I just moved up from Tour Pro to Master last week and ive tried not to get too ahead of myself at the moment....first of all you're probably getting decent at the game simply because you advanced, thats for sure. As a tour pro, all my equip was Raptors,and used them for the beginning stages of Master.Im comfortable with them but obviously you realize you need a stronger arsenal. My 1st purchase and treat when I was able to level up was the Ping G10 8.0. Im working it in slowly but surely,but you must get use to the meter, and u will,simply because you need that length on some of these courses. When 1st using the new driver, I saw alot of places on these courses that I had never seen before....lol...not alot of fun. I also know that im going to eventually half to upgrade to a better iron set.
Having the best putter that you can get is a must in my opinion....As far as changes in the courses, they are everywhere, greens, tees etc. etc.
Im not really a technician here, I play by feel,the main advice I can give from my standpoint is just the way I'm doing, trail and error.
Eventually if I stick with it here and time allows me, I might make legend and so will you.
Reaching the upper echelons of Legends for the both of us though is going to depend on how much work we're willing to put in and also a little thing called talent helps a great deal to say the least....
Good Luck to Ya.......Ben
