Tip of the Week When playing out of a bunker that is hard pan (no sand under the ball) Rather than a regular bunker shot, when you should use the sole (bounce) of the club, you need to play it more like a chip. Try closing the face slightly and rather than hitting the sand first, hit the ball first. This will result in the ball coming out lower and faster than usual so weigh up how high the lip is first and if you feel you can't clear the lip there is no option but play out to the side. Please call into the shop with your results!!! The off season is a great time to get your game in shape, book a player asssessment with James and let's hit some new goals next season.
Kevin’s Teaching Corner I am still looking for a few dedicated and driven students for my “total game transformation” lesson package. Anyone looking to make impactful changes to their golf game and handicap should contact me as soon as possible. This is last call for that program, as we will not be able to complete the 20 hours, as intended, by end of February. I am still populating and running our autumn junior golf program. If you still want to get involved, I have a few classes and times that can still be filled. Do not hesitate to call me. We have small groups so there are various ages and ability levels to select from. I am going to be offering that assessment lesson throughout the winter that can be rolled into any of my lesson packages. If you are not sure about your swing; I can provide an overview of why you hit it the way you do, with an explanation on how to make it better. Be sure to book an appointment.
