Hello golfers,

In this week’s email, we ask you to consider what's most important to you in a golf shoe, we take a look at how you voted in January's poll, and we look ahead to what's coming in February.

Enjoy the read.

Pro's news

It's a new era

Our January poll captured the imagination of many of you as we asked you to consider whether Tiger Woods would make a triumphant return to the fairways in 2018. Here are the final results:

58% think Tiger will fail to win a tournament this year
33% believe the American will win a PGA Tour event
9% believe he’ll get one closer to Jack Nicklaus’ major victories record

As we head into February, keep an eye out for our new poll later this week. With lots of the major brands releasing new products over the coming weeks, we want to know which one you’d like to try the most. Of course, we will be receiving lots of exciting bits next month so be sure to pop your head into the shop next time you're at the club.

What's most important to you?

It’s easy to neglect the importance of wearing shoes packed full of modern technology when looking for something to replace your old pair, but it’s these updates that make a huge difference on the course. The question to consider is: what do you want from your shoe?

Superior Comfort

The popular FootJoy Pro/SL shoe provides superior feel thanks to clever cushioning and a thicker insole for enhanced comfort. You'll also get lots for your money thanks to its stylish design that can be worn on and off the course.

Waterproof Protection

As well as its walking comfort, this shoe has a ChromoSkin leather upper that will give you lasting waterproof protection you can trust throughout the British seasons.

It's a game of fine margins

A yard further and your ball’s resting on the green rather than in the greenside bunker. Five millimetres closer to the centre of the face and it might fly the water rather than make a splash landing. A little less pace on your putt and the ball takes the break and falls into the centre of the cup.

Golf is a game of fine margins, which means every decision you make is an important one. You wouldn’t go from one round to the next playing with different clubs - sometimes new, sometimes old, sometimes slightly damaged – so why do that with your golf ball? Considering it’s the only constant you have on every shot, it can really pay off to use the same model if you want to improve your consistency.

Callaway Chrome Soft and Chrome Soft golf balls

One to consider
Before you settle on your ball of choice, here is a great model worth trying for a round or two.

The new and improved Callaway Chrome Soft golf ball has been a big talking point since its media launch last week. Its innovative Graphene-infused core is the first of its kind and helps to deliver additional ball speed and even more control around the greens.
