POY- Shultz or Jenkins
ROY- KSW, AO, or Geoff

POY - I hope that Avery wins, but I think that Barry will end up with the title

ROY - I want Bennett to win, but that's because I know him, but its tough call between the three.  A few stats on the three:
           Rating     Winnings   Cashing %    Events Played       Avg. Cash
Geoff    1003       $7,062      87.5%              40                  $176.55

Kim       1014       $6,073      100%               16                 $379.56

Adam     1004      $6,502       83.9%             31                  $209.74

Bennett has won the most $$ and played the most events, but KSW has the highest rating and although he hasn't played many events, when he plays he does very well.

It's basically a popularity contest.  Everyone who knows Geoff likes him.  He gets my vote.  But I don't get a vote.

dont forget, AO won a A-tier whereas the others have yet to win something that large, eh?

sad - it is a popularity contest and they will try to back it up with drivel.

WHY DONT WE DO OUR OWN VOTE FOR POY & ROY?
I DONT KNOW HOW TO MAKE A POLL ON THE FORUM
OR I WOULD.

[Bruce Brakel]

If AO and Geoff are both Discraft sponsored pros, the other guy wins it.  Innova owns too many of the votes to let a Discrafdt guy get it. 

[DiscGolfSchodt]

all three are sponsored by Discraft

voting for Avery for player of the year would be like when other players like Karl Malone and Charles Barkley would win the MVP over Jordan...just cuz we want somebody else to win it for a change.  Barry finished outside the top 5 once the entire year.  Look how many wins he had, it blows away Avery.  Avery did win the Players Cup and finished ahead of Barry at Worlds which makes him 2nd in the running in my opinion.  But Barry dominated at USDGC and won the points deal for the National Tour events.
