Eagerly awaiting Bill Ackman's 300 page expose.

My two cents: I think it's in the sport's best interest if we support the PDGA's growth as an organization with more access to money and influence. All of these regional groups attract dollars that would have otherwise gone to the PDGA, and we currently have no organizations with enough...

Hyland is my 2nd favorite Massachusetts course after Maple Hill, but I wouldn't adjust your schedule to get there when the brewery is open. With all the elite breweries in New England, I'm not sure if Pioneer would make a top-50 list. If this is a beer trip, I assume you've got the Vermont...

I love the Summit for short anhyzers and the VP for short Hyzers, but don't like any of the Vibram discs as much as a Wizard for "normal" putter driving. The Ridge is closest, but fades more and doesn't glide as much. I'll reiterate though that I do really like the two Vibram "utility" putters...

Thanks everyone who posted ideas here. I hijacked this info for my own Charlotte trip. Enjoyed every course I played, including Renny, Hornet's Nest, Bailey, Bradford, and Richmond Hill over in Asheville. Surprised that Renny wasn't among the recommended courses in this thread - I thought it...

My question is about Vibram's overall strategy. For the big two, the marketing/brand image strategy seems to mostly be sponsoring the best players so that new players see top pros throwing their discs. Vibram potentially has access to orders of magnitude more money, but hasn't sponsored...

So are we there yet?:confused:

I agree Pleasant Hill has the perfect location in a densely populated area with not a lot of other viable disc golf property available nearby. I think it's just an average course but location trumps that. If they raised their price and deterred a few players, it may make the course more...

Any business that's fun to run and a dream of many people to own is not going to pay very well. Maybe if you buy up the very best DG land in a developed area, you can sell it to billionaires who would have bought pro football teams for prestige in a previous generation. That's assuming disc golf...

Now we will need a thread for glaring omission in the top 5 :)

I thought you needed 5 propagators for the round to be rated at all. If my lower division has a unique layout and only 3 or 4 propagators, will my round be rated?

I recently entered a tourney with 74 baggers in my division. I took 75th, but excluding the sand baggers, I won it.

Maple Hill is my favorite. After that I think I'd go #2 Blueberry Hill and #3 Tyler Park.

I don't have a question, but thanks for continuing to host these shows. I think they're getting better and better over time.

If disc golf is your only source of income, imagine how tough it would be to sustain an injury and basically not make any money during an off year like this. Do these guys have health insurance? If disc golf ever blows up into a big sport, I hope the players in that era will take it upon...
