Darren Close Moving On

Darren has made the decision to leave South Beds Golf Club and move on to a new challenge at Letchworth Golf Club, his final working day will be Sunday 7th October.

I would personally like to thank Darren for all that he has done for myself and the golf club over the last few years, and I’m sure I speak for everyone when I wish him the very best of luck as he progresses in his career.

Thanks, Darren and all the best.

PGA Captain/Pro Challenge

Club Captain Doug Christie and I are representing South Beds Golf Club in the East of England PGA Captain/Pro Challenge today at East Herts Golf Club. The event is a fourball betterball medal qualifying event, with the winners progressing to the grand final which is taking place at Castillo Hotel Son Vida and Son Muntaner Golf Club, Mallorca in November.

SkyCaddie Watch Lottery

Congratulations to Chris Chaplen who had the winning number in our SkyCaddie GPS watch lottery which was drawn at the weekend.

Chris, your new watch is waiting for you in the Pro Shop. Well done!

The Titleist Golf Ball Lottery will be drawn next weekend and we only have a few numbers remaining, so pop in to the pro shop and give yourself the chance to win 15 Titleist Pro V 1 golf balls for £1.00.

New In-store

The new apparel and outerwear for autumn/winter is starting to arrive in-store. This week we saw the arrival of our first ever club crested waterproof suits from PING, available for men and ladies. We also received the new range of club crested lined sweaters from Cutter & Buck which have proved to be very popular over the last few years. Apparel from Under Armour and Glenmuir is also arriving over the next few weeks. Pop in and see if we have something that suits your style.

Bushnell Rangefinders

There have been quite a few of you asking when the Bushnell Rangefinders were due back in-store, well I can now tell you that they will be in stock from Monday. Apologies for the delay.

Skechers Sale

Just a reminder that we have 10% off our Skechers Elite golf shoes. We only have a few pairs remaining so get in quick to take advantage of this deal. Due to the demand for these shoes over the year, styles and sizes are limited and we can no longer order any shoes in as there are virtually none left in the whole of Europe.

The 2019 models will be available from March; more details will be available in the New Year.

Cleveland RTX 3 Wedge Sale

We only have 4 of the popular Cleveland RTX 3 wedges remaining in stock and we are reducing the price by a massive £30. We have 1 of each of the following lofts - 54, 56, 58 and 60 degrees, right hand only.

Now only £69.00

We don’t expect these to be around for long so get in quick.

Pressure putts

With the Ryder Cup coming up next week, we can expect plenty of tense moments, particularly on the greens. You’ll probably notice that players on both sides will have the ability to hole out under huge amounts of pressure – who can forget Ian Poulter’s clutch putt on the 16th green at Medinah in 2012?

Find a putter you can trust
To replicate these kind of putts, whether that's in the monthly medal or playing for money with your friends, you need to choose a flatstick you can trust.

Why not try out one of Scotty Cameron’s Futura putters? The current range involves several high-MOI mallets with tour-proven shapes, as well as improved alignment features and feel.

Some of the best players in the world, such as Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth, have Scotty putters in the bag, so you can be sure you’ll be in good company.

A, V or X?

Choosing the right golf ball for your game is crucial to getting the most out of your time spent on the course. Luckily, Titleist has covered all bases and can provide you with a range of premium golf balls - Pro V1, Pro V1x and the brand new AVX – of which one will be best suited to your game.

The AVX is perfect for golfers who prioritise distance and extremely soft feel with a piercing, low ball flight, and has been engineered to be the lowest spinning and softest feeling golf ball out of these three models.

The Pro V1 is designed to provide total performance for every player and deliver consistency on every shot. It is softer than the Pro V1x and has a penetrating ball flight that sits between the other two models on show.

The Pro V1x gives you the highest launch of these three balls, resulting in extraordinary distance from the tee. As with the Pro V1, this ball features Titleist's renowned Drop-and-Stop greenside control.

Video of the Week

Mizuno's irons have been in the bag of multiple Majors winners in recent years and will no doubt be used in next week's Ryder Cup. With this in mind, Foremost TV has taken a closer look at their brand new JPX919 series, which is comprised of three stunning models.

I hope you enjoyed the newsletter and have a great week.
