    What would they really shoot?

    Watching PGA events week after week is so impressive, but I always wonder, what would these guys shoot if they had no cameras, marshalls, fans and grandstands finding or keeping their ball in play?

    Many of these guys would lose 2 or 3 balls per round off the tee because it is next to impossible to find your ball 300+ yards away in the thick rough.

    One of these days when I win the Powerball an have $100Million to spare, I will host a tourney, $25M to the winner, but they have to carry their own clubs, rake their own bunkers, find their own ball, read their own greens, calculate their own yardages etc etc... wonder who will have the guts to show and play???

    That's a pretty interesting "showerthought".....does make you wonder, doesn't it?

    Another interesting one would be to get the pros to play off the rack clubs just like the rest of us (except the tinkerers). Saw a video the other day of Peter Finch and Rick Shiels playing with an assortment of used clubs they got with a fixed budget - pretty interesting --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AwiXRZDxVM

    Would probably be more interesting to see than some games on tv nowadays
