There was some light this week when it was "floated" that golf may be able to return in March, we will be keeping our fingers and toes crossed that's for sure!

Although as a golfer I am not a fan of snow, the winter can create some fantastic scenes and I have included a few below of our beautiful course, clubhouse and the fabulous view we get to enjoy.

Thanks to everyone who has contacted me to enter our competition, name the toughest golf hole you have ever played! The prize is a game assessment and TrackMan session. Next week we will pick the winner, in the meantime click here to enter and tell us what is, for you, the toughest hole you have ever played!

This time of year is like Christmas for golf as we see new models arriving, alas that will have to wait until we reopen, but there is some fascinating technology coming on stream. I can assure you that we will be at the cutting edge of this! Mark and I have been busy getting our studio ready and displaying all the new options along with scheduling fitting days for all the major brands. We also will be fitting for a unique brand at the forefront of technology and unique to Dun Laoghaire GC. We will have more details next week but there are some very exciting developments in club fitting that we look forward to sharing with you. If you would like to make any enquiries about club fitting or coaching please feel free to get in touch by clicking here.

In the meantime, stay safe, stay warm and stay well!

A new season treat

There’s nothing quite like arriving at the golf club with a brand-new golf bag that really looks the part. Well, we all hope to be playing lots of golf this spring/summer so we have just what you’re looking for.

Titleist’s updated StaDry bag range for 2021 includes both stand & trolley options, and even a hybrid of the two. You can choose from any of these sleek models and love the way they look, but of course, it’s not all about show.

These bags also happen to be completely waterproof, with an array of purpose-built pockets for everything from spare clothes to cold drinks. Despite all of this, the bags are lightweight, so they’re never a burden during your round.

Brand-new balls!

We change our club between most shots, but hopefully that’s not the case with your golf ball (if it is, maybe it’s time to see us for some lessons!). We all want to trust our golf ball to give us what we need from tee-to-green, maybe with a helping hand along the way.

COMING SOON - Srixon Soft Feel Brite

This is exactly what Srixon considered when designing their new Soft Feel Brite golf balls, from the easy distance provided by the FastLayer core to the greenside spin gained from the soft cover. Of course, there’s also the bonus of various bright-coloured designs to help you keep track of your ball in the air and find it in the rough.

Srixon Q-Star Tour

If you play within fine margins, Srixon’s Q-Star Tour golf balls give you precise all-round performance. Effortless distance and excellent greenside spin control are both there for the taking, with a focus on incredibly soft feel as well. These really are a must-try, so why not make the switch and see for yourself?
