I just think that there are ways to grow the pro field. And to do so you need to let these 970 rated players believe that they have a chance of at least getting $10 back at the end of the weekend. By only paying the top 35 -45%, we are alienating a lot of good players who feel that they have no chance to cash. Just think of how many people might step up and play pro, or play these NT events if they had some sort of hope that they might just play well enough to cash. I think we would see a lot more people interested in playing these events.
Maybe not?? Maybe I'm way off. I just think we need to find a way to encourage pro participation and to get lots more of these higher rated ams to test the pro waters. I'd like to see these PDGA events get to the point where we don't have am divisions at NT events or A tier events.
