2,4, and 6. Bad knee or not, I would give up a kidney to play Augusta National.

Added: Since Tiger is broken, can I substitute a round with Jack?

Easy 1, 4 and 5.

My stupid heart condition means I don't get to drink alcohol. Boo hoo.

I think playing with John Daly would be a stitch, playing with Tiger would also be great, but I'd rather get to play Augusta. 

Free clubs for life would rock. I'd try out so many clubs. ... I love shiny things. 
 

You need a new cardiologist! Mine prescribed a drink a day. 

I choose the lifetime beer - I think that would sure make me a hit with the rest of my foursome no matter how badly I played! I'd also take the round at Augusta and the clubs, thank you.

Give me the stuff I can make money on.

The tickets, the clubs and the beer. 

I have plenty of money. I’m going for the memories.

2,4,5 - I feel like I would enjoy the Masters experience, but would be unlikely repeat it yearly, whereas I would continue to mess around with clubs.

I picked the Lifetime Masters Tickets, the Round at Augusta, and the Round with Tiger...basically because they all can't be "bought" with money.

(I'm assuming that I can't take the "free golf clubs for life" and just keep selling them for profit)  😀

Although, I don't think Tiger can play golf anymore.

I'd still take walking around a course with Tiger, while I played, over anything else on the list.

Are you implying John Daly CAN be bought?  Well, there is the free beer with the cart girl... John does have his price...

Well...I'm pretty sure if you contacted him somehow and said "I'll give $5,000 to the charity of his choice" to play a round with him, you could.

Also, in all honestly, I completely disregarded that as an option and forgot it existed.

2, 3, 4.  PGA gets in Masters for free, I get clubs for free already, and I don’t really need to play with John Daly.  Playing with Tiger and at Augusta would be great! Free beer was just the next best option, and I do enjoy beer.

2, 4 & 5. 2 and 4 would be once in a lifetime events and 5 lets me open up a lucrative online golf club business.

2, 4, and 5 for me as well. Exactly what Bill said for 2 and 4 and I like trying out new equipment so 5 is awesome for me, even without thinking about reselling what I don't use. I could care less about free beer or John Daily, and while I'd love to go to see a Masters in person, I don't think I'd actually care to go every year.

1, 5 and 6 for me. I could pick and choose what clubs I want without fear of cost, and I’ve always wanted to go to Augusta and meet John Daly.

I wasn’t even thinking about selling what I don’t use. It said free golf clubs for life... I was going to open an online store with $0 inventory costs 😃

That’s why I didn’t pick 1, too.

I live in Georgia...this was easy.  A lifetime pass, at Augusta, is money in the bank.  A round with Tiger...of course.  And a round at Augusta...yeah.  I have to say, however, that I may be full of it.  I'm much more like John Daly than I am like Tiger Woods.  I've been to Augusta twice and have no desire to return.  And there are plenty of courses I would rather play than Augusta National.  

In truth...my trifecta would be playing a round with Daly at my local...hitting the tavern for a few cold ones and a burger...then plugging in some guitars and seeing what happens.

In der bag:
Cleveland Hi-Bore driver, Maltby 5 wood, Maltby hybrid, Maltby irons and wedges (23 to 50) Vokey 59/07, Cleveland Niblick (LH-42), and a Maltby mallet putter.                                                                                                                                                 "When the going gets tough...it's tough to get going."

2, 4, 6. Unless I can sell the golf clubs for extra income—then 2, 4, 5. I didn’t go with 1 because I’ve been, and it’s great, but I don’t like crowds. Besides, if you’ve been once, you’ve experienced it. Better to have a recliner, fridge, and A/C. 

Yep.   The opportunity to play with two, albeit very different, legends of the game and to play at Augusta are what I’d pick.  I can afford to buy my own golf clubs and beer.  Plus, I would rather play golf then watch golf regardless of where it is…

    • I did not realize that, I was thinking a more traditional golf club.  
    • Thanks for the feedback. @StuM, we are a "club without real estate" so no facilities or pro. We have a membership of around 185 players and we only play together as a group at our tournaments, which are held at public access courses. A group of us setup the tournaments, collect the money and dole out the prizes.
    • In general, granting free relief anywhere on the course isn't recommended.  Similarly, when marking GUR, the VSGA and MAPGA generally don't mark areas that are well away from the intended playing lines, no matter how poor the conditions.  If you hit it far enough offline, you don't necessarily deserve free relief.  And you don't have to damage clubs, take unplayable relief, take the stroke, and drop the ball in a better spot.
    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.     
    • I get trying to limit relief to the fairway, but how many roots do you typically find in the fairway? Our local rule allows for relief from roots & rocks anywhere on the course (that is in play). My home course has quite a few 100 year old oaks that separate the fairways. Lift and move the ball no closer to the hole. None of us want to damage clubs.
