Golf on Tour

What a shoot-out!

The Zurich Classic – a unique tournament that flip-flops between fourball & foursomes formats – served up one of the most enthralling shoot-outs of the year on Sunday evening as Australia and South Africa added another classic sporting rivalry to the list.

The team from Down Under, Cameron Smith & Mark Leishman, traded birdies and bogeys in frantic fashion with South Africa’s Louis Oosthuizen and Charl Schwartzel. After Smith found the water on the 17th, Leishman chipped-in to save the day. A rash drive into the drink from Oosthuizen in the playoff proved far more costly; failing to recover and handing the Aussies a hard-fought, thrilling victory in New Orleans.

Scrambling proved the decisive factor here. We all make mistakes, but how we deal with them is what matters most. You can learn how to scramble for a tidy scorecard through some one-to-one coaching by getting in touch below.

Good for your sole

Pulling out the spikeless golf shoes for the first time every year is a great feeling. It’s a sign that the sun is finally here! But, whilst spikeless shoes are perfect for summer on the golf course, they’re not restricted to just that.

Skechers Elite 4 golf shoes

Take Skechers’ Elite 4 shoes (shown above) as an example. GripFlex soles provide so much grip and traction that you can play on any turf without worrying about slipping. In fact, they’re so confident of the all-weather performance that these shoes are even made with H2GO Shield waterproof protection.

On top of that, the ultra-stylish design means they’re not restricted to the course either. You can walk straight off the 18th green and into the clubhouse knowing that you still look the part, and that’s something we’re huge fans of. We’re also pretty fond of the way the GOGA MAX & ULTRA FLIGHT insoles cushion your feet.

It’s only fitting

Bragging rights never come easy. Coming out on top against your golfing buddies feels great, but are you best-equipped to make it a regular occurrence this season? There’s certainly no shortage of help, given the amazing new clubs we have available to try at Donnington Grove Country Club.

The benefits of custom fitting for golf clubs

If you’re in the market for a treat in the form of some new woods or irons, we would be more than happy to help. We truly believe that our custom fitting service ensures you maximise your investment, in terms of both value for money and the performance of each club, as we find your perfect match.

The list above highlights some of the pros when it comes to custom fitting but, above all else, it’s a lot of fun to hit some new clubs and pick the brain of a pro! It can be a real headache trying to work out on your own which clubs to buy, so get in touch with a member of the team to give us a try instead!
