Gearing up for the Masters.. What are your plans for the week. Unfortunately all my buddies think golf is Qoute un-qoute "more boring than watching paint dry." So I will be locking myself indoors with a couple cases of heineken, only leaving to get more beer and food.

I'll be watching. In the past they never showed the players playing amen corner, now that they let the camera's set up in the corner you get to see how the tournament can be won or lost.

You'll miss it if you're watching The Golf Channel. It's on USA.

Thursday and Friday coverage will be on in my office but will mostly be background noise as I am suppose to to be getting some work done on those days. However the weekend coverage will be watched live from my living room. The Masters is by far my favorite major to watch.

I dunno about Thurs - Sat, other than having the online coverage on in my office. On Sunday, I'm going to my folks' place and watching with friends on dad's HD 42" LCD TV.

Thursday : watching the line scores and posts on mikeweir.com.
Friday : watching on my New HD TV
Saturday : Easter at the in-laws, they live in the country and refuse to get satellite, will have to PVR and watch in the evening
Sunday : glued to the TV

The Masters is my far my most favourite. You "know" the course. Plus it is pretty much the start of golf season here, or so close you can smell it. The outdoor ranges open and you can go hit balls in the early afternoon, and then go home and settle in for four great hours of golf.

What's in my bag:
Driver : R7, 10.5 degree, stock stiff shaft
16 Degree Hybrid - Cobra Baffler DWS, with stiff stock shaft
20 Degree Hybrid - Cobra Baffler, with Accra Shaft, Stiff
26 Degree Hybrid - Cobra Baffler, with Accra Shaft, Stiff6 - PW - Bridgestone CG Mid, Dynamic Gold LiteWedges : TBA...

We've got a network TV system in the office, so I'll be watching on USA during the day on Thursday and Friday. The weather outlook is pretty crappy for this weekend, so it looks like I'll be watching live (probably from home) Saturday and Sunday, instead of actually playing golf.

Odd combination, that. I've gotten my mom on the CH3 bandwagon, and we'll be rooting for him come Sunday, I hope.

Well, My favorite golfers are in this order:
1.)Bubba Watson
2.)Charles Howell III
3.)Adam Scott

lol...if Howell, or one of them is playing bad, I root for whoever has a chance to win out of the three.

I believe Watson isn't in the Masters, so Im kinda disappointed.

Thursday - lot of work, so try to catch Amen corner online when possible.

Friday - Try to leave work by 3:30 so that I can catch USA coverage at 4.

Saturday - Cycling with my riding group, so I'll be back late afternoon.

Sunday - One word..."glued"

Bubba'll be in the Masters soon enough. The way he's playing this year, he might just be there in '08. I think he's already earned his TOUR card for '08 with over $900K. You can watch Tom Watson. But he isn't quite the same.

    • ..maybe 1 shot HC change might be a good starting point..
    • Yeah, I have a similar view. I was in the team of 2 and we got down 5 after 5. Get 1 pt if win the hole - whatever that game is called. We lost it 3 down with 2 to play so almost saved it. After the first hole when the single did a putt, then dropped a second ball, made a slight adjustment and sunk it, we thought it wasn't right. We couldn't do anything with handicaps etc so we just made them wait between putts - usually just one of us to putt. We were a 23 and 25 handicappers (probably playing to about 28) and the single was a 16 handicapper, but somehow had a HC of 20 (so that is 1 HC pt already). In terms of making it fair, and changing HC (HC1 + HC2 / 4), I think maybe adding 2 HCs to the double (or taking 2 HC off the single (after the adding and div by 4) might make it fair. Also maybe making a rule that the single couldn't change clubs for the second hit. Hard to say from that one game but possibly: - 2 shot HC adding - can't change clubs for second shot - need to have other team putt in between their 2 putts   Not sure. Do you think you'd still win or have these rules made it unfair the other way? Cheers for thoughts..  
    • In that case I double down on my comments - I'll take the single guy and I know if I'm in that match against two similar players I'm pretty confident that I'm the favorite.
    • Cheers gbogey. The single player can hit 2 balls every shot and take the best ball, and then hit 2 balls from that spot, so your second scenario...
    • Day 119: played 18. Played the back really well after I got @iacas’s advice through my thick skull. Fun round, fun trip, fun company.
