If I had the money, I'd go for this. It's not every day you get an opportunity like this.

The price is exclusive of airfares...

Yeah, I realized that. So, expect to spend about USD$10k for everything, including shopping etc. Trip of a lifetime, IMHO

if i strike the toto, i would round up 3 of my best mates and go for this trip... pity the only thing i've ever struck was a match.

It would be nice to have a chance to be there.

I've struck some toto.... but only enough to take a taxi to the airport to watch you and your friends fly off for the trip.

I thought Augusta master tickets were on an invite only list thats not been open since 2002.

yes. that would be correct or if you are already a member there. still possible to get them.

Orh. Thats where the tickets come from.

Supply and demand balancing out.

the famous quote... everything has a price... haha

Augusta town itself is very small and pretty boring. I did a detour on my roadtrip just to have a look at the famed entrance and Magnolia Lane and this was the closest I got



It didn't help that it was late fall last year and the club was closed.

They have an interesting name for their expressway to commemorate the greatest golfer to hail from there:



There are no big name golf stores or Masters memorabilia there for sale as Augusta National GC holds the rights to the name itself and merchandising. You will be on a fruitless trail should you try and look for any golfing bargains during your time there.

I suggest that you take the week before or after the Masters tournament to go check out Atlanta. Its a 2hr+ drive due west of Augusta and go visit one of those mega PGA Superstores. Its truly a golfer's playground akin to Toys R' us for kids:

8 hitting booths complete with simulators:


An indoor bunker and chipping green for you to test out all the wedges:


A super huge putting green to try out those brand new Odysseys and Scotty Camerons:



Even TSL couldn't resist trying out some of the equipment and she gave the sims a go:


And finally, interesting golf carts on display outside:

S70B, that is golf shopping heaven. Wish SG has something close to this.......

Thanks for the pics.... Its eye opening...
