Welcome to another newsletter from JS Golf.
Congratulations to Jason Day who won his first career major title at the PGA Championships at Whistling Straights. I'm sure we all agree it's well-deserved with so many near misses in the past.
Can you help?
Here in the JS Pro Shop at Verulam GC, we are always looking to provide you with a range of products that gives you great quality as well as value for money. We are hugely keen to stock exactly the products you want, so I have created a short survey to help shape our product choices for next year. Your feedback will be invaluable, and hopefully will help us provide an even better service next year.
And as a little incentive/thank you for your time, we will give one random entrant a dozen Titleist NXT Tour balls FREE of charge.

Many thanks in advance for your time!
Toppo's ACE, worth the investment!! 
Last week saw PGA Assistant Professional Stephen Topping get his second hole in one of his career at the signature 17th hole at the home of the Ryder Cup! He used his Cleveland RTX 588 52 degree wedge to pitch it at the back of the green and fizz it back 10ft into the hole.
These wedges are on sale here in the shop and Steve quotes "I have never seen a wedge like it". Make sure you give him a pat on the back next time you see him!

Samuel Ryder Golf Pink Ladies Academy Member Fiona Pulzer has really been impressing coach Laurence Allen with her continued dedication and commitment over the recent summer holidays. With the group sessions having a 6 week break, it has allowed the ladies to have some dedicated 1 to 1 tuition to hone in their golf games.
Fiona is now blitzing her 7 iron 100 yards and fairway wood over 150 yards. In the space of 2 months this is a great achievement!!
Please encourage our new golfers when you see them on our practice facilities.
Well done Fiona!

Here at Verulam Pro Shop we pride ourselves on offering the most comprehensive custom fitting service using the latest in launch monitor technology. This week's custom fitting success was Adam Scott. Adam approached us about upgrading his current Callaway driver and three wood.
We headed for the range armed with our detailed range of fitting equipment along with our GC2 launch monitor. Having tried various heads and shafts we came up with the combination of the ever popular PING G30 driver and 3 wood with the TFC stiff flex.
Not only did Adam gain more consistency but he added an extra 27 yards of carry distance by increasing launch angle and reducing backspin. He loved the driver so much he purchased the matching 3 wood.
