Academy
The Academy is going full tilt and as some of you are aware, it is a great way to start your golfing career.
Now how about giving that someone special a perfect gift? Why not buy them a Golf Lesson Gift Voucher.
It can be used as either the academy assessment lesson or just a taster lesson - either way it's a great surprise present.
  
Golf Tips
Proper warm up is essential for peak performance in any sport. If you attend any professional sporting event you always see athletes going through a pre-game warm up, and pro golfers are no different. By the time tour professionals step to the first tee, they are fully prepared to make their best swings from the opening tee shot.
Most amateurs, however, get "warmed up" by dashing from their cars to the pro shop to check in, then running to the first tee, all within five minutes or so. Usually this is followed by unsteady play for the first five holes and ends up with another disappointing round. In my opinion, with this style of warm up, golfers are making bogies before they ever step on the course.
Starting next month I will be giving you ideas on how to warm up before playing golf. |

Rory To Play More On US Tour
Rory McIlroy intends to spend more time on the U.S tour next year, juggling his commitments with the European Tour as he seeks to make an impact on both sides of the 'Pond'.
''I will add on a couple more events to my schedule in America next year,'' McIlroy said Tuesday. ''It won't be a drastic change but I love playing on the golf courses in the U.S.''
''But this doesn't mean I'm going to neglect Europe. I will continue to play on the European Tour like I did this year, spending time between both tours.''
He pointed to world No.1 Luke Donald as an example of someone who has successfully played both sides of the Atlantic.
''Luke (Donald) has proved this year that that it can be done. He has played on both tours and he heads the money list on both as well,'' McIlroy said.
Northern Ireland's McIlroy carries a career-best world ranking of No. 2 into the Hong Kong Open which gets underway on Thursday at the Hong Kong Golf Club.
''I certainly hope this will be my year. I have come close twice in Hong Kong, finishing second in 2008 and 2009. Maybe this time I can do it,'' McIlroy said.
He will face a formidable field including defending champion Ian Poulter and England World Cup-teammate Justin Rose, and former major champions Padraig Harrington and YE Yang.
''I have been coming to Hong Kong since I was 15 and I just love this place. It is one of my favourite cities and I hope I can win this tournament for the first time. This has been a great year for me and I hope to finish it off in style,'' McIlroy added.
