Even if it is legit, you're gonna pay many times face value.

I've seen multiple signs with that same number for Masters tickets. Just for fun, I looked at Ticketmaster and StubHub this morning to see what tournament badges were going for. The 4-day badge for the tournament itself started at $9500 and went up from there considerably.  Even practice rounds are going for $1000+

F you are in town, tickets along the side of the road are much cheaper than buying in advance.

Good morning all from sunny but cool camp verde Arizona. Last 2 days were in the 70s. Heading up to Sedona for the day, playing prescott country club tomorrow it's going to be 50 when we tee off with a 25 percent chance of showers after 12. Hopefully this course is nicer than the first one we played but you can't expect to much when it was 20.00 to ride 18. Have a wonderful day everyone.

Good Morning Spies!

GOOD weather finally! 60s for the next few days and the range will be a welcomed sight after snow last Sunday. Coffee ☕ and eggs 🍳 already done. 2nd cup brewing…

Today is National Girl Scout Day….so do your part and find one and buy a whole bunch of cookies 🍪 from them. Remember, you are doing that for the children. Oh, and while you are at it, pick up some bigger pants, ⚖️ you might need them.

Have a great day everyone!

Cheers! ⛳

Good morning all from sunny Cancun! Had some issues getting checked into rooms yesterday which was really frustrating, but not going to let it dictate the week. Our travel agent is working on communicating with the resort. Essentially we didn’t get into our rooms until 6:30pm when we were supposed to at 3pm. Then the other couple traveling with us was given a two double bed room instead of one king, which I realize isn’t a huge deal but was icing on the cake yesterday lol. 

Should be a beautiful day and I got only slightly sunburned on my shoulders yesterday. I’m either white or red, there’s no in between haha. Extra sunscreen and some shade mixed in today.

@GolfSpy_KFT, welcome to travel in Mexico. Tip of the day, stay hydrated.  With or without hats, that is the question. For your friend of course.

@David Leighton Reid, is that a copperhead? I can't tell too good in that photo, but I'm glad you didn't have a run in with it. I don't care what kind of snake it was, it would have startled me pretty good. I have a friend that likes to catch them...I think he's nuts. He wouldn't be doing much chasing right now as he broke a toe last night. 

The wife and I decided to go ahead and pull the trigger on a new fridge. The control panel still isn't working on our current one. We spent quite a bit of time at Lowe's looking at them because she needed the proper "cheese drawer", which is the long one on the bottom of the fridge. We went with a 30.5 cu ft Samsung and got it at a decent price due to a sale. They're delivering it Wednesday and hauling the old one away.

Not gonna lie, I'm a bit emotional about the getting rid of the old one as it was a house warming gift from my mom. She was so proud to be able to buy it for us and I still think about her every time I open it up. 

@GolfSpy_KFTI hope you enjoy your vacation, it looks like a good retreat from the cold climate in Wisconsin. Have fun with the family and I have one pro tip for you: sunscreen. 

Our last condo had one like that - freezer on the bottom - I really liked that feature.

Afternoon All,

 

Last night I wound up getting sick. This morning was still the same so I didn’t head into work. Not sure what I had but my fever spiked to 102.8. Now, I’m just a little tired but temp is 99.4. I’m going to say it was probably something to do with what I ate. That’s the only possibility. Hope everyone is having a great day.

Good afternoon Spies!

Get better @Wheelieb!

Still in Augusta working on my sunburn (I've been sitting out in a parking lot for two days and there isn't a cloud in the sky). GF, however is back home, and the landlords, who live out of town, wanted to come by and look at our place. Which would be okay except the lease limits us to two pets and we, uh, have eight. So she had to make arrangements to get them out of the house for an hour or so while the landlords came by. All worked out, the landlords are happy and none the wiser, and the furbabies are back home.

Somehow I don't think my company is going to send me back to Augusta in four weeks, but it would be interesting if they did. I might have to try the streetside market in that case, @cnosil.

Not sure when I'll get out of here, but might detour to the local Edwin Watts to kill some time this evening. Hoping to get in a round Thursday before I leave town, possibly at Augusta Muni (known as The Patch) or the home course of Augusta U, which has won a few NCAA golf titles.

Watch Stacked Golfs Augusta episode on YT!  They highlight some great golf stores in the area to check out.

@Wheelieb hopefully it's just a 24hr bug that subsides quickly! I e never run a fever from food poisoning,  but I'm sure it could possibly ?

Good morning all..

I have been watching "live from" the past couple of days and wow, lots of information coming from the telecast for me...

Yesterday the back and forth between Paul McGinley and Brandel regarding The Players being considered a 5th major was quite interesting, especially hearing Paul McGinley's take on it...

Today one of my biggest takeaways was the Jay Monohan press conference, his health is in question to me, he looked terrible at the start of the conference but saw some colour come back into his face by the middle so that was good, man he must be under considerable stress.

One more question I have for you knowledgable spy's.. Has Rory lost some of his credibility, whether it be his game or his vision for the PGA tour? Just food for thought out there... 

Anyway have a great day everyone, enjoy the day.

Seems to me that the Tour has hung Rory out to dry quite a bit. Or thrown him under the bus.

I think without public backing from TW, he lost his forward motion, I also think that he kept getting stonewalling from behind the scenes.  Anything he says now is just rhetoric from his brain to his mouth.

@KC Golf @Wheelieb I hope both of you get to feeling better.

@Cfhandyman love the painting and Happy Birthday to your wife! 

@EasyPutter safe travels, my friend.

@David Leighton Reid that snake my not be poisonous, but I agree with you that a heart attack would be a possibility if I almost stepped on it. 

@Michael.Sandoval33 I hope the procedure went well for Pickles. 

@tony@CIC I love having the bottom freezer, it makes things so much simpler instead of having to bend over to dig stuff out of the fridge.

I had so much beach ( sand traps ) time on the golf course today, that it felt like being at an all inclusive resort. 

If only the GC beverage cart was included!
