Hello Golfers,

Welcome to this week’s newsletter, a week that saw Wortley GC host the Yorkshire Boys U14 and U16 Championship - an event won previously by the likes of Danny Willett and Matt Fitzpatrick. Wortley GC were very honoured to host the event in our Anniversary year. Check our Facebook page for photos from the day.

Enjoy the read!

Ben Stolling from York won the U16 event with 72, 73 for 145.

There was some excellent golf from the youngsters on a tricky day and our golf course stood up well with 69 being the best score on the day.

The course received many great comments and all the staff and members that helped out through day were thanked by the Yorkshire Union in the speeches. An excellent day for us at the club on many levels.

No distractions

It's not always easy to get in the zone or feel completely comfortable over the ball so, when you do, the last thing you need is to look down and be distracted by your shoes. Style always comes down to individual taste, but here are two shoes at either end of the spectrum that catch our eye for different reasons.

FootJoy Fury

The eye-catching athletic style of the aptly named Fury offers a fast look when addressing the ball with a full grain leather and engineered mesh upper providing ultimate on-course performance.

FootJoy UltraFIT Boa

Classic style meets the perfect fit in these beautiful shoes from FJ. The no-nonsense design at address oozes confidence whilst the Boa Fit System ensures maximum comfort every time.

We have an extensive range of golf shoes available in-store with styles, colours and designs to match everyone's taste. So, be sure to pop in and try on a pair or two for size the next time you're in the market for new shoes.

Variety is the spice of life

Whatever happened to having a ‘textbook’ swing? If you were to watch golf on TV you’d see all sorts of different swings that have propelled these golfers to the top of the world, and the same can be said on the greens too.

TaylorMade Spider X putter

There's definitely no single approach when it comes to how you grip your putter. You have a more traditional no-fuss approach that is favoured by the likes of Tiger Woods; a left-below-right grip which is a recent craze made famous by Jordan Spieth's putting heroics; and then the opposite extreme in anchoring that has recently been banned by the R&A.

TaylorMade's putter range

That's gripping the club but what about the actual putter itself?

Take a look at TaylorMade's range for example. In this photo alone you can see the larger headed Spider X putter that is so popular on Tour thanks to its stability through the ball, as well as the more conventional headed TP Black Copper line.

With so many head styles available - not to mention lengths - using our expertise is the safest way to ensure your next purchase is the right one for your game.

Spotlight | Callaway Epic Flash hybrid

Epic by name...

Hybrids are one of the most important clubs you can have in your golf bag. Whether you use them as a long-iron replacement or to bridge the gap between your longest iron and shortest wood, they are incredibly useful and easy to hit.

This brand new release from Callaway boasts Jailbreak Technology for faster ball speeds, exceptional forgiveness on off-centre hits as well as adjustablility options so that we can really dial it in to be perfect for your game.
