United States Disc Golf Championship

We are currently looking for 1 regional qualifying event in each of the 8 PDGA regions. Qualifiers need to be PDGA sanctioned, but tier does not matter. We need big tournaments with multiple divisions so that as many people as possible get a chance to qualify.

Which tournaments do you think deserve consideration?

This was on good ol' Facebook

Be nice if Illinois had the PDGA Regional 7 spot...

[Tafe Hemler]

Of course, Bowling Green, KY.  It'd be great if the Adv. men winner won a spot!
Greater Peoria Open, always.  The BEST event in Illinois.

I'd be surprised to see a sanctioned event in Peoria this year. I have heard nothing about an A-tier and it seems the PFC BOD isn't interested in running sanctioned events.

I'd bet the GPO will be sanctioned

The Peoria Open does not meet the criteria for the event. 

[The Bogey Man]

I thought maybe the Milwaukee Open,

have not played in the Mad City Open but heard that was pretty good as well.

I dont think i have played Peroia. Richard Pryor is from there.

Whats the SRO in Wisconsin?

Standing Rocks Open.

[Fox Metro Discer]

I think SRO is a good choice as well. They always have a large number of entrants that are spread out into multiple large divisions.

The 2011 Illinois Tour is still being worked on. Hope to have it out later this month.

There is an event in Antioch on Jan 2nd

I have not heard from Peoria if there willl be an A-Tier this year.

Anyone from Discontinuum attending this. 83% sure i am attending this event.

after the mishap last year, I don't think it will be an A-Tier, but they will have a GPO, if sanctioned, I would be very suprised

why is that Bruce?   Somebody qualified at the GPO in 2009, so it must meet the criteria.

[Bruce Brakel]

"We need big tournaments with multiple divisions so that as many people as possible get a chance to qualify."

Traditionally the Peoria Open has limited the number of players and the number of divisions.  The 2011 USDGC is not like the USDGCs past.  You qualify based on shooting the most above your rating and they want to qualify players from the divisions that the GPO does not offer.

Started my year off in Antioch, Ill yesturday. Had fun at the course. Windy and cold in the front nine. Trees blocked the wind on the back nine, made it livable..

Channahon, Ill is next. Think Rockford, Ill is having the Artic Blast the following Sunday (Feb. 13)..
