Modernising Golf's Rules

Last week the R&A proposed some key changes to the Rules of Golf from 2019. Their Rules Modernisation initiative has been underway for a few years now and this is the next stage in that process. The aim is to not only make the Rules easier to understand, but also to address some of the game's current problems, such as speed of play, and ensure they fit the needs of today's game.

Please spare a couple of minutes to complete our survey, which gives you the chance to have your say on the proposed changes.

We've picked out some of the most significant Rules changes for you to digest in this survey, before giving you the chance to say whether you agree or disagree with each of them. It'll be great to know your thoughts.

Have your say here.

Mini Junior and Junior Welcome Evenings

We have our Murrayfield Mini Junior (MMJ) and junior welcome evenings this week and next. This gives our young golfers, both new members and existing members, the chance to come along and meet other members, have some food and fun games, and offers the chance for parents and juniors to ask us any questions they may have.

Whether it's signing up for competitions or lessons, achieving a golf handicap or general golf etiquette and rules issues we are there (as we are throughout the year) to help.

The MMJ welcome evening is on Thursday, 9 March 6-7pm.

The Junior evening is on Tuesday, 14 March 6-8pm and includes a buffet dinner (please advise in advance if you wish to attend).

Golf Grip MOT - FREE Grip On Your Seven Iron

This promotion gives you the opportunity to try a new grip on your seven iron (or any other club for that matter) to feel the benefits that new grips on your clubs can offer. A worn or slick grip on your golf club can have a major impact on your golf swing and performance. Increased grip pressure to ensure the club is secure will decrease the speed of the club head and cause a loss of distance. Worn grips may also slip in your hands, causing the club head to shift from square and result in off-centre strikes and a decrease in shot accuracy.
