In my role as UK courses editor at Golf Monthly, we are sometimes accused – slightly unfairly in my opinion – of devoting too much time to the premier courses that reside towards the top end of golf’s green fee spectrum. It’s true - our Top 100 UK & Ireland...

With the nights getting lighter and golf clubs across the country preparing for the start of the season and those qualifying competitions we asked Golf Monthly's Jezz Ellwood for his thoughts on what are the best golf prizes? You would hope that prizes would never be the core reason for...

As 2016 draws to a close, we asked Jezz Ellwood, Contributing Editor of Golf Monthly, to reflect on the golfing season. I suppose every year is memorable in its own way, but 2016 feels a little different, for while there have been, as ever, surprise winners, multiple winners, young winners, old...

Joshua Clare-Flagg of Watchitallabout compares the ETIQUS Sport Pro with a Stainless Steel bracelet and Summer White Dial with the equivalent model in the Sport Tour collection and gives his opinions on the ETIQUS range.

When I asked Etiqus founder, Gary Butler, what he would like me to cover in my start-of-the-season blog, he suggested something about ‘Auld Grey Toons’ as Auld Grey is one of the new colours in the best-selling Sport Tour watch. Easy I thought – I’ll just cut and paste the blog about...

Frequent St Andrews visitor Golf Monthly’s Jezz Ellwood ponders the question and gives us his insights to help any first timer visitor to the home of golf.

Leading golf performance coach Karl Morris gives his perspective on how time can define your golf game. Karl is well regarded having worked successfully with six Major winners and over 100 Tour Professionals. One of the unique aspects of being human is our relationship and perception of ‘time’. We are by and...

Golf Monthly Contributing Editor Jezz Ellwood gives his insight into the principles of sporting etiquette in the modern day.  It would be fair to say that, as a wordsmith, my mind often overly busies itself with wordplay, as my Golf Monthly colleagues will willingly testify.

Watch Blogger and social golfer Joshua Clare-Flagg gives his reasons why he's fallen in love with ETIQUS watches. I first discovered ETIQUS in January 2015.
