The Dunham Forest Final

We reached the Dunham Forest Final on Saturday after beating Bramall Park GC 5-2 in the morning semi finals, but unfortunately got beaten by Nelson Golf Club in the final in the afternoon.

A tremendous effort to go so far by all the Dunham Forest Trophy Team.

Guess who’s back?

Rewind to May 2018 when Francesco Molinari had just lifted the BMW PGA Championship; he was only two months away from his first Major victory (The Open, of course) and without doubt the golden boy of European golf.

At that very same time, Englishman Danny Willett was going through a dramatic loss of form that saw his World Ranking drop from ninth following his Green Jacket in 2016 to 462nd just after Molinari was finishing up his champagne on Wentworth’s eighteenth.

After going through a raft of changes to find a way back to golf's elite, two huge wins have followed in the last eleven months with the second of those on Sunday at the BMW PGA Championship. A final-round 67 enabled Willett to pull away from Jon Rahm (who he shared the overnight lead with) by closing out with birdie-birdie to win by three and make it seven Tour titles in the 31-year-old’s career.

Welcome back, Danny.

These jaws have some bite

You’ve seen the film, now play the wedge that bears the Jaws name as Callaway’s fifth-generation Mack Daddy breaks cover with a new groove design that creates plenty of bite around the green.

Callaway's JAWS MD5 wedge

These wedges are all about trying to maximise spin so you can hit your wedge shots with confidence. It sounds ideal and it's achieved by a brand new JAWS groove design, which boasts extremely sharp edges for increased spin and control.

Callaway has continued with its Groove-In-Groove technology and it's the combination of this and JAWS grooves that produce such impressive results. Why not come down to the pro shop to give them a try yourself?

Winter is coming

Have you ever noticed how much harder you need to hit your putts in the winter compared to summer? As surfaces begin to slow due to longer grass and wetter greens, the need for a little extra effort on your putting stroke becomes clear.

Should you change your putter?

As putts need to be hit harder to get the ball going the same distance as they do in the summer months, using a heavier putter certainly won’t do you any harm.

The thought here is that a heavier putter will do more of the work for you, allowing for a smooth and more controlled putting stroke.

Whilst still being relatively lightweight compared to some putters, Scotty Cameron's Phantom X 12 putter is certainly an option we'd recommend you trying thanks to its optimised weight distribution.

Come and see us in the pro shop and we'd be happy to help you find the perfect putter this autumn.

Spotlight: Boa Fit System

It's not always easy to keep up with the latest trends in fashion or to understand the newest technology that comes to market.

One such thing that we would definitely recommend you trying is the Boa Fit System, which is a replacement for more traditional laces on golf shoes.

We have a brilliant video that explains it in detail if you click the link below but, in short, it allows you to find the perfect fit at just a few turns of the dial - it really is effortless. Come in the shop and try a pair of Boa shoes on to see for yourself.
