Dan's First Masters

Monday, December 31, 2007 Comments

Reader Mike Fiechtner writes to give thanks, for, among things, Dan Jenkins' "The First Masters I Covered" piece.

I just wanted to let you know that I really appreciated reading your article on golfdigest.com and hearing about your first experience of the Masters. I'm still waiting for my first and I'm not sure I'll get to experience it but it was nice to hear your impressions and descriptions. I can't even imagine how beautiful it is there. It definitely looks amazing on TV and I'm sure it's even more beautiful in person. How long do you plan on covering the tournament? Seems like you should have some sort of record like Arnold Palmer's 50 Masters. You got him beat by 6! Thanks again for the nice article! Have a great day and God bless, Mike

Mike, Dan says thanks, that he'll cover the Masters until they tell him he can't, and maybe a couple after that.

For more on the Masters (we're sure we're not the only ones already looking forward to the first major) check out our Masters countdown area, prepared in conjunction with Masters.org and ESPN.com, where we're bringing back stories like Dan's.

Happy New Year! And good luck getting to Augusta in April!

To the editors,

I had to let you know how much I enjoyed Jim McLean's Triple X-Factor article.

Finally, Jim puts clarity on what are the natural body movements in the golf swing. There has been a lot of confusion lately on how the body should and shouldn't work. McLean is known for doing his research and reporting on it. Jim's teaching has been consistent for many years. His article provided simple insight into what naturally works. Unfortunately, McLean's X-Factor has been copied and watered-down over the years by people who don't truly understand it. I've experienced Golf BioDynamics at Doral in Miami and Dr. Rob Neal knows his stuff. Jim McLean and Dr. Neal do their research and present the information with extreme clarity. This was a great article!
