Less than three weeks until Christmas Day, which is sneaking up on us like a dreaded three putt bogey on the last to hit buffer; but there is still time to get the right present for you, or your golfing partner. As we continue the December theme, this week’s newsletter will again highlight some Christmas offers, as well as the perfect present for your loved ones (or yourself). Speaking of yourself, you can still treat yourself to some beer in The Swing Lounge, a fourball booking three hours will receive a FREE crate of beer to enjoy in the warm surroundings, this offer is on until the end of the year. Check out our other gift ideas this week and remember if your struggling what to get you could treat someone to a gift voucher to spend in the shop (one-year expiry).
This week me and Ryan visited Callaway Golf to see some of their new product for next year, it's always a cool part of what we do and Callaway have been raising the bar over the past few years. They manage to have an array of products on offer, new and continuing that make you excited to get going in the new season. The Rogue collection for example, released this year will continue in their line up along with the XR Speed woods released this year; but with an addition of the new EPIC Flash drivers and fairways.
The story behind this new driver is awesome, the closest we've come to a computer designed driver (mainly the clubface), rest assured we will have this new driver as early as anyone else in the UK with full custom fit options. Custom fit being a real theme for this next year, with hopefully a new partnership with Callaway and Odyssey upcoming, in 2019 we will up our game in offering fitted, bespoke clubs. Keep an eye out for some changes and additions we are putting in place in January; you will see plenty in the newsletter.
Enjoy this week's read! |
Winter washout
Let's just say last week’s Winter League was a wash out, because it really was. Only 29 pairs competed in the fourth Winter League, the poor weather keeping people away. Nevertheless, Keith Gardner and Steve Carter on his return from Arizona scored a solid 42 points over the 16-hole course, a great win for the pair. Next week’s Winter League will be over 15 holes, missing out 15-17, this will help get everyone round as we move towards our shortest day of the year. Please make sure you play 'ready golf’, the quicker you get round, the quicker you can get a pint, some of you won't need telling that I’m sure.
Our Rabbits section held their Christmas Competition this past Saturday, a drawn pairs event again held in poor weather conditions. Still, a hardy 21 pairs went out and it was great to see Jeff Hodgkiss in the winner’s circle with John Hayes. Jeff recently having heart surgery, not saying he was the Tin Man but he's showing a bit of hear on the golf course; maybe it's a signal of bigger things to come.
Not quite a member, but Heysham GC man Jack Senior is in action on the main Tour this week in South Africa, the Joburg Open. 190 players entered the event is underway with Ernie Els leading the way. Let's hope Jack can keep the high scores off the card.

If you had to describe your iron play in one word, what would it be? Pin-seeker? Average? Inconsistent? Regardless of how your irons were this year, 2019 brings about a new season so there's no better time to start working on your game - there's always room for improvement. |
One way to do this is by getting custom fitted for Titleist's AP1 and AP3 irons. These clubs boast some outstanding technology to help you make more greens in regulation. The AP1 is Titleist's Ultimate Game Improvement iron, offering a higher launch and great forgiveness so every shot you hit is closer to your target. Combine this with AP3 in your long irons for distance where you need it most, and you have the perfect set for 2019. |
