Forged from 8620 carbon steel, the head of the Sweet Feel has quite a high lustre with a satin top edge. Longer hosels than most to keep more head weight towards the heel and help prevent the clubhead closing too much at impact from thicker rough. The face's U-grooves are engineered to boost spin for extra control.

In July 2023, Neil became just the 9th editor in Golf Monthly's 112-year history. Originally working with the best coaches in the UK to produce instruction content, he went on to become a feature writer interviewing many of the biggest names in the game including Tiger Woods, Seve Ballesteros, Rory McIlroy and Arnold Palmer.

A 5-handicap golfer, Neil is a club member who takes a keen interest in the health of the game at grassroots level. You’ll often now find him writing about club-related issues such as WHS, membership retention and how best to bridge the gap between the range and the course.
