LETS GO TO THE MASTERS

[@sjgraci]

Augusta is the second largest city in Georgia. There are nearly 600.000 people here. We are fortunate to have some of the finest restaurants in the region: Abel Brown, Frog Hollow, Craft & Vine, Fuse, Becks, Finch & Fifth, Oliviana, Cucina 503, and Cadwalladers. Calvert's, Sheehan's, French Market Grill, Rae's, Luigi's, and T-Bones are Masters institutions. Columbia is bigger by 200,000 and Athens is smaller by 400,000 but they are college towns so they definitely have more of a party vibe. But, if you are looking for that it is definitely here, especially Masters Week. All you need to do is go downtown, the Hill Area, or along Washington Road to find the party: Stillwater Taproom, Hive, Arsenal Taproom, Soul Bar, Sky City, Metro, and countless others. You can even get your schwag signed by John Daly outside of Hooters! Plus, there are concerts like Rock For Dough, Major Rager, and Grand Ol' Rager. Columbia County and North Augusta, where many rent houses for the week, are always quiet and a little boring, but that is starting to change too. Augusta also has some of the best and affordable public golf courses in the region: Forest Hills, The River, Aiken Golf Club, Gordon Lakes, and Bartram Trail. Your Top Tip, "park close". To truly experience Masters, you need to be parked in Augusta. That said Columbia, an hour away, Athens, Atlanta, Charlotte, Charleston, and Savannah, all two hours away, are great towns if you can't find or afford accommodations during the week. But who wants to drive after being on the course all day? Pay up! It's worth it! Cheers Bruh!

[@7UpYours1234]

Thank you for sharing the day. You guys are wonderful ambassadors and fans of the game.

[@brycesellsaugusta6889]

Fun to see you all in the town I call home, it is a beautiful place, even when it isn't Masters week! Nice to see you guys playing The River Golf Club in North Augusta, SC as well! That is one of my favorite local courses. I hope you guys are enjoying your time!

[@DjDaveVA]

Dan was stuck at the airport because he couldn't get up :D

[@mikecallaghan2164]

Great fun. Enjoyed it immensely. Thanks Mark

[@randymahony8157]

Was Dan flying the plane? The plane looked a little low.

[@davidgriffiths9059]

I wished we had watched your videos before we went this year. Rush hour traffic around Atlanta was a pain! Would fly to Charlotte next time. Didn’t spoil the whole experience though. Played some great courses including The Reserve at Aiken. Columbia was great, can’t recommend The Blue Marlin restaurant more highly. Saw the Tiger eagle on 15 and then watched him and Phil practicing their chipping! Tommy Fleetwood’s caddie skimming the 16th then holing the putt. Great memories.

[@richardneel6953]

Ah Mark. Looked all over for you guys during the practice round to shake hands and get a pic with you. So disappointed I couldn't find you. This was my first trip to the Masters and it was an incredible experience. Keep doing what you're doing brah. Love your channel.

[@davidpegler6774]

Worth basing yourselves in Greenville, SC next year.

[@NicholsonNutters]

I’m so jealous. Thanks for the videos guys - hope you all have a blast.

[@RC.Time-Crawlers]

Great to see you guys hanging in the us .Wish I was there Enjoy be safe.👍

[@ronniefromOR]

Great job! Hope you guys keep having a blast!

[@Z06PSI]

Bartram trail right there in Augusta. Well Evans.

[@HoratioNelson78]

Another great vlog......thanks lads...enjoy

[@EdnaMillion.]

I've been once in 2007. Never to be forgotten experience.

[@mattfrench6393]

Question: even though you only have tickets to the practice days can you go to the YGT tent on competition days to watch all the action?

[@damon5133]

Curious what you thought of Columbia? I was there for Basic Training in the Army. Don’t recall a whole lot of fun of base. Enjoy the Masters!

[@jakegriffin3515]

I was there today as well! Too bad I didn’t run into you so I could say thank you for helping my golf game over the past two years! Best golf channel on KZbin 👍🏻

[@geordietoonforlife.1155]

I’m jealous it’s always been my dream to go to Augusta some 45+years now don’t think I’ll ever get there. Enjoy yourself lads. #yourlivingmydream.

[@seijikanagui7045]

Saw you guys there! Sitting behind 17th tee box on Tuesday's practice round. Enjoy the rest of your time man!

[@dlennertz]

Any chance you guys are going to make the trip up to north Georgia? Lots of great courses up in the metro Atlanta area.

[@valrico9759]

As always, fun video. Well done, Mark. You boys think it’s warm now how about a visit in July or August? Whew! Disgusta, Georgia!

[@stefanwauters349]

You guys are just bloody awsome. Absolutly love your videos.

[@glenburr6755]

I can’t believe I missed you guys. I was just to the left of the 17 tee box when Rory was teeing off! Was a fantastic day!

[@lukechassereau8917]

Mark if you guys are still in Columbia I can get you on Camden CC...a nice Donald Ross course.

