Hi Rich and a warm welcome to DPS. You got some great shots from the world championships. I love the Jim Furyk one but all of them are excellent. Well done and I'll be watching to see more of your great work. Thank you for sharing these with us. Enjoy your time here and have fun.

Dave.

Excellent shots. I too am a Furyk fan...and his golf swing should remind us all that there is never just one way to do something well.

Default Great Shots

Sherwood is a beautiful course! Where you there in a professional capacity? In not, what lenses were you allowed to bring in. Most professional events seem to have problems with my 70-200 2.8l.

Thanks for the warm welcome and love on the pics. Sherwood is gorgeous. I was not there on a professional capacity. But I did have a members pass borrowed from a member and that opens up doors for you literally. I shot all of these shots with a Nikon 80-400mm VR. it's a long lens on a cropped sensor. But not TOO big to draw too much attention and shoot handheld.
