I too have just recently made Master, and I dont find it to be too bad. Just have to readjust to the greens. Now if you just want to hang out and play, and be a casual player, here is what you do. Start playing single stroke play practice rounds. In stroke play practice rounds, you get to pick your tees, green speed, wind speed,and you still get XPs for play. The plus is ,is that your scores wont be recorded or affect your avg. You can play all of the regular courses, from Olympic to Kiawah and have fun with out the head aches. So as long as you dont play ranked rounds, you can stay at Master forever. Some players frown at this , because they consider this to be sand bagging. Me ,I dont care because I too am a casual player. I dont play for credits, or play in tournaments. I just want to play the game and be left alone. So if you dont want to be elevated again, avoid playing in the ranked mode and you will be fine. Hope this helps. Play well and have fun.
