The Game changer has Arrived - GC2 Launch Monitor
Our teaching and club fitting capability has now been advanced even further with the introduction of the GC2 Launch Monitor. This is the best technology available on the market and is used by most of the manufacturers to fit clubs. It provides the most accurate information available with its unique smart camera
system giving launch angle, backspin rates, sidespin rates, ball speed and carry distance.
One of the first members to take advantage of this technology was John Morgan-Hughes who had a wedge fitting. We identified that he had a gap between his PW and SW and have decided to add a 50 degree Gap wedge to fill it. I also looked at the spin rates he was creating and recommended the best ball for his game.
Here is a photo from the Performance fitting app, which shows his results. I also had a session with Jayson Elkins looking at which shaft was best for him to put in his PING 3 wood to give him the right distance and trajectory.
If you would like to be one of the first to have a club fitting, lesson, gap test or Ball fitting on the GC2 please speak to one of the Pro Shop team.

Do you know how far you hit the ball?
Over recent weeks I have been conducting quite a few gapping sessions for members. This is where I or one of the pro shop team will spend 45 minutes measuring your distances on our ES14 Launch Monitor and record them for you making sure you have the correct set composite. These sessions are available at
a special price of only £20. Contact one of the Pro Shop team to arrange an appointment.
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.
