Enjoy the read.

The Masters

What a finish to The Masters!

What a great week of golf, awesome scoring and all the top players competing going into the last 9 holes on Sunday. Well done to Patrick Reed who held them all off to win his first Major and the Green Jacket.

The only issue I see and its similar to the Old course St Andrews is how low scoring and easier/shorter these golfers make the course look. I can see soon that the 13th at Augusta will become a par-4 as at the moment it’s a par-5 but these guys are hitting 5/6 irons in for their second shots.

I also like listening to Peter Alliss on BBC coming out with his little quips and stories and then we have Ken on the course showing us the slopes and speeds of the greens.

Attached are the results for the members Masters draw, well done to Lady captain Julie Oates who selected P.Reed, H.Stenson and B.Watson and scored 14 points in total.

No penalty

Golf can be a frustrating game at the best of times, but incurring a penalty stroke when you’ve accidentally done something wrong seems very unfair, especially when that one stroke could be the difference between getting a handicap cut or not.

Current Rules
Under the current Rules of Golf, if you accidentally nudge your ball while addressing it you incur a one-stroke penalty and must replace it (18-2). The only exception relates to if it is accidentally moved in the process of marking it. In this case, it must be replaced and there is no penalty (20-1).

New Rules from 2019
The new proposed rule (13.1c) states there will no longer be a penalty for accidentally causing your ball to move on the green and you must replace it on its original spot.

Let us make it simple for you

We pride ourselves on being the only place you need to go for your golfing needs, which is especially true for golf balls. But we also realise that because we offer a wide range, it can be hard to know which model is right for your game.

Tour performance

The TaylorMade TP5 and lower spinning TP5x offer excellent performance from tee-to-green, which is why they’re the choice of top players like Rory McIlory and Justin Rose. Each of its five layers has been specifically designed to help an aspect of your game, whether that's driver distance, spin or feel.

Perfect for slower swingers

The TaylorMade Project (a) and Project (s) balls make it easier for slower swingers to generate distance. Like TP5, Project (a) has a urethane cover that creates greenside spin, plus the same aerodynamic dimple pattern, while the Project (s) feels even softer on full shots.
