Tournament Idea.... a challenge to the PGA
How about a head to head ball/disc matchup of the best of both sports. 18 holes of ball golf, 18 holes of disc. Lowest score wins it all.

Here's my fantasy line-up:

Ken Klimo
Nate Doss
Niko Lecastro
Feldburg

v.s.

VJ Sighn
Tiger Woods
Phil Michelson
Jim Fuyrk

Attract some big time sponsors, a tv network and bam!

Now let's make it happen!

What if you added a top senior player (masters or grandmasters for us, whatever is equivalent for them) and one or two top female players from each side too? Make it even better tv.

I guess I need to explain that the tournament would take place at a location that has a championship ball and disc golf course in close proximity. A good place would be Laurel Hill/Giles Run in Lorton Virginia- a 18 hole RTJ course within eyesight of one of the toughest courses you'll ever play.

What's your best score pro to pro at Giles? Just curious, I think Ian H. has it at 55.

I've only played there once for the tourney last year. Hovey won Open and beat me by a dozen. He beat me by 11 on the longs and only one stroke on short to long. I finished 6th in Open. He's 27 years younger than me.
