They said Wednesday would be dreadful all day and guess what .........they got the forecast correct. Funny how it's always correct when bad weather is predicted!!

After unprecedented rainfall since early December it's inevitable that a good downpour has nowhere to go when the water table is so high resulting in unfortunate course closures but....

Why not use this time to get your game and equipment in shape ready for the months ahead. There are various ways this can be done:

Equipment check

These are great sessions and I suppose we should call them your "Game Health Check"

A FREE overview of your equipment consists of us doing the following:

- Checking the condition of your clubs, especially your grip
- Loft and lie check of your irons - if they were not custom fit, do they exactly suit you? But if they were fit are you still the same?
- Suitability of your clubs - are they the best for you
- Yardages - do you have any gaps or duplication in your range of clubs?

Custom fitting

It's always exciting trying new clubs, and trust us when we say the new equipment launched in the last few days is arguably the most exciting for a while.

PING and TaylorMade continue to dominate the hardware market with over 50% between them, and the new products launched by them have got off to an incredible start.

Titleist's recent launches have also seen their market share continue to increase too, so basically we have some great products to use when we do our fittings.

A custom fit session is FREE and we will assess your swing and analyse your clubs performance using our industry leading GC2 launch monitor to help determine which new models will suit you best. These sessions are great fun for both us and you!

Here's an example of what has been achieved this week. Phil Sinton achieved a gain of 23 yards average on his 7 iron when fit for the TaylorMade M2 iron, and then an average gain of 15 yards using the new PING SF "G" driver, but just as important they were much straighter!!

I hope your golfing partners don't reduce the side bets with your new clubs Phil!!
