Starting in 2005..I suggest only $1 of each AM's money go towards the AM Tournament and the other $1 goes into the SN Operating Fund.

Maybe charge the AM's $1 and send it to the Am Championship and raise the fee on Pro's to $3...and send it all to Pro Championship. :D

FYI:

some of that money (about 120k annual) is salaries and
"consultant fees" (for three individuals)

as well as debacles such as giving 50,000$ to a sports marketing firm
that only came up with hippie candy bars for "sponsorships"

hmmm, but then they will have to spend another $25k to exit the
earth momma candy bar agreement with SportsLoop. (exit clause)

serious dumb(_!_) factor, imho.]]> exPDGA SN Board of Directors Mon, 28 Mar 2005 12:25:14 -0600 http://www.sndg.org/forum/read.php?4,37204,41079#msg-41079 http://www.sndg.org/forum/read.php?4,37204,41079#msg-41079 > eventually start going back to the Pro Payout

You have the wrong tour. You want the PDGA. This is exactly the kind of thing that they do.

The only problem I ever encounterd was bad weather. . like they have control over Mother Nature.

I am sure Gary and the Memphis crew will make this one another in a long line of memoral events.

I am looking forward to this weekend. . . haven't got to play in a couple of weeks, can't wait for the two minute warning. . .

This is one great incentive to the Host of the event to make it better.

I feel the Southern National Pro/Am Tour is heading in the right direction, thanks largely in part to these forums.

i am thinking, lets have more CTPs than anyone ever has. i say, if you are the 4th to resgister on saturday, you win your entry fee. i also think, is that number right? does brad do good cifferin?

i mean really brad. is this a perception test.

how do you earn a living?

im with nancy, five deep is good. sounds like it could be done. memphis is always the best. with all that money. who knows. could be done like no other ever has. i would like to suggest that the TD for the am tournament have their expenses paid. in full. i mean everything. and then some. i would also suggest some type of compensation for Danny and his family. Bud Hill is the absolute best, bar none.

Hell $6000 is 20 baskets at $300 each. What are you going to do...pay 5 deep baskets to all divisions? I think that $3000 should be plenty for the AM Tournament to operate on and still give out great prizes because you havent figured in your entry fee into those numbers.

Money should be built up into the bank and eventually start going back to the Pro Payout of the Championship, or some sort of contingency fund, all sorts of things you could do if you had the money. $3000 a year adds up quick. In 3 years you could start adding $2000 to the Pro Payout every year. I mean in other threads people have been complaining about not being able to give out rule books to AM players. Rule books on the PDGA store are $3 each.

How many AMs are going to be at the Tournament? 150 maybe?? That's $450. If you have $6000 to work with, whats the problem?? Why are we supposedly so cash strapped we can't provide rules books? Also if you want to carry it out further...why the hell would Advanced Players need a rule book? So lets say 100 AMs....now we are down to $300.

People arent thinking about the money and what can and can't be done with it in my opinion.

This is all advice from an AM player. ME
