Hello Golfers,

Welcome to another edition of our newsletter. This week we recap Tiger Woods’ ‘edge of the seat’ Masters win (what else would you expect?), we pit two of our favourite shoes head-to-head, and we have a enthralling Video of the Week that's sure to get your golfing juices flowing once again.

Enjoy the read.

With the season now well-underway, have you asked yourself the important question – is your game in shape? If the answer is no, then why not get yourself booked in with a lesson/fitting with one of our PGA Professionals and see where your game can go.

Tour news

Woods you believe it?

It would take a heart of stone not to have been moved by Tiger’s Masters victory on Sunday night. Sure, the American divides opinion when it comes to his off-course antics, but that should take nothing away from the magnitude of his victory at the most famous of tournaments.

Two-years ago, Woods required a nerve-blocker just to attend the Champions' Dinner and all but admitted his game was done. A spinal fusion surgery later and Tiger has completed arguably the greatest comeback of all time.

Tiger's triumph was matched by Molinari's misfortune, with the Italian squandering a two-shot lead on the back-nine as he found the water twice in the space of four holes.

With the next two Majors taking place at courses where the great man has won before - Bethpage Black and Pebble Beach - could we be in-store for something special in 2019?

A touch of class...

Our latest collection of clothing has been sitting in-store for a few weeks now and, in our opinion, there's never been a better selection. From loud to safe colours, regular to athletic fit, and bold to classic designs, we really do have something for everyone this spring.

Glenmuir Haddington polo

Available with our club's crest

Some of our favourite pieces have to be these club-crested beauties from Glenmuir, who pride themselves on their craftsmanship having supplied the European Ryder Cup team on numerous occassions in the past.

This stylish Haddington polo is one the best picks, with three great-looking colour options allowing you to stand out on the course for all the right reasons. Its subtle hexagonal print on the chest adds a little bit of flare to a classic two-colour design, and we think you'll love its four-way stretch fabric that offers such enjoyable comfort.

We have a host of club-crested product available in-store, which make for the perfect present for a loved one (or yourself) so be sure to pop in next time you're down the club.

Let the battle commence

Classic or sporty? Colourful or traditional? Style is a personal choice and with brands offering up any number of designs, we have never had so much choice when it comes to your footwear options. With this in mind, we pit two styles up against one another in the ultimate battle of the shoes.

Which will you choose?

The battle between sporty and traditional purely comes down to taste but one thing is undeniable, both the adidas Tour360 XT and 4ORGED shoes will have you oozing confidence at address whichever one your taste swings towards.

In the red corner we have the Tour360 XT-SL. Boasting a more traditional look and the flagship design of adidas’ range, the shoe is a favourite of major champion Dustin Johnson and it's not hard to see why thanks to breathable protection and midsole cushioning for supreme comfort throughout your round.

In the blue corner we have the sporty 4ORGED shoe that gives the wearer more of a trainer look that is so popular on Tour. Enhanced stability through lateral support and Adiwear traction on the outsole gives a high level of performance with style and comfort in mind.

Both shoes are worthy winners but which is your favourite?

We have a great footwear offering in-store so be sure to pop in and try some on to ensure you get the perfect fit.

Video of the Week

22 years on from his first Green Jacket, Tiger answered questions surrounding his ability to win another major title in emphatic fashion on Sunday afternoon. Now there's just one question remaining: will he reach Jack's record of 18 major triumphs?

I hope you enjoyed the newsletter. Have a great weekend.
