Gavin Lunny

Welcome back! It’s been a long time since many of you have been able to get out and play and I’m sure this week was a welcome sigh of relief as you took to the fairways. The course is in great shape and well done to Des and his team for all their hard work!

We have had a few visitors up on the range, it’s a bit early for Christmas but the sight of deer is something I would not be used to, a unique and welcome attraction to our range!

On Wednesday 1st July we have our first fitting day of the season. Our Callaway fitter will be on hand to guide you through how Callaway can help your game this season. Appointments are on the hour from 2pm-7pm please contact the pro shop or click here if you would like to book a fitting.

Club fitting is available now at our coaching and fitting studio, we prioritise custom fitting and whatever your scoring average, club fitting is the best way to invest in equipment to suit your game and give you that added advantage! If you would like more information, a club assessment or book a fitting, please click here or contact the pro shop.

In the meantime, stay safe and enjoy being back on the fairways!

For those of you who have managed to get out on the course, we want to hear your golfing stories!

No doubt some people are playing the best golf of their life after the long lay-off and all previous rounds a distant past. Whereas, for others, that delight at being out in the fresh air quickly evaporated after losing a ball down the first.

Thoughts for the course

Bad habits are a rite of passage for every golfer. Unfortunately, we don’t always grow out of them… Especially when it comes to driving. Believe it or not, smashing the ball as far as possible is as much about technique as it is, well, smashing it.

One of the most common homemade solutions for poor driving is to swing downwards onto the ball at impact. This does more harm than good. Yes, you want to hit downwards with your irons, but this is NOT the case for drivers.

Other than having a driver tailored to your swing, the easiest way to improve your driving is to strike the ball on an upwards arc. It's a mixture of a good body position, correct ball position as well as your angle of attack - three things we can help you with!

Golf at its best

We’re back on the golf course, back to hitting the fairways (sometimes), and isn’t it wonderful? The world isn’t yet back to normal, and we must still put safety first, but what better way to keep spirits high than a sunny day on the golf course?

Video of the Week

If we were to ask you who the best short-game player in the world is, it's likely that Phil Mickelson's name would be towards the top of your list. Why Phil? Well, just watch this video from the PGA Tour that is one unbelievable highlight reel. Enjoy.
