I do however see both side of the coin when it comes to payout.......there is added cash to an event which is in the form of lunch, ctps, ring of fires, etc . . . that stuff was purchased with money. The value of the event is obviously better when you add those factors in.

I was just wondering about the added cash to divisions. Who turns in results with just that? When you look at an event these days its really hard to determine who actually earn (cash) or (cash and prizes). Especially when you try to determine how much money was given per player at each event. I know of some TD's that inflate their disc prices (maybe b/c they own a business) and other TD/Clubs who keep them dirt cheap (which is good, but kind of hurts surrounding events b/c players complain that they received a champion disc for $12 at once place and $16 at another place).
I however sell them at events for $15.

The common question asked to me about my events is always added cash to divisions. I have had players less concerned about players packs, lunch, ctps, etc . . . *typically the pros*

So again what is the real value? When the SNPC is posted each year it usually ranks in the Top 10-20 PDGA events of the year, but not based on added cash value, but added cash/prize value. Doesn't mean that years SNPC was any good or less of value, just less added actual cash to the pro purse.

Just a thought question guys sorry for the rant.]]> Trackin01 General Discussion Thu, 16 May 2013 10:44:28 -0500 http://www.sndg.org/forum/read.php?2,240781,240781#msg-240781 http://www.sndg.org/forum/read.php?2,240781,240781#msg-240781 Eric Day General Discussion Wed, 15 May 2013 16:24:25 -0500 http://www.sndg.org/forum/read.php?2,240772,240772#msg-240772 http://www.sndg.org/forum/read.php?2,240772,240772#msg-240772

How cool is that? Pretty cool if you ask me. You can buy a disc on the first tee with a credit card and away you go.

Seats 1, 3, and 5 are up for grabs this year. I would like thank John Kittrell for there outstanding effort they gave the Southern Nationals these last two years and for his time and dedication to the BOD. I would also like thank Lloyd Wilkins who stepped in as a replacement, His dedication to disc golf gave us new life and really helped us get a bunch done in His short time on the Board.

Dustin if you are reading this, could you point me to the rule stating that you can not relocate your lie up to 1m from the OB line? Or anyone else for that matter? I just want to make sure and play this correctly in the future. In this case we played the lie both ways and asked the TD after the round.
