Golf survey feedback Thank you for the feedback June 17, 2021 9:48 am

Many thanks to all of our customers who were kind enough to complete our recent survey. We have just made the prize draw and have contacted the winner to issue them their £100 top up to their range account. Our move to a bay booking system was the biggest change we have ever made and we were aware that it... View Article

Alignment May 30, 2021 12:36 pm

Alignment. This is the one thing on the golf range that I never discuss with customers. That’s not to say it isn’t important. Far from it. But the nature of the golf range negates the need to check this. When you are in the bay, you have the mat, the netting and the structure of the range building. All of... View Article

balanced golf swing Balance May 4, 2021 8:29 am

A balanced golf swing requires focus both at address position and throughout the swing to the end. So let’s look at each section in turn. Firstly, at address. You should endeavour to feel the weight balanced equally between both feet. The exception to this is the tee shot where a slight bias to your back foot is preferred. The weight... View Article

Spine Straight Posture April 1, 2021 7:19 am

I am sorry to start this tip with a sexist statement, but by and large ladies are so much better at the golf posture than us men. They tend to stand straighter with their spine, whereas many of the men, particularly the taller breed, look a touch like Quasimodo when they are about to hit a golf ball. This error... View Article

golf grip Back to basics: grip pressure January 5, 2021 3:48 pm

Prior to each shot, the very first thing we do is take hold of the golf club. Unfortunately, in most cases, we have already made a big error, by holding the golf club as if it were my throat!!! If you watch other sports, you can see how hard the protagonists work to reduce the tension in their action. Tennis... View Article

2021 Championship Predictions January 2, 2021 11:13 am

After a year like no other, Jon Woodroffe ponders on his predictions for the big tournaments in 2021. If last year was a golf hole, then we started with a reasonable drive, followed by a shank out of bounds. We continued with a mildly mis-hit fairway wood that crawled towards the green. Then we duffed the chip and four-putted. Not... View Article

Review of the golfing year 2020 December 22, 2020 2:19 pm

Our resident Master Professional Jon Woodroffe takes a look back at a different kind of year. The expression ‘2020 vision’ means perfect. I think we can all agree this year has proved to be as far from that as you can imagine! We all know the bad bits, so I wanted to make my review of the year more upbeat... View Article
