Assistant's News
This week our Assistant Isaac shot a 75 (+3) and finished fifth in the Assistant's North Region Order of Merit event at Rockliffe Hall Golf Club.
Such a perfect day...
The inevitable has finally happened! Nearly man, Jason Day, has finally become a Major champion with his three-shot victory at Whistling Straits - and in what fine style he did it, too. Day finished with a 67 to record a 20-under-par total at the USPGA, in the process breaking the record for the lowest total score at one of golf's big four.
One of Day's biggest attributes week-in, week-out is his driving ability. Not only is he deceivingly long off the tee, but he finds the fairway with comparative ease. Take last week for example; Day drove the ball an average of 307 yards and found the fairway 73% of the time. Just think how much easier this game would be if we could have that sort of distance-accuracy ratio.
We can help you achieve gains in the driving department, whether this be through coaching or fitting. Think about the difference a simple change could make to your game: averaging an extra 15 yards off the tee means that you could have 15 yards less left in to each green; the equivalent to one or two clubs. If you want to make this game easier for yourself then come and see us in store, or get in touch here.
