patrick, im not sure you get what states is all about for most people. ludington is destination type disc golf, its a coastal vacation town that people seek out and a town that offers plenty of lodging at various prices. for many people this is the only time of year they get to play these fantastic courses. sure there are great courses in the detroit/ann arbor area but most people get to play those all the time and out of towners might not want to deal with hookers knocking on their motel door. lansing has the awesome burchfield courses but aside from that theres nothing special. the grand rapids area has some nice courses but i wouldnt really call the area special like ludington. traverse city is the only other town, really only has the 3 courses but is a cool town. ludington is just perfect for the event, it has the capacity to support 400 disc golfers for both playing and lodging. camping with your buddies in northern michigan, playing some of the best courses in the state with occasional views overlooking lake michigan, and enjoying some great competition. maybe im on my own here but i get a different feeling when i pull into mason county park or onto bills property at flip than i do when i pull into hudson mills or anywhere else for that matter. as soon as i leave ludington i want to go back and i cant possibly imagine a reason to move it. not to mention i think a lot of the work goes into these courses just for states and many of the people who run the tourney are from the area, someone correct me if im wrong on that one.
