Do you fear the sand?

In this week's video we are looking at improving your bunker game by sharing some key points.

So, if you're someone who leaves it in the sand more than they get it out or you would just like to get it closer to the hole, then tune in to this week's video tips from our great Topsham Golf Academy with Darren and Dave.

If you have any questions, we'd love to hear from you and you can get in touch with us below!

Want anything? Let us know!

In line with government guidelines, we're running an Order and Collect service to satisfy your golfing needs. From golf balls to clothing, send us a message if there's anything you're after and we'll get it ready for you.

Scratch your golfing itch

After an amazing Masters tournament, we don't blame you for wanting to get out on the course at the next possible opportunity (hopefully, it won't be too much longer). So, why not prepare now for when the time comes by ordering anything you need from your local pro shop?

Thank you for shopping local

We appreciate it's easy to shop online at times like these but we're just as competitive in the pro shop. Whether it's a dozen balls to keep your putting stroke going at home or a new club-crested sweater to put under the tree next month, send us a message below and we'll get back to you.

Not going the extra yard

Golfers have enough hoops to jump through on the course if we want a respectable scorecard at the end of it. With golf balls not travelling as far in cold air and not getting the usual run out off the tee, it feels like the winter is just throwing even more obstacles our way!

Rather than trying to rip the skin off the ball by swinging extra fast - especially when it's into the wind - the better option is always to club up. What we would usually see as say 7-iron range, suddenly becomes 6 or even 5-iron range.

Long irons and hybrids can be very useful at this time of year, especially the latter. Being able to swing the club normally opposed to trying to hit it harder will impart less spin on the ball and give you a better chance of finding the centre of the clubface.

Video of the Week

Given how impressive Dustin Johnson's driving was en-route to picking up his first Green Jacket, this week's video comes from inside TaylorMade's Tour Truck. Enjoy as they talk us through how they build DJ's driver, including some bespoke bits just for the world number one.

I hope you enjoyed this week's newsletter. As always, if you have anything that you'd like to contribute please speak to one of the pro shop team. I'll see you at the club over the coming days.
