Greetings golfers,

Last week Eamon McGrath, in search of a new driver, did a fitting with us. We compared a few of our new drivers with his old TaylorMade. He found all of them to be better than his old one but found the best results with the new Callaway XR.

Due to the design of the XR his swing speed was increased by 5mph and as a consequence hit the ball on average a whopping 20-25 yards further! Here is photographed looking happy with his new toy!

Motocaddy S7 Remote

New in the shop!!

The first remote control model in the Motocaddy range boasts one of the trolley sector's most sophisticated guidance systems, utilising two motors to provide a combination of power and precision, plus an anti-tip wheel to ensure stability on the most challenging golf course terrains.

Based on the same frame design as the award-winning S-Series range, it comes with a control system that allows golfers to adjust how much the trolley turns to the left or right simply by varying the pressure applied to buttons on the handset. An innovative tilt function helps compensate for the effect of lateral slopes, while the advanced electronics also make it possible to switch from remote to manual control

Last Tuesday 28th April the ladies took part in one of their majors, the Dora Hill Major Medal. 40 ladies took part in the comp. Myra Penkethman managed to score a nett 72 which was good enough for 2nd place, with Rosemary Limb taking the first prize with a nett 70.

Saturday 2nd May came the turn of the men who also played in a Medal. Eric Farrer shot a very good nett 68 which was only good enough for 3rd place, Simon Moorehouse narrowly beat him with 67 to come 2nd. But young Matthew Delaney managed a very impressive 66 to take the first prize. Joe Armitt shot the best gross of 71. Well done to all our winners in last week's competitions.

Callaway Fitting  Day - 13th May 1-5pm

We have an exciting date for you to book in your calendar.

Reps are going to be coming down from Callaway to allow you to have a go with some of the best and newest golfing equipment available.

You don't have to spend any money, all we ask is you come and have a go!! 

There will be a selection of free prizes given to anyone who books an appointment.

The equipment you will be trialling WILL add yards, and you may get a tip or two off one of the reps, so almost like a free lesson!!

Only A Couple Spots Left So Get Yourself Down Quickly!!!

Some of the hardware available to use on the day will be:

Callaway XR Driver

The XR Driver is built for outrageous speed. To reduce drag and maximize speed through the swing, there is a Speed Step Crown combined with an optimized aerodynamic head shape. Everything about this driver is optimized for aero efficiency, which is critical to add speed with less drag. Technology allows for a thinner face, over an even larger area of the face, for maximum ball speeds. If you want speed, this is the driver for you!

Callaway XR Irons

The XR Irons are the first high speed, cavity back, cup-face iron. The improved face cup technology provides outrageous ball speed all across the face. It feels like it is almost pre-programmed to go high and straight, with easy altitude throughout the set and no issues in the rough. Eye-opening length-for many testers, the XR iron plays at least half a club beyond what they're currently carrying; a few guys say that misses with the XR fly farther than many irons' good shots.

These are just a couple of the clubs that will be available to use on the demo day. The full range of the XR's will be available as well as the Big Bertha range and other wedges and putters that Callaway provide. It's going to be a fun day so make sure you book now!!.
