Club event

Captains Barn Dance – Saturday, 29 June

The Golf Captains ask for your support for this event, at a cost of £20 including food, this is a great opportunity to socialise with other Members and support a great charity at the same time. I am sure all of us have some connection with Myton Hospice or Cancer during our lives and anything to raise money for these great causes deserves our support.

If you are STILL unable to attend, why not show your support by donating a bottle (or two) to the Tombola that will be held during the event? Bottles of any kind are acceptable and can be given to Andrew Burton, Carol McKinney or handed into the Golf Club.

Come on guys…give your Captains your support and help charity at the same time!

Wow. What a strike

How good does it feel when you strike the ball right out of the sweet spot? Pretty special, right? As much as we'd all love to, striking the centre of the clubface on every shot isn't realistic, which is why opting for some irons with added MOI could make all the difference.

What is MOI?

An iron’s actual sweet spot is no bigger than a pinhead, with anything struck outside resulting in the clubhead beginning to twist at impact – this is what is commonly referred to as MOI. The higher a club's MOI, the more stable it is through impact and therefore more resistant to twisting. So...

Higher MOI = More forgiving

The secret to better strikes

So, here's the secret to getting that special feeling more often with your irons:

Coaching – Yep, let’s take some time to assess your swing to ensure you're giving yourself the best chance of success

Try out PING’s G410 irons – These great looking game improvement irons feature toe and hosel weighting to increase MOI for more forgiveness

Battle of the balls

It’s time to bring you aheavyweight contest as two brilliant models of golf ball duke it out for your attention in a bid to convince you they should be making their way into your bag. Let the battle commence...

Which ball will come out on top?

Titleist Velocity

True to its name, Titleist’s two-piece Velocity golf ball is all about speed and distance.

A brutal combination of a softer core, faster cover and improved aerodynamics produce frightening distance compared to previous generations.

One of our favourite things is that the Velocity is also available in orange and pink, so you will always see it sailing off into the distance.

It comes in at a cheaper price point than its challenger, but you certainly get great performance.

Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x

Arguably the most recognisable golf ball in the world, Titleist’s Pro V1 and Pro V1x literally need no introduction.

One thing to say is that although the name has remained the same for decades, the ball itself continues to go from strength-to-strength.

Yes, they come in at a premium price point but what else would you expect from the #1 ball in golf? All you need to do now is choose between the Pro V1x's higher trajectory and the Pro V1's incredibly soft feel. Over to you...
