Scott Graham

Hello Golfers,

We hope you're well.

The week we've all been waiting for has arrived! It really has been great to see so many smiling faces at the club over the past few days.

Can you believe it's Masters week (again!) in just a few days? It wasn't too long ago that we sat in awe as Dustin Johnson's remarkable game tamed the unforgiving Augusta National. Who do you think will come out on top next week? Reply to this email with your favourite!

Enjoy this week's read.

Scott and the Team.

Always learning

I was privileged to attend a training session with the Heads of R&D for Callaway and Odyssey, Doctor Alan Hocknell and Sean Toulon, last week.

These two are the preeminent brains in golf club technology and it was incredibly insightful to learn how they have developed clubs to help golfers get more enjoyment and performance from their games.

So, if you're interested in getting fitted for either Callaway or Odyssey clubs, get in touch with the team today.

Major season kicks off this week

European golf fans, cover your eyes! The WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play was not pretty viewing for Padraig Harrington & Co. as the States dominated, with Billy Horschel defeating Scottie Scheffler in a scrappy final. Who can blame them considering it was their 7th match in just four days!

The Major Championship season kicks off this week as the world’s best lady golfers head to California for the ANA Inspiration. Last year’s tournament saw Mirim Lee shock everyone with a comeback win including two chip-ins, an 18th-hole eagle and a three-way playoff! A host of the game’s stars, including the Korda sisters (Nelly & Jess), Lexi Thompson and Danielle Kang have all been in fine form this year. It’s destined to be a cracker!

Hopefully, it won't be long before you're teeing up in major club competitions once again so why not book yourself in for a lesson or two to sharpen up your game?

Your game, your irons

How do you know which irons are right for your game? Well, it’s great to think about what level you’re playing at now and what ambitions you have for the future. Whilst you might not be looking to play in the Masters next week, it’s worth considering which irons will move your game to the next level.

Callaway's brand-new Apex range for 2021

If you’re a high-handicapper looking to drop your handicap into the teens, Callaway’s Apex DCB irons are a superb option. It's a forged iron with a deep cavity back, meaning you get the same feel as better players but with an emphasis on forgiveness.

Callaway’s Apex 21 irons are a gift for mid-handicappers; the completely-forged body delivers a blade-like feel to prepare you for the future, whilst the A.I.-designed Flash Face and Tungsten Energy Core maintain the distance and forgiveness you need on off days.

We haven’t forgotten about you low-handicap golfers either, and nor has Callaway! The Apex Pro 21 irons focus on all-out precision, with a more compact body enabling workable ball flights and unparalleled feel. Now it's down to you...!

Staying grounded this season

You quite literally want to stay grounded as you play golf this year. I’m not expecting you to float away like a balloon, but without the right footwear there is a chance that your ball will.

The obvious place to start here is with an outsole that grips the turf both as you walk and as you swing so you can focus on enjoying your round.

You’ll also want a stable platform that allows you to swing without compromise, as well as underfoot cushioning so you can walk the course with a smile on your face.

Skechers’ Pro 4 Legacy golf shoes feature completely waterproof uppers and a combination of ULTRA GO & Resamax cushioning underfoot.

The sleek, low profile keeps you in close contact with the ground as you swing, with Softspikes on a dynamic diamond traction plate sole for unrivalled grip.
