It was great to see everyone back after the short break, with lots of enthusiasm and things to work on. There will be lots of short game stuff over the next few weeks.

Do you know how far you hit each club?
During a recent group lesson with our ladies, we talked about distance control and how important it was to know how far you hit each club, NOT just a rough estimate.
Gap testing in the Golf Cave could be a vital component to your game, knowing how far you carry the ball will lead to more confidence in your shot choices and the swings you make over the shot.

Increase in rounds played
With more golfers now playing during the summer, please be make sure that divots are replaced and pitchmarks are repaired. Also, there is grass and seed mix on the tees of the par 3's, so please fill and smooth and divots that are taken to ensure that the grass can recover faster.
Please take notice of areas of the golf course that are roped off or have barriers up, these are here to protect the course against use or over-use.
The new grassed tee on the 15th hole has been used. Please note that the mat is still to be used until the new tee is fully ready.
