Apart from the snow on Sunday we have had plenty of golf this week. After being told the course is never closed, I am beginning to think it’s my fault. I am sure the good weather is just around the corner. We have been busy in the Shop, booking in new stock and planning.
Enjoy this week's newsletter. |
Great golf tournament on the PGA Tour at the weekend. The Arnold Palmer Invitational produces a good field and almost has the feel of tournament just below a major. I went to the final round 13 years ago when Tiger won. It’s an amazing place, and the shots they hit on some of them holes were quite staggering.
The 6th hole, par 5 with water all the way the left of the tee, and again follows the second shot left into the green. I sat watching them hit their second shots that day. It was great to see the very best at the time dissect that hole. The final round this year was brilliant to watch with Tiger, Rory, Rose, DeChambeau, and Stenson all in the mix. Tigers game is right there and is exciting to watch. I always thought when Rory hits top gear he is unbeatable, and an amazing golfer to watch. Rory missed cut the week before, but wins with some brilliant golf the week later. Golf is a fickle game and a lot about confidence.

It’s going to be some first major of the year, with a mixture of great players all peaking in form as they want to at the right times. Exciting times as you have golfers from the younger era, Spieth, Thomas, Rory, and the great champions such as Mickelson, and Tiger all hitting form. Who is going to win? Let us know your thoughts here This week is the World Golf Championship Matchplay in Austin Texas. |
Dates to Look Forward to
Golf IN Scotland Us Masters Texas Scramble on the 15th of April 2018.
It’s a great event with one winning team going through to the final. From there one group will win a trip to the 2019 Masters. Pretty amazing prize.

I even managed a game on Tuesday myself this week. Very enjoyable and the greens were putting beautifully. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Course update I managed to play 18 holes on Tuesday again this week. Thought the greens were good speed, and the course played nicely. The sun even came out. Please, rake bunkers with the rake correctly. I watched a golfer play from the 1st hole bunker, and then walk right out of it. Take time and leave as you would expect please.
When out on the course please remember:
- To repair pitch marks (far too many out there right now) - Keep trolleys away from greens and off tee boxes - Keep the buggies away from greens and banks - Look after your course!!

If you’ve been in the pro shop recently you’ll have seen lots of new products displayed proudly around the store, many of which are new for 2018. One that’s generated quite a bit of interest is adidas’ Tour360 BOOST 2.0 golf shoe, but did it live up to its billing? |
| adidas Tour360 BOOST 2.0 Review | More and more of us now look to reviews to help narrow down our options and make an informed purchase. When it comes to footwear this should be no different, so take a look at this video where Foremost TV reviews the latest hero offering from adidas. |
