Titleist hosted a Partners Conference in Newport RI. from October 1st to October 3rd, which included PGA Professionals who are on Staff with Titleist. Click here to see what happened at the conference. Golf Simulator Open House – November 10th With the weather starting to turn, now is a great time to get your winter golf practice/lesson program organized. We have a great facility to take advantage of and keep your golf game in shape during the upcoming winter months. I’ve found that just some routine practice keeps my golf muscles in shape and short game still sharp. The indoor center at Glen View Club has two hitting bays with video and is a great way to work on possible swing changes in a controlled environment without the visual effect of ball flight. With our TrackMan unit and our golf simulator, you can still see what your ball flight would look like. | Many members have asked about the equipment downstairs and how to use it. To make it easier, Chris Green and I will be holding an Open House on Saturday, November 10th from 8-11am in the Pro Shop Basement to walk everyone through how to use the equipment and see all of the options that members have available. You will also be able to get your winter lesson program set up that day as well. TS is Titleist Speed. The total redesign of a driver to deliver speed that matters to you.

| | Many better players have a lower trajectory with a slight draw; and lots of run out. While they may be consistent; the challenges of the hole, rough, trees, bunkers and water; often get the better of them because of their longer run-out. | | | | | The extra 20 yards matter. They turn #5 iron approach shots into #7 irons. But the 35-yard improvement in carry distance will allow the driver to be used on more holes, turning #4 irons into #7 irons. That’s a game-changer. | | | There’s a Driver DNA – ball speed, launch angle, & spin rate. We need to match those when fitting you for a Driver. How close is your Driver to your Launch DNA now? Do you have 20 yards or more of performance in the right DNA? Come and see us. Let’s unlock your potential to thrill. | | |

| | Each golfer will have a point in their bag where ball striking starts to become a little too inconsistent. As you go up the bag from the pitching wedge the shaft gets longer (in most sets) and the loft gets stronger. A longer shaft and stronger loft will test your technique. | | | | There will be clubs that you’re confident using; able to hit the green regularly with. Then you find a limit. For higher handicaps, it might be as early as the #8 iron. For mid-range handicaps, it might be the #6 iron. | | | | | Which is the longest club you can use on approach shots with any degree of confidence? Why not forget about handicap or scorecard, and set yourself a target to improve your technique so that your number moves 2 clubs higher? | | |
