Competition news

September Medal review

The last Medal of the summer was played on Saturday and there was one space left to be claimed to play in this weekend's Hartford Masters competition.

Mike Barrow has been showing an upturn in form recently and he peaked in the Medal as he scored a fine nett 65 to secure a two shot over the ever-consistent Stuart Gray on nett 67. With the victory, Mike claimed the final Masters place but unfortunately for him he is away when it takes place. Mike would have been one of the favourites as recently his handicap has fallen from 23 to 20 after a few good rounds. Captain Alan Tayler completed the top three with his round of nett 68.

Order of Merit

In another subplot, the Order of Merit is set for an exciting finish as the injured Peter Kinsey still holds on to his slender lead over last year's winner Ian Daines - can the tortoise overtake the hare? With one counting competition left (The President's Trophy) Ian needs a top eight finish to secure enough points to usurp Peter.

Reminder

If you put your name down for a competition but can't make it on the day please remember to phone the shop to let us know, two members didn't turn up on Saturday which caused a fair amount of hassle in then having to move players tee-times and groups around. This isn't fair on the players who have turned up on time.

Hartford Masters this Saturday...

We now have the final 24 players for the Hartford Masters which takes place this Saturday with an 11:00am first tee-time. There are 19 confirmed players with the other 5 qualifiers not being available on the day to play, you can check the tee-times and groups by clicking here.

Defending champion Kieran Underwood is in the field and he will be keen to hold on to the famous Hartford green jacket but he will have plenty of competition!

It was hard lines for Pete Kinsey who had to concede his Singles semi-final against Dave Johnson because of injury. Tim Barnes had a good 4 and 3 win against Brian Wager in the other match.

So the knockout final matches will be:

Singles: Tim Barnes vs. Dave Johnson
Pairs: Chris Bird & Paddy Scanlan vs. Joel and Andrew Cann

Remember to also get your Winter League entries in before the first round on 12th October.

They've done it again...

When a product has been the centre of a range for over a decade you know it must be pretty special, right? We certainly think so and it can be said of the Srixon AD333 golf ball, which is now into its ninth generation.

How does it differ? Well, it feels amazingly soft, provides even more distance and imparts a lot of spin when around the green. It's definitely worth a go, even if we do say so ourselves.

Battle of the irons

Before we pit these two beauties against one another, have a think about how good your bad shots are? It's a bit of an oxymoron, but are they disastrous and leading to big scores or are they less penal and still go somewhere around the green?

Red corner - Titleist T300 irons

If your bad shots really are bad then it's definitely worth looking at a game-improvement iron, like the T300 from Titleist. Not only does it come with added tungsten weighting in the toe for maximum forgiveness that you'll appreciate, but Max Impact technology provides incredible distance and feel across the entire face.

Blue corner - Titleist T100 irons

Those of you who tend to strike the ball well the majority of the time should consider the T100 model. It's a player's iron with a cleaner look next to the ball, and allows the better player to shape and flight the ball in whichever way they want. Both of these irons are available to try in your local pro shop today!

Just landed: autumn/winter clothing

A new season brings with it the perfect opportunity to upgrade our wardrobe and never has there been a better time than now thanks to the latest line of adidas clothing that is available in-store through us.

Heather Block Polo

This autumnal polo from adidas looks resplendent with the brand's signature three stripes across the chest. It also has moisture wicking and stretch fabric for a comfortable fit every time.

Ultimate Gradient Stripe

The navy-blue upper block colour is complimented perfectly by the mid-section stripe pattern and, if style wasn’t enough, the shirt is designed to help regulate your temperature.

Competition Sweater

A mid-layer is crucial at this time of the year and this option puts the ‘competition’ to bed – couldn’t resist - thanks to its athletic styling and signature three stripes on the right sleeve.

Video of the Week

We are often left amazed at some of the shots that the world's best golfers manage to pull off, but sometimes the stars aren't aligned and things can go wrong. Enjoy this week's video as we take a look back at some of the unluckiest shots ever seen on the European Tour.

We hope you have a great week.
