Hello everyone,

Welcome to the latest edition to Bristol & Clifton's weekly newsletter. We hope that you're having a good week on and off the golf course. Right let's get to it - enjoy the read.

Club news

Bristol & Clifton members Mitch Waite and Noah Hessey alongside Joseph Long of Lansdown Golf Club have taken a six week trip down under to compete in four world ranking amateur golf tournaments.

Playing off a plus three handicap, Mitch will be competing against a world class amateur field that includes a handpicked group of four England Squad members. Mitch, Noah and Jo are full time amateur golfers who in the future are looking to compete on the worldwide professional tours. Tournaments of this calibre are fantastic experiences as well as beating the freezing practice conditions back here in the U.K. This Tuesday just gone, the first event of the boys Aussie tour kicked off at the renowned Royal Melbourne Golf Club. Chris Wood has played there a few times and regards it as one of the most difficult courses in the world. The Australian Masters of the Amateurs live scores are available to view here.

Academy news

The Junior Coaching Schedule 2018 for non-members and members has just been launched and Nick is looking forward to seeing as many youngsters at the sessions as possible. The sessions need to be booked in advance via the Pro Shop and all abilities are very welcome at minimal cost.

For the really diddy golfer, I’m starting Tri Golf sessions after the Easter Holidays and dates are due to be launched very soon. As for the new born baby lessons, uptake has been strong and little Monaghan is under no pressure to don the green jacket in twenty or so years’ time after a dozen five minute lessons. Absolutely no pressure at all!

For the second time, Matt Hawker and I started the quest for a single digit handicap last week. After a positive start to the pre-season in 2017, a new baby on my side and then commitments throughout the summer, for both of us it was impossible to get to get him and maintain the momentum of improvement. Hopefully this year will see the positive changes in Matt’s game on paper. Members have been noticing the improvement over the past year and I’m really looking forward to helping Matt further.

I have just confirmed a Fitting Day date with both Callaway and PING and they are to be announced very soon. Callaway will be releasing their new products very shortly which means the Epic driver and fairway woods have now been reduced to make way for what Callaway have stated is the longest driver ever to be made!

The hype of the new TaylorMade Twist Face drivers should be subdued very soon with the launch of the new range from Callaway. After having a financial nightmare and poor customer relations, Green Jacket winner Sergio Garcia has been dropped by TaylorMade and will be seen playing the new Callaway range in Dubai over the next couple of weeks.

Don't forget that we're holding the biggest ever pro shop January sale. If you haven't been in the pro shop over the last week, then make sure you come down as we have some fantastic products on offer. See below for some of our January sale offers.

Are you layering efficiently?

Last week we talked about how golf-specific clothing can aid you in beating any weather that’s thrown your way while playing. Another benefit is that you only need a few thin layers to remain nice and warm – long gone are the days of piling on thick turtlenecks and big knitted jumpers.

ColdGear Reactor Base-Layer
ColdGear Reactor Base-Layer

This Under Armour top is the perfect base-layer thanks to its comfortable brushed material, its dynamic stretch fabric and its insulation material that delivers both warmth and breathability so you don’t sweat and overheat.

Coolswitch Upright Polo

This sporty polo boasts fabric innovations including a CoolSwitch coating that wicks moisture away from your skin so you don’t overheat and a stretch material that enhances mobility so you can swing comfortably.

Top off your outfit with something like this half-zip pullover. Its lightweight quilted fabric delivers warmth and Storm technology on its surface repels water, while stretchy side panels ensure you can always swing powerfully.

We custom fit for every golfer

The coming weeks will see many golf brands release their 2018 equipment line-ups – something that always gets us very excited here in the shop. Regardless of the brand and product, there’ll be one common theme among them…

Custom Fitting

Custom fitting is essential
Here in the pro shop, we have both the expertise and tools to be able to offer you a full custom fit.

We often come across a common misconception that custom fitting is only for low handicap players, but this couldn’t be further from the truth.

The more you struggle with distance and accuracy, the more there is to gain from playing clubs that are fitted to your swing; from longer carries and tighter dispersions to more consistent strikes. We also find that people really enjoy trying new equipment and learning about their swings, which often results in them being fitted for something completely different to what they’d expected at the beginning.

The new standard for wedge performance

Those of you on social media may have seen that Callaway has just announced their new wedge for 2018: Mack Daddy 4.

In brief, the MD4 comes with micro-ridges and micro-grooves on the club face, which provide surface roughness to increase spin significantly on a variety of shots. In addition, Callaway say this wedge produces the most satisfying feel they've ever accomplished in a wedge. Surely it's worth a try?
