Hello Golfers,

We hope you're well.

With the clocks set to spring forward this week, it won't be long before we're out on the course playing some holes in the evening. Be sure to check out our short-read article on 1-irons and hybrids, not to mention a must-watch video of two of the world's best going head-to-head.

Enjoy the read.

Golf on Tour

Making the highlight reel

40-year-old Australian Matt Jones claimed victory at The Honda Classic on the beautiful-but-challenging PGA National golf course, with Denmark’s Sebastian Cappelen going shirtless for a watery chip before Wesley Bryan removed shoes and trousers for a couple of shots. That’s one way to make the highlight reel!

On the European Tour, Justin Harding proved the importance of avoiding errors as he went bogey-free in the final round to win the Magical Kenya Open. Sure, he did have a few birdies and an eagle on the day, but it was the bogey avoidance that saw him reign supreme.

We might not have the same wildlife as Nairobi’s Karen Country Club, but we can help you dodge those mistakes this season with a series of one-to-one lessons with a member of the team.

On the move

You probably think of your trolley as just a handy way to take the weight of a full golf bag off your shoulders as you walk the course (which it is), but nowadays your trolley can also take a huge weight off your mind as you play.

New Motocaddy GPS trolleys

Last year marked a significant upgrade in the world of GPS electric trolleys, and this year is set to follow suit.

To begin with, Motocaddy has added GPS technology to its highly popular M3 model for the first time! As the screen below shows, you will be able to view key yardages to the green at the quickest of glances.

If you want more then the M5 GPS gives you all of this but on a larger, higher-resolution touchscreen. In addition, you'll be presented with a dynamic green view that allows you to drag & drop the pin to match what you're faced with on the course.

Golf is an up-and-down sport in more ways than one, but with Motocaddy’s Downhill Control (DHC) models your trolley will be cruising at a constant speed no matter the terrain!

1-iron or hybrid?

No matter how good you are, it’s easy to feel intimidated when placing an old-school 1-iron or 2-iron behind the ball. With the compact, ultra-thin head, you’d be forgiven for having a crisis of confidence at address… But that can be an issue. With a hybrid, however, the larger head and the shape of the sole give you a real safety net as you strike the ball.

Which would you prefer?

Perhaps the biggest game-changer of the 21st Century, the popularity of hybrids has soared in recent years. Why hit a 1 or 2-iron when the benefits of a hybrid – higher, more forgiving launch - are staring you in the face? The more shots you hit, the more you’ll notice the consistency and forgiveness you’re gaining, with the versatility to strike the ball from anywhere and any lie adding another benefit over traditional long-irons.

PING G425 hybrids

At the pinnacle of this modern engineering is PING’s G425 hybrids. Facewrap technology really optimises that desired launch whilst also delivering as much distance as possible. In addition, Spinsistency engineering gives the clubface a complex curvature that maintains consistent spin & distance for shots hit low in the face, helping you strike the ball from tight lies, deep rough and even out of bunkers.
