I am in need of a volunteer to be my "Game Improvement Champion". The idea is that I take someone under my wing for eight weeks and help them work on all aspects of their game and check their equipment is well suited and in turn improve their golf scores, all at a small cost to the volunteer.

Anyone volunteering must be available at least once a week to undertake their lessons and be prepared to have their progress reported weekly in my newsletter as well as writing their own thoughts on their progress. I want to use all my years of experience as a coach, a custom fitter and PGA professional to help someone make big progress in a fairly short space of time!

This is something I have wanted to do for quite a while and I'm sure it is going to be a fun and exciting challenge and if you want to be considered for this project then please contact me here if you are interested.

Custom fitting: the misconceptions

"I'm not good enough to get custom fit." Probably the biggest misconception we face, along with "It's too expensive" and various other ideas that don't stack up. We take great pleasure in seeing someone improve and whilst lessons play a major part in that, getting custom fit gives you the best possible chance of enjoying better golf; and that's whether you're a 20-handicapper or single figure golfer.

This game can be hard enough, but no matter what your level, arming yourselves with equipment that is right for your own swing is a must. We wouldn't deter anyone from buying a new set of irons from the shop, but we'd be happier ensuring they were fit for you, and, ultimately, you will be too.

So, if you're sceptical about the merits of custom fitting, then come and speak to us, we're here to help.
