Does PDGA sanctioning make a difference?

I am about to send off my sanctioning agreement for both Ransom and DC. I am just wondering if more people are willing to travel to play PDGA C-tier level events. The last 2 years we have had around 30 people in Ransom, and last year we proably had 30 people in Dodge. Not bad sized events for towns without an established disc golf community. Just wondering if PDGA sanctioning would make a difference in a persons decision to make the tirp?

Hole 11 in Ransom. That is a Roc, I hit an ace with that puppy at the AM worlds. Down Under hole 18.

You had to do some digging to find that old picture.

i found it at the PDGA online course directory at one of the sites listed for the ransom course. looks like a nice little park, hows it play score-wise?

Paul-

Don't let the trees fool you. The course is pretty open. The distance is what make the course hard. I set up 6 holes a block away that are pretty sweet. I great tunnel shot, probably 300 feet long and 15 feet wide (maybe). I also set up a hole that is over 500 feet long and only about 60 feet wide. There have been some big scores on it.

Cliff-

That is not a mini. It is a manhole. There is a cool underground escilator that takes you from hole to hole.

Jon has there the last 2 years. 2 years ago he was in a playoff for the title. I don't know if he knows about the tunnels?

He might have forgot about the tunnels, might have been thinking about happy thoughts.

I just didn't want Big Al to find me in alone in that dark tunnel.. that is why I let him win the playoff

I passed the test and sent off my sanctioning agreement. Looks like both Ransom and DC will be PDGA for sure.

Atleast I know 9 people will be influenced about going.

Does PDGA sanctioning make a difference?

Would you be more willing to travel to Western Kansas to play a PDGA C-tier?
