Masters merchandise: Gnomes, belts, hats, head covers, more at Augusta National

AUGUSTA, Ga. — The line to get in to the Masters Golf Shop can be intimidating.

I braved it on Tuesday afternoon and a patron who was in shouting distance behind me summed up the sentiment of many Masters patrons: “I don’t know if I’ll ever be back so I better go now.”

I hope that guy loaded up on quarter zips, ball caps and divot tools with the iconic Masters logo to last a lifetime. It took about 25 minutes to weave through the stanchions and enter the giant mall of merchandise. The gnomes were long gone. Even the gnome T-shirt was sold out for the day. But I found a golf shirt I liked, grabbed this year’s 1,000-piece puzzle for my wife, got a Masters stuffed-animal and pullover for my daughter and fulfilled a few special requests from friends. If I stayed any longer, I might need to apply for a second mortgage.

Here are some pics of some of the items for sale and gear purchased by those of us who were lucky enough to shop until we dropped at the best merchandise shop in golf.
