Hola, Salut, Guten Tag, Bonjour, Pronto, Merhaba. Yes its Eurovision time and what a load of absolute tosh. I can’t believe how bad talent is around Europe, or in Eurovision’s case, not Europe. How can Australia be in Eurovision, Australia is in Australasia. The clue is in the name ‘Australia’. What is going on? Some of the acts actually reminded me of scenes from the crazy film ‘Hostel’.
I know people have Eurovision Parties and that I like but I think there is something completely messed up with half of the acts. How anyone enjoys listening to the thing is beyond me. It should be axed. I think I have made my views clear, so I will move on.

Big Bad Brooks
Yep Brooks Koptured another Major in emphatic style. The man is a machine and I am most certainly glad he based his physic on mine. An athlete and a refreshing attitude to golf. He says what he thinks and lets his golf do the talking. A guy who doesn’t care what his swing looks like and…
‘HE HAS A BENT LEAD ARM AT IMPACT’
Who would have thought that his swing wouldn’t be perfect? Ladies and Gentleman, you don’t have to have a sexy golf swing, it just needs to be efficient!

Professional’s Day 2019 It’s that time of year again for the biggest and funnest day of the year. Every year we keep on raising the bar and this year we are going to mix it up a bit! The format will change to a shotgun Texas Scramble 4 ball competition. We will have an 8am shotgun and a 1pm shotgun. This has worked so well this year already and the feedback has been great. Our live scoring will be in action yet again, so you can see exactly what you’ve got to do to capture the title. |
We will also have some more new things to keep your pulses racing. So entry this year will be £12 and this will include a ticket to the after party, prizes, the famous on course BBQ and refreshments.
As usual we will have limited sponsored times that will guarantee you and 3 of your friends a time for the day. These will be £80 and will include all of the above plus some extra surprises. There will also be a separate prize for the best sponsors team score.
PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ONLY HAVE A FEW SPONSORED TIMES LEFT!! If you have never played before, then you are in for a blast. With my singing, Stuarts dancing and Welshy’s banjo strumming, EK definitely has got talent, well kind of! So get in contact now.

West Of Scotland Championship Comes To East Kilbride Golf Club It is always an honour to hold a Championship event and I think you'll agree they will find the the course in very good order. Scott and his team have been working very hard to wake the course from its cold weather sleep. Some of you may say, 'Why are we giving up our course on a Sunday?'. It is an honour to host an event such as this and with events like this comes an element of kudos. They don't just hold it anywhere, so to be chosen helps elevate our position as a club, a course, a facility and as a members club. This raises our profile and our stock value as a golf course. Another massive benefit to you the member is that you can actually watch the best golfers in the West of Scotland play golf. Even better than that is the chance to watch them play the course that you play every day. You would learn a massive amount from just coming up and watching them this Sunday. You will not be disappointed!

Be A Good Member I have been brought up in and around golf clubs and absolutely love it. I remember being a child and older members helping me with my golf and encouraging me as I grew into a competitive player. Without them, my journey would not have been as smooth. Every golf club now has an ageing membership and with that comes my situation as a child but in reverse. We have many older members who need our support and help. Some of which have maybe lost their golfing pals over the years, had illness or just struggle with mobility. We also have a number of members battling Alzheimer's and Dementia. All of these people need our support to help them continuing their love of the game and the love of the club. They are also the people who have no doubt aided you as your time at the club. So next time you see someone who is struggling, offer them a hand of friendship and help them continue their love of golf.

Most overlooked club in the bag? |
Thankfully, the penny has dropped when it comes to the importance of getting custom fitted for a new driver or set of irons. Unfortunately, we still see the vast majority of golfers overlook this process when it comes to their fairway woods, but why? |
| How often do you use yours? |
|
“I wouldn’t use it often enough” “It's too expensive” “It's not necessary” Yeah, I guess if you’re not concerned with shooting lower scores and maximising your potential then a custom fitted fairway wood isn’t that important. However, if improving your game is something you want to achieve, then having a full set of custom fitted clubs is vital, especially when it comes to gapping between your driver and irons.

Srixon Z F85 fairway woods One option that we'll definitely get you to try is this beauty from Srixon. It's the only fairway wood in their 2019 range and for good reason, too. A combination of Srixon's Cup Face and Crown Step produce a powerful club that offers consistent distance across the face. So, let’s get you booked in for a custom fitting with a member of the team and harness your potential with the most overlooked club in the bag. |
