So Close Yet So Far

It was a case of so close yet so far for Northern Ireland’s Graeme McDowell and Argentine team-mate Emiliano Grillo, as they finished agonizingly short in the QBE Shootout in Florida, missing out on top spot by a single stroke. The event, which follows a fourball format, was won by Americans Patton Kizzire and Brian Harman, who finished on -30 after a final round of 61. Tony Finau and the LPGA’s Lexi Thompson finished on -23.

Meanwhile, it was an emotional victory for 2010 Open winner Louis Oosthuizen, as he claimed his first South African Open over the weekend – the first time the South African has won the tournament. An eagle and five birdies in his final round meant that Oosthuizen ended the tournament on -18 under – a record-equaling six shots clear of second place. England’s Oliver Wilson finished on -10, in a tie for third place.

LTS Rainwear Trade-In Promotion

Receive £50 OFF a DryJoys Tour LTS Jacket & £25 OFF a pair of DryJoys Tour LTS Trousers when trading in your old rainwear!

LTS stands for 'Lightweight construction, Temperature regulation, and Stretch fabrication'; a combination that means it will keep you at a comfortable temperature and swinging powerfully.

This stylish jacket has taped seams and waterproof zips to keep out the rain, plus its technical stretch fabric will enhance your movement when there’s no option but to wear extra layers.

Available in a range of sizes and with a great warranty, we don't think you'll find a better all-round jacket for wear in both cold winter storms and warm summer showers.

Do you spot a trend?

We all want to enjoy playing golf, and a big part of this is lowering our handicap. Yes, there will be times when your game isn't up to scratch and you go up .1 a few times in a row, but there'll also be times when all of the puzzle pieces fit and your handicap tumbles.

What does your graph look like?

As the year comes to an end, it's important to take stock and examine where you can improve your game going into the new year. There might be several areas that you want/need to work on, or maybe just two or three finer details that will take your game to the next level.

Whatever those areas are, we're here to help. We can identify the key reasons you're not shooting the scores you want, as well as devise a personalised winter coaching plan to help iron out those faults and get you paying your best golf. So, if you want to see your handicap tumble in 2019, come down to the shop for a chat - you've got nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Here comes the sun

It's the time of year where some of you will start packing your clubs into your travel bag, ready for a few days abroad with your friends surrounded by nothing but beautiful sunshine and stunning courses. One accessory that is often overlooked is a pair of golf-specific sunglasses - essential for golf in the sun.

Luckily, Oakley has you covered. The Targetline model pictured above features a Dark Prizm lens, meaning that you'll be looking at those beautiful, scenic courses with maximum contrast and enhanced visibility - ideal for playing your best golf.

Alternatively, why not try the Flak 2.0? The Prizm lens gives you unparalleled detail when out on the course. It's also optimised with HighDefinitionOptics for the clearest possible vision over the field of view, with no magnification unlike regular lenses.
