Exhilarating play, humid conditions, and much-needed comradery, a weekend at Royal Oaks Golf Club had it all. 160 of New Brunswick’s most elite competitive golfers gathered at the Rees Jones course to prove their worth in the race for their respective provincial titles.

For Immediate Release: Royal Oaks Golf Club plays host to the 2020 NB Men’s Amateur, Mid-Master, and NB Junior Boys Championships. 160 of New Brunswick’s most elite competitive players took to the field this weekend in Moncton to take on the championship venue and battle for their respective 2020 Championship Titles. Play for Saturday’s second-round began at 6:30 AM with participants in the NB Junior Boys Championship teeing off in the first wave. The heat and humidity present during round one did not stray far as early morning players were met with similar conditions to Friday. 2018 NB Men’s Amateur & Mid-Amateur Champion, Alex Palmer of The Riverside Country Club picked up where he left off from Friday’s opening round. A first-round 5-Under Par 67 was just the start as Palmer backed up his firey play with a stellar 7-Under Par 65 round on Saturday. 3 birdies and 3 eagles allowed The Riverside member to manage the risk and rewarded opportunities on the course and play the Par-5’s at unbelievable 7-Under Par. Following two groups behind Palmer was clubmate and fellow competitor Darren Roach who unknowingly was in a head to head competition with Palmer for the low round of the day and a potential course record at Royal Oaks. Roach also carded a 7-Under Par 65 during Saturday’s second round in Moncton. 6 birdies and two eagles pushed Roach into contention on Sunday after finishing 2-Under Par on his opening round. 2019 Champion, Michel Landry of the Fredericton Golf Club heads into the final round in third place after a pair of 2-Under Par 70’s in his opening two rounds. Landry sits 8 strokes back of Palmer in the lead and 5 behind Roach as players on top of the leaderboard look to battle for the championship on Sunday. The Riverside Country Club’s Greg Steele recorded an ACE on Royal Oaks’ Par-3 8th hole. Greg used a PW from 140 yards to record his hole in one. Congratulations Greg! Country Meadows’ Stu Musgrave leads the 2020 NB Men’s Mid-Master Championships. Usually partnered with the NB Senior Men’s Provincial Championships, the 2020 Mid-Master is taking place alongside the Men’s Amateur and Junior Boys at Royal Oaks. A hot 3-Under Par start by Musgrave on the front nine slowly cooled off as temperatures increased, an even-par 36 back nine secured a 3-Under 69 finish, and puts Musgrave in the pole position for Sunday’s final round. Remi Comeau of Fox Creek had difficulty matching his opening round of 69, Saturday’s conditions saw Comeau record a 3-Over Par 75 in his second round. Musgrave holds a one-stroke lead over Comeau as the two prepare to leave it all to play for during Sunday’s round. Dave Bolster of Grand Falls sits in third place in the Mid-Master Championships after a 1-Over Par 73 and 2-Over Par 74. Daniel Kirby of JH Sports continued his fine run of play from Friday with a second-round 1-Under Par 71 performance. The young Woodstock native carded an impressive 5 birdies in his round on Saturday however some bogey difficulties on the back nine restricted Kirby to a still impressive 1-Under Par round. Kirby leads the Under-19 Boys Division over the Fox Creek duo of Felix Boucher and Patrick Cormier. Boucher’s second-round 1-Over Par 73 keeps him close in the title race for the Under-19 Division and even closer to clubmate Patrick Cormier who’s 76, 4-Over Par round on Saturday sees the pair both tied for second place, seven strokes behind Kirby. In the Junior Boys, Under-17 Division Fox Creek’s Julien Babineau leads the division after recording a second-round 2-Over Par 74. Babineau who shaved three strokes off of his opening round 5-Over Par 77 will need to continue his form heading into Sunday’s final round. Knocking on Julien’s door for the Under-17 Title is Westfield’s Jack Bailey, a first-round 4-Over Par 76 combined with his Saturday 8-Over Par 80 sees Bailey 5 shots back off of Babineau as the two Juniors look to leave it all out on the course during the Sunday’s round in the race for the Under-17 Provincial Championship. Rounding out the top-3 in the Under-17 Division is Moncton’s Ethan McFadden. A tournament score of 163, 19-Over Par has McFadden 12 strokes off of the lead and 7 back of Bailey. The NB Under-15 Junior Boys Division sees a family connection on top of the leaderboard as Miguel Babineau of Fox Creek holds the lead heading into the third and final round. Babineau’s consistent play of 12-Over Par 84 and 11-Over Par 83 positions the young junior nicely as Babineau will look to close out his lead on Sunday. Petitcodiac’s Chase Burgess and Westfield’s Morgan Costain are both tied for second in the Under-15 category. A narrow two-stroke lead could set up for an interesting final round on Sunday as the three players will look to utilize Rees Jones’ challenging yet rewarding design to their advantage.

