Like a broken record (so it seems), count me in for 1986 as well. Jack came from behind as the Golf Gods parting the fairways for him for an improbably 6th Green Jacket. Being a Jack Nicklaus fan, this Masters had drama, several contenders, a family element, and the final curtain call for, arguably, the greatest golfer of all time.

Yesssssss Sirrrrrrrrrr!!!!

Crenshaw in '95 was pretty special too.

Funny, I had a tough time deciding between '86 and '95 also... Looks like those two stand out for a lot of people.

My favorite was the 1995 Masters. It was Ben Crenshaw's second Masters win, but what made it special was the circumstances. He came in playing terrible, and his mentor Harvey Penick had just died.

AMEN gotta love this one....!!

I forgot one other, and it is "The Greatest Masters of All Time"------1935. Bobby Jones watched while The Squire, Gene Sarazen, hit a perfect 4 wood second shot to the par 5 15th, and it rolled into the hole for a double eagle!! That is the only double eagle ever recorded by a player on the Sunday of a Major that enabled him to go on and win!!

After I did this post, I read the article in this week's "Golf World" about the famous 4 wood. It is still not certain if the one the USGA has is THE one, but they are fairly certain. Apparently, any where from 6 to 12 replicas were made by Wilson. The club was a Wilson "Turf Rider", with a scooped out sole, and was made only from 1935 until 1939. The article is on page 9 of the January 19th issue. The distance on that shot, by the way, was 235 yards. Pretty good shot for a wee mon with a club that had a persimmon head and steel shaft.

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂

      Pablo, you can’t get much safer than cash and a public meetup spot. Don’t know what happened to you there.  Always check their profile to make sure they have either sold stuff, have other things for sale and have a profile that shows they don’t join FB the day before.  Be wary if the price is too low, but those are usually the people who joined 2 days ago and have nothing in their profile .  Craigslist is the place full of scumbags usually.
