Club news

Just a quick note with an update on structure

Marc Godfrey is returning to the Hotel F&B Operation and taking over the running of the Trevallyan Restaurant. Marc has done a great job building a reliable service offering in the Golf Club along with Tom and the rest of the team, and it is now time for him to use his skills to take our restaurant to the next level, concentrating on guest journey and professional standards. I know he will work well with Ruel and the rest of the team and thank him for all he has done so far!

Sophie will move from being Marc’s strong support to overseeing the F&B operation in golf, and I’m sure she will bring her own ideas and focus to this solid department going forward.

Night golf

On Friday 8th March, we will be holding a night golf event here at The Welcombe.

Just a reminder that we will be holding the membership renewal evenings on Tuesday 5th and Friday 15th March for anyone that would like to come in and discuss their options in person with one of the team.

Tour news

Are new clubs the key?

It was the perfect start to 2019 for world number one Justin Rose, as he won the Farmers Insurance Open by three shots at Torrey Pines to claim his tenth victory on the PGA Tour. Rose, who has switched club manufacturers this season, showed no signs of rustiness as he drove and putted superbly throughout the week, with every round in the 60s. He had a brief wobble in the final round, with three bogeys in his opening five holes, but his nearest challenger in Adam Scott was unable to capitalise.

Whilst there would have been some eyebrows raised at Rose’s decision to switch up the clubs in his bag having just reached the pinnacle of golf, his victory shows that even the world’s best can keep on finding ways to improve their game through a change of gear in the bag. If you think it’s time for you to do the same, come down to the shop and have a chat with us – we’ll be happy to help you pick the clubs which take your game to the next level.

The moment you've been waiting for...

Last week, we revealed some of the best irons on the market for 2019. Well, this time we're bringing out the big guns for you; it's time to take a look at one of the hottest, fastest drivers on the market in 2019 that'll have you hitting the ball further than ever off the tee.

TaylorMade M6 driver

Featuring some of the most talked about technology in 2019, TaylorMade's M6 driver has been injected in both the toe and heel of its Twist Face to maximise ball speed close to the legal limit - all adding up to greater distance and performance.

The likes of Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy have already put the 2019 M drivers into play on Tour, so why wouldn't you go for this as well? Come and speak to a member of the team about a custom fitting.

The best keeps getting better

Titleist is a brand which is synonymous with excellence, with the iconic Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls proving a huge success for almost two decades now. So, rather than wholesale changes to an already brilliant offering, the brand has made some subtle - yet significant - improvements for 2019, including a high optic yellow colour option!

Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x (2019)

Golfers are greedy. We want to hit the ball further than ever but without giving up on anything else, such as feel or control. Well, the 2019 Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls will give you more ball speed and less long-game spin off the clubface compared to previous versions, which is the perfect equation for increased distance.

Couple this with amazing short game performance, and you have two golf balls that'll provide you with everything you need on the golf course.

Not sure which one to go for? Come and chat to us in-store and we'll fit you for the Titleist golf ball which best suits your game.