Golf Canada reports that there were 17 per cent more scores registered with the national sport body this June compared to the same month last year. A total of 1,483,506 rounds were submitted to Golf Canada’s handicap calculator last month compared to 1,271,782 in June 2019. “It was a pretty big jump from last year, comparing 2019 numbers to this year,” said Adam Helmer, senior director of golf services for Golf Canada, on Wednesday. “We were expecting that as golf has emerged as one of the safest activities, where people can be physically distant and we’ve reduced touchpoints.”

double-tap if you teed it up last week

A post shared by Golf Canada (@thegolfcanada) on Jul 6, 2020 at 9:56am PDT

The surge in June ended a streak of three months when recreational rounds played in Canada dropped precipitously due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As restrictions were lifted across the country in May, the number of scores registered increased. In May, 165,026 rounds were registered between the 1st and the 15th but 265,480 scores were submitted in the final two weeks of that month. The May 1-15 numbers are a nearly 40 per cent drop from the same period in 2019 (211,809) but the May 16-30 numbers are just five per cent lower than last year (269,266). Helmer said he expects the number of rounds submitted to Golf Canada to continue to climb through July and into August.

“We’ve heard anecdotally that a lot of newcomers have joined the sport, especially now that school is done we’re going to see an increase in juniors too. We think the trend is going to continue,” said Helmer. “Golf has seen a pretty big lift and it’s emerged as the sport of the summer.”

The upward trend comes even as Golf Canada had to cancel all of its amateur and professional championships due to travel restrictions put in place to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus. A shift in how scores are registered has also been seen, with most recreational players entering their scores online instead of in the course’s clubhouse or pro shop, which have largely been closed this summer because of physical distancing protocols. Golf Canada plans to launch an updated version of its scoring app later this month, helping to keep players physically distant and improve their game.]]>

