Running on empty?

If your electric trolley is struggling to make it round 18 holes then it might be time you upgraded its battery. There's been a huge push towards Lithium batteries in recent years as they last longer, charge quicker and are more lightweight than previous Lead Acid equivalents. So, if it's time you change your electric trolley battery, bring your old one in-store and enjoy £25 OFF a brand-new Lithium one.

Boa constrict your footwear

There's been two major trends in the golf footwear market in recent years: the first is the surge in spikeless shoes, and the other is Boa. So, what actually is the Boa Fit System and is it anything to do with snakes?

FootJoy UltraFIT Boa golf shoe

No, it's nothing to do with snakes. Phew. Rather, the Boa Fit System has revolutionized footwear for the better and we absolutely love it.

Instead of using traditional laces, Boa utilises a steel wire (virtually unbreakable) that is effortlessly tightened via an easy-to-use dial strategically placed on the shoe (seen above). To loosen, simply pull out the dial and open up at the tongue.

With FootJoy's UltraFIT Boa, which is available in-store now, you will be guaranteed a comfortable fit every time safe in the knowledge that your laces will not come undone or get tangled throughout your round.

If you haven’t already experienced Boa, then we implore you to come down to the store and try on this fantastic option today - no obligation.

Make your putting fun

Have you ever found yourself on the green with an outside shot of birdie, only to go and three-putt? Yep, we’ve all done it, however, if the thought of heading to the practice green hardly fills you with excitement, why not try a putting game to increase the fun?

1st one in wins

Ramp up the pressure with a playing partner on the practice green with a game of first one in wins. The premise is simple:

Pick two holes that are 10-foot apart
You and a playing partner stand at opposite ends (as per the picture above)
Hit putts at the same time to the other hole
Every putt that is holed is worth one point
First to three points wins

You will be amazed at how quickly you dial your putts in under pressure. Just remember, if you’re the winner, make sure you get your playing partner to treat you to a drink in the clubhouse after your round.

Spotlight: Callaway Apex (2019) irons

Irons usually get updated every couple of years, so why did it take Callaway over three years to bring a new Apex iron model to market? Well, quite simply, the Apex CF16 was a brilliant iron that took a while to improve upon.

However, the brains at Callaway have done it and what a special option the new Apex CF19 is; not to mention the Apex Pro irons too. Watch this video to find out why this iron has us so excited in the shop.

Video of the Week

Some of you might recall Colin Montgomerie's driver off-the-deck on the final hole of the 1996 Omega Dubai Desert Classic. Well, 23 years on, can Tommy Fleetwood, Rafa Cabrera-Bello or Matt Fitzpatrick repeat Monty's tournament-winning shot?

We hope you enjoyed the newsletter. If you require any help or advise please reply to this email or pop into the shop and we'll be delighted to help. Gaz and Lee.
