Club news 

We are looking for equipment testing volunteers for 2016 - Last chance 

It's that time of year where lots of the manufacturers are launching new products in the market and I am looking for some members to volunteer to test it. I would like some members from all handicap categories to give me their opinion on certain equipment and then write a review which I will publish here in the newsletter. If you would like to get involved please click here or contact one of the pro shop team.

Fitting centre news    

We have had a busy week in our new "warm and dry" Swing centre giving lessons, fittings and Gapping sessions. We have also had some members use their £15 vouchers for a game on the Simulator and having a practice session. 

Everyone who has had a go throughout the week has been amazed at the accuracy of the GC2 Launch Monitor and the immediate feedback it gives you on your shots. It only takes about 1 hour to play the nine holes for a 2 ball and remember we have a range of courses including: The Belfry (Brabazon), Carnoustie, The Celtic Manor Resort, Kingsbarns, Oakmont Country Club, Royal Birkdale, Royal Troon, Turnberry - Ailsa Course for members to play. 

It's a great way of avoiding the winter weather and having a game in the warm and dry. 

Members Introductory Offers
 

A lot of people who attended our Launch Week really appreciated the practice benefits of the Swing centre. It allows you to practice in the warm and dry whilst getting some amazing immediate feedback on your shots. Why not kick start your practice for this new year by purchasing a Practice Package. This package gives you six 1/2 hour practice sessions for only £60 saving £30. 

Warm-up sessions now available at weekends between 8-10am - Hit 20 balls in the warm and dry before you play for only £2. Don't forget to book your warm up by contacting the Pro Shop in advance.

Hurry! Swing Centre Winter League Entry deadline extended.

With the introduction of the new Swing Centre we have decided to run a Winter League over the next 3 months, January, February and March. This will take a fourball better-ball stableford pairs format over 9 holes, across 3 different courses with the idea to complete one course each month. 

The three courses are: The Brabazon at The Belfry, Kingsbarns and The 2010 Course at Celtic Manor. Your 3 stableford scores across these courses will then be combined to give an overall total, and a position on our Winter League Leaderboard. 

There will Shop Vouchers for the top 3 pairs! The 3 rounds can be played at any time and booking for this is taken in the Pro Shop (we are advising pairs to join another pair to make up a 4 on each round). The cost to participate is £50 per pair and the closing date for signing up is now at the end of January. We have already had our first pair play their first round. Our Club Champion, Nic sperrin and Finn Heywood managed 17 points around the back nine at the Belfry so have set the standard. Book in at the Pro Shop and see if you can beat them.

AimPoint - Comes To Eaton Golf Club! - Wednesday, 16 March 2016 

Jamie Donaldson runs AimPoint Clinics across the globe for a wide range of golfers, from those on tour to the 28 handicapper looking to break 100. AimPoint Putting clinics are a fantastic way to learn the methods of the AimPoint Green Reading system which has transformed the putting of those who use it, many saying they enjoy the game more with increased putting confidence and putts holed.

Jamie currently teaches out of Brocket Hall Golf Club and Woburn Golf Club but will be delivering two clinics here at Eaton Golf Club on Wednesday, 16 March 2016, a morning and an afternoon session. Each session lasts 2 hours within which you learn either the AimPoint Express Level 1 green reading method. This is used by some of the top players in the world including Ian Poulter, Adam Scott, Justin Rose and Andy Sullivan to name a few 

There are only 8 spaces per session at a cost of £99 per person. Want to book your slot? Pop in to the Pro Shop to pay and reserve your place. Click here to find out more. 

Coaching news

Michael and myself will be running Group lessons for both Vets and Ladies in March and April. The sessions will focus on all areas of the game from Driving to the Short Game and will be an ideal opportunity to sharpen the game before the new season. The Vets session will be 9.30-10.30am and Ladies Session will be 11am-12pm on Wednesday mornings. 

Dates for these sessions are as follows: 2nd March, 9th March, 23rd March, 13th April, 20th April and 27th April. Book your place by contacting one of the Pro Shop team. 

 

Get your Game Assessed 

The New year is the perfect time to assess your game and look at the key areas in your game needing improvement. 

This is where I sit down over a cup of coffee with you and run through a series of questions and get you to measure your own game. Once I have done this I will also conduct a swing check. 

After going through this process I will then propose a lesson plan that will suit your game as well as assessing whether your equipment is giving you the best opportunity to optimise your game. 

Looking at these factors as well as your practice habits and mental game is key in getting the most out of your golf both in terms of performance and of course enjoyment. Throughout January and February Michael and I are offering these assessments FREE so if you would like to make 2016 your best ever golfing year please contact one of the Pro Shop team to make an appointment.
