Just got an email saying that I was not selected for tickets to The Masters. :-( Did any Sand Trappers get selected for tickets?

Not selected...

I didn't realize they send the taunting email saying I was not selected, so when I saw the email come through I got excited thinking I had them.......WRONG!

Nope. Oh well. I think I'd actually prefer going to the practice rounds. I'd imagine it would be (slightly) less crowded. And I'd still be able to see the course, which is why I'm really interested in this.

I've never "applied" for masters tickets. What is the process for trying to get tickets. I didn't even know you could get rejected, but i suppose with the number of people trying...do they just choose randomly? Enlighten Me.

Nope. Waiting on the practice round drawing though. Honestly, I'd rather get that than a tournament day.

The Old Rich White Guys Stuff Club?  Lol... my guess is they do a full background check and require 3 character references, blood sample, fingerprints and a video explaining why you feel you should receive tickets to ever step foot onto their hallowed grounds.

LOL, Wouldn't be surprised. They probably expect an interview about your ambitions and goals.

The selection is simply "random" and I put "random" in quotes because that's their wording. Basically, you register online by filling out their application form which simply requests that you provide your Name, Address, Phone, Email, Birth Date, whether you would like Tournament Rounds/Practice Rounds and how many of each ticket type (limited to 4, I think?). I also think it may have asked for SSN# as well, but I can't quite remember.

Anyway, I got the damn declined email again. 4 years and running :( Now I feel guilty because I would not fly to GA for a practice round unless it was Wednesday. I would likely give away the practice round if I won tickets to any other day.

    • However, have you ever considered using small summer houses for such setups? They offer a great solution for creating dedicated practice areas, especially for an affluent audience looking to enhance their outdoor living space.
    • I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

    • Day 106 - Worked on chipping/pitching. Focus was feeling the club fall to the ground as my body rotated through. 
    • Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
