In my case it is because it is 2500 miles away from me and thereby i am less familiar.

What would be more interesting to me is to know how many people are rated 1000 or better out of people that play disc golf regularly. Maybe you'd come up with close to the same numbers?
The stats look up defaults to current year 2018. So I'm guessing that means players with active memberships???
Active memberships who have officially recorded a tournament in 2018, to be exact. The stats page is primarily there to count points. No points, even if active, no reason to be listed on that page.

What do they put in the drinking water in California? I want some of that.
But seriously, are the courses played that much different than the other states, or promotion of the sport. Any ideas why they have 3 times the 1,000 rated players.
Perfect weather basically year round.
They have more people, more courses, and the best weather...you can get a lot more good practice in year round in Cali than you can here in Wisconsin, that's for sure. More better players helps to push ratings up a bit over time.
The numbers are already so small as to be statistically unreliable. Except for California, 1 or 2 players moving from one state to another will significantly change the percentages.
Further filtering the 1000-rated players, by recent tournaments or whatever, will make them more so.
Which I guess doesn't matter, in that it's all a curiosity.

Duh the stats are already what I asked for "percent of 1000 rated players out of all that play". I thought it was the general population which would be irrelevant really.
One of the California 1000 rated players is Nikko Locastro. I don't know him personally, but he's in St. Louis A LOT for somebody that lives in California. I guess his mail lives in California?

any chance a lot of their hs/colleges do disc golf? also maybe they build off each other out there. 2 or 3 hit the pros do local clinics help set up 6-9 become pros etc etc

Here I'm wondering how many of the players listed as "Californians" moved there from other states. Are the players sorted by where their home addresses are now or where they grew up and started playing disc golf?
