    I'd like to see a tournament that requires everyone to use starter clubs, and starter balls

    makes for the fairest playing field

    I thought this too, at first, but it is not the case for legends.  The fairway cannot be hit on some of the longer holes using starter equipment.  Especially in a head wind situation.  

    WGT did set one up ( http://www.wgt.com/forums/t/184092.aspx).  Everyone started from the same (shorter) tee, however, it had very limited group of participants (first come/first serve - I think).  If they would broaden the number of participants I think it would be a great idea, and I hope they do it again soon!

    Several have been started in the Community Tournament section of this forum, also country clubs run them. The distance to the fairway problem can be overcome by playing off the front tees in practice mode.
