John Murray

Hello Golfers,

We hope you're safe and well.

As we enter the middle of March and The Masters is now just a few weeks away, the golfing juices are bubbling in anticipation of the golfing year ahead. As always, if there's anything that tickles your fancy in this week's email or if you'd like to ask us a question, reply to this email and we'll be happy to help.

We had some more positive news this week as the First Minister gave us a road map out of Covid. We are delighted to have confirmed that we will be allowed to operate a full click and collect facility at the Pro Shop from Monday 5th April and that the shop will be able to reopen for business on Monday 26th April.

In preparation for things moving back to more normal ways, the Pro Shop will be staffed 7 days a week from next Monday 22nd March. So if you need any help or advice then someone will be available to help. The shop will be staffed between 8.30am - 4pm from next Monday and then between 8.00am - 5.00pm from Monday 29th March. Check out some of our return to retail offers later in the newsletter.

Enjoy the read.

Golf on Tour

Deja vu

After a crazy few days of the good, the bad & the ugly at TPC Sawgrass, we appeared to have a repeat of the previous week’s Sunday shoot-out between Bryson DeChambeau and Lee Westwood at the Players Championship…

We didn’t know it at the time but the winner was ultimately decided on the fourth hole. Bryson topped his tee-shot into the water before Westwood sliced his into the drink. Having made a double-bogey six and a bogey respectively, suddenly Bryson and Lee seemed very relatable! In the end, it was Justin Thomas who came through the chasing pack to claim a one-shot victory after what he described as “one of the best rounds of my life tee-to-green.”

If you have trouble off the tee – topping, slicing or anything else – we can certainly help you out. Just send us a message via the button below.

Masters Mania

It's just 3 weeks until the first major of the year gets underway and it's sure to be exciting as ever!

Whos your money on? Will Dechambeau overpower the course? Can Westwood claim his first major at 47? Will Rory find form at the right time?

We will be running our usual Pro Shop Sweepstake with only 96 entries available and £5 per ticket. Players will be randomly drawn as usual and posted the day before the action starts.

We will have our Masters Sweepstake board in the shop and entries can be done via PayPal or contactless at the Pro Shop.

The winner will collect £200, 2nd place £120, 3rd place £80 and a sleeve of Pro V1 balls for the best and worst scores of each day (prizes will go to count back if required so only 1 winner in each prize)

Remember to Repair Your Pitchmarks

We sometimes get used to a firm and fast course once we are into the summer season and at times it can be difficult to find any pitch marks on the greens as a result.

However, the courses are generally a lot softer at this time of year and we are certainly not struggling to see pitch marks on the greens. Please take the time to repair your own pitch mark as this can really make a difference to your greens come the summer season.

The best advice is that if everyone repairs their own plus one other on every green then we won't have any problems and this will give our green staff the best chance of preparing beautiful greens for us all during the season.

Check out Derek's quick video on how to repair a pitch mark correctly and if you don't have a pitchfork then just ask and we will give you one courtesy of the Pro Shop Team!

New Covid Supplies @ Moray GC

New Tartan Crested Face Masks

Things are starting to look more positive and there's light at the end of the tunnel. However, I'm sure it's going to be some time before we are able to ditch our face masks.

More Lightweight Snoods in Stock

Therefore I've taken delivery of some MGC crested face masks along with stocking up on our MGC snoods. The face masks are available for £9.99 (Black, Navy) £12.00 for Tartan (limited stock) and £14.99 for our crested snoods.

Let’s play with pride

We take a lot of pride in our golf club, and we hope that shows. We also hope that you’re proud of your club too. So with lots of golf set to be played in 2021, why not treat yourself to a piece of club crested apparel?

Glenmuir’s range of shirts, sweaters and jackets are all available with our crest smartly embroidered on the chest or sleeve. No matter where you go in the world – on or off the golf course – you can show everybody that you’re a proud member of Moray Golf Club.

Glenmuir treat embroidery as an art form; every bespoke garment is crafted with quality and class. Hand-finishing and pressing every crest shows that Glenmuir love what they do just like we love our club. So, why not show that you love our club too?

What do fairway woods give you?

The first question to ask yourself is: ‘What does a fairway wood add to my golf game?’. Any club that’s going in your bag should be giving you something you wouldn’t have without it; different shots and distances to any other club.

Cleveland Launcher HB Turbo Fairway Woods

Well, when it comes to hitting those different shots, a fairway wood is incredibly useful. The versatile design gives you a safe option off the tee, a lengthy shot from the fairway and can even help you get out of tight spots in the rough or around the greens. The clubs have evolved for this purpose.

Cleveland’s Launcher HB Turbo fairway woods are a perfect example of the way new technology boosts these benefits. The Turbocharged Cup Face pairs with deep weighting for incredible, easy distance from the tee or the turf. Additionally, they’ve engineered a forgiving HiBORE Crown and brought the centre of gravity forward to give you consistent shots from any lie and any area of the face.

It’s not long until you can get playing again, so click the button below to find out about booking a fitting with us in the near future.
