Chuck Kennedy replied to Dookville's discussion 'Am Cash Payouts at Tourneys!'

Chuck Kennedy replied to Dookville's discussion 'Am Cash Payouts at Tourneys!'

Based on typical retail-wholesale, the promoters made no more than 1/3 on the $50 entry fee to prize conversion. Let's say $1500. From what I understand, SoCal has course reservation fees in the $700-$1000 range per day. You didn't mention…

Paying cash prizes to Ams is one way to lose more on running a tournament.

sorry i never got back to the thread where i called you out. i really didn't mean to come across so harsh; i was talking about a couple specific cases. i know you get a bad rap sometimes, but i think you're very respectable and appreciate the unbiased logic that you bring to this site and, i'm sure, to your profession.

anyways, there's a discussion that's calling your name.

sincerely,

Glenn

At 9:25am on February 10, 2011, Nick said…: Hey Chuck, do you know if the PDGA is working on putting together some sort of amazing comprehensive disc golf app for android or iphone or both? I filled out a survey a while ago where I thought the PDGA was trying to get disc golfers' preferences for an app but I haven't heard anything about it since.
