Neil Matthews took a gamble last Saturday. After a club fitting session at The Pro Shop he put a new driver straight into his bag for the final of the Millennium Trophy. Neil didn't even have time to test his new secret weapon beforehand but was confident enough with the improved specifications on the TaylorMade M2 driver to take the plunge.
Thankfully for Neil it paid off and his confidence in his new club helped him with his 3&1 winning margin against Harry Garside. Neil said his driving proved the decisive factor during the match. Well played Neil, fortune favours the brave!
Foremost Conference next week
I will be attending the annual 2 day Golf Conference at Milton Keynes next week.
Foremost and key golf manufactures /suppliers will be presenting individual retail and sales training seminars throughout the 2 days. I will also be networking with over 100 fellow golf professionals at this industry leading educational event.
Armed with the feedback I received from you all in my recent customer survey. I will be viewing all 2017 seasons new equipment and I promise to report back all the interesting bits in next week's newsletter.
Also included in the 2-day event I will be attending the Foremost Golf Industry Awards dinner. This is where awards are given to the leading manufacturers and products for 2016.
I know all this sounds tough but someone has to do it.
