The Masters - Augusta National Wed. Practice Round

[RochesterHillsTV]

Mmmmm, hand-made pimento cheese sandwiches. Worth the 12 hour drive from Detroit.

I live in Augusta and I think its funny how everyone from out of town calls it Washington Ave. It's really Washington Rd. I go to the Masters every year and it really is a privelage to be able to step onto that course and you can get tickets for cheap you just have to know how to get them. I get practice rounds for free every year.

[simpsvt97]

Nice video. I live in Middle Ga. I'm glad that you did show that Augusta National isn't in some secluded country club type area. Its right on a big highway. Most people I've met and talked with don't know that.

Pretty nice video. I work on hole 10 every year and sometimes, I don't get to truly appreciate the course.

All of the actual tickets including badges are cheap if you get them from Augusta but the challenge is just getting them. All of the badges have been spoken for for years and you either need to know someone and or get them on ticket services and or eBay but they are very very expensive. The practice round tickets from Augusta which is a drawing each year are only $20 or so the badges are only around $50 - it is not the money for Augusta.

Patrick - Thanks for taking the time and providing the video. Great fix for those that are still talking about the tournament on Monday. What does it cost to go Thursday through Sunday?

[pve6917]

I personally do not go Thurs - Sun as I hate to miss any of the action from being there. I much prefer the practice rounds but everyone is different. If you want some of the photos from that I would be happy to email them to you as well.

Hi, love the video, surprised they let you film the course and everything else, no security on things like that, dan

[pve6917]

You can only take a camera and or video camera in on practice rounds. Thurs - Sunday no cameras at all. My battery died as I could have gotten some good footage at the par three as well as close ups of Tiger, Phil, Jack, Gary Player and Arnold. Maybe next year.

who would go and leave early?

[pve6917]

Many people get to the course first thing in the AM and will walk the course - eat the food and buy some Masters gear and hit the road. Usually those that have been there many times before and only on the practice rounds. The weekends are only for those with badges and they must be returned to the owners and the badge owners never give them away.

[itubeutude]

thanks for the vid. how much are those guys outise the gates charging for the practice tickets?

[pve6917]

I heard some kids trying to sell them between $100 and $200 for Wed practice rounds but the longer the day went on the cheaper the tickets were. You can also get someones ticket for free if you find someone leaving early and still get in a see everything.

great vid appreciate your post and the time you've taken to give an insight into the spectators viewpoint!
