Looking for 2017 Next Generation Disc Golf? check this out.
WE ARE PROUD TO ANNOUNCE OUR NEXT GENERATION TOUR. A TOUR RUN BY PROFESSIONALS FOR AMATEURS. THE TOUR WILL CONSIST OF 12 SANCTIONED EVENTS FEATURING THREE A-TIERS INCLUDING THE FINAL IN DENVER, COLORADO.
Dave Feldberg has been touring the World for two decades playing in every type of disc golf event possible. He has also run very successful PDGA events ranging from C-tier to A-tier in 7 states and two countries.
His vision is to start to highlight amateur play while helping provide an arena of professionalism that has only been offered to professional players in Disc Golf. Consistency of format, media, spectators, unique prizes, overall point series, sponsorships, clinics, and quality courses.
“We need to start having a tour that provides the link between professional and amateur play”. Says Feldberg. “Allowing the amateur to be the feature of the event and learn about media and playing in front of crowds.”
The tour organized by Feldberg will feature professionals JohnE McCray (4 events), HB Clark (1 event), Tim Skellenger (1 event) as TD’s of six of the events. The others will be run by Feldberg himself.
The next Generation tour is a 12 event point series where the top prize is a free plane ticket to Europe to play disc golf in 2017 as well as the entry fee to the event selected by the winner. You will need to compete in 4 of the twelve events to qualify for the overall series. The tour will also be giving away more unique prizes such as entry fees to large events, PDGA memberships and other surprises. Feldberg will be working with companies in an effort to offer sponsorships to the overall top finishers in the series.
Every event has player packages that value over the entry fee! Also each event will have a collectors art stamp drawn by Synthya Whitaker. It will be an Animal series. The first one was an Arizona Bobcat. Preview of second event, it will be a California Fox. Each animal will represent the area the event is held.
