I have a friend that usually does security at the Masters. I am fairly certain that he has the Tiger, JT, and Couples practice round.

No but it’s weird. There aren’t even really insects. No bees. No chipmunks. Birds. Nothing.

Exchanges are annoyingly by mail only.

That is weird actually. I’ve sadly never been there. But ‘no’ fauna at a golf course in Georgia? Almost Stephen King like......

Whoa...I didn’t see that. Is it solid gray with the neon zip? Nothing else on it?

FYI: the Masters official Instagram account is doing Stories. 

For those not familiar w/Stories, it's videos and photos not part of the regular feed and they disappear in a day. Right now, there's a lot of video on the merchandise tent and photos of the course and patron tips. You can download them before they disappear using third party services but it's a hassle.

That’s so cool Erik! I can’t wait to do that myself. Hoping for 2020 or 2021 so I can arrange the trip appropriately. Did you get some goosebumps when you first got there? I bet when you got to 18 (first hole for you yes?) it was just a feeling only die hard golfers can relate to. Just awesome!

Here's the thing… I'm not easily impressed. I've talked to a number of very famous people, or had meals with them. I've been to some pretty cool places.

I wasn't awed by the elevation changes. I know what TV does to a course, having spent a LOT of time at Muirfield Village and/or Oakmont, for example.

The bunkers - their depth - were the only real thing that impressed me.

The rest I either knew or had read about or wasn't surprised by.

I don't wanna sound like a downer. I'm just not an easily impressed kind of guy.

I remember standing by the fairway bunkers on 18, and being blown away remembering the shot Sandy Lyle hit.

I can understand that. Rather than 'impressed' I guess I was more referring to the 'moment.' For example, I'd seen pictures and read about the Mona Lisa all my life. But the first time I stood there at the Louvre and saw it there in its small glass case, surrounded by people, I wasn't 'impressed' with the artwork itself but I certainly got a case of goosebumps standing there looking at it in person. Does this make sense?

      First Season With Blades - Let's Discuss

      By tomfig · Posted

      I’d go with the Titleist if you liked the look of the blades but were suffering with distance. They should be a little more forgiving than a full blade and still retain some workability. Also remember to consider the shafts each have as this will be a big contributor to how they feel. Clemsonfan is right though… get fit or spend a bit of time on a launch monitor 🤙

      My Swing (Tomfig)

      By tomfig · Posted

      Hi All my New Year’s resolution was to start playing golf again. I’ve caught the bug and am really enjoying hitting balls at a couple of my local ranges.looking forward to getting back out on courses in the spring. Based in the UK and 38 years old, I’ve been playing since I was a kid. Best handicap I’ve held is 2 in my mid 20s. Over the past 10 years I’ve played once or twice a year, sometimes with friends or for work. Could shoot 4-5 over, but just as easily shoot 15-20 over. I’ve moved to South Wales and am very lucky to be near some world class links courses, which gives me even more motivation to get playing again! I will start looking for a local coach in my area when I have more time to invest, but I recalled scouring this forum a few years ago and finding some good tips and advice so wanted to give it a try to see if there were any glaring issues I could fix in the meantime!  A few swings below… one from 1st week Jan and one from today. I have fixed my P1 takeaway to my liking and am now working on what I see as pretty severe early extension & hip thrust. Also terrible hip rotation. I’d like confirmation that this is indeed a problem and and suggestions on a few good drills. Thanks for reading 🙂 I've been Playing Golf for: 30+ years My current handicap index or average score is: 10ish over My typical ball flight is: mid The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: push right with irons, hooks and push with driver!  Videos:
