Retro Day at Princes – 20th March 2025

2025-02-01T15:36:00+00:00January 30th, 2025|Events|

We’re kick starting our 2025 event campaign, with a Retro Day at Prince’s, host of the 1932 Open Championship where Gene Sarazen lifted the Claret Jug with his new fangled iron with a beefed up sole, what would become known as ’the sand wedge’. Sarazen’s win at prince’s in ’32 was a watershed moment in the history of Prince’s as well as in the evolution of golf club design. As a reminder, our retro events require you play (wherever possible) with pre-1997 clubs, and bonus points are up for grabs for any retro clothing you are wearing. We’ll be [...]

Afternoon at Sunningdale Heath – 3rd October 2025

2025-01-30T16:53:58+00:00January 30th, 2025|Events|

Sunningdale Heath may be a par 58, but don’t be fooled – it’s a real long iron test and far from easy despite the yardage. Designed by Harry Colt, this charming course offers a quick round, typically wrapped up in just 2.5 hours, leaving plenty of time to enjoy the best bacon roll in the game and a bit of cornhole afterwards. The event was so much fun last year, we had to do it again. All this for just £50 – a perfect afternoon. For a taste of what’s in store, check out our last year’s event here. [...]

CJG x Sounder Golf Retro Extravaganza: West Byfleet Golf Club

2025-01-17T10:49:19+00:00October 24th, 2023|Events, Video|

People from all over the country descended on West Byfleet Golf Club on the 19th October for our second Retro Event. Everyone playing took things seriously, carefully curating their sets with persimmon, blades, wands and clubs of special meaning. West Byfleet is a wonderful course for such an event, playable and relatively generous off the tee, but with all the intricacy to ensure players wishing to be in the prizes needed all the shots. Huge congratulations to ex Touring Pro Josh White for his 67 and winning the gross, as well as nearest the pin leaving it inside an inch. [...]

Our 2023 Spring Meeting was held at Moortown & The Alwoodley Golf Club on the 10th & 11th May. A celebration of the early work by the great Dr Alister MacKenzie who designed and laid out the courses in Leeds. Alwoodley was his maiden attempt and nervous members - keen to find out whether their money was going to good use - appointed HS Colt to come and check the work by this physician turned architect. Not long after, MacKenzie was part of the group of founding memebrs at Moortown looking to establish a course less than a mile from [...]
