I don't know what the ratings were for the Masters on TV. I didn't watch as much as I thought I would but I am not certain why. The reputation that Tiger Woods has is the he spikes the number of TV viewers.

The whole thing that was shown over here in England. We don't get the Golf Channel anymore, so golf coverage is few and far between.

I watched almost all that was on the weekend. Missed the first hour or so on Sunday, and skipped out for a bit when it became clear Mickelson would win, but listened on the radio and then watched the end at the golf shop. Thurs and Fri I watched a few holes here and there online.

In the bag:
FT-iQ 10° driver, FT 21° neutral 3H
T-Zoid Forged 15° 3W, MX-23 4-PW
Harmonized 52° GW, Tom Watson 56° SW, X-Forged Vintage 60° LW
White Hot XG #1 Putter, 33"


I hardly watched any of it on tv. I mostly watched the streaming feed from masters.com at work and on my phone over the weekend.

I pretty much watched all of it (thank you DVR!) on tv, and a lot of it pre-tv on streaming video on Masters.com. Great tournament, exciting to watch. Second year in a row that I've watched the Masters, and boy it sure isn't disappointing!

I watched a lot of it, but sometimes it was a challenge to not go out and hit a few balls while it was on haha. Watched pretty much all of it on Saturday and Sunday.

Cut out a little early on Thursday and caught most of the broadcast. Watched off and on via the web on Friday, then pretty much every minute over the weekend.

The TV ratings were very good, but nothing like early predictions of Super Bowl figures. Sunday was well behind the numbers of Tiger's 1997 win.

Competitive golf is played mainly on a five-and-a-half-inch course... the space between your ears.

Every minute, although some of it was on tape delay using DVR (hence my delay in comments here).

I watched Thursday and Friday, even a little of the Par 3 Contest on Wednesday. Although on Saturday, set up the DVR. The band I'm in, ( www.myspace.com/finalalibi ), had a battle of the bands. Then came home late, watched it all in a matter of 2 hours. Sunday was spent watching all of the final round. My wife knows that I don't do much on Masters Sunday.

Every minute of live broadcast, Wednesday through Sunday, including some live streams here and there.

Hardly believe people at this forum is the group that makes the difference though, most would've watched The Masters, regardless of Tiger.

Barely got to watch any of it. Watched on my iPhone during break at work and then was out playing on Sunday. For those that have DVR recording things, does it record to an actual DVD-R? If yes, anyone care to send me the recording?!@

I watched most of the masters in the weekend. Being on in the morning over here I can watch it then go out for a game after.

They say golf is like life, but don't believe them. Golf is more complicated than that.


I watched about 90% of it. Most on the DVR. Some of it online from work. Sunday I hit the DVR and went golfing with my buddy in the morning. We got back from golf at about 1PM Pacific and were sure to not run across anybody that had results. (twice someone almost ruined it for me) We then barbecued and watched it tape delayed with our family's.

I caught the Thursday and Friday coverage. Actually played golf Saturday and Sunday, but we finished up in time Sunday to catch the back nine of those in contention. I rather play than watch and with the weather getting better around here, I'm watching a lot less.

    • 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.
