I hope this week's newsletter finds you all fit and well. This week’s email is packed full of great features. Be sure to scroll down to the Video of the Week to see some amazing Harry Houdini moments from the European Tour. We’re also talking wedges, landing spots when chipping, and we have our monthly quiz for you to give a go (this might just be our best yet!). It's been great to see so many of you out enjoying the golf course and the great weather since we came out of lockdown. Things have moved on at quite a pace since our return to 2 ball golf on the 14th May. It has only taken us 3 weeks to get to 3 ball golf and I am sure 4 balls will not be too much longer. The important things to remember are certainly sticking to the 2 meters apart and once the pro shop opens up allowing you to come back in, to sanitise your hands on entry. At the moment the pro shop is open between 7.45am and 3.00pm each day with the exception of Saturdays when we are open until 4.00pm. With regard to the pro shop staff situation, I am doing the majority of the shop hours with Grahame helping me out to allow me some teaching times and club fitting appointments. Sam is on the furlough scheme but will be returning once things start to return to normal. All three of us are available to give lessons. All lessons are outside on the practice ground with strict social distancing and cleaning procedures in place. I will be using the outdoor practice net in conjunction with the GC2 ball-tracking technology to do club fittings. In the pro shop we are operating an Ask/Order and Collect service. We have had a great response to this service, so a big thank you to you all for your continued support. It covers all items in the shop or anything we need to order for you. You can message, email or just ask at the door when you arrive at the club or before leaving after your round. If there is anything you need for your golf just ask and we will deliver it to the door. All payments are made by credit or debit card. We are your pro shop and we are here to help you. We intend to open the pro shop up fully on Tuesday 16th July, the pro shop will be open from 7.45am to 5.00pm on each day. If you wish to buy anything or just want to have a browse and a chat there will be some basic rules in place which we will need you all to follow. There will be hand sanitiser at the entrance to the shop, every person that enters must use this please. There will be a one-way system to get to the counter, which you must use. As you enter the shop you will be directed by arrows on the floor pointing to the left which will take you around the shop in a clockwise direction with short cuts to the counter. The 2-metre social distancing will need to be maintained at all times. Once you get to the counter there will be a screen in place similar to those you may have seen in shops already. We will only be allowing a maximum of 2 people in the shop at any one time. All of the above is subject to change if we receive different instructions from the government or the golf governing bodies. We will keep you informed. Stay safe and enjoy the read.
