I went in 2019 I'll add a little about the souvenir shop At least 20 plus cashiers to get you out and onto the course Also next door to the souvenir shop is a post office So you buy your stuff and instead of carrying it around all day You go the post office and mail it to your home Brilliant! Also no multi breeds of grass One grass on the fairway That's it 7000 yards of grass and only one strain Do you know how hard that is? If you can go! GO

if there's anyone with special powers to get me and my dad tickets for 2024, let me know :D

If you get a ground pass can you follow one golfer for 18 holes and walk
Comment from : Kyle Sanders

Never been, but I’m here working in Columbia Sc and my hotel is packed because of the masters That must be one hell of an event if it got people staying in hotels almost an Hour and a half away I’m definitely trying to go in 2024
Comment from : S Money

Do locals sell tickets on the streets to get in like other sports events?

Going for the first time this year, Friday's round Where is the best place to put my chair?
Comment from : mdailing

I've been 4 times in the past 15 years and I'm only 35 years old It never gets old Such immaculate greens and fairways and rough The fairways are better than a lot of greens I've been on And yes the cart paths are like roads back in the distance And there's no need to worry about ruining to catch tiger on the 16th because running gets you kicked out Augusta is literally made for the masters and nothing more it seems like Im going again in 2024 Can't wait I want on this volunteer list Soon maybe
Comment from : Dane Martin

Never been but sign up for Lotto also
Comment from : Joe Steffe

I was there on Thursday for my first time, a lady in the merch building told me that they sold over 2 million in merch every day One of the best experiences of my life and you did a great job describing it It was hard for me to comprehend the beauty of this place
Comment from : rattown99

Comment from : S Andersson

Its almost stupid how hard it is to get in there!! And it is!!!! My bosses son is a grounds keeper there That being said ive been there Its awesome Totally But so overrated!!! The hype is higher than the course Its beutiful dont get me wrong!! But the hype makes it better than it is!!!!
Comment from : Mike Warner

Hey MrShort Game Golf,brbrI think your shutter speed may be too low on your camera These videos always seem to have some blurred frames which is usually caused by a low shutter speed
Comment from : GolfBusters

I went to The Masters for my first time this year When I got there I played at The Champions Retreat with a PGA Pro WOW! I was very impressed with the course but playing with Todd Dempsey was incredible When he hit the ball the ground shook All in All it was a cool experience
Comment from : Buzzy Germony

That huge space between 1-8-9 is because they originally planned on building a 19th hole to “settle bets”
Comment from : Michael Kinnard

I liked your “Fluff”…it’s because it’s hard to describe how phenomenal this place is…Like God had a hand in the creation…a big hand!
Comment from : Michael Brown

Been there 6 times!!!! The best place on earth👍⛳️ Your explanations were perfect…I use the Disney comparison when telling others about the Maters all the time👌 And how many times were you told “thank you”? And have a great day👍 Never gets old!!!!!
Comment from : Michael Brown

Georgia is a shot hole

DISNEY Do they groom children?
Comment from : That One Guy

It’s been a long time, but I’ve been to several practice rounds, including the Wednesday Par Three tourney, and one Saturday round Back in the 70’s and 80’s before the lottery started
Comment from : Donat Roux

I want to like your content but it's tough for me You need to take a course in getting to the point
Comment from : Babalugats

Just like you always enter email give away No Luck so far here is hoping for next year I am with you that no squirrels on property very weird
Comment from : Joseph Maguire

This year I had all the same thoughts and observations! So glad I watched this video to verify what I was thinking brWatched Scottie walk up to a green to observe before a shot and thought-“I’d be out of breath for minutes and have to delay the shot!”
Comment from : W T Schlosser

How do they police the no phone policy? Surely some people sneak em in and use them on the sly
Comment from : bruce2256

Awesome video! I will keep trying the lottery Would love nothing more than to go there with my wife
Comment from : 7jmill7

I’m from Augusta and I was there Monday and Friday as well!
Comment from : Joshua Banks

Dude the way you described it like Disney world that was amazing 😂😂 I could never have even imagined that or whatever That’s extremely cool though
Comment from : TXTE

Comment from : orionsgolfer

Haven’t been to Augusta National, but it is on my bucket list
Comment from : Hugh Word

You can’t walk around Augusta National and deny the existence of God The most beautiful place I’ve seen in 60 yrs
Comment from : Roger Mccann

Living in GA doesn’t help worth a dam 😢😭
Comment from : drp

Never been
Comment from : Putts and Pars

The craziest thing I remember is seeing a pine cone drop to the ground, and within a minute someone showed up to pick it up
Comment from : Michael Smith

