Card Confusion

There has been lots of confusion over the new card introduced by the club.

I would like to confirm the card has NOTHING to do with your Pro Shop account. The shop account is a credit account where vouchers can be held for future use in the Pro Shop.


An Expert Fit

Lewis White started with our team on Monday, 6 February. Lewis holds a handicap of plus 3 at Northampton Golf Club and is a 7 time Club Champion, he has represented Northamptonshire county teams from under 13 level to currently being a member of the full gent's squad. 

He joins us with a vast experience of golf club custom fitting amounting to 8 years. The 2 of which most recent have been with Titleist where he has been one of their most respected fitters. 

Lewis
will be in the pro shop and in charge of our custom fitting operations in the new studio. If you have any questions regarding custom fitting of any golf equipment don't hesitate to speak to him.

Lewis will be making club fitting the centrepiece of his daily activities. He will be equipped with the highest level of fitting equipment available to us as authorised fitters. Alongside our new state of the art GC2 launch monitor Lewis will be able to offer a high level of service for golfers who want an in-depth and thorough fitting experience. 

Fitting is not just above purchasing clubs, there will be wedge gapping helping you find the best lofts for you wedges or just making sure you know your distances throughout your bag. Lewis will be using the number one ball in golf, namely the Titleist ProV1 to fit with so the accuracy of his fittings will be unrivalled.

Look out for regular articles from Lewis in our newsletter.
