Links Golf Club, Newmarket, Suffolk

The Proshop

John Sharkey has been the PGA professional at The Links Golf Club for 10 years.

He has a well-stocked shop, which caters for every golfing need.

All major brands of equipment and clothing are available.

John is a partner of the Foremost For Golf buying group, which ensures that he is able to buy in stock at some of the most competitive prices around which is reflected in the prices he is able to offer his customers.

As a member of the Foremost buying group, John has much more purchasing power and is able to set prices at extremely competitive levels. He doubts very much he will be beaten on price locally.

As well as the value for money prices on all branded golf equipment there are special products that manufacturers only offer the biggest retail outlets.

As an experienced PGA pro, John is available for lessons on the practice ground or out on the course.

The Links is very fortunate to have probably the best practice and training facilities in the Eastern Region where you are able to practice and improve your game from the difficult bunker shot to that troublesome driver.
