Seconding. Also would like to see something in Raleigh. NC in general.

I see what you did there.
Will you be either playing or volunteering this year?
2
Unfortunately not, but I’ve been playing the courses and they look great. Played sugaw today and looks like they’ve done a lot of work.

Seconded. Course looks great, real hard to lose a disc here now. Plus, the new hole 16 at Sugaw is so much more interesting too.
2
I miss parking my forehand. Lol 16 was a great hole for me I’ve been having a tougher time making birdie now. It is a fun hole though. What you think about some of the changes to kilbourne?

ATL HO or GTFO

Bring something up to Michigan please!

USWDGC will be there in September! Michigan also hosts the USADGC every June.

Not to mention the pro tour that happening the weekend of the July 6-8th at The Toboggan

DGLO this weekend, and Pro World Masters last year, but I agree. It'd be amazing to get Worlds here and actually see all the top names!

Id love to see one at Canaan in Rock Hill for singles.

Worlds should go back up to the Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania. Nockamixon, Jordan Creek, the new one that is supposed to be great at AGA Farms. I haven't been out to butter valley, but I hear that's great too. And Tinicum.

Probably should have mentioned this from the outset - you all have some great suggestions, push your local clubs to submit bids!

From past experience, how much does it cost a host club to run a major?
1
I've only been through one bidding process during my time on the Board so I don't want to provide a guesstimate that could be wildly off base. The best person to contact for budgeting or other questions related to the bid process would be Mike Downes, the PDGA's Director of Operations. He works closely with the groups bidding on Majors and is a great resource for clubs interested in submitting a bid.

Thanks, I was just curious. I'll pass on the info to my local clubs.

Someday, Austin...
Someday we will get our shit together and host a big deal tournament(s)

I wish New Zealand could host one of these. Maybe we will, one day.

I miss Swope :(
Swope 2.0 will be opened in 2020 just down the street.
I just don't understand why they didn't open the shelter there instead.
I'm convinced they pushed it because of the drugs that were being sold out of that parking lot off 16.
