IIRC they won't post tournaments now until they have their money. This is a change from previous policies.

They've done been paid, or I wouldn't have said anything.
Vibram Disc Golf, Ledgestone Insurance, Paragon and Whirld Sports are all cool. Real cool.

I might be done sanctioning events.  PDGA pisses me off way to much. 
I'm surprised someone actually answered the phone today.  Had to pretty much beg and plead with Dave Gentry to get my $10 refunded for my officials exam.

Disc golf clubs should still get at least 5 free tests. How does the PDGA expect clubs to want to promote the PDGA when they take away? What's next? I can see the kitty of money they are trying to get but I hope it backfires! I refuse to pay the $10. We need a stand on this one in my opinion.

That's BS that you had to plead Dana. Even on the article on their website, they say the fee will be waived if you're a 2011 TD. Tournaments coming up in the next few weeks and months aren't going to any publicity. Is anyone really taking advantage of the system that they have to change it?
I need to be consistent....

Speaking of the Officials Exam ...  From the PDGA Pro Shop FAQ (http://www.pdgastore.com/Qstore/Qstore.cgi?CMD=011&PROD=1293694256)

Q: Who has to take the PDGA Certified Officials Exam?
A: Tournament Directors of PDGA Sanctioned events are required to be a Certified Official. Starting in 2011 passing the Official's Exam is now required for all amateurs and professional competitors playing in a National Tour Elite Series or PDGA Major event.

Looking at the list of Major events I see both Pro and Am Worlds, so all World's players must pass the exam. Time to start looking over the rules.