It’s not about your ability, says Rick Young. It’s about your level of commitment. “It makes zero sense to buy golf clubs without getting fitted,” says Young, SCOREGolf’s longtime equipment expert. He warns against purchasing new clubs off the rack as well as new or used clubs online. His point is repeated by every expert in the field. Many compare buying a standard set of clubs to purchasing apparel. While that might be a touch trite, it is undeniably accurate. The average Canadian man is 5’8” tall and weighs 182 pounds. The average woman is just over 5’3” and about 153 pounds. Chances are that doesn’t describe you so the odds that the clothing that fits those “average” Canadians wouldn’t fit you either. So why are you playing their golf clubs? Essentially, that is what you are doing when you buy a standard set off the rack. I’m 6’2” and weigh 220. Not average, by any means. So my clubs are a little longer than standard, the lie is a touch upright and the grips are slightly larger. As I get older, I’ve switched to regular shafts in my irons from the stiff version I played for years. There’s no chance my 5’4” wife (about the national average) was fitted for the same clubs as our 6’1” daughter. Thank goodness she got her looks from her mom and her height from me and not the other way around. Like our dimensions and ages, our Handicap Indexes vary but we all saw getting fitted for clubs as an investment in our enjoyment of the game, not just an expense. Playing the wrong clubs can be discouraging, infuriating, and can dissuade you from playing more golf. “Do you want to get better? Then get fitted, even if you’re terrible,” says Tony Covey, managing editor of My Golf Spy, an independent online reviewer and evaluator of all things golf. “You don’t have to spend a lot of money right out of the gate. As you improve and your scores go down, you can get re-fitted and either get your clubs adjusted or invest in a new set and sell the old ones or trade them in.” Covey also cautions against some of the misconceptions that may influence your equipment choice. “Don’t get sucked in by brand bias and some of the other mythology that’s out there. Do some research and then find a reputable expert and listen to them.” Ian Fraser is the founder and CEO of TxG (Tour Experience Golf) with locations in Toronto and, soon, Mississauga, Ont. With a background in club fitting, he worked with beginners as well as superstars like Colin Montgomerie, Gary Woodland and Eduardo Molinari before coming to Canada to start Modern Golf, a leading-edge club-fitting company. In 2015, he left Modern Golf to found TxG. [video_embed id="95831"][/video_embed] As a nod to his expertise, GOLF Magazine named TxG No. 2 on their 2020 list of the top club fitters in North America. Fraser points out that the proliferation of golf club technology has made getting properly fitted more essential than ever. There are more than 30,000 potential combinations to ensure the client gets the correct “prescription,” as he calls it, for 14 optimized clubs to maximize their enjoyment and lower their scores. A full-bag (driver through putter) fitting session takes 4 ½ hours. Don’t panic. Much of that time is spent discussing, analyzing and advising. It’s not a ball-beating marathon. Not surprisingly, that philosophy is echoed at Fraser’s former hangout, Modern Golf, which has locations in Mississauga and Vaughan in Ontario, two in Calgary and one in Vancouver. At Modern Golf, TxG and other sophisticated fitting facilities, the technology, such as ForeSight and other high-tech aids, is on par with the expertise of the humans doing the hands-on fitting. For example, Modern Golf has a “coach/build” concept that places a fitter and a coach in the fitting bay with you. That combination doesn’t come cheap but, remember, this is an investment. At Modern Golf, the $400 full-bag fitting fee is waived if you purchase a new set of clubs. The fee is also waived for any of their other fitting options ranging from single clubs like the driver or putter to irons and wedges.

Once you’ve committed to a fitting, go all the way, Young recommends. “One thing people don’t realize is that 42 per cent of your shots are on the green but people will walk into a golf store, try two or three putters and when they make a couple of putts, they fork over two or three hundred dollars for a putter that most likely is wrong for them. Do you need a mallet or blade, toe-balanced or face-balanced, what loft, what length, what grip, what kind of putting stroke do you have … these are all questions you need expert advice on. “And how about your wedges? Do you have the right gapping between your wedges? Are the lofts right for you? How about the bounce?” Young believes not getting fitted can discourage new golfers who want to enjoy the game but have the wrong equipment. If, for example, the lie angle on those used irons you bought for a song is too upright, you’ll likely be hitting pull hooks. Or if the lie is OK but the shaft is too stiff, get used to hitting a bunch of low-right screamers.

“The worst mistake you can make, at any level, is buying clubs that work against you,” says Matthew Sim, Modern Golf’s Director of Operations.

If getting to some of the facilities mentioned here is inconvenient, there are lots of other options. If you’re really out in the boondocks, major manufacturers have online fitting apps for everything from clubs to balls. Fittings are easy to arrange with many PGA of Canada members across the country offering fitting services. If you decide to purchase new clubs, the fitting fee is waived in most cases. Alternatively, many courses have “demo days” during the golf season where one or more of the major club manufacturers set up shop on the range. “This is one of the best ways for novice golfers to get a baseline for fitting if they’re unsure of what they want for free,” says Young. Just as there is a fitting option suitable for every budget, so too is there one for the clubs themselves, even at places like TxG. “If the client says, for example, that their budget is $900, then we give them the very best value we can for that budget,” says Fraser. “We treat every client the same whether they’re a pro or a beginner. It’s in our best interest to make sure they not only get better but have more fun.”]]>
