Latest News
Last week I spoke about The Swing Lounge Winter League, and it was hard to picture the winter ahead when we had several warm, sunny days. However, after the last few days- maybe you can picture it now? Check out the section on The Swing Lounge which also features a picture of our new screen, installed this week with the help of Nick Lamb (what a guy). It looks awesome, and these screens aren't cheap, which is why we have patched it up a little over the past year. We can't wait for you to try it and we hope you can join us for our Sign up evening next Wednesday! The Lounge will be open from 6 pm, with a free gift when you sign up and pay on the evening. Everyone is welcome, so get yourself signed up and be in with a chance to win some of our £1500 prize pot! Out on the golf course, things have been a bit wet so the club has now installed preferred lies in the general area. This is the new term for ' through the green', for anyone wondering what the general area actually is. The bunkers will now also be 'lift, rake & place', this means with poor weather coming more regularly the lies you can have throughout the next 5 months or so will be a little bit fairer.

Wheatley Boy's annual trip to Heysham
This weekend we will be welcoming the Wheatley boys to Heysham in their annual visit as they take on the HGC boys for the Ram's horns (I think?). The weekend I'm sure will be full of laughs, beer and the odd bit of woeful golf. The picture below is the HGC lad's sporting some shirts we provided them with in 2018. Great bunch! They will be also playing Sunday in the annual St. Johns Hospice Open. All those playing will take part in the Jack Butler Memorial Trophy, after HGC long-time member Carl's father. Carl put's a lot of effort into this Charity event, so we wish him the best of luck and on behalf of Carl Thank You to all those who sponsor the event. We will be putting on some prizes for the Charity that will be used on all the Par 3's as Nearest the Pin prizes; Good Luck everyone!

Just picture those cold, dark winter nights and how a beer, 9 holes in the warmth with your mates can lift the gloom of the dreaded British winter. We love hosting this league, and with a good amount of entries, the prize fund will be over £1,500. The more entries; the higher the prize fund.

Winter is coming... Last week I spoke about the benefit of putting yourself in some warm winter trousers keeping those legs toasty in the cold months. So this week we have a new product to show you. Remember, we can show you everything, so pop into store to check out our latest autumn/winter ranges. |
The Waterproof Stand Bag...
Winter can be a bit rainy, and we know some of us start to use the trolley less... So I recommend trying a waterproof stand bag. These bags are fully waterproof with repellent membrane skins, waterproof zips and are very lightweight! We actually have a few in-store from Titleist, Callaway, TaylorMade, Ogio, Motocaddy and Benross. But this week are showing you the impressive Ouul Waterproof collection; I love the colours! These bags are a decent option and sit well below some of the other waterproof bags in terms of price! Plus, they are slim and lightweight! Perfect!

Tickets available behind the bar, sign up sheet to stick yours and your friends' names down can be found on the Spike Bar notice area! It's a great laugh, so make sure you are involved! Don't forget the Un-Official Awards at the end of the night! They're always special!

Without further ado, let us introduce TaylorMade’s scintillating Milled Grind 2 wedge and look at why it's such a good option to be putting in the scoring part of your bag. |
| TaylorMade Milled Grind 2 wedges |
|
Now this wedge is quite unique. It's all to do with Raw Face Technology, which increases spin and feel compared with the original Milled Grind. Not only that but whilst the face rusts over time, the rest of the head will maintain its sleek finish. |
They look stunning, they perform superbly and there are plenty of options available from a loft, grind and finish perspective. All that's left to do now is to come and try them out yourself the next time you're down the club. |
