With the weather conditions sometimes very ‘linksy’ at Formby Golf Club, we are delighted to introduce new Tacit Golf airflow flags from Tacit Golf North making their debut at Formby GC.

They look fantastic and should help reduce strain on the pins during inclement weather.

Great day on Saturday at Formby as the team took on Formby Artisans (FAGC).
