With Christmas just a couple of weeks away the pro shop is still quiet which is bad news for you if you were hoping your family might come down to select a great Xmas present for you - so keep dropping the hints and let them know where we are!!

Do you own a West Hill team shirt or jumper? 
Do you have a shirt with the new exclusive West Hill members logo? 
Would you like a gift voucher for some coaching? 
Would you like a gift voucher for a custom fitting towards a new club? 
You know where we are.

In my role as Chairman of The Surrey PGA I organise The Surrey PGA Three W's Pro/Am and Annual Dinner which is on Monday 23 February. It would be fantastic if you could support this great event. It is £100 per person which includes a pro/am at Worplesdon or Woking or West Hill ( your choice of venue) all running concurrently with a 12.00pm shotgun start followed by an evening Surrey PGA Awards Dinner at Epsom Downs Racecourse including a comedian guest speaker. I will also organise a coach to take everyone to/from Epsom.

You can enter individually and I can pair you up with other members or as a team of three and you can choose your own professional or I will supply one for you. It would be great to see as many West Hill members as possible at this event. Click here to join me. 

The swing studio and custom fitting studio are now being fitted internally. I have had the walls insulated and panelled and am now waiting for delivery of carpets, mats, netting, lighting, a projector, a plasma screen, seating and internal shop fittings. All we need is electricity and we will be able to put it all together and start to coach and custom fit in the comfort of an inside high tech studio until the range is ready to open.

This week I arranged a member's trip to Royal St George's Golf Club for 31 members. Several members went a day early to play Royal Cinque Ports and stayed overnight in Sandwich and were looking a little jaded by the end of day 2!!! It was great to see new members Chris Barber, Andrew Straszewski, Stuart Kerr, Keith Stanley and Justin Jones joining us for a great day out. Other members participating were Mark Randall, Alan Arscott, Alex Forbes, Mike Graves, Kevin Barkham and his son Sam, Julien Payne, Richard Wheatley, Derek Plumstead, Neil Blick, Peter David, Warwick Taylor, Richard Bolton, Rob Guilfoyle, Andrew Smith, Gerry Kennedy, Jimmy Sweetzer, Peter Oakes, Nick Cobb, Tim Osborn, Mark Turner, Chris Salmon, Rowan Gillespie, Gary Clarence and John Fletcher who is an honorary Father & Son member and also a member at RSG.

We played from the member's medal tees and on a cold day with a two club wind Richard Wheatley was the winner with 34 points, with Peter Oakes second with 32pts and Julien Payne third with 30pts. In the fourball better ball Tim Osborn and Kevin Barkham won with 40 points with Keith Stanley and Warwick Taylor second with 39. The greens were truly magnificent and, with a fantastic 3 course lunch to boot, I will be booking next year for Tuesday 1 December.

This Sunday is the second Scratch Roll Up. Meet Greg in the pro shop at 11.30am for an 11.50am start at the 10th tee. Would anyone like to join me for a game this Sunday at 8.58 from the 10th tee - once space left available- click here.
