Greetings golfers,

Welcome to the latest edition of the weekly Reddish Vale Pro Shop newsletter. As you can see, everything is a little different this week as we have a new template. We hope you enjoy the new template and newsletter.

New PING G400 revealed

‘Innovative face-flexing technology launches the ball faster and higher to give you tour-level distance with stopping power and forgiveness. The multi-material G400 iron flexes like a catapult as COR-Eye Technology and a top rail undercut launch the ball higher and farther.’

The demo irons are in now so please put them to the tes. They are slimmer than previous G models as you can see in the pictures, a change of colour from the traditional PING blue has occurred, and what else is different is that they all have Golf Pride grips too.

You can take them out or try them on the GC2 and compare them to your current clubs. The new range of drivers and fairways are on order and will be here as soon as PING have the stock – numerous demos to go at. Book your fitting by clicking the button below.

Junior Update

We had 14 juniors take part in our top 5 competition. The juniors not only get a chance to play on the golf course, but they learn all aspects of the game including repairing divots and pitch marks and they learn how to behave and the etiquette of the game. This is just as important as the coaching.

Ricky Blood was the winner of the top 5 beginner class, Thomas Greaney won the Intimidate class and the putting competition was won by Harry Darby. Well done to all the juniors.

There will be coaching on Sunday (Intermediate class 1pm-2pm) (Beginner Class 2pm-3pm)
£4 per child. Contact the Pro Shop to book onto our programme.

Presentation – Saturday 15th July at 6pm

If you have won a prize on a Saturday, please turn up wearing jacket and tie to receive your voucher from The Captain. This presentation dates all the way back to the individual stableford which was played on Saturday 3rd June. There are quite a few prizes to present so take a look at the prize winners by clicking here.

Presentations have been less frequent this year- every six weeks or so – so they have reduced in number but have been bigger occasions with more people and a magnified atmosphere when they do come around. The only downside it would seem is that you have to wait longer before spending your winnings in the Pro Shop!

Saturday’s 2 From 3 Stableford

The winning team of Josh Tunnicliffe, Keith Pownall & Andy Humphrey scored 81 pts to win by one point over the second place team Mike Oates, Kevin Gale & Phil Booth with 80 pts. Third place went to Vaughan Stott, John Devenney & Greg Mitchell after they beat Ray O’Sullivan, John Booth & Robert Little on countback, both with 76 pts

Sunday’s Pro’s Stableford

Steve Marsh took the winner's spot thanks to a great score of 38 pts, John Devenney was one off the pace, in second, with 37 pts, and Geoff Brookes beat Graham Warburton on countback to take third, both with 35 pts.

Two’s = £6.20 each. Click here to see the full results.

Wednesday Section Stableford

Div 1 Winner – Jason Leech – 36 pts (CPO)
Div 2 Winner – Stewart Flint – 35 pts
Div 3 Winner – Paddy Weadick – 39 pts

With Derek Simpkins meticulousness on handicaps, and ensuring even NR’s are entered into the computer to ensure the standard scratch is correct, Greg Mitchell has requested that all players enter their scores onto the computer after you have completed your rounds on Wednesday. Doesn’t matter how good or bad it was! Last week a few scores had not been entered so Greg went through the cards to see whose was missing? Derek Simpkins!

Two’s = £6 each.
