The winners were John McHarg, Patrick Marcks, Laurie Bryant and Pete Milton with a score of 63.2. in second place were Kevin Crumell, Stuart Weston and Eric Baldwin with 64.2. The nearest the pin prizes were won by Bill Keys and Paul Bentley. Congratulations to all who took part.

Waterproofs to wear anywhere

It’s no secret that buying a good-quality waterproof jacket is a worthwhile investment; perhaps even more so when it comes to golf since you want to not only stay dry but also move comfortably for 18 holes. That being said, our jacket shouldn’t be restricted to just the course, right?

FootJoy's HydroKnit waterproof jackets

Style is an important factor, too. We want to feel confident in the way we look whatever we’re doing. That’s why FootJoy designed their HydroKnit waterproof jacket to look great both on and off the course.

Whilst the HydroKnit jacket boasts all the golf performance you need, like stretch fabric and breathability, it also has a very smart and stylish appearance that works wherever you go. So, if you’re investing in a waterproof jacket this winter, this is one that you should definitely be considering!

It's in the bag!

You’ve got to be prepared for anything on the golf course, whether that’s somebody shouting ‘FORE!’ behind you or a sudden downpour. Given our local climate, I’d say the latter is a particular worry at the moment.

Motocaddy HydroFlex Waterproof Stand Bag

Motocaddy HydroFlex carry bag

Motocaddy has you covered. Well, they have your golf clubs and on-course accessories covered, at least. Both the Motocaddy HydroFlex stand bag and Dry-Series cart bag are made with a completely waterproof construction to shield your valuables in any weather.

2020's big Christmas quiz

Time for some festive fun (& quizzing)

As this is our final newsletter of 2020, we thought it would be fun to round off the year with our Christmas quiz.

We've gone through this year's golfing highlights and put together some easy (and some not so easy) questions for you to get your teeth stuck into!

P.S. it's an acrostic quiz where certain letters from each question make up a word - can you work out what the hidden word is?

Video of the Week

There are many people both home and abroad who we'd love to thank for helping us get through the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020. This week's video from the European Tour does exactly this, surprising a front-line doctor in Dubai at the season-ending DP World Tour Championship. What a special moment.
