In support of the British Legion poppy appeal during the month of November we will fly a special flag to commemorate the year 1916 on the 16th hole. 

The Captain will donate his 'fines' pot during November to the 'British Legion' and 'Battle back golf'. 

An equal donation will be made as our way of thanking our armed forces for their sacrifices.


 

Jo Harvie and Sally Dickinson winners of the Ladies Foursomes Knockout. 

The competition ran through the summer with the final played before the middle of October.

Congratulations to all of the ladies who participated. 




Does this sound like you?

How often do you drive to the course thinking about how your last game of golf went? You gather up all the negatives from your previous round - the lost balls, the three putts, the duffed bunker shot - which immediately puts you on the back foot before you've even teed off.

No matter how bad you've played in recent weeks, each round is different and there's no reason as to why your next won't see your handicap drop. Take Thorbjørn Olesen for example…

Having made just three of his last 12 cuts, the 26-year-old Dane produced some sublime golf en-route to winning the Turkish Airlines Open over the weekend. It's not the first time that Olesen has triumphed off the back of some horrid form; he also won the Alfred Dunhill Links last year following a run of 13 missed cuts in 18 events.

It just goes to show that the saying is true: form is temporary, class is permanent. If there's one lesson to be learnt from this then it's to start each round with renewed optimism and confidence that you're going to play well.

And if your golf is really that bad at the moment, then why haven't you booked yourself in for a lesson yet? Get in touch here if you want to play better golf.
