TOUR TRUCK STOPS OFF AT SOLIHULL

The John Letters Tour Truck visited Direct Golf Solihull this weekend. The dreary weather didn't dampen the enthusiasm of the hundreds of keen golfers, who couldn't keep themselves away from the lure of a working European Tour Truck.


Product development manager and Tour Technician James Graham was kept busy by inquisitive golfers eager to learn about the ins and outs of life on tour and keen to get their clubs worked on. James focused on custom fitting wedges on the day, offering a variety of tour only finishes and grinds not usually available on general sale.

The most popular option on the day was a torched finish. By taking the chrome off of the wedges, it opens up a variety of finish options. By taking a blow torch and heating the wedge you can change the colour of the wedge from a light gold all the way to a deep purple depending on how hot and how long you keep the blow torch on the wedge. Another popular tour option for the John Letters TP series wedge is brushed chrome. By putting the wedge on a buffing wheel it dulls the finish to a satin chrome as preferred by many better players for its glare reduction qualities.

This Saturday the van is visiting the Direct Golf UK Wirral store, there all day from 9AM.
