Tuesday, April 23, 2024 | Email us | zwartkopcc.greensidegolfer.com | Tel: 012 654 2111 | | We were really hoping we’d have at least one hole-in-one on the 12th Hole over the Festive period. Well to be fair we did have one – by Ziyaad Rabaney on Sunday, 30th December, but unfortunately he hadn’t taken on the Hole-in-One Challenge and therefore didn’t win a 10-year membership to Zwartkop valued at R200,000.00 – ouch!
There were daily Nearest-the-Pins prizes on the 12th over the same period with the intention that if there was no Hole-in-One, then the Closest to the Pin over this whole period would win a Tag Heuer watch valued at R25,000.
That prize has gone to Chris Dixon – well done Chris! Check out the video of him being given his prize. | | |
Our thanks to everyone that participated in the Hole-in-One Challenge – we hope you had fun! The Jokers Wild Draw pot is standing at R10 435! Congrats to Raymond Seeber who won Friday’s Lucky Draw but sadly he did not pick the Jokers Card. We now have 39 potential cards remaining under which you can still find the elusive Joker! We serve cocktails and have live music every Friday and the Jokers Wild Card Draw gets done at 18:30. 2019 League… League gets under way later this month and Zwartkop has entered the following teams for the 2019 season: • Handicap League (2 teams) - starts 20 Jan (captained by Neil Goosen & Devon du Toit) • Senior Scratch League (2 teams) - starts 26 Jan (captained by Chris Delport & Neil Goosen) • Senior Handicap League: starts 7 Feb (captained by Platjie Klaasen) • Open Scratch League - starts 10 Feb (captained by Brent Goddard) • Junior league (2 teams): starts 21 July (captained by Francois Anderson & Robert Oosthuizen) • Mid-Am Scratch League - starts 3 Aug (captained by Chris Delport) Should any member handicapped at Zwartkop be interested in playing in any of these teams, please contact the Club Captain Chris Delport on chrisd@grofin.com or 079 510 9062.

| | | | Revealing the lie | | The key to accuracy is flawed | | We suspect that you all realise that the lie angle on your irons is of paramount importance to your ability to hit solid and accurate approach shots. | | | | You may even have read the research that reveals that for every 1° your lie angle is too flat or upright, you’ll be 10 feet wide of the target with a perfectly hit #5 iron. So you’d appreciate why we’re alarmed by some research we did ourselves. The standard lie angle for different brands is different! | | | | That’s right, the first three models we checked (all game improvement models) from three different brands, all had different standard lie angles! That means you might be standard with one model and 1° upright with another. | | Every purchase needs a fitting | | No one should buy golf equipment (any golf club) without a fitting. As this research shows, even for the most important component of an iron; the part that controls accuracy; it’s critical to get fitted for your swing AND the model being selected. Make it easier to hit better golf shots. | | Get fitted > | | | | | The best for you | | Why make this journey? | | We want to help as many of you as possible find new levels of joy and fulfillment from your golf. Experience that sweet moment, when you make perfect contact and the ball flies high and long, and you know why you come back again. | | | | | We want more smiles. More times that you follow your shot and think “How cool is that!”. More moments of joy. More causes for celebration. | | | If inconsistent ball striking blights your game | let us improve your ability to make solid, square contact. | | | | | Get a better experience | | What would cause you to smile more often on the golf course? What would give you cause for celebration?
