The season has arrived and with it some freezing cold weather and even some snow in Linlithgow (last Monday). Over the last few weeks I have had lots of people telling me about the rush for opening day tee times, but I was still shocked to see so many cars in the carpark last Saturday when I drove in at 7am! A special mention has to go to Kenny Ambrose who I am told was first here on Saturday morning, as he claims to have arrived at 4.30am. I am sure there wouldn't have been many ahead of him in the queue!
Well done to all those who attended last week's sports dinner, sounds like I missed a great night, when my wife allows me to do so, I will be sure to get involved in the future!
I would like to remind everyone to book their tee times this weekend for our "Bring A Friend To Golf Day", which will run alongside the final day of the U.S. Masters Final round on Sunday, 12 April. Remember this is a great opportunity for you to bring a friend who may be interested in membership or even someone interested in winning my "Green shirt" prize for just a £5 entry fee! Make sure you organise your taxi from the clubhouse for late on Sunday night, to enjoy the final round of the golf in your very own clubhouse!
Club fitting off to a flying start!
We have had some great results this week in our indoor fitting studio and I am happy to report that one of our very own members (will not mention names incase I add any additional pressure for opening day!) left the shop with a nice new Titleist 915 D2 driver.
After we spent some time doing a like-for-like comparison against two of his own drivers, I am happy to report not only distance gains, but also better launch angles and flight trajectories. Some times we might feel that we are able to hit the ball a long way, but have never really thought about poor trajectory affecting both accuracy and distance. For those of you who are not aware, we have some of the best club fitting equipment available on the golf market in the form of FlightScope X2 ball flight radar in your very own professional shop!
Have you been thinking about upgrading your equipment recently or even wondered how to get more from your drives? To book yourself in for a custom fitting session please click here or even pop into the shop and I will be happy to have a chat about what we can offer.
Baby Watch
I am writing this mail on Monday 30th and to date we still have no baby (are you guys as bored as my wife about this story dragging on!?). Now that my wife is 10 days over it is looking likely that the baby will be here by Wednesday at the latest! Does anyone have any spare tee times for Saturday for the baby to join in?
To run alongside this years opening medal, I have put together a few special promotions for this coming weekend only!
