Captain Campbell

We were lucky enough to hold the Captains Day for Stewart Campbell last Saturday. It was a great success with 2012 people playing in very tough conditions. I would like to congratulate all competitors and on behalf of Stew thank everyone for supporting his day.

The format was a 4-ball team event with 2 scores counting on holes 1-14 then all scores counting on the last 4 holes... Pressure!! Here are the winners

1st - Tony Dean, Martin Wallis, Luke Wallis and Sean White - 108 Points

2nd - Dave Morgan, Jeremy Morgan, Chris Hindle and Louis Hindle (Master Custom Fitter) - 98 Points

3rd - Sam Claridge, Phil Wilkins, Hugh Jenkinson, Simon Hankin - 97 Points

I would just like to say a big thank you to Stew he has been an incredible captain through this very difficult year!

Fitting news

Fit or not to fit?

In the shop, we sometimes get told 'I am not good enough to have a fitting'. I am just going to explain why people with this mentality are the exact people who need fitting the most.

If you think of a tour pro or an extremely good golfer, they will be able to hit a junior club, ladies club and a men's extra stiff shaft pretty much the same as they will be able to adapt their swing to suit the club.

This is not what we want to be doing we need to have a club to fit your swing. This will make golf more enjoyable and also might cut your handicap. Try us I guarantee we will improve your golf to make it more enjoyable.

We also have clubs to fit all budgets, as you know a new latest driver may set you back £400 however we offer fully custom fit driver from only £229.

Ladies Group Coaching

Both Ladies and Seniors group coaching are fully underway and receiving great support each week.

This week the ladies covered how to strike the ball cleanly and get all the weight through it; while the Seniors delved into the short game with specific focus on bunker play (and how not to kill people standing on the far side of the green)!!

Your clothing, our crest

It might be a little cooler now than it was during the recent heatwaves, but it really is perfect conditions to take to the course. If you are looking for something to keep you warm when the temperatures do drop - especially during those chilly evening rounds - we have a beautiful range of Glenmuir clothing available in the pro shop.

Pairing you with your perfect irons

We mentioned last week that you may want one or two hybrids to replace your longer irons because they’re more forgiving. This week, we’re putting irons under the microscope. Ask yourself: How do they slot into my full set of clubs?

You need to be sure that there are no big gaps between your hybrids and irons, as well as your irons and wedges. You want a smooth transition through your bag, with clubs that can get the most out of your game and not punish mishits too much.

Callaway’s brand-new Big Bertha B21 irons are the irons when it comes to forgiveness. With a wide sole and increased offset, it’s so easy to feel confident standing over the ball. The A.I. engineered Flash Face Cup and new Visible Tungsten Energy Core combine for easy launch, faster ball speeds and incredible forgiveness!

Video of the Week

This is a great watch! Join Rory, DJ and Day in this brilliant video from our friends at TaylorMade. The premise is simple: spin the wheel and hit the shot it lands on. Oh, but the players won't know what shot to hit until halfway through their swing! Enjoy.
