THE ELS CLUB DESARU COAST OCEAN COURSE The Ocean course, which adjoins the shoreline, as its name would suggest, is one of the headline acts. The three nine hole loops; The Lakes, The Coast and The Ridge, make up the distinct course layout and with the commitment of global leaders in management, Troon Golf, the experience is second to none. On arrival, the presence of a mighty clubhouse fills the skyline. With its open plan design, the 45,000 sq foot clubhouse sits
imperiously overlooking the golf course and academy, offering guests plenty of comfortable corners to relax, soak up the atmosphere and enjoy the service from the two casual dining restaurants. www.elsclubmalaysia.com/the-course/desarucoast-the-ocean/

THE ELS CLUB DESARU COAST VALLEY COURSE
The Valley Course is the product of a world’s first collaboration between Ernie Els and his close friend and fellow Major Champion and World Golf Hall of Famer, Vijay Singh. The course is nothing short of epic. The immediate impact of the undulating landscape and smaering of uniquely placed white sandy bunkers is unforgeable. The condition and quality is a cut above. Also managed by Troon Golf, the world’s leading golf management group, every detail is meticulously
catered to. Precision is most certainly at a premium on the course. There are some high tariff shots, but the seing and brilliance of the design leaves you thirsty for more. The range of teeing options are aptly placed, giving all standards of golfer fair options to get the most out of their game. www.elsclubmalaysia.com/the-course/desarucoast-the-valley/

Designed by Tom Doak and opened in 2001, Pacific Dunes is remarkably different in character and shot making requirements than our other courses. Pacific Dunes doesn't feel like it was built as much as it was discovered. Rippling fairways remain just as they were found and natural bunkers line the landscape as they have for centuries. The course emerges from shore pines to spectacular 60-foot
sand dunes. When the wind blows, precise approach shots are a necessity. Pacific Dunes is short enough to give you hope, but rugged enough to test every facet of your game. www.bandondunesgolf.com/golf/golfcourses/pacific-dunes

One of the most respected and revered courses in the world begins with one of the greatest opening stretches in golf: five spectacular sand-splashed holes that cruise up and down a sea of dunes while showcasing sublime oceanfront scenery and shots you’ve surely never seen. But the defining characteristic of Spyglass Hill is how starkly the first five holes juxtapose the rest of the round. incredible ocean views give way to the understated natural beauty of the Del Monte Forest, as the final 13 holes relentlessly examine your game with a litany of bunkers, ponds and uphill tests. Pine Valley-by-the-Sea meets Augusta national, as Sports illustrated eloquently described it. www.pebblebeach.com/golf/spyglass-hill-golfcourse/

DEL MONTE GOLF COURSE
Del Monte is a landmark course that has played an instrumental role in popularizing golf out West since its inception in 1897. The birthplace of the California State Amateur and the oldest course in continuous operation west of the Mississippi retains much of that classic charm today, challenging the game’s best golfers with its small, sloping, old-school greens. The venerable layout brings out of bounds into play on more than half its holes, and puts a premium on placing the ball below the hole with well-bunkered greens that are oen pitched strongly from back-to-front. www.pebblebeach.com/golf/del-monte-golfcourse/

Druh Belts & Buckles Druh Belts & Buckles is the brainchild of Touring Professional Simon Hurd. The Englishman, known as Hurdy on the European and Asian Tours, was known for the distinctive and colourful pork pie hats he donned on the golf course, but is now beer recognised for his distinguished belt range. “Even as a golf pro, I have always taken an interest in fashion both on and off the golf course, so it seemed a natural progression for me to go into the fashion world,” says Hurdy, a smart dresser with well-tailored aire. “In fact I have been dressed by William Hunt of Savile Row, London, in the past and I soon realised that looking smart means playing smart.”
Druh’s designs in classic black and browns and funky pastels and metallics have fast become the professionals’ style secret, with the likes of Lee Westwood, John Daly, Robert Karlsson, Paul McGinley and Thongchai Jaidee joining 100s of European and Asian Tour players, as well as LPGA and LET players, in choosing Druh belts. "Golf gear has always been perceived as rather staid and dull so I wanted to have a bit of fun designing belts and buckles that were a lile bit funky, yet stylish, and certainly they have been an instant hit with pro golfers all over the world. And now it is the chance for all those amateurs out there to smarten up their golf look with one of my Druh belts!”
LUXURY GOLF ACCESSORIES
Each belt is handmade using the finest in sustainable and natural materials. Leather and snakeskin straps are matched to Druh’s unique range of interchangeable buckles, which gives Druh customers the opportunity to create their own customised belt to look smart on or off the golf course.

it took 50 teams of horses and 200 men working together for a year in order to clear the land of boulders and debris to prepare it for what would become one of Canada's premiere golf courses. Since the opening of the mountain golf course in 1925, this jewel set deep in the heart of the Canadian Rockies has been the seing of unforgeable memories for all of those who come to play. Stanley Thompson, Canada's master golf course architect, displayed some of the finest work of his career with this design. The 18-hole
layout offers elevated tee boxes, dramatic bunkering and holes aligned with distant mountain vistas. He built wide fairways that carve through thick forest, and maintained a partnership with the environment's natural contours, blending beautiful landscapes with challenging terrain. As a result, few golf courses in the world can match the rugged majesty of this national treasure. www.fairmont.com/jasper/golf/

