Why should the best be available to legends only???? In real golf all equipment is available to EVERYONE. It's up to the individual whether they want to buy it or not. Is Phil Mickleson better than you or me because he uses better equipment than we do? No. Does he hit longer drives than you or me becasue us uses better equipment? No. Is his short game better than yours and mine because he uses better equipment? No. Is he overall a better player because he is more skillful with the same equipment? Yes.
So legends, are you legends because you have better equipment than everyone else, or are you better because you are more skillful? Some posts from X152nnnn spring to mind here!!!
If you want to be the best, then prove you're the best on equal terms. Those lesser ranked players will soon move up to legend as well; will you still be complaining about them then??? Will you be able to beat them then??? Yes, I know your tees are further back, but rather than complaining, use your skill to get close with your approach shots and putting. If you do that then you will still be competitive, and if you're as good as you're meant to be, then you will still be winning (and not whinning!) most of the time.
