The Ryder Cup

Wow, What a Ryder Cup that was... Congratulations team Europe on an amazing win against one of the strongest ever

American teams. There was much speculation about how team USA was going to be just too strong for the Europeans and that it could be a big winning margin for the

Americans. I never bought into that idea for 2 reasons. Firstly, I know just how good our players are and that they would not be intimidated in the slightest by the superstars on the opposition team.

Back in the olden days of Ryder Cup, our players used to go weak at the knees when playing against a big name American. Now of days our players absolutely savour the opportunity to take the scalp of a higher ranked player.

My second reason and by far the main reason that I believed we would win is our amazing team spirit and camaraderie. Every single member of our team was 100% committed to his team mates and this was so obvious for all to see. From Poulter’s chest pumping to Sergio’s Ole, ole, ole, ole.

And then there was Molliwood... what more can be said about this amazing partnership of Francesco Molinari and Tommy Fleetwood.

They were by far the highlight of the 2018 Ryder Cup and what a pairing they became. Nine points from ten, breaking records and stronger bond you will never see between team mates. Their ‘morning after’ video, summed them and team Europe up perfectly. If you have not seen the video, you absolutely must look it up on team Europe facebook page.

The video has Frankie and Tommy waking up in bed together, with the Ryder Cup resting between them. I’ll not spoil the rest, but it’s hilarious and sums up our team.

Team USA was not so much a team, but rather 12 individuals playing under a banner. Until they can let their egos go and play for the team, there will be many more European victories.

To sleeve or not to sleeve

Being underprepared when you're out on the course is a blunder which we've all been guilty of making. As the cold weather starts rolling in, you need to start thinking about some layering pieces that keep you warm and dry, but also lets you have freedom of movement during your round. Luckily for you, we have just the answer.

Glenmuir Munro Zip Neck sweater

Glenmuir has given you a perfect solution in the form of its Munro Zip Neck sweater. The cashmere-cotton combination makes it a great choice for those of you looking for a soft and warm jumper when you're out on the course. Plus, its lightweight fabric enhances your freedom of movement with minimal restriction, making this the perfect golfing mid-layer.

Glenmuir Thurso Padded gilet

If you prefer the sleeveless approach, why not try this sleeveless gilet? Made from a stretch fabric, it not only helps you swing the club easily despite the extra layer, but also allows for a superior fit. It comes in a choice of three stunning colourways, and is flexible enough for you to wear a pullover underneath on the chilliest of days.

The best of the best

Some fantastic iron sets have been released over the course of 2018, but it's still Titleist's range of 718 irons from 12 months ago that continue to impress many of you during custom fittings.

Distance and Forgiveness
Titleist AP1

If you're looking to see your handicap tumble, this model from Titleist should be on your list.

Yes, you'll get maximum distance and forgiveness from the AP1, but what we love most is the attention to detail: the 5 and 4 irons have a hollow body design, making them easier to launch along with being more forgiving on mis-hits.

Playability and Precision
Titleist CB

If you're a low handicap golfer looking to upgrade your set, come and try out the impressive 718 CB.

A tour-preferred profile gives these cavity back irons a clean look for the better player, whilst the forged heads also make for a more responsive feel, giving you the feedback you need as you look to hone in on the pin.

Players' Distance Iron
Titleist AP3

The AP3 is the newest model within Titleist's line-up, aiming to fill a gap within their range.

Traditionally, you'd have to compromise on looks if you wanted a distance-orientated iron. However, the AP3 from Titleist maintains the classic players' shape and feel for enhanced playability, whilst offering impressive distance.

Spotlight: New Srixon balls

When you've got a great product, there's no need to make wholesale changes just for the sake of it but, instead, little refinements can go a long way.

This is exactly what Srixon has done in the new Soft Feel and UltiSoft golf balls for 2018. The Soft Feel is ideal for golfers looking to maximise distance, whereas the UltiSoft is the choice for slower swinging golfers - both of which are available in-store now.
