Hello golfers,

Thought of the week 

Amateurs or pros? 

Welcome to this week's newsletter. By the time you read this a few medals will have been handed out already in Rio - but who's going to take home Olympic gold in the golf?

The build-up to Rio - in terms of the golf - was dominated by many of the game's biggest stars dropping out, and these players have all received a lot of criticism for doing so.

Was the Zika virus a convenient excuse? Can today's elite stars be forgiven for skipping the Games because of their hectic schedules? Where does an Olympic gold medal stack up against a Green Jacket or Claret Jug?

Whatever your opinion, it has raised the question as to whether amateur golfers should have been targeted to represent the sport in Rio, rather than professionals.

We'd be interested to know your opinion, so pop to our homepage and register your vote.

It's a discussion that will rumble on. In the meantime, let's see how those who are playing get on. When the medal ceremony does take place, we wonder whether any of those who did decide to withdraw will regret their decision. Just a thought…


TrackMan 

Yardage Gains using Trackman 

What will give me more yardages, how and why do the pro's hit it so far, why does my playing partner hit much further than I do?

We can track several factors on our Trackman software that combined equate to serious yardage gains: 

Trackman1. Centred strike 
2. Spin rate 
3. Club head speed 
4. Launch angle 
5. Attack angle

Book yourself in for a Trackman session and we can see which of these you need help with correcting to increase those yards out on the course.

Video of the week

There's always going to be an element of luck with any hole-in-one, but this is something else! Sadly for Thomas Bjørn, it won't go down as a competitive ace.. Still… worth a watch.

 
Luckiest ever hole-in-one?
