re: If you played a 1 man scramble at the Masters, would you still finish dead last?

I doubt there is anyone here who would break 90(maybe a couple who would break 100) at Augusta when set up for the Masters. Even the college players.

I disagree, but even if that were the case a scramble is so different and putting is so much easier. I think almost every professional golfer would win if they got to scramble themselves. As for me this is my outlook in a scramble:

1 - par/bogey
2 - birdie/par
3 - birdie/par
4 - par/bogey
5 - par/bogey
6 - par
7 - birdie/par/bogey
8 - birdie/par
9 - par/bogey
10 - birdie/par
11 - par/bogey
12 - birdie/par/bogey/double
13 - birdie/par
14 - birdie/par/bogey
15 - birdie/par/bogey
16 - birdie/par
17 - par/bogey
18 - par/bogey

So pretty much worst case scenario I shoot 84 in a scramble.

Having two shots takes so many nerves away. If I just get one shot per hole, it's a completely different story.

THis is fricking retarded.

This a one-man scramble. A good golfer should break 80 at Augusta. That is an absolutely absurd advantage. You never hit hazards, you never hit OB, you know the read and speed of every putt, you can attack holes if your first shot is good and/or safe. I rarely hit driver even though I kill it because its not consistently straight. I could hit 3-iron down the fairway every hole and then crank a driver. I bet half of those would be good enough to play.

A normal course, I'd easily be under par with that after practicing for a couple weeks and getting my swing back.
