East Yorkshire Ladies Winter Golf Alliance Foursomes Matchplay

Monday 5th saw Hornsea representatives,  Angie Hinch and Rosie Atkin heading to Filey GC to take part in this annual East Yorkshire Ladies Winter Golf Alliance Foursomes Matchplay competition.

The morning match was against the Hull couple of Alison and Eileen Clark, and Hornsea were giving 4 shots. Hornsea took the first hole with a par, down to a wonderful chip by Angie, and never looked back. Apart from losing the 2 shot holes, they got to half way 3 up. After a slight hitch on the 12th, they only lost 1 more shot hole  before finishing the match on the short 16th with a par, to win 3 and 2

The afternoon saw Hornsea up against last year's winners, Malton and Norton's single figure pairing of Judy Butler and Carol Simpson,  but receiving 8 shots!! With a shot on the first, Hornsea took an early lead, but then lost the next 2 holes to par, our strategy was working, make them par a hole to win. Hornsea rallied on the 4th and didn't lose another hole, reaching half way 2 up. The next 5 holes were played to par with 2 net birdies, due to some amazing chipping and putting by both Hornsea girls. This was too much for the Malton and Norton pair, and the match was finished with a net birdie, on the 14th to win 5 and 4.

The semi final and final will be played next Monday at Fulford GC, with Hornsea up against York, (who beat Ganton) in the morning round. Good luck!

Seniors 3 Club Challenge 

15 of the seniors took to the course on 28th September to compete for the 3 club plus putter challenge. This was played from the ladies tees and raised some eyebrows with visiting parties. The conditions were perfect, a near cloudless sky with no wind. This was reflected in the scoring as Mike Guidry came home first with a score of 43 points. He only managed to beat Ray McKie by virtue of a better back 9. Malcolm Hester was third on 41 points.

Every one enjoyed the challenge which made a welcome change from the usual seniors weekly games.

Colin in action

Colin was faced with a tricky shot on the 14th from the bunker. It was good to see him on his knees but his prayers were answered as he pulled off a great shot to within a yard of the flag.

Great shot

We tried to persuade him to continue playing on his knees but to no avail.

 
Hull & District Golfing Association

Latest from The Hull and District Golfing Association 

Last Thursday saw the Hull and District Alliance played at Beverley. Some truly amazing scores were posted with 59 not even making the prizes! Our best score came from Jonny Hanson and Stu Pearson with a fantastic 58 which saw them come in 5th place. The winning score came from Cottingham with 55! Our score has kept us in second place but we are now 5 behind Cottingham. Next weeks is to be played at Ganstead so lets hope to make some ground up on them.

 
 
 
The secret to a successful winter

Practice makes perfect, right? But perfect practise gets you there a lot faster. We've said it before - and we'll no doubt say it again - but winter provides the ideal opportunity to iron out some of those faults that have crept into your game.

Areas to work on in your golf game

It starts with a list

Begin by evaluating (out of ten) how close you are to your target for each area of your game. It's always best to be completely honest with yourself when doing this. In other words, forget about the odd time when you've hit a shot like Tiger and focus on what happens consistently round after round.

Where we come in

Now you can see which area of your game needs most work and this is where we will start. Having a lesson tailored specifically to your weakness will make the world of difference. So, if you need a pointer or two from the team, send us a message below. Bragging rights are imminent...

The path to better iron play

Hitting an iron and finding the heart of the green feels great. However, the big change comes when you can repeat that time after time - with the odd exception, of course. Not only will your scores begin to drop, but you'll also be full of confidence every time you pull a club out of the bag.

Professional iron fitting

Timing is everything

First things first, new irons are like a pair of new shoes: they take time to wear in. If you want to be playing your best golf in the spring when the season kickstarts, it’s best to get those new irons in the bag right around…well, now.

PING G410 irons

Which irons to pick

Well, when it comes to confidence with your irons, PING’s G410 irons are what you need. The irons look clean and reassuring behind the ball, and the perimeter weighting helps you strike the ball cleanly more consistently.

To top it all off, going through our fitting experience will ensure you get the most out of any purchase with us. So, if you're wondering whether new irons is the right move for you, why not send us a message?
