Testing...Testing...

This year we have added the Bunker Mentality brand to our line up. The brand itself has been around for twelve years with a view to taking golf clothing from the course to something that you can wear away from the course too.

Both Ady and Andy have commented on how good the fit is. They are very comfy to wear and the collars hold their shape after washing.

The Polygiene Odor Control Technology ensures that they stay fresh and last longer which is a huge plus when you’ve spent 4 hours out on the course in the sun.

Bunker Mentality has brought out some fantastic designs which have already proved popular. Come and check them out in the shop.

Fitting news

Mid-Season Checkup

Have you noticed that your 7-iron seems to fly the same as your 8-iron?

When was the last time you had your lofts checked?

Over time hitting shots and practising can lead to the lofts changing on your irons. One degree of loft change could be the difference of four yards which could mean the difference between hitting the green or going long and making bogey.

We offer a FREE loft and lie check on your clubs.

Come and speak to Ady or Andy for more information.

Walking on sunshine

Is there a better time than summer to be out playing golf? Silly question, really. So, now you’ve got your cap on and you’re lathered in sun lotion, it’s time to make sure the most important part of your body (arguably) is protected: your eyes.

Oakley Mercenary sunglasses

UV protection

You don’t need us to tell you that staring straight at the sun is not the smartest idea, but these sunglasses come with UV protection to keep those harmful rays at bay.

Enhanced vision

The best thing about the Mercenary is that it comes with Oakley's Dark Prizm lenses, which help to improve colour, contrast and detail for maximum clarity on the course.

Stylish look

Last but by no means least, these sunnies are incredibly stylish with a modern frame and larger lens shape, meaning you'll happily wear them all day long.

Looking for something else?

If the Mercenary doesn't tickle your fancy then not to worry, we have a huge collection of Oakley sunglasses available online to get delivered to store for you to pick up at your convenience - simply click on the button below to browse the range.

Lost your groove?

Much like the tyres on your car, there comes a time when the grooves on your wedges have worn away so much that they need replacing. This process occurs slowly over time and is something that you might not notice at first glance, but when the wear becomes apparent it can have serious consequences on your game.

Fresh vs worn grooves

It might seem a little extreme, but the graphic above illustrates the impact worn grooves can have on shots into greens - a lower ball flight that rolls out farther compared to a wedge with fresh grooves.

Yes, you might be able to adapt by pitching the ball shorter and letting it roll out, but when you don't have much green to work with or are playing a delicate shot worn grooves will be of no use.

What do we suggest?

If dirt, grit and water have visibly harmed your wedge face, it’s time to get your groove back with a new wedge set-up.

One model that we'd certainly recommend trying is Cleveland’s RTX4 wedge. RTX stands for Rotex Face Technology, which creates more spin than ever before for greater control around the greens.

These wedges are trusted by some of the world's best golfers, such as Matsuyama and McDowell, so you can guarantee they'll add heaps of performance to your game.
