The Masters
- Thread starter stinkyboy
- Start date
It is unfortunate, as Jack Nicklaus pointed out, that the tournament is catering to a few while eliminating even more. All the length they are adding is only making the coures a real challenge for a few golfers, while effectively elmininating a whole slew more. It is unfortunate that they had to do it, the Masters has always been about slick greens, tall rough, and ball placement. They would have been better off narrowing the fairways, drying out the greens, and planting a few strategic trees rather than expanding the course like they have.
hell, they are buying up land to build another driving range, because the one they have is too short.
on a side note, I had to pass on Tuesday tickets.

I've been before and I will go again, since the family owns for tourney passes. Our household drinking vessel of choice is the souvenir beer cups. I probably have 1000 of them, more shirts than I can wear, ball markers, Limited Edition commemorative watches, etc...
hmmm, let me think about that.

Guy I went to school with played in the Masters last year. I think he's still on the PGA tour. Apparently he's become a total wanker too.

Just got back from Augusta yesterday....Hung out with my dad and my brother and my best friend. This was my first time down there and I was enamored with the whole spiel they got going on down there. You have to look waaayy into the woods to find a weed growing anywhere they don't want it to.
Anyhoo....here are some of the pics I took.
Magnolia Lane...mere mortals don't get to drive down this driveway.
They run the dirty, unwashed public through their security system that rivals Heartsfield International Airport.
The front of the clubhouse.....where's my straw hat an mint juilep?
Interview area behind clubhouse:
Belvedere!!! .....That mint juilep, please.
The spread as you come into the course area:
Yeah....they grow grass that short --- fairway.
Those famous azaleas:
First beer of the day:
The big board:
Phil Mickelson -- putting green
John Daly
Davis Love III
Vijay Singh
Tiger and Stevie

sweet pics. thanks.
yeah i love it when rich people move into town, buy a bunch of land put up a gate, build a bunch of houses centered around where there used to be nature and now its a golf course. Tear up ever rock and tree, plant thousands of non-native species, then dump chemicals all over it for the rest of their lives so they can sit back on their decks with the select few and admire how pretty the mountains are. f'n jackoff golfers can all freakin rot.
is that any different from how others use the land they bought?biggins said:
As a taxpayer it was part my land. It was public land at a county park. The county stuporvisors just gave it to the great Tiger Woods and his First Tee to clearcut and poison for a goof course.narlus said:
