Anyone that has read my posts knows how I feel about amateurs and whether they should get paid. They Don't! And I have heard it from many people why AMs should get paid. They are tired of the same old player packs, they don't want plastic they won't use etc etc etc. And I have heard argumemts about AMs feeling like they are subsidizing Pro's and visa versa.
So one of the things I like about disc golf is you can take it to any level you want. You can just play with friends, you can play for tags, you can play Sunday doubles, you can go to a tournament. You can play at ANY level you want to. And this got me to thinking. What about a High Stakes Doubles Tournament.
No shirts, no player packs, no divisions, no funny money, no trophies, JUST CASH!!!
Pick a partner, sign up and show us what you got. You win, you win big. You lose…well you don't win.
So that is what we are going to do. 30 team max, 80$ a team and yes you pay sign up fees, because the 80$ is going to prize money! Are we paying way down the list? Nope. This is tentative payout. And I say tentative because we are looking for sponsors that may add to the pot.
Places 4-10 get their money back…80$
3rd gets 200$
2nd gets 400$
1st place gets 800$
Thats right, you want the big bucks, you better bring your A+ game!
Hey Bob, 30 X 80 = 2400 where is the extra money going.
Well I have built in that we can "not sell out" and still do the same payout. If we sell out, the numbers go up. If we get a sponsor, the numbers go up. If Otter Brook finishes the back 9 in time for tourney and we can add more teams…you got it…The payout goes up!!!
So mark August 1st on your calendar, find a partner and come play High Stakes Doubles!!!
