4 Balls?

We are very happy to announce you can now play in up to 4 balls out on the golf course. This is great news as it enables many more people to play throughout each day. You must ensure however that social distancing of 2 meters is still paid attention to and followed.

Competitions

Next Wednesday the 10th we hope to be re-introducing the mid-week stableford. If you book into your normal tee times like you have been doing for the last couple of weeks that will be perfect.

You don’t have a play in the competition but if you do want to then you will need to sign in and pay before you go out to play. Entry will be the normal £3 with the added option of the 2’s sweep for £3 extra.

Golf's greatest comebacks

Everyone loves a comeback. Europe's remarkable victory in last year's Solheim Cup immediately springs to mind.

But, as much as we love watching it happen at the time, can you remember the details? Our monthly quiz for June will test your knowledge in this department.

If anything, it's a great excuse to relive some of golf's most memorable moments.

Good luck!

Thoughts for the course

Chipping is a fine art. It requires precision and skill, both of which may need sharpening after a few months away from the golf course. No shame in that! So, here are a couple of points to remember.

Landing Spots

Don’t focus on the hole. Instead, pick out a spot – a patch of grass on the green – to land your ball on. Consider how the slope and speed of the green, the lie of the ball and the club you choose may affect where the ball finishes after landing.

Practise makes perfect

When on the chipping green, place a towel on your landing spot (as seen in the above image) and take aim. As you get the hang of it, you can fold the towel to give yourself a smaller, more challenging target to work with.

Right tools for the job

Carrying on from our story above, one of the great things about chipping is that there are so many different ways you can play a shot. From high-lofted flop shots to simple bump-and-runs, the choice is yours!

The choice is yours

Vokey SM8 wedges

Whichever shot you choose, you’ll need wedges in your bag that help you execute it.

That’s where the versatile Titleist Vokey SM8 wedges come into play. With six different grind options and a vast array of loft & bounce combinations, Titleist’s Vokey SM8 wedges cover all your short-game needs. They're also available in three stunning finishes, which you can see above.
