    Winter Off Season Improvement Options

    Hi Liverpoolphil, Thanks for that - I guess I'm looking for peoples experiences if a bag 'MOT' at this time of year is worth it or not, or to leave it until after teh season has started next year (lessons are a given at some point before the next season starts in earnest). Joust

    custom fitting - midlands (ish) area

    If you can get to Stone (not far off J15 M6) the driving range there carries quite a comprehensive range (Taylormade, Mizuno, Ckleveland, Callaway, Titleist, Ping), and has full flightscope fitting, in a fairly comprehensive fitting bay. Approx £50 with driver fitting, and is free if you order...
