 From Pierre's Desk

I'm writing from a chilly Johannesburg. The PGA of South Africa’s National Championship was at the beautiful Bryanston Country Club over the last couple of days.

The course was a magnificent test and probably some of the toughest greens I have putted on. I caped a good week with a top 10 finish. I am happy with how I played, and I am looking forward to next year’s championship in the Western Cape.


I would like to remind all of you to play your Matchplay games before the deadline. It is important that we get the games in so that we can finish all the rounds on time.

Next week is out Tee 4 Two event and I am looking forward to hosting all of our couples at San Lameer.  The course recovered well and will be in good condition for the event.

Have a great weekend.
Happy golfing

  Mind your gaps
  Tools for the long approach

Many golfers struggle with the gap between their #3-wood and #5-iron. This can make long approaches particularly difficult to deal with. What clubs do you play here? Two great options are the #5-wood and the 2-hybrid (18°). But how do you know which of these options suits you best?

Let's find out


The similar, or even identical, loft between #5-wood and 2-hybrid (18°) means the overall distance will also be similar, but the way that distance is covered is what differs between the two. For instance:

 
Woods tend to launch higher and have more carry. This could give you the landing angle you need to you hold the green.
     
 
The longer shaft on woods produce higher clubhead speed that often translates into higher spin rates.



 
 
Are you going for the green from 160-180 metres? Then you’ll want the club that gives you more carry and a steeper landing angle. Do you tend to generate more spin? Then you’ll want the club that helps reduce spin. The best way to know which one suits you is to come in for a swing assessment and fitting.


    Fill the gaps
Skill level doesn’t matter. Every golfer should be using a set of clubs that makes the game easier and more enjoyable. Let’s make sure you are.

  Great feelings
 Looking at opportunity, but


It’s a great feeling having found the middle of the fairway after a solid tee shot. That might not happen too often. Now you’re in a position of opportunity. How do you feel with your #6 or #7 iron in hand? Doubtful? Or “who knows”?


Feeling keen, excited, and confident follows on from developing a little more consistency with your iron ball striking. That doesn’t require us to change your swing. It’s small, simple improvements that get the club face back to the ball a little more square to target.


   Make it a great feeling
It’s small steps to much better feelings out on the course. Let us examine your ball striking and find the simple and small improvements.
