Hello golfer,

Welcome to the latest edition of our weekly newsletter. In this week's email, we take a closer look at product that's currently sitting on the shelves in-store, our video of the week is something that you have probably never seen before, whilst we also shed some light on to what has us more excited than usual this week. Enjoy the read.

In the golfing world this week…

Did you see Tiger’s teaser on social media last week? Woods posted a video of him practicing his pitching on Thursday (watch video) with the comment, ‘Dr. gave me the ok to start pitching’. You’ll be aware that the 14-time major winner is recovering from his fourth back surgery but the question still remains: will he ever return to his best?

Taking place this week is the 2017 World Long Drive Championship in America. Britain’s best hope is Joe Miller - last year’s champion - but it’ll take something hugely impressive to beat World Number One Maurice Allen, whose longest drive this season is a mere 484 yards...

Increased ball speed and distance

Club Captain, Trevor Barker, popped in for a custom fitting recently and the results were impressive. Trevor was averaging 124 yards with his own 7 iron but when we fitted him for A TaylorMade M2 iron we saw a dramatic increase in ball speed and distance. With the TaylorMade M2 iron, Trevor topped out at 148 irons with a 7 iron, a increase in 24 yards! Trevor also achieved an average of 9 miles an hour faster ball speed, just have a look at the numbers in the graphic below. 

Why not book your own custom fitting to see if you are maximising your potential with your current clubs?
