with styles, colours and designs to match everyone's taste. So, be sure to pop in and try on a pair or two for size the next time you're in the market for new shoes.
