Could be good. Good luck to you.

I think I'll still go if I get a practice round ticket.

Does anyone know what pctg of tix are lotteried? It's not all, correct? Seems they'd have some pctg available for members' guests, some for other bigwigs, maybe some for locals, etc. Just curious.

The Masters makes it clear that only a select few tournament day tickets  are available through the lottery. I'm guessing it's a 1 in 1000+ odds or worse. If you enter the lottery it should primarily be for the intention of getting a practice round ticket, because those are a bit more realistic.

As I've said before, I wish the tournament would find a way so that only the lottery winners and (and their guests) could use the tickets. Cut down on the scalpers and those who enter just for the hell of it, and those of us who would actually go any day of the week would have much better chances of winning. You already go through strict security as you enter the grounds, just have individual names on the tickets and check IDs as people enter. It wouldn't be a perfect system but it would help a lot.

They really need to find a way to prevent scalping because I'm guessing a large % of the people who enter the lottery are doing it for that reason. They have your name/information when you enter the lottery- why not sync up the ticket to your name and make each person show ID as they enter the grounds to show it's their ticket?? Yes it's not a perfect solution and some people would find ways around it, but it would cut down on a lot of the scalping.


I don't like it.  If they are fairly your tickets (you got them under the same rules as anyone else), you should have the right to do whatever you want with them.  go, give them away, sell them, burn them, fold them into paper boats, whatever....

I agree with this. Sorry, but if I can't make it and somebody is offering me $4,000+ for both of my Sunday tickets (they've gone for several thousand each in the past)... I'm most likely going to sell them without hesitation.

Exactly, and so is 99% of the country-that's why the lottery odds are so bad.  Don't promote a system where scalpers in their mother's basements are profiteering on an event they never plan to attend by putting in for the lottery just to turn around and sell the tickets on stubhub. Promote a system where only people who want to attend the event put in for tickets- I don't really understand why that is an objectionable viewpoint (at least among fellow golf fans).

      Quickie Pitching Video - Golf Pitch Shot Technique

      By mdl ·

      Love resurrecting this thread! The float-load feel bit and then the old video I think from Mike on how to hit low and high chips were the kickstart to my short game journey, where I play well below my handicap (officially 9.x right now, via arccos I only lose 1 stroke per round to a scratch golfer in my short game). I've spent lots of time with float-load and I can be a sniper inside ~40 yards with my GW and 60*. But I actually just started trying a version of this for like ~40-70 yard shots! 70-115 I have a like hands to belly button height stock partial swing shot that I hit with SW-9i dialed.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 ·

      Played 9 today. Good and bad. Full Swing - Right arm straighter feel needs to be there 100%.  Short Game - Just needs a good couple of practice sessions to polish. Too long of backswing most of the time.  Putting - more straight back and straight through “feel” works well. Hitting center of putting face more.

      One Swing With Many Clubs, or One Club With Many Swings?

      By pganapathy ·

      My rule of thumb is a PW for everything from 100 yards in except specialty shots like a flop or a low runner.  I find it easier to eyeball it for distance and swing on feel for the distance I need to hit
