Why do trans women have to provide their testosterone levels to play gender protected divisions, but age protected players don't have to provide their birth certificates?
Necro bump, but I've been running a birdie pot with my league for years. I pick certain holes (3 holes for Int. and below, 4 for Adv., and 6 for Open) and if you birdie those specific holes you win the birdie pot. It builds up just like the ace pot. Seems to be pretty popular.
As a tournament director for a couple of B-tiers and an upcoming Silver Series event, if a player got up in my face after a ruling and threatened me, I'm done TDing. We are volunteers. We give up our time to provide a service to the community and I don't want to have it spent getting yelled at...
Ian also made note of North Boundary park outside of Pittsburgh hosting the Butler County Disc Golf Class as a Silver Series giving Toboggan a run for its money. It's been quite a few years since I played Toboggan, but I feel like NoBo is steeper and has quite a bit more elevation. Just...
So, if a player is lining up a putt and gets into their stance, am I loudly allowed to announce that they are now on the clock without a courtesy warning for distracting them? :popcorn:
Sorry. You were correct. He aced a par 4, but the scorekeeper thought it was a par 3, so he hit the minus sign twice and called it a day. But my point still stands, why didn't the player ever check his score? The scores are up online. Even if he didn't get to check it before the scorekeeper...
Sounds like it is the player's fault for not checking their scorecard and immediately going to the TD to get it fixed. How do you not notice that there is an ace on your scorecard when you know for a fact that you didn't get an ace? Annoying that the scorekeeper submitted the round right away...
I've been running a sanctioned league for 6 years now and love it. #1 biggest advantage of running a sanctioned league is you get complementary insurance.
I also find it much easier running a sanctioned league than unsanctioned due to PDGA live scoring. People keep track of their scores on...
After the Elite Series schedule was released last year (NT and DTPT), the PDGA opened up bids for A-tier events. Looking at the schedule, there was a perfect gap between Green Mountain Championship and Music City Open for Pittsburgh to fit in our A-tier and get a bunch of the travelling pros...
I'm curious as to what other TD's experiences have been with the DGPT. They did us dirty last year and I vowed never to run a DGPT event because of this experience. Now that our bid for an NT isn't going to happen, the PDGA is pushing us toward a silver series event. I'm wondering if I'm just...
We had a feeling that our traditional 72 person tournament would fill quickly, so we broke it out to two days splitting the divisions and bumped it up to 144. It sold out in 70 seconds. In 5 minutes we had a 90 person deep waitlist.
I would love to see the PDGA allow us to do lotteries. Let...
I assume Paul is planning to donate all proceeds from his highest-rated-round-ever disc and his 1050 disc and any other discs that have sold with his name on it in relation to rating?
I'm not going to lie. We picked the PFDO date on when the pros should be swinging through between Ledgestone and MVP. The other problem with running the tournament earlier in the year is that we just get hammered with rain until June or July. Running larger scale events on our courses tends...
Losing was probably the wrong word. Lets say the average disc golfer has $500 of disposable income. With no chance of cashing because out of town ringers come in, they can play a maximum of 10, $50 tournaments and then they are done for the year. If the ringers don't come to town and the local...
