Pros news 

This week I was fortunate enough to be at The Renaissance Club at the product launch of the new Titleist 917 driver and fairway woods. Monday was filled with product testing, launch details and fitting training. Whilst on Tuesday we were lucky to get a great day out on the course. 

It is a brilliant new product line with so much adjustability to help all levels of golfers. 

It really is the most incredibly easy to use driver and of course with the right fitting of shaft, grip and head combination it is very long too. With the new Surefit CG setting and Surefit hosel the ability to lose any bad shot direction or to change trajectory is easier than ever before to help your golf.

My own particular bad shot is a pull hook left so I ended up personally with the D3 driver head to ensure there was no heel weight bias which encourages a left shot. The Surefit GC weight went to a fade setting and my loft went up to a 9.75 setting in the 10.5 head, rather than D2 9.5 previously. We also flattened the head by 0.75 degrees to also help the face point less left at impact. The diffence was very noticeable both in length and direction. It's very exciting times for Titleist going forward I think.

If you would like to try the product we will be one of the first in Scotland to have the new fitting cart. It arrives week commencing 21st of September so please book in a fitting any time from the 25th of September.

Competition news 

Ladies Open Greensome

The winners were Linda Jack & Fiona Macgregor from Dumfries & Galloway. Ladybank members Aileen Penny & Jean Duncan came 4th.

 


Sunday past saw the club host the annual match v Montrose Mercantile. The match result was a win for Ladybank by 6 matches to 2. The scores were as follows: 

Match 1: Sandy Preston & Brian McSkimming - match halved. 
Match 2: Duncan Glass & Fergus Johnstone - lost 3 & 2 
Match 3: Graeme Cockburn & Irvine Wilson - won 5 & 3 
Match 4: Mike Hay & Tom Black - won 2 & 1 
Match 5: Bobby Hogg & Arthur Joyce - match halved 
Match 6: Danny Cuthbert & Calum Anderson - won 5 & 4 
Match 7: Dave Patrick & Mike Stone - won 2up 
Match 8: Eric Stark & Joe Lonie - won 4 & 3 

This was very much a "social" match, however everyone had a great day and the Montrose members enjoyed the course and our hospitality. 

A big thanks to all that took part. 

Next year the fixture is 'away' with a date in early September expected.
