Pro's tip

Putt those extra shots away

Here in the shop, we often get asked for advice for quick fixes on how to cut shots from your round of golf, and I think you'd be surprised just how often the conversation turns to putting.

If you think about it; which club in your bag do you use the most during your round?

Driver? Maybe 10-12 times per round.
Irons? Maybe 5 times per iron per round.
Putter? Just about every single hole, often twice or even three times.

There are so many different types of putters; mallet or blade head, thick or thin grip, and different lengths available. Making sure that you're happy and suited to your putter is an absolute no-brainer.

Get in touch with us if you'd like to start cutting shots from your score by starting on the greens. Pop in the pro shop, or contact us here.

Tour news

The wait is over

Graeme McDowell ended a near-six-year European Tour drought by battling through a blustery final day at Royal Greens Golf and Country Club to win by two from defending champion Dustin Johnson.

The likes of Phil Mickelson, Brooks Koepka, and Patrick Reed (along with Dustin Johnson) were just some of the star names skipping the PGA Tour’s stop at the Waste Management Phoenix Open (won by Webb Simpson) in favour of the Saudi International, but none could match McDowell’s winning 12-under-par.

The win sees the Northern Irishman move back into the world’s top fifty with one eye firmly on adding to his major tally in 2020.

A new ball worth trying

Already this year we've seen the release of new drivers and irons (nothing unusual in that), but now we have something else to show you and we're excited to say they'll be arriving with us soon!

Srixon Q-Star Tour golf balls

Many of you will be big fans of the AD333 ball from Srixon, which has been a mainstay in its range since 2003 - albeit, being improved upon every couple of years.

Well, sitting alongside it for 2020 is the Q-Star Tour, which delivers tour-level spin and distance but in a remarkably soft cover - whilst being at a brilliant price point too!

The gloves are on

Are you a glove wearer when playing golf? If you are, do you take it off when you're chipping and putting or do you keep it on for all shots? The important thing is that it feels great on your hand, and that's something FootJoy has definitely achieved with its new option for 2020.

FootJoy gloves available in-store

Many of you will be familiar with the Contour name from FootJoy's shoe division, which is a model that excels in comfort and great feel.

Well, they now have a ContourFLX glove that provides a fantastically comfortable fit from its premium CabrettaSof leather - you need to try this!
