Greetings from The Golf Team | Blackwood Golf Centre - PGA Golf Professional |
Johnny Norton
Shop assistant Johnny Norton was the leading qualifier at the Coca Cola youth championships at Donaghadee Golf Club. We wish Johnny Norton the best of luck for the next rounds. Be sure to congratulate him and offer a few words of encouragement if you see him at the club this week.
Charlie Bell
The countdown to Charlie's wedding continues... He must now be getting very nervous. On behalf of everyone at the club, we wish him well as he approaches the big day.
We can all learn a thing or two from the weekend's action in America. For those of you who missed it, US Ryder Cup captain Davis Love III claimed PGA Tour title number 21 at the age of 51, and Tiger Woods' season ended prematurely with his biggest 'missed cut' of the season: no place in the top 125 for the FedExCup Playoffs.
Love proved that you are never too old to win, which should provide inspiration for all of us - especially the over 50s! Who's to say that he won't make the USA team if he carries on this form over the next 12 months?
Meanwhile, Woods put in an admirable effort to qualify for the Playoffs only to undo all his hard work on the par-4 11th where he racked up a treble bogey, which included a dreaded shank. It was a credit to him that he rebounded with four birdies in the last six holes to remind everyone that he might not quite be a spent force just yet.
The meltdown on 11 is something I'm sure we can all relate to. It can be so easy to let something like this affect your mind-set for the rest of the round, but this is where the best in the world show such strong character. Next time you blob a hole or run up a high number, don't let it ruin the rest of your round. Treat the hole as a piece of paper: screw it up, throw it in the bin and move on to the next hole.
If your mental game is letting you down, come and speak to us in store or get in touch here. |
Enjoy the rest of the newsletter and have a great weekend. |
Resolving your long game yardage issues |
How to improve your holing out |
| One of the quickest ways to save strokes is to equip yourself with a golf GPS. Better course management will help you keep double bogeys off the card - so check out our GolfBuddy range in store, which features handheld, laser and wearable devices, all of which will help you to lower your scores. |
| For some of us, all we want to make the game easier is more distance, especially from iron to iron. In this video we discuss Wilson's D200 irons, clubs that certainly tick the distance box. If you are thinking about new irons and distance is a big factor for you, ask in store about the D200's... |
