For every occasion

On the course, strutting down the high-street or enjoying a well-deserved holiday; no matter what we’re doing we want to know that the sunglasses we’re wearing look great. If we can find a pair that looks the part in all of the above scenarios then even better...

Oakley Mercenary sunglasses

Performance, versatility and style are a must and if you hadn’t guessed already, Oakley bring those three elements to the table with their Mercenary Prizm shades.

For the course, Prizm lens technology comes to the fore to enhance colour contrasts so we can spy any course undulations with ease - especially useful on the greens.

However, the versatility of these shades is the main USP. Its modern styling allows for a look that fits any surroundings with ease, whilst the impressive UV protection means the Mercenary is ready to tackle any beach holiday!

We've got a wide range of Oakley sunglasses available to order via our Click & Collect website, so click on the button below to explore the range.

The most beautiful shot in golf

If we were to ask you this question what would you say? We think some of you would say the ‘Tiger stinger’ but a good proportion would say the pitch shot that takes a couple of bounces before stopping to a halt. It looks sensational but how on earth do you play it?

The key to making this shot is simple – your wedges. Yes, technique is key and is certainly something we can talk you through during a lesson but without the correct equipment you stand no chance.

Try PING's new Glide 3.0 wedges

If the grooves on your wedges are worn or dirty, it's time to either clean or replace them.

We love these Glide 3.0 wedges from PING, which boast Precision-Milled grooves for incredible performance.

Essentially, these patented wheel-cut grooves come with a sharper edge to increase the interaction with the ball, thus creating more friction and spin.

Mastering this shot takes practice and a little coaching, so book in with us and we will give you all the guidance you need.
