I managed to catch Pro Shop Cup winner, Matt Titheridge, in the shop on Saturday, so congratulations to Matt on his win. For any of you members that want a chance for some silverware the Bogey Cup is the next event played over the 8th -11th of August on the Parkland course.

Thank you all for your positive feedback for the instructional videos I've been making, but this week I've gone for something different as I do feel sometimes club golfers take the game far to seriously sometimes.

Everyone plays better golf when they're relaxed and the mind is not wrestling with other demons. Golf should be your stress relief away from the pressures of life, you don't need the same driver shaft as Rory or the same belt buckle as Sergio to play your best game. East Horton is a great place to unwind - no traffic noise, plenty of flora and fauna to look at and you get to play the great game too.

I did have a few more trick shots for you but it went a bit wrong for me at the end. In my 20s I used to hit my driver off the toes of peoples golf shoes so if anyone's up for that I am happy to give it a try!

New in this week some more TaylorMade mini drivers and the new PING G30 range
