Cuddington Professional Shop

Hello Golfers,

Somewhat unbelievably, we are already into May! Following this week’s horrendous weather, the Bank Holiday weekend promises much warmer temperatures which I am sure will be welcomed by all.

Due to the recent bad weather we have been given the opportunity by the golf union to extend the use of winter rules which we have chosen to accept. When they eventually end we will clearly advertise the fact.

The Club Championship sign-up sheet is on the main noticeboard together with the entry sheet for this year's Scratch Knockout competition, so if you would like to play, please enter your name on the correct sheet.

As we ease into the summer, please remember our Wednesday Evening Stableford Completions which are hugely popular will be commencing again on Wednesday, 16 May. Please look out for the separate email which will explain all the details for these which will be sent shortly.

Best regards,
Paul Schunter,
Director of Golf & Operations.

It's a shoo-in

Many of you ask for our advice when buying something new in-store, so we thought we’d showcase our top shoes for 2018 in this week’s newsletter. Drumroll, please…

FootJoy DryJoys Tour

Follow in the footsteps of tour stars like Adam Scott and Henrik Stenson and try this FootJoy DryJoys Tour. We’re fans of its traditional look and waterproof leather uppers, plus we love the stable hitting platform its cleated outsole provides.

FootJoy ContourFIT

If you prioritise comfort, we think this FootJoy ContourFIT shoe should be at the top of list to try. Its features include an achilles pad to keep your foot secure, an extra thick insole for extreme underfoot comfort and a spacious rounded toe profile.

FootJoy Pro/SL

If you’d like to add off-course versatility to your shoe options so you can go straight from work to the course, this FootJoy Pro/SL is one popular option thanks to its lightweight comfort, smart leather uppers and durable spikeless outsole.

It's 14 clubs for a reason

This week marks the start of a series of articles where we focus on making sure that you are getting the very most out of the clubs in your bag. A key way to do this is to look at your set as one, rather than breaking it down into woods, irons and wedges.

What does your set look like?
As you know, we’re big advocates of custom fitting for golfers of all standards. Many of you have taken advantage of this and are now hitting the ball further and straighter than you ever have before.

While this is fantastic, if you’re hitting your woods further you may have been left with a fiddly gap to your longest iron; likewise, if your new irons are a club longer then you will inevitably have a gap after your PW.

Look at your clubs as a whole
It’s only by looking at your set as a whole that you’ll be able to spot and react to any gaps, meaning you’ll have a club for every shot you could face on the course.

If you’re a fan of Mizuno like us, you’ll know they offer a great range of clubs to ensure you’re never stuck for options. The GT180 and ST180 drivers each provide powerful and penetrating flights, whilst the CLK hybrid and MP-18 MMC Fli-Hi utility iron provide us with two options to perfectly gap your long game.

Where are your gaps?
Mizuno also offers six other iron models for you to try and the S18 wedge comes in 13 lofts between 45-62 degrees so we can create the best set-up possible during a fitting or gapping session.

The myth that custom fitting is only for better golfers couldn't be further from the truth. Whilst the very best are looking for that extra 1%, a custom fitting for the average club golfer regularly produces results that even surprise us! Make 2018 your best golfing year yet by clicking on the button below.

We look forward to seeing you at the club this week.
