So here's the deal. I want to join a pool in my office for the Masters. It is not a cash payoput, but rather cigars. My trouble comes from the fact that I am not up to par on the tour or the players, so I am asking for a bit of help. Please do not respond, if you don't know about these guys..like me. My team needs at least 9 players to make the cut, and then the highest combined prize money amount wins. I will use one of your picks in it's entirety, and I will post whose I am using. Whether I win or not, i will send the person whose team I use a sleve of Nike One Blacks, and a nice cigar, should you want one. And if I win, I'll add something to it. Thanks in advance.

13 Wedges
1 Putter


My picks. A heavy emphasis on guys playing well heading into this week.

Group 1 - Tiger & Phil (these guys just dominate here)
Group 2 - Leonard & Kenny Perry
Group 3 - Kim & McIlroy (yes, McIlroy is the real deal)
Group 4 - Ogilvy & Stuart Appleby (Ogilvy = best player in the world right now)
Group 5 - Goosen
Group 6 - Robert Karlsson (I don't pick guys who don't wear pants the whole round)
Group 7 - Paul Casey & Lee Westwood
Group 8 - Villegas
Group 9 - Snedeker (not playing well now, but loves Augusta)
Group 10 - Zach Johnson & Mike Weir (easy picks - both playing well)
Group 11 - Langer & Crenshaw (if I have to... )
Group 12 - Curtis, O'Hair, & Watney

I think this is very strange, however it was kinda of fun.

This deffinettly a strange pool, but it has to be otherwise everyone would just say Tiger, phil, and the other top seated players, and we would have 25 way tie. I'm just glad i don't have to sift through all the entries to see who won.

I think this should be enough to pick from. I'll post up later on, Thanks for all the help guys.....

In my bag are

First off i want to thank you all for helping with this. I've got to give special props for those that included reasons behind thier picks. This helped alot. I should have asked for it. Anyway Thanks to all.

I am going with Threeputt's picks, I am a fan of a few of his picks, or i should say my Granddad is. Anyway, enjoy the match, I may take all picks and track who would have won. That would be fun too.

Threeputt, send me your snailer, and I'll get some balls out to you. Would you smoke a cigar If i sent it as well?

In my bag are
Hibore XLS 10.5*

I just won my March Madness bracket and now I hear of a Masters Pool? Where could I find more info on this. Clock is ticking!

They do have a Masters thing on ESPN... a salary cap type pick 'em. You pick four guys for a best-ball. In case you're interested

Just give the balls to a kid that golfs, tell them courtesy of soon to be Hall of Fame Master's picker...Three Putt.

Haven't smoked a cigar in years, give it to someone who would enjoy it also. Hope you win! It was fun enough thinking about the different picks in the brackets.

    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