I absolutely love the no cell phone policy It is like stepping back into the early 90s Everyone there is just enjoying the moment and spending time with each other
Comment from : James Washer

I have never been to Augusta National I have watched every Masters since 1972, a bit of a Jack fan It is on the bucket list but do not see it happening I am glad you got to go and enjoyed it
Comment from : Martin Wallingford

Free parking, inexpensive quality food and drink, toilets cleaned after each person, extreme efficiently managing guest through lines Free photo in front of the clubhouse at the end of magnolia lane Others description of hills and grass are great, but you have to see to believe My mom thought it was carpeting
Comment from : R Schmalzried

Do you try and Qual for the US open every yr?
Comment from : Isaac Rock

Cant win tickets 😥
Comment from : Travis Kalbach

We went on Friday in 2012 The thing that surprised me, was the worst place to watch It being by 11 green/12 tee at Amen Corner You are so far away from actually seeing the approach/tee shots landing, and you can't see 13 tee at all The best place to watch was left of the pond by 16 green You can see the tee shots landing on 16, and everyone putting out on 15 The people are so nice, and the food is awesome, especially at those prices
Comment from : M H

Totally enjoyed the Masters this year so much It was totally amazing in every way and I can’t imagine how awesome it would be to be there in person Thanks for sharing
Comment from : Eric Nyenhuis

Iv never been to the masters it would be dream come true It sounds absolutely awesome Man I really wanna win a ticket now!
Comment from : Stewart Hunt

True southern hospitality at Augusta National I was floored when heard how cheap their concessions were Nice to know there's one place that isn't out to gouge the spectators
Comment from : Davi Clar

It’s a better experience every time I get to go!!!!!!!
Comment from : Sonny Reel

Never been there
Comment from : Joseph Jolly

Used to work for Augusta National through university of South Carolina Unbeatable experience, absolutely incredible The ins and outs and logistics of the tournament is mind blowing
Comment from : Jack Young

Don’t know if I’d want to play a course with a Halfway House
Comment from : Javier Gonzalez

My first time going this year as well and I have been telling people this exact thing It very much reminded me of a theme park
Comment from : Jason Elkins

Been one time On Sunday when Tiger completed his Tiger Slam
Comment from : TheTopFan

Been going on average every couple years for 40yr (non badge holder) and it never gets old Got to take my daughter this year Did ya know minor can go with badge owners and the minor gets to keep their badge as a souvenir? They treat kids like royalty there
Comment from : Dave Holmes

Good to hear you had a great time Had the privilege of attending the Champions Dinner in 2018 It’s probably on my mind every day
Comment from : carlos4a

It’s on my bucket list buddy 👍⛳️
Comment from : john ortega

I probably sold you your hat I worked in the pro shop for a college internship, would have recognized you though
Comment from : Cameron Dodge

Got to work at Augusta in 2013 We called the little merch stands around the course "Satellite Shops" On average, Augusta sells a hat every 2 seconds during Masters week We had one patron buy over 600 chairs!
Comment from : Joseph Rice

Bucket list
Comment from : Beer Buffet

And now you are hooked on attending the Masters!!! It gets in your blood and you want to go back every year I have been lucky enough to attend about 8 times over the past 15 years or so I have never been to a tournament round, but have been to the AGNA Women's AM as well as every day of the practice rounds It truly is a place like none other
Comment from : John Sweat

I enjoyed that it was not ostentatious Very well done but on extra signs Like whole markers The pin flags are unnumbered! Everyone is supper polite Very few yells "in the hole!" The officials are unseen for the most part
Comment from : Ted Wandstrat

My friend went and he said it smelled like a farm Surprised you didn’t comment on that
Comment from : Derrick Pina

The things you wanted to see right in line with mine
Comment from : Derrick Pina

My tickets were for Sunday on April 2020 I had everything booked airfare rental car hotels from hawaii It usually falls on my birthday A family member of mine has annual tickets Unfortunately a worldwide pandemic stormed the nation It has been a lifelong dream to attend Lots of family life changing events in last 2 years gave me more perspective as it is a nice golf tournament
Comment from : Paul de Quiroz

Went 1st time in 97 on a Monday so saw the orginal course without many changes The biggest thing seeing the course in person is the greens huge undulations and they look like they are made of cement and painted green
Comment from : Squirreljam

Never been, family member works in golf and has been the last couple of years Can't wait for my first time, whenever it comes
Comment from : Matthew Thesier

What a great opportunity, one day, I would love to go
Comment from : Kevin Fraser

I went to my first masters when I was 6 I'm 25 now and was there on Wednesday I've been there a total of 6 times and each time it gets better! There is nothing like it!
Comment from : Josh Fadeley

