People like you are everything that is wrong with game of golf. Its snobby jerks like yourself that make me not like the tournament across the pond. Older isn't necessarily better in my book.

You are without doubt the most ignorant and crass poster I have ever encountered on any golf forum anywhere.

Its the Open for me. The Masters comes , sorry came close, but this years Masters sort of dampened the squib. As such, the US Open now moves into second, the Masters is relegated to third, and that other one in fourth.

Whats in the bag:

Driver: Nike Ignite 460cc 10.5* Fujikura Ignite reg flex
Fairway woods: Howson tour master power series 3,5 woods
Irons: MacGregor M675 3-PW DG S300 Wedges: Mizuno MP-R Black Nickel 54.10, 60.05Putter: Pinfire Golf P4Ball: Titleist NXT TourHome Course:http://www.golfarmagh.co.uk/...

I would have to say the Masters. I love that it is on the same course every year and I think it is the most beautiful course especially with the azaleas in bloom. The British is second especially when they play at St. Andrews. I will play that course some day.

Driver: MP-600 9.5 w/ Fujikura E360 Stiff Shaft
4 Wood: F-60 16.5 w/ Exsar FS3 Stiff Shaft
Irons:MP-57 3-PW w/ Dynamic Gold S300 Shafts
Wedges: MP-R Black-Ni 52, 56, & 60
Putter: Studio Select Newport 2Ball: ProV1/ProV1xGrips: Winn Xi7


It would have to be the masters.

It has the same tradition all the time and at the same course.

I do like the rest because they change courses every year though. I am not too familiar with the PGA Championship.

1) Masters the course is perfect and I like the music

The Open for me, the original and best. Was delighted to see Padraig Harrington win it last year and hoping for another Irishman/European this year. For me it was the only one on at a sensible time when I was growing up so we would all be watching.

1. The US Open - tough golf, par is king
2. The Open - although it was irrevelant for decades until Arnold Palmer resuscitated it
3. The Masters - Jim Nance ruins it for me, and the sappy features
4. The PGA - Shaun Micheel, what more do you need to know?

It's the only Major played on the same course, time after time.

U.S. Open for several reasons

1. Ultimate test of ability for the players EX: Many unknowns are at the top of the leaderboards the first 2 days, but the real talent shines through at the end.

2. The venues are usually awesome.

3. I could even play in it. (not likely of course)
In the Bag:
Driver: Callaway FT-5
3 Wood: Ping G10
Hybrid: Taylormade Rescue TP(3)
Irons: Mizuno MX25(3-PW)Wedges: Titleist Vokey Spin-Milled 54 and 60Putter: Odyssey Black Series #1

1) The Open (British by far is my favorite!) Hence look at those scores so far today! True golf action....

2) The Masters - It's the Masters!

3) US Open

4) PGA Championship - which is rather ironic, this venue would suit me the best! Go figure.

    • So I am aware that "the committee is allowed to set its own standards of player conduct in a code of conduct adopted as a local rule" (rule 1.2b) I also understand that there are some aspects that are allowed to be entered, and some that are not allowed.  My question specifically is: In which form does this code of conduct need to be available? Is it enough for someone to say "that's part of our code of conduct", or is it a requirement, that the code of conduct is in written form? Also, is there a need that the local rule points to the code of conduct in any way?   For better understanding: I'm playing competition and the next course that we play has a "no smoking policy". I don't have a problem with it, as I don't smoke anyway, but one of my team-mates does, and someone told him "You'll get disqualified if you smoke on the course".   Now I have looked at their local rules and there is no reference to a "code of conduct". I'm not sure if they even have an official "code of conduct" that states that smoking is not allowed.   I fully agree that he SHOULD respect this request from the club, but I am wondering if the club would really be allowed to DQ this player for this, if it's not properly documented in their local rules/code of conduct?  This is an official national amateur tournament, so not just something organized by a club for its members.
    • A few months back I purchased the following swing aid on Amazon ($130). It is solidly made of steel and heavy and stable in use. I use it both at the range and at home. Swing Plate Dual PRO by Jamie Brittain - Swing Analyzer Aid - Fits Standard 8mm Alignment Rod Sticks - Teaching Swing Plane Perfector - Indoor/Outdoor Golfing Practice. This winter I set a goal for myself to improve my backswing/downswing to be more consistent and on plane. I had a two way miss with my approach shots this past golf season. I have a hitting set-up in my garage, but I needed something to provide feedback while swinging the club. I came across the Swing Plate while browsing YouTube.   I set it up with the correct angles for my 8 iron. I started out with just the back rod in place, which prevents me from getting too far inside on the backswing. Started out slow and as I got comfortable increased my swing speed. Now I also came across a YouTube video on building a better backswing and getting more width in the backswing and added that to my practice. That video is here:    This video is a bit wordy since you are basically a fly on the wall as Ian gets a lesson. It took a few replays to be able to get the substance of the instruction. It was well worth the effort. Over the last two weeks I have been able to get out on the course and gauge how successful my practice has been. Overall, my consistency with approach shots has improved greatly. Incorporating the added width in my swing has also added a few yards to all my clubs.  What has your off-season training been like?
