A week of snow... Not much action here at R&CPGC last week thanks to the white stuff but Rob did manage to get a few pictures and has dubbed the week the Admin Day Test Series. Here's his collection from the week... |

Epic Flash... The first of the BRAND NEW 2019 gear made it's way to the ProShop last week in the shape of the Callaway Epic Flash driver. We've given you teaser videos so now it is time to tell you what it's all about... |
Artificial Intelligence - Callaway implemented a supercomputer to design their fastest face yet, it even took the supercomputer 15,000 attempts before it came up with this one...to put this into perspective, it would have taken a team of humans 30 YEARS to come up with the same result!
What does this mean for you though? Simply, it means faster ball speeds from the more centred hits. The Epic Flash's predecessor, Epic, was fantastic for maintaining ball speeds on off centre hits but was no real reward for buttoning one right out the screws. Now you have the best of both worlds!
Jailbreak - The technology that revolutionised drivers, of course, stays in the Epic Flash. When the clubface makes contact with the ball the crown and sole expand for milliseconds which means the energy transferred to the ball is not as efficient. Callaway have fitted 2 bars which hold the crown and sole in place and stop this expansion which gives maximum energy transfer to the golf ball.

 | Ready and waiting for the first R&CPGC patron.

Carbon Crown - A brand new ultra lightweight crown with a tighter weave has allowed for the weight saving to be redistributed to the perimeter of the club to give it the same high forgiveness on off centre hits as its Rogue compatriot.
Adjustability - The Flash not only possess the Opti-Fit sleeve which offers 9 different loft and face angle combinations but it also boasts a sliding 16g perimeter weight. This sliding weight makes ball flight controllability a heck of a lot easier, whether that be a draw, fade or just straightening the flight.
Premium Shafts - Callaway offer 3 amazing shafts as standard, the Project X Even Flow, Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black and Mitsubishi Tensei. All of these shafts have widely different characteristics giving ultimate choice, maximising the chances of finding the correct combination for you.

Callaway Experience Day If you want to be treated like a Tour Professional for the day then why not take a trip round to Callaway's National Fitting Centre in Chessington and take a look at all the BRAND NEW clubs for 2019.
On Wednesday 13th March we have booked a handful of times for the R&CPGC patrons to take full advantage of the state of the art Trackman technology & simulator as well as the thousands of different head & shaft combinations.
Please note that we must release these times back to Callaway on Thursday 28th February as demand for custom fits is extremely high at the moment. Each slot is 1 hour long and designed to fit just one category (driver/woods, irons & hybrids or putter) but full bag fits are available too.
So if you would like to take one of the slots then please see the availability below and contact the ProShop on 01474823658, email warren_wood@hotmail.co.uk or pop into the ProShop.

| New shoes? Walk this way... |
Golf is first and foremost a walking sport, with many of us strolling more than five miles in a pair of shoes every single round. You might read that fact and instantly recall getting off the 18th green wanting nothing more than a sit-down, feet aching, after realising your shoes aren’t as comfortable as they ought to be. Well, if that is the case, it might well be time for a change... |
Just arrived - Under Armour Spieth 3 This is the third generation of the Spieth shoe, which - as you can probably guess - has been designed on the back of feedback from superstar Jordan Spieth. It continues with a huge focus on traction and power, with its Rotational Resistance outsole helping you to grip the ground on every shot. In addition to this and its lightweight flexibility, the Spieth 3 also has a Gore-Tex membrane for complete waterproof protection - essential for golf in the UK! |
