The reason why it is capped at 72 is because logistically it’s completely different than Big Island Open. Maui really only has 2 courses that are worthy of tournament play and 1 of those courses is no longer available due to being on private property that was affected by the fires. BIO this year has access to two ball golf courses that are side by side which allows them to split up Ams and Pros each day which is why they are able to have that many people. Maui only has the one course which is already hard to do with 72 due to crossing fairways etc. Last year Maui open had 95 and BIO had 108 so not too different. Unfortunately there are plenty of disc golfers that live here on Maui not to mention plenty of year long volunteers that don’t make it in and hopefully we can find a new location for a tournament quality course so maybe in the future more applicants will be possible but until then this is the option we have. Hope this answers your question adequately.
