Breaking News!

I am delighted to have been selected to become one of Golfbreaks Pro Travel Partners for 2020!

I’ve been using Golfbreaks for several years and have played so many fantastic golf courses, and stayed at some truly great venues. The time away from the club has helped to develop really strong and long-lasting relationships with the members and their guests and I have so many happy memories from my trips.

The team at Golfbreaks make choosing and booking my trips simple. They have the knowledge of all aspects for any golf trips. They offer advice on the courses to suit your group's needs and can also tell you the best places to go to and restaurants when you’re off the golf course.

I’d be happy to share my experience and offer my advice with you if you’re thinking of going on a golfing trip. Just give me a call or drop me an email and we can discuss where you may be going to next.

As well as doing my own trips, I would love to help you with yours. If you are thinking of going away then come in and have a chat and we can make sure that your trip is an unforgettable experience.

The round white thing...

Since the game began in the 15th century, there is one thing that has never changed – the ball being the only piece of equipment used on every shot. Despite this, it still gets a raw deal with some golfers viewing it as less important than the clubs used to hit it. So, we decided to take a look back and see how modern golf balls compare to those of yesteryear.

Callaway's Chrome Soft golf ball

In the beginning

Feathery balls reigned supreme for over 200 years in the early days of golf, but even they are relatively new compared to the original hairy balls (guess what they were stuffed with!).

It's hard to imagine what it would be like playing with those balls these days, and even the later-developed Gutty and Haskell balls left golfers with little-to-no room for error.

Where we are today

100 years ago the thought of using a state-of-the-art Graphene-infused Dual Soft Core to minimise driver spin/maximise distance would have been unthinkable (and probably impossible) – but that is exactly what features in Callaway's Chrome Soft.

Snazzy Truvis styling is something the Chrome Softs offer too for those golfers after something a little bit different. Why not grab a dozen or two and leave the Gutty at home?

Find your sole mate

See what we did there? Finding your sole-mate is no easy task and, yet, as our shoes are the only part of our body that stays in constant contact with the ground during the golf swing (well they should do anyway!), getting it right is crucial for both performance and comfort.

FootJoy UltraFIT Boa shoes

Let those stats sink in for a moment or two. Do they surprise you?

If you're wondering whether your shoes are the right size, here are some tell-tale signs to look out for:

Creasing on the upper
Wear on the inside heel
Stretching around the side

Just because you wear certain sized trainers or smart shoes doesn't mean your golf shoes will follow suit, and that's why we're here to help.

Come in to see us and we'll make sure that you not only walk away with the correct size but also the model that gives you what you want, whether it's stability, comfort or a pair that simply look great - like FootJoy's UltraFIT Boa above.
