Hello Golfers,

Welcome to another edition of the weekly pro shop newsletter from Bude. We hope you enjoy the read.

Competition news

Easter Fun Day – Sunday, 1 April

We have taken the decision to alter the tee times for the Easter Fun Day Competition. Due to the small number of players currently entered we have changed it from a shotgun start to a regular drawn competition thus freeing up tee times starting at 10:00am. There are still spaces available, so if you would like to play please call us or sign-up in the foyer.

First place - R. Curtis and D. James (44 points), second place - G. Ward and A. Ward (43 points) and in third place - J. Ryan and P. Haddon (43 points).

Captain’s Drive-in

Our Ladies Captain Jill Tucker drove 127 yards and was only just beaten by our Men’s Captain Dave Simmons. Our Club President Peter Kelly and last year's Captain Horrace guessed the driving distance correctly. I would to take this opportunity to wish both Captains good luck and a fun and successful year. I would also like to congratulate Harry Macauley on becoming Junior Captain.

Doesn't he look good?

There’s a well-known phrase: if you can’t beat them, join them. So while it’s unlikely you’ll be challenging for a Ryder Cup place later this year, why not join the world’s best in following the latest golf trends?

Tour stars like Jordan Spieth and Matthew Fitzpatrick aren’t the only fans of this Under Armour Threadborne Tour polo, which has been getting a lot of attention in our shop.

It’s made from a bespoke Threadborne Microthread fabric that dries faster so it doesn’t cling to you, won’t chafe and stretches without absorbing sweat, helping you to get a full range of motion and stay cool.

Spikeless or cleated?

Having the confidence to swing powerfully comes from knowing that you have a stable base, which requires footwear you can trust. There are two types of outsole on modern golf shoes – cleated and spikeless – and we stock a range of both here in the shop, including these two fantastic options.

Opt for off-course versatility
With spring finally on our doorstep it’s a great time of year to consider a pair of spikeless shoes. This Under Armour Performance SL model has a waterproof upper and, despite being spikeless, special rotational resistance traction elements deliver all the grip you need on and off the course.

Choose stability and traction
Get the tour look as well as fantastic grip and stability with this Under Armour Spieth 2 shoe. It’s been created with the help of Jordan Spieth and boasts Gore-Tex waterproof protection, lightweight underfoot cushioning and Rotational Resistance spikes that enhance stability and improve traction.
