no thank you. boring courses and horrible tee pads at all course except flip. but yet flip is a 40 min drive. Also with all the years its been held up there no improvement at all except new baskets last year I don't understand why people want to go up there when there are so many better course in the state. also it's the first year for the team to run a pro states, I like it he started small and grow from there on. and yes a little late in the year but he never said it will be that way every year

Crazy how people have short term memory. The past 2 years have been a disaster. All the Pro's complained about the TD and courses and before it even has a chance, some of you come in and start complaining. Sounds like a player problem, not a course or TD or whatever you want to conjur up to be the problem to come in on a forum to just complain. Not good for the sport and definitely not a good personal reflection. Guessing most of you don't care about either at this point.

This is an observation not a complaint. At Ludington, it was on Labor Day weekend and you could camp for cheap right next to or near Lake Michigan when the water was still warm and temperatures at night were reasonable. The last (2019) Ludington State Final event pulled 99 pros and I think many people treated it as both a vacation and a disc golf tournament bundled into one. Since it left Ludington, it's now strictly just a pro disc golf tournament and it doesn't seem to generate the same enthusiasm.

Actually if you look at the results you would see the open division had almost double the competitors as this year. Held at my home courses that are not state finals material. Thanks Jim, for seeing the truth in the matter. State finals need to be held at the best courses in the state. Maybe like vote for the course it should be held at.Just a thought! And just because i play in the MPO division don't mean i am a professional. I play less than MAtt wiles nowadays. Thanks again Craig, for you worthless opinion.
