Congratulations to Terry and Mick who have been working with me on a couple of swing improvements. It goes to show with the correct guidance and a little hard work the results will come. Well played guys.

Wow. What a strike

How good does it feel when you strike the ball right out of the sweet spot? Pretty special, right? As much as we'd all love to, striking the centre of the clubface on every shot isn't realistic, which is why opting for some irons with added MOI could make all the difference.

What is MOI?

An iron’s actual sweet spot is no bigger than a pinhead, with anything struck outside resulting in the clubhead beginning to twist at impact – this is what is commonly referred to as MOI. The higher a club's MOI, the more stable it is through impact and therefore more resistant to twisting. So...

Higher MOI = More forgiving

The secret to better strikes

So, here's the secret to getting that special feeling more often with your irons:

Coaching – Yep, let’s take some time to assess your swing to ensure you're giving yourself the best chance of success

Try out PING’s G410 irons – These great looking game improvement irons feature toe and hosel weighting to increase MOI for more forgiveness

Let’s start getting a little extra forgiveness back in your game with a fun-filled custom fitting session with your local PGA professional – that’s us!

Battle of the balls

It’s time to bring you aheavyweight contest as two brilliant models of golf ball duke it out for your attention in a bid to convince you they should be making their way into your bag. Let the battle commence...

Which ball will come out on top?

Callaway Supersoft

The Supersoft is up first and, as you can probably guess from the name, the ball is Callaway’s softest to date thanks to an updated cover.

Enhanced feel, better greenside control and longer carries from improved aerodynamics make this two-piece ball a vast improvement on previous generations.

You'll find the Supersoft comes in at a cheaper price-point to its challenger, but will come out on top for those who prioritise distance over everything else.

Callaway Chrome Soft

If you want to play a ball that is fantastic in all departments and one that's trusted by the world's best (including Phil Mickelson) then the Chrome Soft will win this battle.

It's four-layer construction combines with an ultra-soft Urethane cover for Tour-level feel, control and distance.

For a more expensive price point you get a brilliant all-rounder that will offer you something in all departments; not to mention it's available in snazzy TruVis designs for a personal style.
