Update on The Quarry Men's Invitational

The Quarry To Hold It's 1st Ever Men's Invitational

The Quarry Golf Club in Ennismore is set to host it's first ever Men's Invitational. The inaugural event will take place on July 21st and 22nd 2012. 

Traditionally the Peterborough Golf and Country Club held it's Men's Invitational on this weekend but last year decided to move it's event to September.

This is also the same weekend as The British Open so no doubt the big screen t.v.'s inside The Quarry clubhouse will be locked on coverage from overseas all weekend long.

 A practice round is included in the $175 entry fee as is a welcoming gift. There will be flight gross and net prizes. 

Also part of the entry fee will be a prime rib and pasta buffet dinner on the Saturday night. 

Organizers are very excited about The Quarry shootout on the Saturday afternoon where players will get 3 balls and attempt to hit a target in the middle of the Quarry. 

Entry deadline is July 13th.

Spring Tune Up For Your Clubs

                                                       

By Tony Porter
 Are you and your golf game ready to kick off the new golf season? It’s just about here you know, so let me give you a primer on a few things you’ll need to think about.

Before bringing your clubs out for a new season, give them a good once over to check for issues that could affect your game.

Club Heads

Any scratches, nicks, dents, rust or worn spots ?  Examine the face of your woods for cracks –any imperfections here will lead to imperfect shots on the course. 

Rattling? Caused by loose weights in the shaft or epoxy that has broken loose, this can be repaired quickly and inexpensively. While it may not affect the playability of your club – it can be distracting when you swing.

Grip Check

Check your grips for wear and tear. Any smooth, shiny or worn spots? Any cracking?  It’s time for a grip replacement. Regular players should replace their grips once a year. Re- gripping can make a big difference in the level of enjoyment you experience in your game.   

Shafts

Dents or rust on the steel shafts? Avoid possible breakage, and consider having the shaft replaced.

If you play graphite shafts, look for fraying or peeling where the shaft enters the club head. Is there excessive wear at any point on the shaft, particularly where the shaft rests against the bag when you carry it? Depending on the severity, you may need to replace it.

Specs

Are your loft and lie angles correct?  A minor change in the lie angle of any club can greatly affect the accuracy of your shot. Many experts recommend that you have yours club specs checked twice a year. This is definitely worth the effort and a small expense when done by a qualified professional. You will be amazed at the ease for more consistent shots by these small adjustments.

Be a wise golfer and check your equipment regularly. Knowing that your equipment is in good shape will put you a step ahead of your competition when you step on the first tee this season. The best players in the game are constantly upgrading the performance of their equipment. Doing so on a regular basis will help you do just the same.
