Great to see some our juniors venturing out onto the golf course now and learning to play golf rather than just hitting shots on the range. 

A big surprise awaits the younger group next week. 

Please contact Andy for more information.


 

Practise v's Warm Up

For those who have had lessons with Andy know that he separates practising from warming up. Before going out to play it is important to get the body loose, hit a few shots to find a rhythm, hit some chip shots and some putts to feel the pace of the greens and feel prepared to go out and shoot a low score. 

Practise is something that should be done on a separate occasion when working on an area of your game that you wish to improve, i.e changing your technique on the down swing. 

If you are thinking about technique out on the golf course, it is very difficult to focus on shooting the best score that you can. For more information, please speak to Ady or Andy.

Is it the 'Big Three' or the 'Big Four'?

Just when you thought Jason Day, Jordan Spieth and Rory McIlroy were all set to divvy up golf's biggest prizes, along comes big-hitting Dustin Johnson. The US champion is now number two in the world and looks to be finally fulfilling his potential after another fine win at the weekend - and a big one too at the WGC Bridgestone Invitational. For years Johnson seemed destined to be the bridesmaid, now he's one of the favourites to go back-to-back in Majors and take the Claret Jug back across the Atlantic.

Next week's Open at Royal Troon could be a classic

Which leads us on to a new section of our website - our regular poll, and we want your votes. Tell us who you think will win the Open Championship next week; will it be Day, Johnson, Spieth, McIlroy or A.N. Other?
