Lady Captain's Day

Last Tuesday was our Lady Captain's day. It's almost hard to believe now, but last week we had glorious unbroken sunshine which made for a great Lady Captain's day. Click here to watch the Lady Captain teeing-off and where she hit the fairway beautifully.

The great weather brought some very good golf from a few of our ladies. In medal format Darlene Masters scored a Nett 75 which was good enough for 3rd place. A further 3 shots ahead of her was Jane Campaigne with a nett 72 which only just came in 2nd place as Ange Riordan also shot 72 but won the comp on a card play-off. The scores were so tight between Ange and Jane we had to double and triple check them. They were off similar handicaps and both hit very steady rounds. It's a shame both of them couldn't have won! The best gross of the day was Emma-Jayne Bolshaw who shot an 84. 

Well done to the ladies who made the prizes and thank you to the Lady Captain for putting on a great day!


Stableford Competition

On Saturday, the gents played in a Stableford competition. We had some outstanding scores on the day. Matt Delaney and Geoff Churchman both scored 40 points to come 2nd and 3rd respectively. Matt is now down to a handicap of 1 and is having a great year. Just one shot ahead of them was Josh Turnock who was the winner on the day. The yellow course comp was won by Richard Atkinson with 32 points.


 

Lombard Trophy - Sandiway 

On Tuesday, me and Gordan Tebay played in the Lombard Trophy at Sandiway. Unfortunately, Gordan and I finished tied 22nd after struggling on the greens so will not be making the trip to Portugal. A score of 61 won the comp in the end so even if we had held all our missed putts we still probably wouldn't have stood a chance. However it was a good day out and my back held up the entire round!


 

Epic Irons!!

Without a doubt, the most technologically advanced Callaway irons ever. 

Next-generation 360 Face Cup - just 1mm thick at its thinnest point - is another key ingredient to unlocking extra yards throughout each set. Featuring an ultra-thin rim around the perimeter of the inner side of the face, at impact it flexes and rebounds to add ball speed on centre-hit shots, while minimising loss on off-centre strikes. 

The Centre of Gravity (CG) position in each head is precisely and individually managed via a new Metal Injection Moulded (MIM) process that utilises a dense, and heavy, tungsten powder baked into intricate Internal Standing Wave shapes that are unique to each iron. 

This ground-breaking, industry-first process allows the CG to be exactly positioned from club-to-club, (in the 3- to 8-iron 30% of the total head weight is located in the Internal Standing Wave alone) making long irons easy launching and high flying, and shorter clubs more controllable. 

We've got some demos in the shop with various shafts, if you fancy having a go just pop in and borrow one! I had a go with them yesterday and they really do fly.