[@DavidTwomey3]

Get up Dan! Well jealous of ye, cheers for the updates! Have to say I think tiger may do it this year, can't wait for it to start

[@drews1941]

Great video as always. The production quality is top shelf!

[@jackhalford3093]

Hi guys! Enjoying the vids so thanks for that! Was just wondering if you could give us an idea of total cost for the trip via your golf travel? I know there will be some variants in price ie car hire and hotels but just a general price? Thanks

[@HopkinsGolfUk]

Your driving past me in Greenville SC which would be a great place to stay as well. It was great to meet you guys last year at the Masters.

[@herbcat9]

Love the night to morning transition there Mark👌

[@Kridian01]

Side pan door transition @ 0:35 👍

[@terrymcgovern613]

Charlotte, my home town is 91 miles to Columbia, SC. Welcome to the Carolinas! BTW, some outstanding golf here and between Columbia......

[@jimmccaul1]

Loved last years vlogs guys , but adding Dan to the mix... it's going to be fantastic viewing this yr !

[@georgeclarke8137]

We stayed in Colombia Georgia. Quiet town. Dustin Johnson was born and raised in Colombia.

[@jeremychristensen7811]

Great stuff as always Mark! Thx

[@bpieszak]

live in columbia, this is awesome!!

[@tomboyd7990]

Best week of the year!!!!

[@jedimike118]

Man, yall came right by my house coming down I-20. about 3-4 miles from exit 44..

[@williamreitinger8978]

Been to the Masters two years in a row, nothing like it.

[@Alex_A96ESH]

Went on Tuesday tried to find you guys! :( however I did saw a Your golf travel booth right next to Augusta! Only didn’t see a #7 after the name.

[@paulfitzgerald887]

The best vids are with the 4 of you . Enjoy all of them , but get a laugh from watching you all together . Pod cast would be great 👍 . Also learnt a lot from you , being a new comer to the sport 👍👍

[@williamwest9172]

Hey Mark, I live in Fort Mill, SC in between Charlotte and Columbia. Hope you enjoy your time in SC and in Augusta. Cheers!!!

[@dannysmith8065]

Home town! Hope Charlotte treated you nice!

[@markhallett9264]

Went last year with you guys and am now kicking myself for not booking this year with YGT. 2019 baby.

[@gavaldo358]

My friend and I managed to polish a few Stella off at last years quite easily 🤪

[@pittgolfer1379]

This is the trip that I have always wanted to take. I live close to Oakmont, and I still think the masters is the best venue in golf.

[@michaelpatterson6987]

Y'all should come back to Charlotte sometime. There are some great courses in the area and Pinehurst is nearby as well.

[@martinwinstanley430]

Has dan arrived yet???

[@nicholaslyons8977]

Where are you guys playing while your here??

[@bdiddy8239]

If you’re from the States, how do you get tickets to the Masters?

[@StevenAlwine]

Columbia is a great city. Spent some time at Fort Jackson. College town, plenty of decent bars. Liberty Taproom in Columbia has a bananas Foster cheesecake that's to die for.

[@gary2mcdonald]

Sun cream!!!!!!!! rained all day Easter Monday and Tuesday course closed today again is summer ever coming to Co. Armagh still freezing.

[@marksims68]

Would love to go there, its thirty years since Sandy Lyle hit THAT bunker shot on 18 to win (and lets not forget the putt on 16 to bring him level with Mark Calcavecchia) and I'd love to see a european do that again. Imagine Rory blasting a nine iron from that very same spot on Sunday to win the green jacket. Its Masters week, Augusta is in bloom, nothing beats this.

[@thecallawaykid1763]

Mark Sims what a mizuno 7 iron iron out of the bunker... suits you!

[@thomasjones3045]

Do you want to know what would make me happier than anything else? A course vlog around Augusta...if only eh!?

[@joshuadanner3618]

You enjoying this “wonderful” weather we have here in Georgia!

[@mikebachman2198]

Ultra jealous!!! I'm gonna win the ticket lottery one of these years...

[@jkgjr8219]

Surreal seeing y’all in front of the grocery store I shop at...

[@shanewoolacott373]

Didn't realise you could just go to the masters, i still thought it was closed shop to,

[@SmealCo]

Wait, did you guys say that you only go to the practice rounds?

[@scotty_teee4226]

"I am playing some sort of golf tomorrow" 😂😂😂 i must go there one year!!!! Hope it was a ripper lads

[@ICUDOGG]

Have you ever thought about coming to America for any other tournaments? Maybe Bridgestone Invitational?

[@mailmanqcnc]

Bruh...i live in Charlotte...was funny hearing the nav giving directions on Billy Graham Pkwy lol. Come back and play some golf here...id love to play with you guys...me and coach against you and Rory 😂👍 Welcome from the Queen City👍⛳

[@Z06PSI]

Moving there next month. Lol. That is our home but we are in Hawaii now.

[@Jonnymemo38]

Great video boys. Very excited for the Masters this year. It's one of those mythical places that doesn't seem real. Looking forward to the Master week course vlogs! Why is Coach not using the G400 max? Surely he is fed up of playing his second shots from sand-dunes/wilderness/jungle/a villa roof? Get it in the bag Lockey, if I can hit fairways with it, anyone can!

[@jkgjr8219]

Y’all are misinformed on the ‘nothing to do in Augusta’...it’s not a tourist destination on a normal week but Master’s week this place is insane. Born and raised here, Masters week never gets old & is always a blast! Downtown is a great place. Y’all should stay here one year you won’t regret it! Cheers brah!

[@jkgjr8219]

John Edmonds Speak for urself. I don’t live in the ghetto. I always have a blast during Masters week. Sorry u feel different bud.

[@OWB-ml2ux]

Gosh! If I was going all that way (although I suppose it’s not far for you lot) I’d want to spend as much time at the Masters as possible. Surprising.

[@randallhooper7296]

Great course in Columbia called Cricken Tree.

[@ShotShySheriff]

How can anyone dislike this video. Great viewing!

[@jacobpoole2156]

I carry the ball 400 yards is that good?

[@Jon-yx3xc]

Who’s your picks for the masters then mr crossfield????

[@flatcapgolfer]

Who is bringing the Werthers?

[@manilafixedgear2312]

Always thought it was a closed shop, heard stories of having to have a "badge" that seemed to be handed down through generations.. Pretty certain I heard this on many a highlight show..

[@archnroo2]

I assume it was Dan that gave this a thumbs down 🤣🤣

[@MichaelFlagfeldt]

Hey Mark. was wondering how you would be able to identify your chair. does it have a number or something? Thanks Bruh

[@tomlang9177]

michael flagfeldt when you buy one it comes with a little card you can write information on and you stick it in a clear sleeve on the back

[@robingladstone5869]

Well jealous of you guys, have fun and bring me back a green masters paper cup please!

[@jezswallow9801]

OMG I'm SSSSSOOOOOOO JEALOUS!!!!

[@lesblair1775]

Welcome to the greatest place over the pond

[@Belmont148]

Lord have mercy. That’s some exhausting travel. I’ve just got to get up early Friday and drive 45 minutes to the gate from the house. 😎👍 Have fun muppets! I’ll look for you all if you are around on Friday. Welcome to my hometown, Cola, aka the Soda City, aka the hottest place on earth in August.

[@JonathanTaylor63]

Hi Mark, can you take your iphone into the masters? If yes can you film/ take photo's?

[@1988TheHitman]

Jonathan Taylor Your not allowed any mobiles at all.

[@yourgolftravel]

No phones brah. Cameras on practice days yes...for pics not video. But no phones at all times. I actually think it adds to the viewing experience as you're more immersed in the event rather than constantly looking at things through a lens or checking for texts! Cheers, Ray

[@danlindholm8840]

Lockey’s highlight of the day saved this Vlog otherwise it’s completely pointless vlogging the Masters with camera’s off limits 🙂🤘

[@CW_GOLF_]

Mark.. Next year I'm coming with you guys

[@adambucci9457]

Visit my friends at the "art bar" in Colombia

[@slicingit5742]

Oh how we missed you Matthew!!!!!!!

[@nellysanchez362]

Wow very impressive Vlog , Keep em coming ..

[@rcp2bTube]

"Where's Dan"? Probably at home weeping into his cobra grand-dad beret. :)

[@jackrudge1157]

What do you think of Ian Poulters new putting ideas

[@geoffreyobrien6381]

Regards to the champ, Paul Casey.

[@n3qdz]

Oh I’m sorry is Dan still at the airport waiting for his luggage? I seemed to have missed him in the filming.

[@colinwoodgate7297]

Quality 😎

[@AnthonyEspositoTheStallion]

CLT Airport is AWESOME, not too big, easy in & out !!!

[@EdnaMillion.]

There's a possibly apocryphal story that a Chinese or Japanese guy drove up Magnolia Lane on Masters Monday, took his golf bag out of the boot and presented his ticket that said "Practise Round", thinking it entitled him to play. I like to think it might be true. ;-)

[@bicketybam]

Don't blame Dan for not going to the "Tiger" Masters. I have been fast forwarding Sky through the pre covergae until they stop rambling on about Tiger. Then it suddenly says "Recording Ended". Pfft. At least I can see Fleetwood a bit during the first two rounds.

[@badmuppet6532]

Get up Dan

[@darrylrichardson7940]

Are you meeting up with Sophie Walker for a round later in the week guys.

[@BeingBornProductions]

Awesome video Mark! Fun and informative 👌 Enjoy the week!

[@ipanzerschrecku4732]

It cold be a mighty year with most of the top players in form and having won - hope I didn't just jinx it right there..

[@robertdoerr3028]

You were just in Charlotte!!! I live in Charlotte and would have enjoyed meeting the Muppets!

[@TRW072]

so you dont go to the tournament?

[@JamieBrooks179]

Why's lockey always in the back? ;@)

[@adamstubbs4376]

The group just ain't the same with Dan missing!!!

[@bdeheton6445]

I can't believe the lads in customs actually let you three in the country while carrying on like that about your invisible friend "Dan" who'd gone missing.
