Pro's news

We can't promise you that...

Since last year’s TOUR Championship, Justin Thomas has conjured up five wins – including his maiden Major victory at the USPGA – and seven other top 10 finishes; results that have seen him rise up to fourth in the World Golf Rankings while cementing himself as one of golf’s brightest stars.

These performances, culminating in a runner-up finish in last week's season-ending TOUR Championship, saw Thomas take the top spot in the FedEx Cup (the PGA Tour’s OOM) and the juicy $10 million bonus that goes along with that.

Whilst we can't promise you prize money like that, our coaching can certainly help you to be more consistent and maybe even see your name at the top of a leaderboard over the coming months. If this sounds appealing to you, send us a message via the link below.

New Arrivals

This week has seen all the brand new winter clothing arrive from Under Armour. Once again the guys at Under Armour haven't failed to disappoint with some very stylish bits added to the already popular range. We've taken a look at just a few of the latest additions as to why we think they will prove to be popular amongst the R&CPGC faithful...

The first new member to the line-up is the Reactor Hybrid 1/2 zip pullover.

The best and most amazing thing about this item is that it actually adapts to your activity level so that you will have the right breathability, whether that be waiting on every shot behind a slow fourball or racing round the course to make sure you're back before the other half notices you've gone out.

Under Armour have done this using a lightweight, low-profile insulation embedded between two layers of fabric for the ultimate mix of warmth & breathability.

The Reactor Hybrid is of a loose cut so that even on those wintery days deep into December & January you can still layer up and with stretchy side, back and underarm panels, you can still have a great range of mobility. The soft welded quilting allows for great insulation and better distribution.

The second addition is the Reactor Vest, and just like the pullover version, it also reacts to how active you are and will maintain the correct level of breathability and warmth whilst repelling water at the same time.

A lofty insulation and quilting pattern traps heat without making you feel stifled so even on those bitterly cold days you'll feel toasty warm.

The Reactor Vest also has stretchy sides and shoulder panels so that you can swing free and easy whilst keeping warm.

The final piece to the jigsaw is the Storm Elements 1/4 Zip pullover; a windproof pullover designed to keep the warmth in and the wind out.

The Element has a number of other features such as secure hand pockets, right side seam zip, stretch cuff inserts & adjustable hem all designed to make your round as comfortable as possible.

Next time you're at R&CPGC make sure you take a quick divert via the Under Armour section in the Pro Shop to see if anything grabs your fancy!
