Well Done John!
Congratulations to John Findlater on passing his PGA test of playing ability; this is his first step in entering his chosen Profession with the PGA.
The next stage is to enrol with the PGA and commence a 3 year training course.
I am delighted for John who works hard at his game and is already very knowledgeable in all aspects of the game, and I know he will progress and become a first class Professional.
Junior Section Thriving at Ashton!
It is always great to see the younger generation getting involved in the game, and at Ashton we have a great junior section. Junior competitions are held regularly throughout the summer holidays and the juniors have been shooting some great scores!
Andrew Bagot has lowered his handicap from 17 to 11 allowing him to play in the men's competitions. Andrew works hard on his golf and has regular lessons with myself in The Swing Studio.
To enquire about junior coaching, please contact me here.
Tom Ratcliffe has lowered his handicap from 26 to 19 this year. His best score so far is an 86 gross off yellow tees, an amazing score for an eleven year old! Tom never stops practicing and has his lessons with Richard in the junior group sessions on a Sunday morning.
Richard holds junior group sessions on Saturday and Sunday mornings, and they are £25 for a group of 4 lessons. To enquire about Richard's coaching sessions please click here. The sessions are suitable for complete beginners to top players like Tom.
Matthew Holland has had a nett 57 and a nett 61 this year, lowering his handicap by ten shots.
Mike Rimmer and Adam Leivesley have also lowered their handicaps to 12 and 11 allowing them to play in the men's competitions.
Not only these players, but all of the juniors have been playing great golf while at the same time enjoying time spent with friends.

Big Bertha V-Series Now In Store!
The new range of Callaway woods are in store and look fantastic! They are a new design made to be as lightweight and aerodynamic as possible for golfers who struggle with distance off the tee and from the fairway. The driver and fairway heads are all in black and look like a bigger version of one of the original Big Bertha woods, which I'm sure will go down well.
The 9 degree head comes fitted with a Fujikura Speeder 56 gram shaft which is used by many players on tour. Whereas the 10.5 and 13.5 degree models come fitted with a brand new Bassara 42 gram shaft for maximum distance.
If you would like to come in and try the new range and add distance on either your driver or fairway woods then please contact me here to book a trial session.

Custom Fitting Taking Ashton By Storm
We are constantly taking appointments from the members and many visitors for custom fitting sessions in The Swing Studio, which is great to see. It is vital for golfers to understand the importance of custom fitting, and at Ashton we have a great facility to do so.
Every golfer is looking to improve, whether you want:
To increase your driving distance
To stop slicing your 3 wood off the deck!
To hit that high flying 200 yard shot into a green
To hit more greens consistently giving more birdie chances
To improve distance control with your wedges
To improve bunker play
Or even to feel more confident over a nervy 6-foot putt on the last
Custom fitting will help you to achieve all of these or whatever else you are looking to improve in your golf game. It may just be you feel your clubs are outdated and need a new model you still need to be custom fit.
We offer FREE FITTING on everything from driver to putter with no obligation to buy, but you will see how much your new clubs will improve your game.
