Hello Golfers,
 

Welcome to another edition of our newsletter.

American Brooks Koepka backed up his big claim that ‘Majors are the easiest tournaments to win’ by taking a wire-to-wire victory at the PGA Championships.

Bethpage Black is a notoriously tricky track but Koepka was firmly in control with a seven-shot lead heading into Sunday.

However, the risk of a blowup was always there and after playing holes 11 through 14 four-over par, it looked like the chasing Dustin Johnson had the potential to haul the leader in.

But it wasn’t to be as Koepka claimed his fourth major title by two strokes and his fourth in his last eight major starts.

Enjoy the read.

 
 
Most overlooked club in the bag?

Thankfully, the penny has dropped when it comes to the importance of getting custom fitted for a new driver or set of irons. Unfortunately, we still see the vast majority of golfers overlook this process when it comes to their fairway woods, but why?

How often do you use yours?

“I wouldn’t use it often enough”
“It's too expensive”
“It's not necessary”

Yeah, I guess if you’re not concerned with shooting lower scores and maximising your potential then a custom fitted fairway wood isn’t that important.

However, if improving your game is something you want to achieve, then having a full set of custom fitted clubs is vital, especially when it comes to gapping between your driver and irons.

One option that we'll definitely get you to try is this beauty from Srixon. It's the only fairway wood in their 2019 range and for good reason, too. A combination of Srixon's Cup Face and Crown Step produce a powerful club that offers consistent distance across the face.

So, let’s get you booked in for a custom fitting with a member of the team and harness your potential with the most overlooked club in the bag.

Heads, shoulders, knees, and toes

The updated Rules of Golf that came into effect on the 1st January were always going to cause plenty of talking points, and none more so than the change of dropping height. A host of Tour players have expressed their concerns, but what do you think?

Shoulder-height drop
Shoulder drop

At the WGC event in Mexico earlier this year, Rickie Fowler was penalized one-shot after dropping from shoulder height rather than knee-height. 

The new rule states that the ball must be dropped straight down from knee-height without touching the player or equipment, meaning shoulder-height dropping is no longer allowed.

Have you fallen foul of the new height drop ruling? If so, we'd love to hear your thoughts.
