Hello golfers,

It's been a challenging week this week as the weather took a turn for the worst on Sunday and Monday followed by storm Angus on Monday night. Our Captain & Pro match against Adam Wieckowski & Grant Buxton on Sunday was cancelled, considering our run of results maybe that's not a bad thing - even against those two!! On Saturday evening I spent until midnight waiting for an AA van to turn up as Nicky's car decided to breakdown, in a Tesco's car park of all places. The electric hand brake had jammed on and the damn thing just wouldn't move. I'd waited for nearly 4 hours for the low loader to arrive only to be told that they couldn't take the car as the garage we were going to was closed! As frustrating as it was, the service from both AA guys was excellent, especially considering the weather. I'm just not looking forward to the bill from VW!


Captain pro challenge 

Cameron Cup Update 

Following the cancelled match on Sunday we faced our penultimate challenge on a lovely November Wednesday. We were up against Steve Moore & Pete Hannant who got off to a fantastic start, Pete was 1 under par for his first 5 holes and then Steve took over on the next few holes, we just couldn't keep up with them and found ourselves 5 down after just 8 holes. We managed to win the 9th, 10th and then the 12th to get the match back on track. I made a nice birdie on the 13th only to lose the hole to Pete who also made an excellent birdie for a 3 nett 2. Another birdie on the 15th got us back to 2 down followed by a halve on the 16th meaning we were 2 down with 2 to play. Up steps the Captain on the 17th who made a 20 foot putt for a 4 nett 3 to keep the game going and he wasn't finished there, 10 minutes later he'd made another 4 nett 3 on the last (including a fabulous chip from the edge of the green) to win the last two holes and to save the match, well played Skipper! It's always tough when you lose a big lead in a match, Pete & Steve were very gracious and, like every challenge we've faced this year, made another generous donation to the Captain's charity. So our last challenge is scheduled for next Wednesday against Del Atkinson & Geoff Hubbard.

Lady Captain Successfully Drives In 

Thank you to all the ladies who participated in our new Ladies Captain, Anne Stevenson's, Drive In Competition last Thursday. In some tricky conditions Deryn Hemment & Beryl Paterson won the 9 hole team competition. Also a thank you to Mary from Swing Out Sister (our ladies clothing company) who looked after all of us so well. 

You can see from the video how Anne got on with her drive (we won't mention the first one Anne!). 

Flick Saunders
, who came second in the team competition, also predicted exactly where Anne's drive finished - straight down the middle of the fairway - of course!

Tour news 

Gary King Update 

What a week it was for Gary King, you may remember I mentioned he was playing in the final qualifying stage of Tour School in Spain, with two rounds to go he was in 42nd place and, as the top 25 and ties gain their Tour Card for the European Tour next year, he had everything to play for. Unfortunately he didn't have the best of 5th rounds and had it all to do on the final day. As he's proved over the last few years, nothing seems to faze him and he produced a superb round of 66 (-6) including an eagle on his 16th hole to finish on the number - great play Gary, I'm sure you'll join me in congratulating him and I look forward to reporting on more success on the European Tour next year.


Assistants news 

It's not too early to set a golfing resolution for 2017 

Amazingly there are just 4 Sundays left before Christmas day and it won't be long before we are looking forward to the new season. 

I wrote at the start of this year about setting a golfing resolution for the season ahead, how many of you set yourself a goal? How many of you reached it? 

We all enjoy our golf more if we play better - everyone is capable of lowering their scores, hitting it straighter, further, putting better, chipping better etc. But to achieve any one of these you need to make a change. 

Why not set a resolution for 2017 now and get your golfing year off to the best possible start.

This year's winter improvement package is a fantastic way to improve your golf through the winter months. Due to the popularity of the package I'm extending the winter coaching offer into 2017.

The package includes an initial  assessment session - lasting an hour and a half we will assess your current game by playing a few holes on course, followed by 3 x 45 minute sessions - to be used one per month through February/March/April. Following the assessment we highlight one or two areas to focus on with the coaching sessions.

The Package is available for just £155.

For more information or to book, contact Jo - assistant.professional@tyrrellswoodgolfclub.com  


Forget socks, golf lessons make the best stocking fillers this Christmas! 

If the family are looking to treat you, or maybe you have someone you are struggling to find the perfect gift for - look no further than a Christmas Coaching Voucher.

  • 2 x 45minute coaching sessions - £75
  • 4 x 45minute coaching sessions - £150
  • 6 x 45minute Coaching sessions - £225

Vouchers are only available to purchase up to 24th December For more information contact Jo - assistant.professional@tyrrellswoodgolfclub.com
