The Masters Tournament, also
known as The Masters or The U.S. Masters (outside of the United
States), is one of four major championships in men's professional
golf.
The Masters, scheduled for the
first full week of April, is the first of the majors to be played
each year. Unlike the other major championships, the Masters
is held every year at the same location, Augusta National Golf
Club, a private golf club in the city of Augusta, Georgia.
The Masters was started by Clifford
Roberts and Bobby Jones, who designed Augusta National with course
architect Alister MacKenzie.

Hot Golf Tip
Each golf tip will teach you to
putt, drive, chip, hit fairways, bunkers, or tough shots - whatever
you want your club to do to your ball!
Have a Video Camera?? TAPE
YOURSELF!! You will be AMAZED at how
bad you look swinging the clubs, and very impressed with yourself
that you can pick out the flaws!! WARNING: WE are our own worst
critics. You will find a lot that can be improved. Work on
one
area at a time (i.e. follow through, backswing, keeping head
down,
etc.)
A GREAT trick I once tried
was rather simplistic in nature. As
mentioned, I get a lot of practice on the course. One day, I
brought my neighbors video camera (you didn't think I would take
mine, did you????) I fastened with bungee cords the video camera
to the front metal frame that holds the windshield on my cart.
Whenever I came to my ball, I turned the camera on. After my
(mis)hit, I turned the camera off. I was kind enough to also
do
that for my partner.
I found out MORE during that
15 minutes (yes, the tape was ONLY 15
minutes.
