There are two fun holiday programs that have been arranged by the Golf Performance and Development Academy for the upcoming school holidays.

Join Rob and Dane for some extra coaching and course play on the 25th and 26th June. There will be a meet and greet up at the range at 8am. Thereafter the day will be kicked off with an hour and a half of specialised coaching followed by 9 holes played off a shortened course to cater for beginners and also very young players. A short snack break and then a short game event to end the day at 1pm, when the young champs can be collected.

Cost per day is R150 and for both days R250. To book a spot for your child in the holiday clinic, please contact Rob or Dane directly. A similar programme has also been arranged for the 9th and 10th July.

Our bowls news starts on a sad note with the sudden passing of Margaret Christison on Sunday. Fondly known as “Money Bags Mags”, Margaret was our bowls club treasurer and long-time loyal member of Benoni Country Club.

Our most sincere condolences to Ron, the family, fellow bowlers and friends.

A mid-Iron second, over a nasty hazard, with more trouble right of the green,
tests your technique, your equipment, your fitting, and your confidence.

 

 
   
A Hybrid has the forgiveness,
and deeper centre of gravity this shot needs.
But some golfers struggle mentally with the
need to strike the ball a descending blow
with a Hybrid.
That’s why some manufacturers have
created Crossovers or Hybrid-Irons.
Mentally it is easier to think about,
and execute, a slightly descending
blow with this club.

 
If there’s an area of your approach shot game from the Fairway that punishes you too often,
there’s potential for scorecard improvement. Use the right fitted equipment with the right technique,
and you’ll be able to take the challenge on with a greater chance of success.
Spend 45 minutes with us. Let’s make a difference.
 

 
 
Got some friends who have just started to learn the game?
Give them a chance to have some fun out on the golf course.

 
 
You don’t have to tee off from the tee box – a hugely daunting and intimidating experience
for someone still struggling to get a full shot airborne consistently.
It will lead to a much longer round and not a lot of joy.
Why not play 9-holes with each hole starting at the 40 metre mark?
 
 
You don’t have to wait for us to create fun golf experiences.
You can create them yourselves as a four-ball, or a small group.
Respect everyone else, but enjoy your golf.

 

Try this with friends, if you’re a regular or even highly competitive golfer.
Come down after work, before work, whenever you have 2 hours.
Play a 9 hole 40 metre Championship. It’s a great game.

Anyone not shooting under 36?
Then it’s time to pay a visit and improve your short game.
