Complex news 

Have You Tried The 10th Yet?

So our new catering outlet the 10th is now open for business. Although our seating and patio area is not yet fully complete, we've still been doing a brisk trade we've had lots of you enjoying the new facility. 

Bacon rolls before play seem to be the biggest hit so far.

The exciting news is our seating area arrives next Wednesday and should be open very shortly after that.

Make sure you drop in and check out our brand new cafe. 


Rascal Bay Adventure Golf 

The school holidays may be nearly over, but Rascal Bay remains open 12 months of the year! 

Whether young or old be sure to come and have a go - you'll love it.

No need to book and who knows it may prompt them to get in to golf 


Shop news 

Another week and another happy customer trades in what in this case was a very old set of Plus Oversize and walks away with £200 for them!

For those that haven't already, we're able to continue our guaranteed trade in allowance offer on PING G25 irons for another week. It's proved particularly popular with many of you already taking advantage of this great deal - trading in various old sets and getting £200 back for them.  

This is a great chance to upgrade an old set to a great set of PING irons and maximize the value in your existing set.



For example:
G25 Irons 5-SW £549 , Less £200 P/Ex - You Pay £349

The Ryder Cup 

TeamWith just one month to go until this year's Ryder Cup and the team is now confirmed. European captain Darren Clarke's three Ryder Cup picks are Martin Kaymer, Lee Westwood and Thomas Pieters. I suppose we could have picked Lee Westwood based on his past experience and his performance in the majors this year. 

Could Clarke have done anything but pick Thomas Pieters after he request he play with him in last week's Made in Denmark event where Pieters shot a first round -8 under par and then went on to win the tournament? This came on the back of his 4th place finish at the Rio Olympic games. 

Martin Kaymer's selection however could been seen as the one debatable one, but if you recall he did hole the winning putt in 2012 and has valuable experience. 

So a mix of youth and experience seems to be the case here with 6 (six) rookies on the European side. Let's hope we can look forward to some more great golf just as we saw at Medinah Country Club in 2012 when it was last in America. 


Thought of the week 

Developing your match play mentality 

In the lead up to this year's Ryder Cup we thought we'd share three top tips to help you become a better match play golfer. Some of you hardened match play stalwarts probably have a few tricks up your sleeve. Nonetheless, here's our top three: 

Positive Body Language1. Control your body language 

Reacting badly to a poor shot will fill your opponent with confidence. You need to give the impression that you're in control, so take time between shots to collect yourself and focus on emitting positive body language. 

2. Expect to hole out 

You should expect to hole out - always. If you're expecting gimmes, this is something a canny opponent will pick up on. A positive attitude to holing out is the way forward. 

3. Consider the situation 

There's no point in playing the safe option if your opponent has stuck one in close. Likewise, if they've found water with their approach, for example, why go on the attack? Play for the middle of the green and a safe two-putt will normally do the job. 

These tips may sound simple, but in the heat of battle it's easy to forget what match play is all about.
