Rainbow Living is a volunteer run charity providing support and accommodation for young adults with learning disabilities in Devon.

Golf on Tour

Popov and DJ in leagues of their own

There are sporting shocks, and then there’s the World No. 304 winning a Major! Germany’s Sophia Popov finished on -7 at Royal Troon to claim victory at the AIG Women’s Open. Despite having never won on the LPGA or Ladies European Tour before, the 27-year-old fought off challenges from stars like World No. 8 Minjee Lee and seven-time Major Champion Inbee Park.

Meanwhile, on the PGA Tour, Dustin Johnson won The Northern Trust, the first FedEx Cup playoff event, by shooting a staggering -30. That ended up being an 11-stroke victory, which raises the age-old question of what’s more entertaining:

An all-out birdie fest or tough, battling golf?

Shooting these sort of scores requires immense confidence in your game. So, if there's a part of yours that you're particularly struggling with, send us a message below and we'll be happy to help.

The benefits of long-iron replacements

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be looking at how your clubs link together, from hybrids to irons and then into wedges. This week, we’ll be looking at how having long-iron replacements can hugely benefit your game.

TaylorMade SIM UDI and DHY clubs

Long irons are hard to hit, especially in comparison to hybrids. Lots of golfers struggle for consistency, as well as finding that their longer irons actually go similar distances.

If this is the case, why would you carry them in your bag? It makes more sense to replace them with a more forgiving, easy-to-hit option. Enter TaylorMade's brand new SIM UDI and DHY clubs.

These will be available very soon at Exeter Golf & Country Club, and with such a wide offering our custom-fitting service will be invaluable in finding you the perfect set-up for your set.

Nearly 85% of golfers own multiple pairs of golf shoes, with most players changing between spikeless summer shoes and cleats for the winter months. With the changing weather fast-approaching, it may be time to put the spikes to good use.

adidas Bounce 2.0

When it comes to winter golf shoes, they tend to get beaten up a bit by our local winters. When it’s wet and muddy underfoot or raining down on us, we need golf shoes with outsoles that are up to the task. Do you think it’s time to update your golf shoes?

adidas Tour360 XT

From the Bounce 2.0 to the Tour360 XT, adidas give you everything you need for winter golf. The Bounce 2.0 shoes offer waterproof uppers and ThinTech spikes for added grip, whilst the Tour360 has ThinTech EXP cleats for superior traction and 360Wrap for a more supportive fit.
