Golf on Tour

Hot streaks continue

Tyrrell Hatton followed up his impressive BMW PGA Championship win with a T3 on the PGA Tour over the weekend - not bad after a late dash across the pond following his Wentworth triumph! In Europe, Aaron Rai has finished first, second and third over his last four events.

Both men appear to have unlocked something in their game over recent weeks. Confidence? Rhythm? Swing changes? Sometimes, small changes can go a long way.

Our expertise means we can help you make that change to improve your game, no matter how big or small. So, click the button below to speak to us about a part of your game that you'd like to get better at.

Treat your feet

Some cynics (or golfers having a bad round) often say ‘Golf is a good walk spoiled’. In our opinion, golf only makes that walk better! Either way, if the walk must be spoiled then it should be by errant tee shots and three-putts, not by uncomfortable shoes.

Well, apparently adidas feel the same way. Their BOOST midsole has become world-renowned for the way it cushions your feet and responds to every step. When you’re walking 18 holes, this cushioning feels like a real blessing!

You'll find BOOST in most of the brand's hero shoes, including the ever-popular Tour360 XT model. These are also made with premium, waterproof leather and an 8-spike TPU Puremotion sole that can grip any turf - perfect for winter golf!

Bounce made simple

You’ll often hear golf commentators say “the bounce is your friend” but what is ‘bounce’ on a wedge? Well, it refers to the angle of the leading edge and plays an important role in how your wedge interacts with the turf through impact. 

High vs. low bounce wedges

As the image shows above, the higher the wedge bounce the more the leading edge is off the ground and pointing upwards. 

But how does this help you? Well, having the correct bounce for the course conditions and your swing type will offer additional forgiveness and promote a better strike, which is something that we can talk you through more in-store.

Cleveland RTX ZipCore wedges

One thing we will say is that getting the correct bounce - as well as grind and loft - on any new wedges is really important.

This is where we can help. We can talk you through the options available within Cleveland's new RTX ZipCore range and ensure you walk away with a wedge system that is designed to help you get up-and-down more often.
