Players Pack
Disc Raptor (might be one of the coolest new disc golf items)

Exact player pack costs will be taken out of the entry fee, nothing more! Our goal is to keep those costs around $15-20 per event. In the event our costs are less, the difference will be put into payouts.

Player Pack Opt Out
We're going to try something new this year and give all amateur players the option to opt out of a players pack for a $15 discount off their entry fee!
