| | Course designers are clearly in league with golf ball manufacturers. How many golf courses have a Par 3, about 5 Iron distance, with water on the right? They know that an Iron over 38“ long and less than 28° of loft has a good chance of going right. | | | | | | | Ten years ago, we told you that your 4 Iron loft had strengthened to become the same loft as the previous year’s 3 Iron. Your 5 Iron will today have the same loft as that 3 Iron. | Without question, most golfers ought to be replacing their 5 Iron with a Hybrid. They should be investing in improving their technique. And smiling as they walk up to their ball on the green. It makes it easier to enjoy the geese! It also means you’re buying less golf balls. | | | | Bring your problem distance to us. Let us spend time whether improving your technique with an existing club, or filling the gap with a better solution. Come and spend 45 minutes with us, and let’s see how best to fill that gap. | | |

| | We want more golfers to have a great experience out on the golf course. To do that, you don’t have to take on the same challenge as Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy, Jason Day, Louis Oosthuizen, Shangsan Feng or Lexi Thompson. In fact, you already don’t play the same length golf course they do. So, let’s play more formats that make it more enjoyable for more golfers. | | | | PGA Junior League is a format that combines a competitive element with a game that stays ‘in play’ longer (2v2 over 3x3 holes), with the playability benefits of a Scramble format. There are 3 ‘flags’ to be won. If you’re playing 18, why not play 2v2 better ball scramble, over 3x6 holes? | | And actually, why not find time to play nine in this format (3x3 holes), before or after your day? Or nine on a Sunday afternoon with the family? | | | | You can still have friendly competition, but it’s likely that this is a much more social format: you come together on the tee; for the 2nd shot; and on the green. That’s more fun together. | | | Try it. Try and think of different ways to play the game, to allow the less skilled the opportunity to get much more enjoyment from the experience. Or for you to change it up and enjoy yourself more. And if you need help finding more fairways on your own, then | | |
