Hello Golfers,

Welcome to another exciting edition of the weekly newsletter bringing you all of the latest goings-on from around the club.

Enjoy this week's read.

The Masters

It's Masters week

Well the first major of the season is upon us with the top Pro’s taking that wonderful drive down Magnolia Lane, will Sergio be able to defend his title, will Rory complete the Golfing Grand Slam or will we have a first time winner like Tommy Fleetwood.

I do believe that Ian Poulter does deserve a mention too, with having been told that after his win in the last 16 of the WGC Matchplay that he had qualified, only to be told just before he teed off in his ¼ Final Match that sorry you haven’t got in and then to go to the Houston Open knowing that he had to win to get in was amazing.

But good luck to all of them and may the best golfer win, as long as it’s exciting going into the back 9 on Sunday, thanks to everyone who supported the Masters Draw in the Pro Shop as well. The draw sheets are available in the shop and around the clubhouse.

Course news

Course update

Easter Weekend was a bit of a washout with the weather still given us all a hard time, although for a few days we did manage to get the tees back off the mats and onto the grass, but sadly we have had to revert back due to lack of growth and coverage on them. But on a good note, Richard and the staff have been out cutting the fairways and the greens today for the first time in around three weeks.

Shop news

Shop offers

With the weather still affecting the course, it’s still been very quiet, although I’m pleased to say that the shop is pretty much fully stocked for the forth coming season. All we need is the weather to go with it !

We still have a couple of special offers on at this moment in time with Titleist offering the 4 for 3 deal on Pro V1’s or the Pro V1x and Motocaddy on upgrading your current battery to a Lithium Model with a Trade In Offer of £ 25.00 off. Pop in to find out more.

Competition news

Golf Club Results

On Easter Saturday the club held the Cornwall Golf Union Goblets Qualifier, this is where the top few pairs go through to the County Final which will be held at West Cornwall in May.

1st Place - Nick Brown & Phil Jones with 35 points

2nd Place - Nigel Molin & Andy Parry with 32 points

3rd Place - Martin Roberts & Ben Browning with 30 points

4th Place - Paul Jose & Roger Scorse with 30 points

Then on Easter Monday we were supposed to hold the Percy Gilbert Trophy, but sadly the weather once again struck with the course getting a further inch of rain overnight. Although it was open, with the 11 temporary greens in play it was felt that it was not the right decision to run a board event with the course set up that way.

So instead, we ran the 11 Hole Classic in a Stableford format for a Gents and Juniors Section, although it was a quiet day we still had 15 men and 5 juniors play, the results are as follows:

Gents Section

1st - Mike Watmore with 27 points & winning a £ 15.00 Pro Shop Voucher

2nd - Paul Caunter with 24 points

3rd – Mike Hodges with 24 points

Junior Section

1st – Harry Drewett with 29 points

2nd - Issac D’Bue with 24 points

Put your name up in lights

It only comes around once a year and it’s that time again - Masters week! The first Major of the year takes place at Augusta National this week, which we always take as a sign that the season is getting underway. With this in mind, we have one question for you: are you ready to play your best golf this year?

Maximise your potential
We've all sat looking at the honours boards in a clubhouse before, admiring the one name that appears to be on most and thinking 'wow, they must be pretty good!'

Well, how good would it feel if that name up in lights was yours? If you come and speak to us we can talk about your strengths, weaknesses and goals for this season and look at the best way to help you achieve them, whether that’s a one-off fault-fixer lesson, regular sessions to aid your consistency or perhaps a look at your equipment.

Pushing the boundaries

If you don’t want to worry about charging your battery after every round but still want a trolley to help you around the course, this brand new push model from Motocaddy - a world's first - could be the answer.

This new Motocaddy CUBE CONNECT push trolley is perfect for any space-conscious golfers. For starters, you get a soft-touch handle, simple two-step folding system and generous storage space, including an under-handle net and accessory compartment.

Its key feature, however, is its on-screen GPS that provides front, middle and back distances to the green. This screen also displays the par of the hole, a clock, a round timer and receives call, text and social media alerts - these are completely optional so you can turn off notifications if you wish.
