Is your putting holding you back?
With putting being 40% of the game, having a putter that is fitted correctly for you is very important. We see far too many amateurs using the wrong putter for their height and stroke causing their putting to be very inconsistent. If you are interested in having a putter fitted for you correctly then get in touch. In the Pro Shop here at Hallowes we have a fantastic selection of putters to choose from including brands such as Odyssey, PING and Scotty Cameron. |
We are currently running a fantastic offer where you are able to receive a FREE fitting and FREE lesson when you purchase a putter (this offer is only running for Odyssey). This offer expires Sunday, 29 July. Call us on 01246 411196 or click here to book your fitting today.

Are you the type of golfer who considers the danger ahead of you and plans accordingly, or do you pull a driver from the bag on every par-4 and par-5 without a blink? If you’re the latter then you need to read on. |
Consider the danger You hear pros talk a lot about the ‘smart shot’ in their post-round interviews. If you’re on the tee and there’s a bunker, ditch or other hazard around the distance that your driver or fairway wood normally flies, then make sure you change club to one that takes the trouble out of play, as displayed in this graphic. While you’ll have a slightly longer shot to the green, you’ll greatly reduce the chance of a big number. | |
|
Know your numbers Of course, key to all of this is knowing how far each of your woods carries. If you’re looking to add more distance and control to your game, come and test the Lynx Parallax driver, Parallax fairway and Parallax hybrid. If you have a fitting we can hit all three in a range of different specifications until we find your ideal set-up for the course. |
