Sport Enjoy the summer!
Despite the traditional wet weather of December and January, the 18 hole pay and play golf course at Boothferry Golf Club hasn't been closed, which is testament to the hard work of the green staff and the improved fairway drainage implemented last year by owner Chris Mowforth.
As membership flourishes beyond 350, it is also the Golf Clubs Professional staff that has also recently grown.
Head professional Matthew Rumble says of his increased staff: "With four professionals now on board we can really take golf to the masses. We have two well presented pay and play golf courses in our nine hole Eagles course and the championship length 18 hole course at Boothferry, we have two fully stocked golf shops featuring all the latest equipment and top brands, a 20 bay floodlit driving range open till late and now more Professional staff in order to fulfil demand and improve our tuition services.
"It is at the driving range that the professional staff look to make the biggest difference with their varied tuition programmes to golfers of all ages and abilities.
"Too many golfers are using clubs that just aren't suitable for them, our aim is to show what club fitting brings to each individual and the obvious benefits that will follow. This along with our new repair centre and teaching programmes will ensure that all of our customers leave happy in the knowledge that the equipment they are using is tailor made for them."
Over the coming weeks in the Goole Times, Matt Rumble and Simon Appleton (left 21-02-16 GT) will be offering advice and tips on a whole host of golfing topics from equipment to tuition.
Lesson 1 - The Right Stuff, Lesson 2 -The Final 3rd, Lesson 3 - Striking Gold, Lesson 4 - On The Beach, Lesson 5 - Putt Problems Behind You, Lesson 6 - Enjoy The Summer
Today we start with Lesson 1 which is "The Right Stuff".
Before any improvement plan can begin, we must check what equipment each individual is currently using and what ideas they have for progression. Eg. Different size feet need different size shoes and golf clubs to golfers are no different!
We will check for : Club Length. Shaft Flex. Worn or Wrong Size Grips. Golf Ball Used. Mental Approach, Hand and Glove Size.
All the above are checked to ensure the optimum ball flight and consistency is achieved in order to make YOUR golf is more enjoyable.
Look out for the next edition of the Goole Times for our short game special, The Final 3rd!
