Mark Wood Golf Academy

November 2009


Dear golfer


Well as winter is fast approaching what an opportunity to work hard on all aspects of your game ready for the Spring/Summer 2010. As I now have all year round facilities including the indoor swing and putting suite, which features a multi camera, swing analysis system (www.cswing.com) and the Tomi putt lab (www.tomi.com) now could not be a better time to fine tune.


Vouchers for golf lessons will make an ideal Christmas present, vouchers can be purchased in the pro shop or by contacting me direct on 07796 271661 or email markwood.golf@virgin.net


We still have some spaces left on our Junior Christmas camps, which are running on the following weeks. The Cost for the week is £95.00 per child. For more details please check the junior camp link on the website.

It has been a great year for me this year as my son Zachary celebrated his 1st birthday back in October, parenthood really does change your life – for the better. Also some of my students have done remarkably well this year with various tournament wins and also handicap reductions.


Bradley Cox started the year off a 5 handicap and he is now down to 2.
George Benner started the year off a 6 handicap and he is now down to 3.
Dom Driver started the year off a 13 handicap and he is now down to 6.
Rosie Hockey started the year off an 8 handicap and she is now down to 5 and won the Sussex Veterans championship and is now playing for Sussex.
Ella Brooks has been selected and is also playing for Sussex.
Laird Shephard who is rapidly improving all the time finished runner up in the Sussex under 12’s Championship.
Congratulations to everyone that I have helped with their golf this year it has been a pleasure and well to Harry Shearing from Tenterden golf club and Rosie Hockey for winning the Club Championship this year. 


One final note I am trying to organise a golf trip to Portugal in late February early March so if you would like further details please contact me directly either by email or 07796 271661.


Good Golfing
