OPINION

Ranking All 18 Holes At Augusta National

Do You Agree?

One of my favorite “Masters magic” elements is the course design. It’s not overly punishing for top players—winning scores have been getting lower over the years—but it makes the world’s best think through strategy in a way most places can’t match.

Here is Sean's ranking of all 18 holes with comments on what makes each of them unique.

(Before we get to that, let me just say that Sean is wrong … a lot, so I’d love it if you left a comment on the post letting him know what you think are the best holes at Augusta.)

The Pocket Bunker

No Sand Required

Let’s be honest: Regardless of the time of year, you probably don’t practice your bunker game enough, if at all. For many of us, practice time is limited. When we do get to the range or practice facility, getting in a bunker to work out of the sand is pretty low on the priority list. That’s assuming a well-maintained practice bunker is available, which often isn’t the case.

We’ve got a solution.

For $21.99, Amazon will ship you the Pocket Bunker. Take a golf ball, attach it to a plastic octopus appendage, and, voila!

Your bunker problems are solved FOREVER.

Ok, that’s over the top. My bad. Let me try again.

Your bunker problems might be alleviated somewhat.

As with most things, the Pocket Bunker brings with it both pros and cons.

Less Loft for Lower Scores?

For a 15-handicap golfer, the average proximity to the hole is 9 feet closer with a Pitching Wedge than with a Sand Wedge.

Those same golfers also successfully convert the up and down 13% more often.

Around the green, often less is more.

The Ultimate Masters Gift Guide

Not Your Typical Gift Guide

The season’s first major is upon us and PGA Tour Superstore has a plethora of equipment and apparel to help you celebrate. We’ve done the hard work to put together a Masters gift guide for the top items you can find this spring. We’ll start with the clubs for the top five players in the tournament.

In this guide, we preview what’s in the bag of the Masters tournament favorites as well as some of the cool limited edition and themed stuff to commemorate the “season opener”, the “first major” or whatever tap dance brands choose to, for legal reasons, avoid saying “The Masters”

Which SuperStroke Grip is Right For You?

Look, I’m a pretty smart guy. I’m up on the gear trends. I’m familiar with nearly every club lineup there is, but …

SuperStroke’s grip lineup can be baffling. I mean, there’s a lot. Different sizes, different shapes, and different textures.

The volume of putter grips alone is enough to make you forget that SuperStroke also makes grips for the rest of your clubs.

But hey, good news. If you’re like me (kinda confused), we can all get un-confused together.

In this guide, we step you through the whole of the SuperStroke lineup to help you figure out which grip might be right for your putter (and your other clubs too)
