Congratulations to Simon Foxhall and Michele Harper
Last Saturday saw the wedding reception and evening do at the golf club to celebrate the marriage of Simon and Michele, they had an amazing day with everyone meeting at the club before heading off in the well decorated wedding bus for the ceremony.
After the return trip photos were taken out on the golf course and back in for our Head Chef, Dougie to work his magic with a three course meal. The merriment went on well into the early hours and I'm sure that everyone within the golf club wish both Simon and Michele all the best for their future together.
PGA European Tour hits the UK
This week sees the European Tour hit UK shores, and what a tournament it is with the BMW Championships flagship event at Wentworth.
Sadly last week Rory had to pull out of the tournament due to medical issues, which will always hit numbers going through the gate, it's a bit like having Tiger playing or not these days.
The top stars of world golf do take an event to the next level.
But saying that anyone can win these days if it's their week, the defending champion is Mizuno Staff Player, Chris Wood and if you would like to try out the current new Mizuno models we have my Area Sales Manager and Custom Fitting guru, Simon Smart here next Wednesday afternoon.
So if you would like a FREE OF CHARGE FITTING then pop into the Pro Shop to book your slot.
On a personal note, at the BMW we have leading Devon PGA Pro, Paul Hendriksen playing who qualified through the PGA Play-offs last year, as West Region Captain I have sent Paul a good luck message and please look out for him over the coming few days.
Complete Equipment Solution
We still have the spaces available for ' the complete equipment solution offer ' with Mizuno, which entitles you to a FREE custom fitting session and FREE golf lesson.
If you would like to take up this current offer then please pop on into the shop and speak to a member of staff.

Devon PGA Ladies Pro Am
In last week's newsletter, I said that I was away with three of our lady members to Exeter Golf & Country Club for the Devon PGA Ladies Pro Am, the team of Kathy, Donna and Jenny had a fantastic day finishing just a couple of points outside the prizes.
Kathy on the other hand did come away with some bonus prizes, she managed to finish closest to the pin after 3 shots on the par 5 3rd hole and then popped in a 30 footer for a 2 on the 4th which won the girls 3 dozen Callaway Supersoft golf balls.
The shot of the day though went to Jenny with her ' Barnes Wallis ' across the pond in front of the 18th green, to finish up on the front edge, where she 2 putted for a nett par. My check list last week forgot one very important thing, waterproofs, sadly I went and left them in the shop and when the heavens opened for the last 6 holes, I can safely say I got soaked!
Golf Club Results
Last Saturday we had a very quiet day on the course, so the club ran a 3 Person Texas Scramble with each player having to get in 6 drives each, the winning team was Connor Davidson, Ben Browning and Charlie Scorse with a nett 55.6, they had an amazing round finishing over 4 shots clear from Crispin Merritt, Andy McKnight and Darren Horton who recorded a score of 59.9.
The Ladies Section played the PING 4 Ball Better Ball last Tuesday and this was won by Carol Mitcham and Barbara Brown with 43 points from Margaret Wallis and Gill Norris with 40.
