Bags of fun

Winter is coming, but we know that won't prevent you avid golfers getting out on the course to face biting winds, muddy shoes and, most of all, rain. Lots and lots of rain. With this in mind, it's more important than ever to have a golf bag which will keep your clubs and belongings dry during a downpour.

Introducing Mizuno BR-DRI

This is where a cart bag like the BR-DRI comes into play. Fully waterproof, this bag will keep your mind at ease when playing in even the worst of the winter weather, as you’ll be confident that your valuables will be safe and dry inside thanks to watertight fabric and a matching rain-hood.

Weighing in at only 2.25 kgs, this cart bag is also an incredibly easy lift in and out of the car, whilst its seven practical zip pockets will give you enough storage space for all your waterproofs, mitts and extra layers that are essential for winter golf.

What do you take from this?

As golfers, there's nothing more satisfying than a shot which is perfectly executed - even if it is a rare occurrence for many of us. It could be a booming drive which splits the fairway down the middle, or maybe a wedge shot which stops dead, two feet away from the hole. In fact, when you consider how often we use our wedges during a round of golf - see the graph below - the latter is something that we should all be striving to achieve.

Average % of shots for a club golfer

So, what do you take from the graph above? In our eyes, it highlights just how important your short game is. We see a lot of you spending time hitting balls on the range, which is great, but don't neglect the less glamorous side of the game when practising - it's where your score is 'made'.

We can't stress the benefits of having wedges that are suited to every aspect of your game either. With a wedge like Callaway's Mack Daddy 4, we can take you through a custom fitting to find out which of its four sole grinds will help you strike the ball more consistently, as well as ensuring you have no gaps between clubs for the perfect wedge system.

Spotlight: Glenmuir's Merino Superwool

There's more to choosing a sweater to buy than simply what looks best, as the fabric it's made from plays a huge role in its performance and how long it'll keep its shape.

Take Glenmuir's Wikie sweater for example: it's made from 100% Merino wool, which means not only does it stretch for a comfortable fit, but it then returns to its natural shape once worn.

Changing your swing to hit different shots can result in lots of different issues, so make things easier for yourself by following this simple tip from Major winner Graeme McDowell.
