    Nope, never announced the Masters. Had an offer to do it in early 2010 but it was recinded 2 weeks later. My point of contact told me that the Chief Judge had some beef with me and asked me, by way of courtesy, if I was willing to recommend someone else in place of me. I recommended Tyler Boyd to announce alongside Tadd Schreiber. Tadd hung up the mic several years while Tyler continues to work the Masters to this day.

    Nearest major city is Tallahassee. Plenty to chose from there, either the traditional hotel route or AirBnB

    No worries. It all boils down to how best we represent the sport in the future and the whole metric/imperial deal is very much part of that discussion.
  25. TonyLightfoot
    If you are in doubt there's always a graphic in the top left corner prior to each pass with all of that info - metric, feet and even rope color.
