If you are trying to say that the dubai desert classic isn`t smaller than the masters,you need to do some research.
I hardly think that the Dubai Desert Classic is a small tournament. First of all , the first place finisher takes home over $400,000. And then, since the players have to qualify just to get into the tournament, you can't say that there is a lack of competition at that tournament. Smaller than the Master's? Yes. A small tournament? No. Obviously, you need to do some research.
I think a small tournament might be something at Colbert Hills.
As long as the 1st place at Pratt Ice Bowl took home $320 you are correct.
I really don't want to dwell on this any longer, but Dubai is one of the richest cities in the world, I wouldn't think they would play host to many small professional golf tournaments either.

The smaller tournaments pay him not just to do good, but simply to play in the tournament. It is a smart move knowing that if Tiger shows, most of the other top golfers will too. It would be like Glass Blown paying Ken Climo $300 of the added cash just to come and promote attendence...

Speaking of Pratt And Smitty and Eric Well...seems like they got whupped last year at Pratt I guess they weren`t baggin that day! I can`t wait for Tiger (I mean Kenny) to come to a little tourney in Kansas!

Josh, since you brought this thread out of the dust and braved standing up to the sandbagging detection formula, I thought I'd check it out and see how the process I suggested actually works. I chose you.
The division we are discussing is the recreational division(sometimes called novice on the KDGA tour). You played 13 events on the tour last year. The glass blown open did not have an rec. division, so we can't see how well you did in rec for that tourney.
Out of 12 tournaments, there were 12 instances in which you did or would have cashed in recreational. The first tournament got you 6 of 15. You were never below 4th place after that, including finishing the season with 4 2nds and 3 wins, including one PDGA event winning intermediate. There were 4 times you cashed or would have cashed in the intermediate division.
Using the formula, we take 100% times 4 = 400%. Then we take 33.3% (4 of 12) times 3 and get 100%. Then we take 25% (3 of 12) times 3 to get 75%. We add 400 to 100 and 75 to get 575% and then we divide by 6 to arrive at the score of 96%
Not only does this formula show that you have been playing the wrong division, but that you might be one of the WORST SANDBAGGERS OF ALL TIME. Granted, last year was your first on the tour, but this year is not. Plus, your ability is much higher now than it was earlier in the season last year.
While your PDGA ratings may be lagging behind your actual skill, you might soon think about playing in advanced. The thought of playing rec. shouldn't even be a question, in my opinion. Recreational division is for players who are new to the game, those who play extremely infrequently, or who lack your athletic ability. While winning a time or two in other divisions doesn't necessarily mean it is time to move up, I think it is so for the rec. division. Many players don't even start with playing rec. I know I didn't. I played am2 for a year, did not win once, and then it was time to move it up to advanced. I know that I'm on the donation side of this formula, but seriously, nobody should be repeatedly winning the rec. division. It just isn't fair to the less talented players. Unlike some of us, these players may be unlikely to keep playing if getting whupped by the sandbaggers is something they can count on when playing tournaments.
spending that much time looking at someone else's scores, placing, and cashing makes you a 96% teabagger!
