Ladies section

This week, what better place to start than with our ladies section, last Thursday they played a nine hole strokeplay competition and there were a number of good scores. For a change we'll go in reverse order - third place went to Ann Rowland with a two under par nett 33, there was then a tie on 31 for top spot with Joyce Graham taking the win courtesy of a better back six holes, second place went to Audrey Kettle.

We must also make a special mention of Jean Clare who had a nightmare start of a 12 on the first hole but then she buckled down and had a brilliant birdie two on the 5th hole and she still managed to card a solid level par round of nett 35 despite the bad first hole!

The ladies fixture list has just about been finalised and will be posted on the club website in the next week or so, the next ladies competition is over 18 holes and takes place this Thursday.

Senior’s section

Somewhat surprisingly, Alan Nevin posted his first victory of the season with the seniors last Tuesday, he had a great start with a birdie on the first hole and another birdie followed on the fifth hole to give him a 19 point winning total.

Also on 19 points was Frank Yarwood but a costly 7 on the last hole meant that he had to settle for second place, Chris Coates was third on 18 points including a great birdie on the 8th hole.

This week the Seniors play the last round of their Summer League, current leader is Bob Griffiths with a healthy 4 point lead, we'll bring you the final results next week.

New clothing arrivals

As much as we hate so say it, the summer is virtually over and the weather is definitely turning wetter and colder. As we say this, lots of new Autumn/Winter clothing has arrived in the shop this week. The collections are better and more technical than ever and with the right clothing you can still play golf no matter what the weather - no excuses!

So far we've had new clothing arrivals from FootJoy, Galvin Green, Nike, Adidas and the new Under Armour range will be landing any day now too, plus we now have the stunning new Peak Performance range in stock for the first time. Call in to the shop to have a look for yourself as some of the photos really don't do the collections justice and from next week onwards, we'll bring you reviews and features on some of the key new arrivals

Equipment arrivals

You can't have failed to notice that Titleist are bringing out an exciting range of new 718 irons and 818 hybrids at the end of the month, but the good news is that you don't have to wait until then to try them. As an advanced Titleist Fitting centre we already have the new demo irons in stock and we can report that they are the best looking and performing Titleist irons and hybrids yet, here is a very brief rundown of what is an extensive new line up:

718 AP1 irons - their most forgiving and powerful iron offering unbeatable distance and ball speed but with the usual Titleist feel, in our opinion this iron is as long as any other club on the market.

718 AP2 irons - popular with Tour players as this iron also offers exceptional shot making control and feel through the use of tungsten weighting and with the clean, sleek look that good players crave.

718 AP3 - a completely new addition to the range this iron sits perfectly between the AP1 and AP2 iron offering the best of both worlds with strong distance but with a thinner looking design, in our view this iron will be a real hit with a lot of golfers.
