Pro's Day

What a fantastic day we had on Saturday for my Pro’s Day, and it was amazing to see over 160 players in the field. The amount of work that goes into a day like that is huge, and the help of my volunteers on the day is what makes it so successful.

Thank you to David Chalmers, Davy Thomson, Ann & Phil Mawhood, Fiona Logan and Kenny MacLennan. I can’t be in 5 different places at once, so the day genuinely could not have operated without your help.

Fortunately, the weather was kind overall and the golf course was in magnificent condition. I look forward to hosting again next year, and I might even get David Gillon to run the iron over the difficult hole position an extra couple of times next year!

Scratch

Iain Boyd & Gordon Lyons – 66.

Handicap

David McNally & Roy Wright – 58 (bih).
Ian Lindsay & Davy Glen – 58.
David Wheeler & Chris Wheeler – 59.
Keith Davis & Dougie Waite – 62 (bih).

Best Ladies

Fiona Logan & Jean Hillis – 65.

Best Mixed

Gary McLellan & Marie McLellan - 67.

Final's Day

Despite some horrendous weather on Sunday, we managed to successfully complete all 4 Final’s. The standard of golf was fantastic, and it was great to see so many members out watching despite the heavy rain.

Congratulations to all the winners!

Gents Scratch: Ross Ewen bt Gordon Lyons

Gents Handicap: George Greig bt Matt Chesher

Wow. What a strike

How good does it feel when you strike the ball right out of the sweet spot? Pretty special, right? As much as we'd all love to, striking the centre of the clubface on every shot isn't realistic, which is why opting for some irons with added MOI could make all the difference.

What is MOI?

An iron’s actual sweet spot is no bigger than a pinhead, with anything struck outside resulting in the clubhead beginning to twist at impact – this is what is commonly referred to as MOI. The higher a club's MOI, the more stable it is through impact and therefore more resistant to twisting. So...

Higher MOI = More forgiving

The secret to better strikes

So, here's the secret to getting that special feeling more often with your irons:

Coaching – Yep, let’s take some time to assess your swing to ensure you're giving yourself the best chance of success

Try out Mizuno's JPX919 irons – All three models in the range (Hot Metal, Forged and Tour) boast a unique stability frame to enhance MOI across the face; plus, the Swing DNA will fit you into the perfect model for your game in just three swings

Let’s start getting a little extra forgiveness back in your game with a fun-filled custom fitting session with your local PGA professional – that’s us!

Battle of the balls

It’s time to bring you aheavyweight contest as two brilliant models of golf ball duke it out for your attention in a bid to convince you they should be making their way into your bag. Let the battle commence...

Which ball will come out on top?

Callaway Supersoft

The Supersoft is up first and, as you can probably guess from the name, the ball is Callaway’s softest to date thanks to an updated cover.

Enhanced feel, better greenside control and longer carries from improved aerodynamics make this two-piece ball a vast improvement on previous generations.

You'll find the Supersoft comes in at a cheaper price-point to its challenger, but will come out on top for those who prioritise distance over everything else.

Callaway Chrome Soft

If you want to play a ball that is fantastic in all departments and one that's trusted by the world's best (including Phil Mickelson) then the Chrome Soft will win this battle.

It's four-layer construction combines with an ultra-soft Urethane cover for Tour-level feel, control and distance.

For a more expensive price point you get a brilliant all-rounder that will offer you something in all departments; not to mention it's available in snazzy TruVis designs for a personal style.
