Hello Golfers,

Welcome to my first weekly newsletter of the year & decade. I hope everyone had a good new year and everyone is looking forward to the forthcoming 2020 season.

Enjoy the read.

Pro's news

Look out for yours

As we start to look forward, it is also a time to look back on 2019.

Thank you to everyone who completed my survey. All your results have now been collated and I am shifting through the responses and about to get in touch with you to work on what you have highlighted.

Look out for special emails coming from me sent specifically to you as per your survey responses.

John's Australian adventure

Many of you have been in touch to ask how John’s adventure to Australia is going.

Well the good news is that John arrived safe and well on Boxing Day after a 26 hour flight. He has been golfing. enjoying the warm temperatures and visiting many local attractions. I have been in touch through Facebook nearly every day and all is well.

Shop news

I've got some good news!

Going into 2020, many of you have commented on the shop and apparent lack of stock.

Well this is good news as it means after 12 years I may just be starting to get my stock rotation under control and in a good place for all the new arrivals. After some deliberation and planning I have decided to go with the following brands in 2020:

Hardware - Callaway & PING
Apparel - Oscar Jacobsen, Under Armour & Galvin Green
Logo Apparel - Glenmuir & Sunderland
Trolley - Motocaddy & Powakaddy
Ball - Callaway, Srixon, Wilson Staff & Titleist
Bags - Callaway, Motocaddy & PING
Measuring - Bushnell & Garmin
Footwear - FootJoy & Under Armour

Along with all these major brands, through my Click & Collect service you are able to access everything else.

Please take some time to browse my website here and order what you need.

Ready. Set. Go.

Hands up if you’re still feeling stuffed from the excessive (but highly enjoyable) eating over the festive period...

We’re not going to ask anything too strenuous of you this week as we ease our way into the new year so don’t worry! Instead, take a quick look at the image below and see if any of it looks familiar to you.

With a new season upon us and plenty of new products arriving in your local pro shop over the next few months (more on this in the coming weeks), now’s the perfect time to wave goodbye to the old tatty golf shoes, the worn-out gloves in a pile at the bottom of your bag, and the golf balls with more scuff marks than dimples!

If you’re the type of golfer who keeps on top of their equipment then we salute you but if any of the above rings true, pop by the shop this weekend and give your stuff a winter MOT. We’re always here to help.

A bag for life

Following on from our article above, how many things are you trying to jam into your golf bag before every round? For us, a golf bag is so much more than something to lug your clubs around in; instead, it’s an extension of your locker with a place for everything you might need out on the course.

From lucky charms to hand cream, you name it and there’s a good chance a pro has carried it in their bag – well, their caddy to be more precise!

Whilst a tour bag might not be a realistic option for most club golfers, TaylorMade’s Deluxe cart bag (pictured above) is one that we 100% recommend for anyone wanting a bit more space to house their belongings.

Come down to the pro shop to take a closer look and, whilst you’re here, take a look at the other bags (both stand and cart) that we have available.

PING's G410 Plus driver

Unfortunately, we all miss the fairway from time-to-time (some of us more than others) but the question we'd like to ask you is:

Are you giving yourself the best chance of finding the short stuff?

What we love most about PING's G410 Plus driver is that we can move the weight into a draw, fade or neutral setting to help you fight your common miss. So, if you have a slice we can put this into a draw setting for you to promote a right-to-left ball flight.

Video of the Week

To kick start 2020, here's a hilarious video of some of your favourite golfers being impersonated by one of the best in the business. We promise it'll have you in stitches!

I hope you enjoyed this week's newsletter. As always, if you have anything that you'd like to contribute please speak to one of the pro shop team. I'll see you at the club over the coming days.
