what's the motivation for an 800+ player playing Novice? Getting crushed by 25 to 30 shots per round is not my idea of fun. Seems like it would just be a totally humiliating experience for me.
Likely in the 500's, the scraps of disc golf. :thmbup:I don't know what your rating is or would be.
I am the scraps as you call it.
I don't, and that was never what I was arguing. It would be nice, however, to compete with others similar to myself. That's what I thought the Novice division was - actual novice players competing against one another. Feel like a fool for ever thinking that :doh:Then why exactly do you deserve to win anything?

I think the moderator can lock this thread up now as it has more than answered my questions. The past week I've received quite an education thanks to many posters on here and I'd like to thank each and every one of them for the help. I apologize if anyone thought I was attacking them personally as that was never my intention. Again, thanks for the education.

Thanks for the replies. I just don't get why someone with a few years experience, that has played and competed in Rec several events, and earned a rating of 810 or 825 or 840 or whatever would want to drop back to play Novice events. And it's not about me expecting to compete with them, its why would they want to compete at the lowest level? What do they expect to get out of it? Other than kicking everyone's butt.
And txmxer, No I'm not 60 but maybe one day I'll make it that far. 60 is my good luck or good karma number.
One thing you have to contend with as a low rated player at tournaments is a sentiment from some more skilled players that you shouldn't be there.
