Arriving soon: TaylorMade GAPR

TaylorMade has always been an innovative company, coming up with some fantastic ideas such as Twist Face and SLDR. Arriving in-store mid-September is the latest on their conveyor belt in GAPR. Designed to bridge the gap between your longest playable iron and your shortest metalwood, there are three GAPR options (Hi, Mid and Lo) that are set to take the market by storm.

Introducing Cleveland RTX 4

Trying to hit your wedge shots the same way as the pros can be frustrating, especially when you see the amount of spin they achieve from all sorts of lies. Yes, technique plays a part, but so does having a set of wedges that you can trust in every situation.

A wedge fit for tour

Available in September, Cleveland's latest wedge incorporates feedback from some of the world's best golfers, such as Graeme McDowell, to make this their most tour-authentic wedge to date.

As the name suggests, the RTX 4 is the fourth generation of the RTX family, with each seemingly better than the last. Cleveland says the RTX 4 will provide ultimate short game control, thanks to increased spin generation from their sharpest grooves to date.

So, if you're serious about improving around the greens, come and speak to us about a custom fitting.

And the award goes to...

Always trying to raise the bar on previous models isn’t an easy job, but it’s for this reason that technology has advanced considerably in the past few years. It means we’ve never been in a better position to help you enjoy your golf, from drivers right through to shoes.

Come and see what all the fuss is about
This award-winning Skechers GO GOLF Pro V3 shoe has been recognised for its affordability, style and lightweight comfort.

If you try these on you’ll immediately notice the cushioned Resamax insoles, as well as Skechers’ 5-Gen lightweight and responsive cushioning. There are also leather uppers and an air-mesh lining for breathability that you’ll enjoy.

We think it’s obvious why this shoe was selected as one of the best of the year, but to see if you agree, drop by the store.

If you're someone who likes to open up the face on your wedges and hit higher lob shots, TaylorMade's Hi-Toe wedge will be right up your street.

I hope you have a great week.
