An ace week for Master Eddie

The British Masters took place at Walton Heath in Surrey last week and was hosted by the local favourite, Justin Rose. The tournament had a stark weather contrast from start to finish with conditions declining and making it a real grind for the players. The caddies were certainly tested during the final round trying to keep their players warm and dry. It was a day of umbrellas, waterproofs and wearing the correct layering, which at this time of year can help or hinder your round.

The tournament winner was Eddie Pepperell who dealt with the conditions the best and led from start to finish to claim a two-shot victory. Eddie’s highlight of the week was his impressive hole-in-one on Thursday at the ninth hole, earning £20,000 for charity and a celebratory bottle of wine from the tournament host. Pepperell now moves up to 33rd in the world rankings and with it an invite to next year’s biggest tournaments including his first trip to The Masters at Augusta.

Accuracy over distance

If you watched the Ryder Cup last month then one thing should have become clear to you: finding the fairway off the tee is a must. Whilst distance does help, there's no point thrashing a drive as far as you can if you don't hit the fairway, finding yourself cutting down trees as a result - as depicted in the illustration below.

Find the short stuff

In order to shoot lower scores, you need to put a premium on finding the fairway, something that a custom fitting for PING's G400 Max driver will certainly help with. It is PING's highest ever MOI driver, which means the G400 Max is its most forgiving driver to date, whilst still boasting a piercing ball flight like the other three models in the G400 range.

Shake off a shower

As winter approaches, we can expect a lot of things with one certainty being rain, and a lot of it. We all know what this can lead to - feeling soaked out on the course, a barely readable scorecard and, in some cases, just a generally miserable round of golf. Enter, golf-specific waterproofs….

Those disgruntled feelings of being drenched during your 18 holes will be a thing of the past once you've tried on Under Armour's Storm Rain jacket. This jacket is 100% waterproof so you needn't worry about your jumper being drenched no matter the weather. It also has a mesh lining to allow for greater breathability and comfort during your round.

Spotlight: New PING Sigma 2 putters

There's a saying in golf that PING putters get better with age, yet its new range is pretty special.

Sigma 2 putters have a very soft feel thanks to its new face technology, but the main talking point is the adjustable-length shaft.

PING says 8 out of 10 players are playing the wrong-length putters and losing strokes as a result. Now, we can customize your putter so that you see a significant improvement on the greens by simply turning a tool at the top of the grip. Interested?

I hope you enjoyed my newsletter. Remember I have more information available on my website. If you need any further help or advice, please come into the shop and we'll be delighted to help.
