What are your goals for 2020?

This week I thought I would write about goal setting for this year. Goal setting has been proven to improve motivation and performance so I think it is important for you to all get something in place for this year. Here are a few things for you to consider:

1) How much time are you going to put into your game? Try and find a weekly spot in your diary to practice
2) Are you keeping a record of your stats? % Fairways, % Greens in regulation, % scrambling etc.
3) Which area of your game needs the most work and how should you break up your practice time?
4) Ensure your goals are not just based around scores but also around the different areas of your game

Now is a great time to be looking at all of these areas for this year and I am offering you the opportunity to come along for a 2020 swing assessment and goal setting discussion for just £9.99. If you would like to sign up for this please follow the button below to get in touch.

Competition results

Simister Cup Round 4

Congratulations to Gary Johnstone for winning the fourth round of the Simister Cup with 20 points. Gordon Stewart, Andy Slater and Joe Yakub all scored 18 points.

Winter League

We were blessed with another nice Sunday morning last week for the first match of 2020. The Captain and I were taking on Nige Pugh and Brian Foden. Brian putted us out of the match last year so we knew it was going to be tough. After exchanging birdies on 2, 3 and 5, Nige and Brian were one up before I missed a short putt for birdie on 6. We then halved the next three to make the turn one down.

The Captain started playing some nice golf after that to win five of the next six holes to win the match 4 and 3. It was a nice armchair ride for me!

Team Johnstone/Davies/Mcguinness/Olsen also won meaning we are two points clear with two games to go. Next week we are taking on the dangerous pair of Matt Spiller and Simon Barber so I had better get practicing to try and find my golf swing before then!

Ready. Set. Go.

Hands up if you’re still feeling stuffed from the excessive (but highly enjoyable) eating over the festive period...

We’re not going to ask anything too strenuous of you this week as we ease our way into the new year so don’t worry! Instead, take a quick look at the image below and see if any of it looks familiar to you.

With a new season upon us and plenty of new products arriving in your local pro shop over the next few months (more on this in the coming weeks), now’s the perfect time to wave goodbye to the old tatty golf shoes, the worn-out gloves in a pile at the bottom of your bag, and the golf balls with more scuff marks than dimples!

If you’re the type of golfer who keeps on top of their equipment then we salute you but if any of the above rings true, pop by the shop this weekend and give your stuff a winter MOT. We’re always here to help.

All you need and more

Cold hands are fun for no-one and neither is getting soaked from an unexpected shower whilst out on the course. Fortunately, both of these issues are easily eradicated by a few simple accessories from our friends at Motocaddy.

Whether you need an umbrella holder, scorecard holder or wheel covers, we have a great selection in your local pro shop – after all, what’s more annoying than having to dig your tatty scorecard out of your pocket after every hole!

That’s not all though as our personal favourite - the brand new Hot Mitts (pictured centre above) - ensure your hands stay toasty warm between shots thanks to a fleece lining and three different heat settings. Definitely, worth a try!

Product spotlight

PING's G410 Plus driver

Unfortunately, we all miss the fairway from time-to-time (some of us more than others) but the question we'd like to ask you is:

Are you giving yourself the best chance of finding the short stuff?

What we love most about PING's G410 Plus driver is that we can move the weight into a draw, fade or neutral setting to help you fight your common miss. So, if you have a slice we can put this into a draw setting for you to promote a right-to-left ball flight.

Video of the Week

To kick start 2020, here's a hilarious video of some of your favourite golfers being impersonated by one of the best in the business. We promise it'll have you in stitches!

I hope you have enjoyed this week's update.
We hope to see you soon
