Welcome to this week's edition to Stanton on the Wolds Golf Club's weekly newsletter. We hope that you're having a fine week both on and off the golf course. Enjoy the read.

It's a washout... Sadly, it’s the weather that takes centre stage again this week. Unfortunately, due to the heavy rain Friday evening and Saturday morning, the course was closed and the end of season competition had to be cancelled. If you’re ever unsure if the golf course is going to be open, or if there are any course restrictions like no buggies or trolleys on a particular day, the greenkeepers do a course inspection every day at first light and update the course status on the club website. Hopefully the golf course won’t be closed again this winter. The ladies played their scary competition on Tuesday. It was a 9 hole shotgun start - no results to report as yet but they may be in next week’s newsletter.

Night golf...spaces remaining! There are still several spaces available on Friday for our annual ‘Night golf' which is always good fun. It's played with glow in the dark golf balls and lights on the fairway to help you see you ball. The sign up sheet is available online.

Watch this space... Unfortunately, again due to the weather, the club match against Stoke Rochford on Sunday had to be cancelled. We are now looking at playing the match on Sunday, 17 November at 11.30am. Once this has been confirmed, the sign up sheet will be online, so if you’d like to play keep an eye out online.
|
Starting shortly... As you are aware, our winter Pro Comps will be starting shortly. We would just like to remind everyone that the Nick Hernon Pro's Comp needs to be paid in cash rather than your club card as these competition are not club comps.

A stand-out change Muscle backs are notoriously difficult to amend and improve, but there’s one stand-out change with the new model - that’s a very thin copper layer which was on Mizuno’s historic irons, but not on recent MP models. Fitted as standard with premium components, the MP20 irons come with the popular Dynamic Gold shaft and new Z-Cord Align Grip. Through custom build, you can also choose any upgrade shaft or grip at no extra cost with Mizuno's thinnest topline of recent generations thin looking club that is still easy to hit due to the cleverly weighted sole.

In 2018, only January saw more rainfall in the UK than November. Not the happiest of stats to highlight, but one that shows the inevitability of being caught in a few downpours this month, making a waterproof and spacious bag vital if you want to tackle the unpredictable British weather. |
 | | Titleist Players 4 Plus StaDry Stand Bag | The name of this lightweight bag says all you need to know when it comes to its waterproof ability. Add in seam-sealed zippers to protect your personal belongings and six spacious pockets, and we think you'll be hard-pressed finding a better option.
|
 | | Titleist StaDry Cart Bag | Its big brother equivalent has the same waterproof fabric but in a more spacious cart option. We know plenty of you enjoy using an electric trolley out on the course, and we think this might well be the perfect bag to go with it. |
