Welcome to this week's newsletter, bringing you all the latest news and offers from here at Long Ashton GC. We hope you're having a great week on and off the golf course.
Enjoy this week's read. |
Head in the right direction with the Garmin GPS Watch GPS watches are essential when it comes to decision making on the golf course. If you want to stay focused on your game, this is the golf watch for you. |
Based on your location, the easy-to-use Approach S10 golf watch automatically chooses the course you’re playing from more than 41,000 preloaded courses worldwide with free lifetime updates. Then it provides yardages to the front, back and middle of the green as well as hazards and doglegs. Complete a hole, and it automatically transitions to the next hole as you walk from the green to the next tee box.
For added convenience, keep score right on your Approach S10. At the end of your round, it provides a summary of your round showing total distance played, total time and score. And, as a remarkably comfortable everyday watch, it also displays the current time and date plus sunrise and sunset times. Its rechargeable battery lasts up to 12 hours in GPS mode. And don’t fear the water holes, because Approach S10 is waterproof up to 50 metres.

Re-gripping service Why is re-gripping beneficial?
Re-gripping is normally used to replace the stock grips found on clubs which are the wrong size or a grip which is purely seen better days. It’s good to choose a grip that best matches the size of your hands. When considering this it’s good to select a material, texture, design and colour that’s best suited to your style, playing level and weather conditions.
However, one of the most popular and main reasons we change the grips are to replace worn-out, slick grips that contribute to excessive grip tension and pressure. |
In theory, your grips should be replaced every 40 rounds or every 30 rounds if you’re spending a considerable amount of time at the practice range. Regardless of rounds played, a grip should always be replaced at the first sign of noticeable wear such as hard surfaces, shiny patches, cracks, wear spots and complete loss of tack.
Improperly sized grips and grips that aren’t suited for certain weather conditions will negatively impact your game and cost you strokes.
