Congratulations to Keith Doyle and Steve Bennett for winning Divisions 1 and 2 of the Pro's 9 hole Stableford. Both of them scored 22 points.
Steve has also taken an early lead in the winter aggregate with 40 points after two rounds. There are still plenty of weeks left for you all to catch him.
Sunday saw us play the fourth round of the winter league, The Vice Captain and I took on Bob Anderson and Andy Dibble. We managed to get off to a fast start with four birdies in the first four holes to go four up. Bob and Andy staged a comeback and by the 8th had pegged us back to 2 up. After that we managed to hold on to win the match 3 and 2.
Next week we are taking on Andy Wells and Gavin Elly.
Andy thrashed the Captain and I last year but his handicap is now 6 shots lower so hopefully we stand more of a chance this year.

How did Ben improve his consistency?
Ben has been working hard on his swing over the past few months. His common faults are losing shots to the left and also inconsistent striking. We quickly observed that his hips were sliding rather than rotating, which was leading to the club reaching its lowest point before the ball and the clubface closing too early. This can be seen in the 'before' photo.
As you can see in the 'after' photo, Ben is turning more effectively and avoiding any leg/hip slide which is allowing him to strike the ball more consistently and avoid the clubface closing too quickly through impact.
If you would like to improve your swing like Ben, please

We offer an introductory lesson for
£9.99 for all new customers.