Rolex and Golf On the windswept eastern coast of Scotland, St Andrews, golf’s motherland, aracts golfers from around the world on a veritable pilgrimage. For more than half a millennium, this small university town, its people and the game of golf have been inextricably bound by history. SKY-DWELLER THE OYSTER PERPETUAL For those who travel the world... The first Rolex with two time zones and an innovative annual calendar that marks the passage of the months. SIMPLICITY IS THE ULTIMATE SOPHISTICATION A distinctive technological masterpiece protected by 14 patents, the Oyster Perpetual Sky-Dweller provides the information global travellers need to keep track of time at a glance. Launched in 2012, the Sky-Dweller is a compelling timepiece of revolutionary design that blends to perfection mechanical sophistication and ease of use. EVEROSE GOLD To preserve the beauty of its pink gold watches, Rolex created and patented an exclusive 18 ct pink gold alloy cast in its own foundry: Everose gold. Introduced in 2005, 18 ct Everose is used on all Rolex Oyster models in pink gold. CHOCOLATE DIAL The dial is the distinctive face of a Rolex watch, the feature most responsible for its identity and readability. Characterised by hour markers fashioned from 18 ct gold to prevent tarnishing, every Rolex dial is designed and manufactured in-house, largely by hand to ensure perfection. A LEATHER STRAP This Sky-Dweller is fied with a luxurious strap that uniquely combines the nobility of leather with the peerless security of a Rolex clasp that makes for secure closure and easy opening.
9001 MOVEMENT The Sky-Dweller is equipped with calibre 9001, a self-winding mechanical movement entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex. Introduced in 2012, it is one of the most complex calibres ever created by Rolex watchmakers. Nonetheless, it is engineered to ensure simplicity of use: a selector wheel on the outside edge of the 9001 ensures the interaction of the movement and the bezel of the watch to set the Sky-Dweller’s functions. Like all Rolex Perpetual movements, the 9001 is a certified Swiss Chronometer, a designation reserved for high-precision watches that have successfully passed the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC) tests. Its architecture, in common with all Oyster watch movements, makes it singularly reliable. DUAL TIME ZONE The two time zones are displayed simultaneously. Local time is indicated by the conventional centre hour, minute and seconds hands. It can be set quickly and easily by means of a mechanism that allows the hour hand to be adjusted independently in one-hour increments both forwards and backwards. Neither the minute and seconds nor the reference time in the second time zone are affected. And, since the watch is not stopped, accuracy is preserved. Reference time in the traveller’s usual place of residence or work is read on a rotating off-centre disc. A fixed inverted red triangle points to the wearer’s chosen reference time. The disc’s 24-hour display allows travellers to clearly distinguish daytime hours from night-time hours in the distant time zone (for example, 10 p.m. versus 10 a.m.). The date change is linked to local time and occurs within a few milliseconds at midnight. So the date displayed in the aperture is always the current date in the wearer’s local time zone.

TaylorMade P750 Tour Proto Irons RESERVED FOR THE EXCEPTIONAL The Tour demands perfection, P750 delivers. P750 Tour Proto irons are reserved for the best ballstrikers—players who prefer a more compact, forged clubhead for precise shotmaking and immediate feedback through impact.
The face and grooves are CNC milled for high precision, as is as the back cavity of the iron. The extra step of milling the cavity ensures that the face thickness, CG position, and weight distributing are maintained to the highest standard demanded by the best players.
P750 raises the standard by providing superior performance and feel in a design that delivers optimum workability. This true forged blade with shallow cavity, made of 1025 carbon steel, is created using a new, multi-step forging process that culminates with a high tonnage strike—three times more forceful than a standard forged press. This process ensures perfect, near-net head shaping that requires minimal hand polishing, resulting in a pure players iron with so feel.
P750 irons feature a thin topline (thinner than the P770) and minimal offset for a blade-like look preferred by our Tour players. Additionally, the P750 irons incorporate a narrower sole and tighter leading edge for improved turf interaction. Similar to the P770, P750 includes tungsten weighting (5 grams precisely located in the sole) in the 3-7 irons that allows for perfectly positioned CG for optimal trajectory and shotmaking. taylormadegolf.eu

TaylorMade M1 Driver BETTER EVERYTHING. The all-new M1 driver takes multi-material construction to the next level to deliver distance, forgiveness and complete personalization. Featuring a new 6-layer carbon crown and additional carbon toe panel, the 2017 M1 driver has 43% more carbon than last year’s model. The additional focus on multi-material construction saves weight to enable lower CG for beer launch conditions and allows for an expanded T-Track for improved adjustability.
Additionally, the iconic two-tone crown of the M1 driver is precision-fit to the skeletal titanium body using an FF2FF process—a breakthrough engineering technique that results in crasmanship of the highest quality with manufacturing repeatability for a consistent, aggressive appearance and undeniable performance. TaylorMade. #1 Driver in GolfTM taylormadegolf.eu
TaylorMade engineers relied on proven internal acoustic management techniques and modified them as necessary to meet the demands of new materials and shaping. The result: the redefinition of best-in-class sound by controlling vibration and pitch at impact. Combined with external performance technologies, TaylorMade has delivered maximum distance and forgiveness through multi-material construction and complete personalization for every swing.

