DUE TO THE MONSOON WEATHER WE HAVE HAD OF RECENT WEEKS, COURSE MANAGER AND THE COURSE DIRECTOR HAVE NOW DECIDED THAT WINTER WHEELS ARE A MUST FOR THE GOLF COURSE.
Whilst normal, flat wheels are allowed on the paths and rough only, investing in Winter wheels will save you time and hopefully put less miles on your round
Benefits
Powakaddy Winter Wheels (Pair)
Non Clogging Open Tread Design
– Use your electric golf trolley in winter / wet conditions
– Unique patented* design fits most Powakaddy electric trolleys
– Minimal ground contact protects fairways and courses
– Non clogging open tread design
– Reduces tyre marks on the course
– Developed in association with green keepers and course managers
Motocaddy S Series Hedgehog Winter Wheels
Improved Traction During Wet Conditions
Transform your Motocaddy S Series into the perfect winter trolley by making it suitable to use even in the worst weather conditions.
The outer of the wheels feature the ‘Hedgehog’ design which helps to prevent the wheel of your trolley from skidding on the wet ground. These wheels should be suitable if your course allows them even during trolley bans.
– Easy to fit and remove.
The Pro Shop will be making a large order at the end of this week (25th October) or early part of next week. If you would like to purchase a pair of winter wheels please call the shop on 01708688333 or email [email protected]

Why is ball position so important to become a better Putter?
Let us explain….
In an ideal world, the strike of a putt should be on the upward/ascending arc for a more efficient roll.
If the ball is positioned incorrectly in our stance in relation to our front and back foot. This can make you hit too much down on the ball effecting the roll but also effectting our strike and putter path.
A simple key to check if yours is correct….
Take your set up and drop a ball from your lead eye (left – for a right handed golfer). Where that ball drop is the ideal place to position the ball in set up.
For lesson bookings and general enquiries please contact the pro shop 01708688333 or if you like what you have seen email Reece direct [email protected] or fill out the contact form underneath.

Striking the ball from the centre of your iron face is the best way to maximise distance and efficiency.
Let me break it down.
Sweet spot – The point on the clubface which feels the best – we all know those shots where you “didn’t even feel it”. Hitting the sweet spot results in minimal twisting of the club, maximum energy transference to the ball, and warm, fuzzy feelings inside – you will see longer shots with more consistency.
The Not-So-Sweet-Spot
Anywhere not in the centre hahaha
But what happens when we miss the sweet spot?
In this video Sergio Garcia’s driver off the deck shows what really happens when a ball is mis-hit it, we see the crazy effect it had on the clubhead.
