I am pleased to announce that Europe's leading Mind Coach, Karl Morris will be coming to Eaton Golf Club on May 11 to present his "Mind Factor - How to shoot five shots lower" workshop. Karl has worked with many of the finest tour pro's such as Darren Clarke, Louis Ousthuizen, Graeme Mcdowell, Charl Schwartzel and Lee Westwood.
This is a unique opportunity to learn some of the techniques used by these top players and apply them to your own game. I am offering this fantastic evening at an "early Bird" offer rate of £20 per ticket to Eaton Golf Club Members and subscribers to this newsletter.
Click here to find out more about it.
This offer will be available until Thursday, 5 March after which tickets will cost the full value of £25 each.
Make sure you do not miss this great event by contacting one of the pro shop team now. Our pro shop events schedule for 2015 is coming together nicely with two more dates for your diary being confirmed this week.
15 April - Bridgestone Ball Fitting Day
24 April - Titleist Demo Day
I have also arranged a partnership between ourselves and Phil Mortimer at the Osteopathic Consultancy.
The Pro Shop team have been having treatment over the Winter months to improve our strength and mobility.
As a result of this partnership Phil will be extending a 20% discount on intial consultations for Eaton Golf Club Members. (Cost £35 )
We are also working on a date for him to come and do a presentation for us here at the club.
I am doing some strength tests next week and will report back on how they go. Certainly in my intial treatment Phil's diagnosis related very closely to the things I struggle with in my own swing.
If you are interested in taking advantage of this offer ring Phil on 01603 664459 or email him at info@osteopathic-consultancy.com
I have been conducting quite a few game assessments over the last couple of weeks, helping members with the best Lesson plans for their games. 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 February I am offering these assessments free so if you would like to make 2015 your best ever golfing year please contact one of the Pro Shop team to make an appointment.
Ladies 'on Course' Coaching
We had another one of our Ladies On course coaching sessions last week and had a great turnout. We covered strategies for playing holes 5-9. The next session is Thursday, 12 February @ 11.30am and we will announce the date of the last one shortly.
Winter Short Game challenge up and running!
The Short Game Challenge is proving to be just that! We have had lots of interest with several members signing up to have unlimited go's through the winter. Top of the leader board now is Finlay Heywood with 61 points which is an excellent score and could take some beating. Come and have a go and try to win a brand new wedge!
Winter MOT
Why not have an equipment check before the new season to make sure your clubs are the best for your game. To help you chose the correct grip we have now installed a Grip Bar in store so we can go through the fitting process.
Book an appointment with one of the Pro Shop team and have Grips, shafts, loft and lies and set composite analysed. We are running these equipment check sessions free through February to make sure your clubs are actually helping you.
After the recent cold snap it was great to see so many people playing in the Monthly Stableford at the weekend and there was some impressive scoring.

Price Match Policy, Non Stocked Products and Annual Product Survey
As I have stated recently please remember that we can source product we do not stock and will always endeavour to price match where we can. Your business is very important to us and we appreciate every opportunity to secure it.
I would also like to make you aware that as part of Foremost Golf, the UK's largest buying group, we can source products through our central warehousing even if we don't stock the product on the shop floor.
EBAY Shop
We now have an EBAY shop! If you have any old clubs post 2000 this is the time to sell them. All you need to do is drop them into the shop, we will assess them, put them straight onto our site at a sensible selling price and if they sell the money goes on your golf shop account. You will be surprised just how quick we can turn your old clubs into ££££'s. Only this week I have managed to liquidate some clubs for a couple of our members so that they can look at new equipment.
