Vouchers - Still cannot decide or you live outwith the area? We can provide vouchers or goods from our shop or for lessons for any amount to suit you - just email us or call us on 01250 873116 and we will arrange it all for you.
Custom Fit - It is my belief that a golfer will only play their best golf with equipment that suits them properly. Everyone is different in the way they swing the club, in their physical abilities and in their stature so "off the peg" clubs don’t always suit.
We have an extensive range of demo equipment from leading manufacturers such as Callaway, Ping, Titliest, Taylor-Made etc and we are available to join you on our practice facilities to custom-fit you with equipment to best suit your abilities. To complement our professional expertise and experience we also have state of the art ‘launch monitor’ equipment which accurately assess data such as club head speed, angle of attack and launch all of which helps you to be confident you are getting the best advice available.
