Winter Coaching with Christian Starts this October!

With the Winter Season fast approaching I am organising coaching sessions on a Tuesday evening through the winter. We have found winter coaching sessions a huge success and it allows you to work on your swing through the winter ready for the following season!

The Coaching Sessions are 4 x 1 Hour sessions at only £30.00 per person, with a max of 6 in a group and will run in a 4 session block every 2 weeks.

During the 4 sessions we will cover: Full Swing, Half Swing and Short Game elements.

The longest hole in history

We all love a challenge; beating a personal best or doing something outside of our comfort zone. That feeling of having achieved something beyond what we normally would.

In an attempt to raise $100,000 for children’s charities, one man and his caddie (subsequently joined by an adopted dog on their journey) set out to complete the longest hole in history; a par 14,000 carved out of difficult Mongolian terrain, culminating at the 18th green of Mt. Bogd Golf Club.

It took them 82 days to trek the 2011km hole, facing rocky ground, swamps, icy water and desert in the process – click on the link below to view their video. With only 134 balls lost – with one ball lasting 65km! – the man holed a nervy seven-footer to complete the longest hole in history in 20,093 shots, just the mere 6,093 over par. A really special achievement for some fantastic charities.

Watch their journey here.
