Masters review

Reed more about it

There's nothing quite like turning on the TV at the beginning of April to watch the very best golfers tackle one of the hardest courses in the world. With pristine fairways, treacherous greens and flowers in full bloom, Augusta National looked nothing short of a golfing paradise once again over the weekend.

The 2018 Masters tournament had it all. From Tom Watson's highlight reel Par-3 Contest triumph and Finau's ankle popping hole-in-one celebration on Wednesday, to Garcia's four shots into the water on the 15th the first day proper, to Jordan Spieth's near course record and Patrick Reed's maiden Major victory on Sunday.

Each day had its own story but the week belonged to the young American who collected his first Green Jacket thanks to belittling Augusta's par-5s over the first three days (-13 for 12 holes) and a series of clutch putts on Sunday afternoon, none more so than on his final two holes to win by one from Rickie Fowler.

Get with the times

If you're not using a Lithium battery with your electric trolley then why not? They charge quicker, last longer and work out far cheaper in the long run than standard Lead Acid alternatives. Right now we're offering you £25 when you trade-in your old battery against a new Lithium one - a fantastic opportunity to save yourself some money.

No penalty

Golf can be a frustrating game at the best of times, but incurring a penalty stroke when you’ve accidentally done something wrong seems very unfair, especially when that one stroke could be the difference between getting a handicap cut or not.

Current Rules
Under the current Rules of Golf, if you accidentally nudge your ball while addressing it you incur a one-stroke penalty and must replace it (18-2). The only exception relates to if it is accidentally moved in the process of marking it. In this case, it must be replaced and there is no penalty (20-1).

New Rules from 2019
The new proposed rule (13.1c) states there will no longer be a penalty for accidentally causing your ball to move on the green and you must replace it on its original spot.

Let us make it simple for you

We pride ourselves on being the only place you need to go for your golfing needs, which is especially true for golf balls. But we also realise that because we offer a wide range, it can be hard to know which model is right for your game.

Unparalleled feel

The Callaway Chrome Soft is now even longer thanks to its new, larger Graphene Dual Soft Fast Core that boosts ball speeds and reduces unwanted long game spin. To generate short game control, you also get a softer urethane cover that boosts spin on chip shots and offers unparalleled feel.

Powerful performance

Do you prefer a firmer feel or have a faster swing speed? You’re probably an ideal candidate for the Callaway Chrome Soft X, as its increased firmness helps convert more driver head speed to ball speed compared to the standard Chrome Soft, which gives you more distance and a stronger ball flight.
