What better way to learn how to direct tournaments then by the
PDGA themselves. I was invited to come down to the IDGC for just
that. Bob joined me. There were classes on online registration,
sponsorship, live scoring, etc. There were directors from all
over the U.S. It was awesome meeting so many. We did play a two
round tournament as well. It was ratings based, which I really
liked. It took age and gender out of the equation. You play with
others that are around the same rating you are. I thought it was
great. I was one of 10 in the red division (ratings 850-900) and
Bob was one of 4 in the green division. Bob isn't rated, so he
chose to play there. It was a great battle, but somehow I pulled
out the win. There was only 1 stroke between me and 2nd, 1 stroke
between him and 3rd and him between 4th that had a tie. It was
a very close contest for sure! Bob did really well on Steady Ed,
but ROCKED Warner and he won his division by a ton. I am excited
to say that after playing disc golf sine the mid 80's that Bob
is now a PDGA member! Yeah! We both learned a lot from this event
and played some good golf too with some really great folks!
