Renovations 2019

Maintenance Week

It was a busy week, but the weather played ball thankfully. I’m pleased to say the flags will be returned to all 18 greens by mid-morning on Friday. The insecticide was applied later that morning.

This year we’ve applied 120 tonnes of sand and broadcast 100kgs of bent seed. An extremely worthwhile exercise.

There was a reasonably smooth surface to play from Friday this has improved each day as we started mowing again from Monday.

TaylorMade equipment is played by some of the world's best golfers, such as Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson. In fact, they both use TaylorMade's TP5 or TP5x golf balls, too.

They're also some of the longest and straightest guys on Tour, which is partly down to the golf balls and the impressive M5 and M6 drivers.

So, for a short time only, we're going to give away two dozen TP5 or TP5x golf balls for FREE with every M5 or M6 driver that we sell - just so you can see the results for yourself.

Cover story

This might sound a little complicated but just give us a chance on this one...

Urethane vs Ionomer? Both are materials used on the cover of golf balls but what is the difference between them and how does each affect your game?

TaylorMade TP5 - Urethane cover

You'll usually find that balls at the premium end of the market, like the TP5 and TP5x, have Urethane covers due to its noticeably softer feel and fantastic feedback, which is why they're the go-to choice for many Tour pros.

TaylorMade Project (s) - Ionomer cover

On the other hand, Ionomer is cheaper to produce which is why you'll find them on less expensive balls, like the Project (s). These balls tend to spin less off the tee, which is why Ionomer features on balls that prioritise distance over feel.

A warmer option

As we begin the inevitable slide to Christmas (yes, I said it), it's time to ditch the shorts for some warmer layers. Fortunately, we have a range of mid-layers and jackets available through us that will keep you warm and dry whilst successfully battling the elements this winter.

Layer up with Glenmuir

There used to be a time when 'layering' meant chucking on as many clothes as you possibly could in order to keep warm on a winter's day, which regularly resulted in problems when it came to swinging a club.

Luckily for us, today's golf clothing has come a long way in recent years. Not only will you be proud to wear outfits from Glenmuir's collection above, but the addition of cresting available means you can creat your own unique piece of club wear.