OJAI VALLEY INN & SPA The world-class ojai Country Club was one of the first great golf courses in Southern California. Designed and originally built in 1923 under the direction of George C. Thomas, Jr. and Billy Bell, the course was hailed as "a marvel of golfing architecture." Thomas, who also designed courses at the Riviera, Bel-Air and los Angeles country clubs, had two initial considerations for the ojai course: "...that the average golfer could enjoy his round without too great a penalty, and that a test must be afforded requiring the low-handicap man to play fine golf in order to secure pars." www.ojairesort.com/golf

Footjoy DNA Helix The latest version of the very successful D.N.A. (DryJoys Next Advancement) franchise launches today with the introduction of the all-new D.N.A. Helix. Featuring a wider platform and a structured, lightweight construction to create power from the ground up, DNA Helix is available on footjoy.com and wherever FJ golf shoes are sold. Originally launched in 2014, the DNA category has been widely adopted at every level of play, including on the worldwide professional Tours. Inspired by that heritage of success, DNA Helix was developed from the ground up based on specific feedback from the world’s best players who value the combination of flexibility and comfort but requested more platform stability, particularly in the heel area of the shoe. “I’ve worn every version of DNA and this is by far the best for me,”said Sco Stallings. “The additional support they built in, especially laterally as I move back and through the ball, is fantastic."
The new NitroThinTM 3.0 TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) outsole foundation in DNA Helix was developed to deliver the additional stability requested by Tour players. In fact, DNA Helix is 38% more stable than its predecessor. This was achieved by increasing the width between the cleat receptacles in the heel by 13% for more surface coverage underfoot. In addition, a new fitbed was developed with more lateral stability and the integration of a 3D FoamCollar also helps to lock the player’s foot in place. The new outsole also features strategically placed cut-outs in the TPU to expose more of the soer midsole which contributes to this outsole being 23% lighter than the previous version as well as being more flexible. “While it was certainly a challenge to improve upon a shoe as successful as D.N.A., the continued dialog we have with our Tour staff revealed there was an opportunity to improve the overall performance of the category,”said Keith Duffy, Senior Product Manager, Footwear. “But this isn’t just an update for us. D.N.A. Helix is a completely new golf shoe built from the ground up to deliver Tour-level performance and lightweight comfort for all players.” www.footjoy.com

Aî…šer a nine month renovation, the new and improved Turtle Point Golf Course reopened october 1, 2016 to rave reviews from members and guests. late in 2015, Jack Nicklaus, along with the members of his architectural team, surveyed the course and made recommendations for the improvements. Renovations included refurbishing green complexes, re-grassing the greens, tees and fairways with Paspalum (the same salt-tolerant strain of grass that is on The ocean Course, osprey Point and oak Point), rebuilding all bunkers, laser leveling all tee boxes, including the range and reestablish irrigation throughout the course. kiawahresort.com/golf/turtle-point-golf-course/

The Ashbury golf courses are set in over 600 acres of beautiful countryside, offering stunning views of Dartmoor and across the rolling Devon countryside towards Exmoor. We offer four 18 hole long courses Kigbeare, Pines, Beeches and oakwood. We then have the Ashbury course which may be played inconjunction with the pines front 9 or back 9 which provides a further 2 long course options. This is complemented by the Willows 18 hole Par 3 course. With exceptional choice we are in the enviable position of being able to offer great variety, with oakwood giving golfers the opportunity to score well if they can manage their way around, avoiding the many water hazards and carefully placed bunkers. Whilst Pines offers a completely different challenge with its tall pine tree lined fairways offering inviting tee shots that need to be kept straight, in order to reach the green in regulation. www.manorhousehotel.co.uk/Pages/11/Golf.html

This course offers everything a good golf course needs along with the signature feel of a course created by Germany’s world-class golfer Bernhard langer. The 18-holes in Brunnwies were the first to be designed by Bernhard langer in Bad Griesbach. The result: one of the top 20 courses in Europe (“Golf World England“). This course challenges good golfers, yet is still suitable for all skill levels – this applies to all of the championship courses at the golf resort, and most especially to the Brunnwies Golf Course. The countryside is charming all on its own as it offers a beautiful view of the lower Bavarian woods. it comes as no surprise that the Roal and its surrounding hill country are oen referred to as “The Bavarian Tuscany”. Playing an 18-hole round on the Brunnwies course proves that this name is indeed justified. As for the athletic factor, the course impresses not only with how meticulously it has been integrated into the countryside, but also with its hand-mown and oen heavily contoured greens, as is the case with hole 11. on this hole, the flag may be placed at three different levels. Being a master at puing is more essential for a good score on this course than on any of the rest. www.quellness-golf.com/en/golf/golfcourses/brunnwies-golf-course/