I have been to many golf tournaments but nothing compares to The Masters It is the best run sporting event Also the most beautiful golf course It really is like Disneyland Can't wait to go back!
Comment from : Blake Robert

Could of made this about 2 minutes
Comment from : Orange Blue

Comment from : Tray Niners

sounds like the Chick-Fil-A of golf courses
Comment from : The Golf Clan

Phone booths with free calls anywhere in the world Called my Dad in Canada to get weather update as he is a Meteorologist

I've never been there but would very much like to go
Comment from : Robin Huigen

Augusta National Golf Club***brNot course
Comment from : Samuel Crow

I got to volunteer at the 2016 Ryder Cup Transportation Players I had were Fitzpatrick and Stenson So many porta potties So many Tents So many tents Had to pay, I think it was just north of $200 Never have been to Augusta My brother has been twice First time a practice round or two The second time was a Thursday, I think What is down there on 10 where Bubba was? It looks like a lot of area down there
Comment from : J L

The pro I use to work for (who went to The Masters for 25 years straight) said that the fairways where as hard as I-95 Did you have the same experience ?
Comment from : Martin Van Buren

I've never been there and have been applying on-line for practice day tickets I'll keep trying I live in North Carolina so its not a long drive
Comment from : JW Matney

Just went Twas amazing Got to take lots of high res photos of the place too Crazy to see how far 18 is from the clubhouse and just the whole layout of the place compared to what you see on tv
Comment from : Metal Man

Gnomes? That was the hot ticket item? What am I missing?brbrThanks for this in-person recap of the experience I'll keep living vicariously through the lucky winners that get to go!
Comment from : Mike Cline

Another cool thing about the parking situation, idk if you noticed this house, but there’s a couple that they’ve offered millions of dollars for the house They’ve continued to refuse and now their house sits in the middle of the parking grounds lol
Comment from : Tres Poss

Great video! This year was my first year and I too was there Monday You pretty much summed up my entire experience all in one video I'd like to add if I may how pleasant, professional and friendly the staff and volunteers are at Augusta National Growing up in the northeast US, I don't always get a "Good Morning" or "Have a great time out there!" from literally every person that day I would be walking past security guards or the cashiers in the concession areas and they would greet me when I wasn't even in their line to check out or I didn't event notice them because I was admiring all the surroundings that the Masters has to offer Some of my friends who have been there prior to my trip were genuinely happy for me that I was going I understand what they mean now I hope to get back there some day again and hope family or friends who haven't experienced it yet to join me to see their faces when they see it for the first time! it truly exceeds a golf lovers expectations!!
Comment from : Tom Lonergan

Nice take for first visit I live here Born here Well into my 20’s, we used to stand in proximity of course gates around lunch time on Mon-Wed Practice round days Those tickets are day passes only and are not souvenirs By lunchtime, folks who got there when gates opened that morning often left the course to make a tee time at a local course It never took more than 5-10 minutes of asking if we could have their badge before someone said … sure One year, I was impatient and offered someone $5 or $10 but just that once brHaven’t tried it in years but don’t see a reason it couldn’t be done now
Comment from : Lombard Fortson, III

For the lottery is it for only one ticket? Or can you buy more than one?
Comment from : TheGrinch

this year was the first time I've been, we were there on Tuesday and got rained out 3 hours in Sad day but got a lot of swag and made it there Thats what matters I will be back next year for sure
Comment from : Chris shipe

I have been in the lottery since they opened it up and have never gotten tickets
Comment from : Carl Paladino

never been, def want to go ive been trying for about 7 years and still havent gotten a chance
Comment from : Tom

My dad used to take me to practice rounds before there was a lottery for the tickets It was like walking on air The bent grass fairways just blew me away I am glad you had such a great experience
Comment from : John Wilkerson

They bought 200+ houses… an entire neighborhood Tore them all down to offer free parking I thought I saw you Monday coming out of the concession building near #8 tee
Comment from : Marty Bruce

I’m assuming that since the concessions are so reasonably priced, that must mean the merch is priced outrageously????
Comment from : Michael Parsons

Nice
Comment from : P Dub

Lived in middle Georgia for 4 years, and never got to go…but I’m still putting in for the lottery every year
Comment from : Michael Parsons

This year was my first year as well Went on Tuesday Play was suspended for the day at 10:55am Thankfully they have guaranteed us a chance to purchase tickets again for next year's Tuesday practice round Unbelievable place Every golfer must go and see this place if you ever have the chance Absolutely immaculate golf course It's a special place for sure
Comment from : Captain BigBird

That "wide open" space between 1 and 8 was originally intended to be a 19th hole to settle tied matches Thats why the bunkers frame the top of the hill so well
