Hey, my name is Joshua Hester. I am PDGA#64118, I have been playing disc golf for almost a decade and completely love it. I am now residing in Hartsville, SC and have recently been looking into buying land (7-10 acres) to build a private 9-hole course. I will eventually set-up a house and live on the land as-well. However, starting out, I will build the course, then add a pro-shop. What concerns me is if I should add the pro-shop. The course I will build eitherway, even if it is never opened to the public. In a 20 mile area, I have only 3 courses. All of which are lacking the quality I am used to (moved here from Charleston, SC). When I went on PDGA.com, I did a player search and it only showed 4 registered players in Hartsville SC. The four players were my wife, my son, my daughter and me. lol. However this concerned me about opening a pro-shop. I realize that many disc golfers never register with PDGA, but I at least expected to see 10-12 other members.
If you are in or near the Hartsville area, then let me hear some feedback, or if you have suggestions or comments. I do realize that online is the easiest way to go, however most companies like Innova, Discraft and Dynamic Disc are easier to get with a brick and mortar location. Innova according to their website will not take anymore "online only" stores. What would you suggest?
