I am delighted to let you know, Iain and his wife Gin, had a healthy baby boy on Friday evening, weighing in at 8.1 pounds named Toben. They got home on Sunday and all are doing well. Great that they got home and managed to see the end of the Masters! We are starting him young on a life of golf!
Callaway Fitting Day - Friday 25th April
Bubba does it again!
Dear Mr Watson made things looks elementary on Sunday, and by the 12th hole it didn’t need Sherlock Holmes to deduce who the winner was going to be...sorry about that folks! But what great viewing and what an amazing start to the season that was, followed by an amazing week of weather here so far, and the course is in immaculate condition to match.
Masters Sweep Stake
It was very close for a long time but in the end Sally Watson took first prize of £150 credit with her blind selection of Bubba. Andrew Grant and Eric McIntosh took joint second place.

Euan Anderson bags his first Ace!
Euan was delighted last week when he had his first hole in one on the 13th hole. It was described by his playing partner Colin as “a perfect shot all over the flag, which landed a foot from the hole before it popped in!”
I told Euan to expect his next one soon, as we all know once the floodgates are open.....!
First Men’s Medal
Andrew Whale managed to scoop the first medal of the year with a nett 66, beating Dave Marshall on the better inward half. The scoring overall was really good as the wind was strong all day on Saturday.

Pro's Fund Day Texas Scramble - Saturday 17th May
This is to let you know that our fun competition will be held on the above date and this year will be a double shotgun start, one at 9am and one at 1:30pm with the prize giving straight after and hopefully some drinks and food in the clubhouse as well.
The format will be texas scramble - teams of 4, with loads of prizes and drinks on offer out on the course. If you don't have a team don't worry, we will pair you up with a team of like minded individuals! We are looking for 40 teams in total, 20 on each shotgun, and it will be on a first come first served basis as to which hole you tee off from! Teams can be mixed and booking opens on Saturday so don't delay!
Face Plane Tilt
Does this term sound familiar? It's very important to maintain a stable clubhead, that doesn't rest on the heel or toe when at impact or your launch angle could be heavily affected. If you think you might be suffring from an incorrect lie angle as you imapct the ball, and your ball flight is affected as such, it might be time to have your clubs reviewed. It doesn't do any harm to check, and if we find that you're using clubs incorrectly fitted for your swing, we can help improve them to get you playing better golf.
Making sure you have the correct 'face plane tilt' could considerably reduce your scores, due to more accuracy and confidence in your chipping ability. It also enforces that you must seriously consider custom fitting ALL your golf equipment, especially those clubs with more loft.
Don't leave it, get fitted by qualified professionals!
Do you always go off in one direction and can’t figure out why? 
A simple 2 minute lie check using our sole tape will tell us if your lie angle is right for you!
Using clubs that are correctly custom fitted for you can make the world of difference. On the other hand, using clubs that aren't matched with your specifications can make it a much harder task to play to full ability. If you think the clubs you're using aren't right for you, or you'd just like to check, speak to us in the pro shop or click on the link below. It could be the best thing to help improve your game.
