britgolf opened it’s doors exactly 5 years ago March 23rd. Customers and friends came to our party on Tuesday to help us celebrate.  This is the first business we have owned and it’s not been easy but we are still here! We thank all of our customers for their support!

Our party was catered by Vasco Entertainment. This excellent company is run by our daughter and her boyfriend. They can help you out with food, staff, a DJ and bounce houses for the kids. www.vascoentertainment.com

We have had some very successful demo days this month and this week had the Bridgestone Ball Fitting Challenge. This is the first time we have had Bridgestone here and they were a big hit with our customers. The 2 technicians arrived with $65,000 of computer equipment and sensors! Customers were invited to hit the ball they usually play and then hit the Bridgestone ball suggested by the technicians. Depending whether customers wanted more distance or better feel around the greens (don’t we all want both!) they were given some of the recommended ball to take away and try. One customer came back the following day to say he just shot the best round of his life. Needless to say he stocked up on his new ball!

Andy is leaving me in charge once again! This time he is off to Atlanta at the invitation of Mizuno. He will tour the factory and play at Bears Best and Country Club of the South. He has been invited to give feedback from the perspective of an independent store owner! It’s nice to know someone cares!

Usually when I get left in charge it’s because Andy is off on one of our escorted golf vacations. We currently have just 2 places left for Scotland in June. Call the store for details. 512 263 3343
