Hello golfers,
Tiger Woods makes his return to the PGATour today at Torey Pines. He has signed up with TaylorMade using the driver and fairway woods. He is currently testing the new wedges which will be in his bag very soon. The irons should be in the bag in the near future. Don't forget, we're stocking and custom fitting TaylorMade products here at Blackwood.

This is exciting...
There's been quite a buzz in the pro shop recently because, believe it or not, January is one of our favourite times of the year.
It's at this time of year when we get to see some exciting new product which, in the main, arrives in store in February and March. Who doesn't get a buzz when they see shiny new irons or drivers full of technology? It's not just hardware though, as we also get to see the line-up of footwear and apparel for the year ahead, as well as a sneak preview of any new balls to hit the market.
More on all this in the coming weeks, as Foremost TV travels to the PGA Show to get the lowdown on all the new product releases. But in the meantime, don't wait until the clocks change, come and see us and let's set some targets for 2017 and help you to enjoy your best ever season.
January Sale
Our January Sale is coming to an end with huge discounts across the store on clothing, hardware, balls and much, much more. So if you would like to grab yourself a bargain this winter, visit us in the pro shop this weekend.
