Hello Golfers,

Academy news

Open all weathers…

You won’t have missed the fact that we are even more popular than usual when the weather is bad and the courses are closed, so it’s no surprise that February was a record month with over 400,000 balls hitting the outfield.

And it’s also no surprise that Toptracer continues to be a great practice tool as well as a fun way to spend time with your friends and family.

Remember that if you’d like to secure a bay before you arrive you can do so by following this link and book a private bay for up to four people, or call us ahead on 01962 885254 and we can book you in.

Champagne Wednesday…

Don’t forget that every Wednesday evening at Winchester Golf Academy is Champagne Wednesday.

Play Toptracer Closest to the Pin, and nearest on the night wins a bottle of award-winning and local Raimes English sparkling wine.

It’s FREE to enter, just purchase a basket of balls at the Academy desk and head out to the Toptracer bays.

The science of putting at Winchester Golf Academy this March…

Our Become a Master Putter three-week course is for you if you’re interested in understanding the science behind putting and how to apply it to benefit your stroke. The sessions will be run by our PGA Pro James on three Sundays starting 22nd March at 2.30pm.

And if you’ve ever suffered from the putting yips at that crucial moment, James is also running a one-off session on how to manage those key movements on Wednesday 22nd April at 6.30pm.

Call 01962 885254 or speak to James for more details and to book your space.

The art of putting

‘Drive for show, putt for dough’. No doubt you have heard this one a few times before but considering putting equates to between 30 to 50% of our shots on the course, it also has a large element of truth in it.

Odyssey Stroke Lab Triple Track putters

There's some clever technology out there to help you putt better. For example, Odyssey has taken the Triple Track Alignment from the ERC Soft golf ball and combined it with their Stroke Lab shaft to create this stunning range of putters.

If you're someone who struggles to line up correctly on the greens, come and try Odyssey's Triple Track putters at Winchester Golf Academy. Better putting might just be around the corner.

The whole puzzle

If you're considering buying new irons this year, have a think about how they are going to blend into the rest of your set. The idea is to have equal yardage gaps between each club in your bag so, if you are going to treat yourself, it might be worth replacing a long iron with a hybrid that is easier to hit.

Take danger out of play

The illustration here is a good example of where a hybrid comes in handy. When our driver brings danger into play and a long-iron leaves us too far to the green, a hybrid is the perfect option.

One hybrid that we particularly like is the PING G410. Its thinner and more flexible face generates good ball speed and a nice high launch. Call us on 01962 885254 if you fancy trying it out.
