Hello Golfers,

Welcome to another exciting edition of the weekly newsletter bringing you all of the latest goings-on from around the club.

Enjoy this week's read.

Shop news

Proquip

We have the new Pro-flex Evo range of waterproofs and jackets from Proquip in store. The waterproofs provide a lightweight material with 4-way stretch which makes them incredibly comfortable for playing golf in and a 3-year waterproof guarantee.

The full suit is available for only £189.

Get with the times

If you're not using a Lithium battery with your electric trolley then why not? They charge quicker, last longer and work out far cheaper in the long run than standard Lead Acid alternatives. Right now we're offering you £25 when you trade-in your old battery against a new Lithium one - a fantastic opportunity to save yourself some money.

Competition news

Monthly Medal Competition

For the first time, I’m going to run a season long monthly medal competition. The qualifying medals will be the April, May, June, July, August & September medals. The players with the best 2 nett scores from A, B & C Divisions will qualify for a day out at Ladybank Golf Club, with myself making up the fourball. The round is currently scheduled for Friday 21st September and will include lunch. The player with the lowest aggregate score out the 3 qualifiers will also receive a dozen Titleist Pro V1 golf balls and 2 leather Mizuno gloves.

The competition is £5 to enter, and you must enter before your first Monthly Medal round if you wish to participate.
Your scores will count towards the division that you start the season in i.e. if you start the season at 13 and then reduce your handicap to 12, your qualifying scores will still count towards B Division.

Bonus Ball

The bonus ball sheets were won by Eli Urquhart & Stevie Stewart - £42.50 shop credit

Every Saturday, the bonus ball sells out before 10.30am, but I don’t have enough demand to sell out 2 sheets. Therefore, I’m going to start running a midweek bonus ball sheet & also a weekend bonus ball sheet. These will run completely separately, and the winner will win the credit on the sheet that their name appears on, instead of combining the 2 sheets and splitting it.

No penalty

Golf can be a frustrating game at the best of times, but incurring a penalty stroke when you’ve accidentally done something wrong seems very unfair, especially when that one stroke could be the difference between getting a handicap cut or not.

Current Rules
Under the current Rules of Golf, if you accidentally nudge your ball while addressing it you incur a one-stroke penalty and must replace it (18-2). The only exception relates to if it is accidentally moved in the process of marking it. In this case, it must be replaced and there is no penalty (20-1).

New Rules from 2019
The new proposed rule (13.1c) states there will no longer be a penalty for accidentally causing your ball to move on the green and you must replace it on its original spot.

Let us make it simple for you

We pride ourselves on being the only place you need to go for your golfing needs, which is especially true for golf balls. But we also realise that because we offer a wide range, it can be hard to know which model is right for your game.

Balanced performance

This Wilson Staff DX3 Urethane ball is super soft off the face thanks to its 35 compression. It also offers impressive spin control and feedback from its urethane cover. Despite this, it doesn’t compromise on delivering distance or iron control thanks to a premium three-piece design at a not so premium price point.

High spin, great value

We think the new Wilson Staff DX3 Soft Spin is a fantastic option, with its lower compression core able to generate more distance for those of you with moderate swing speeds. The three-piece DX3 Soft Spin produces increased spin on approach shots, whilst reducing long game spin for straighter distance off the tee.
