TOUR DETAILS
The budget for this tour is coming from three main sources. I am providing 20% from my own pocket, about $15,000. Corporate incentive based sponsorship that relates directly to how many courses I play will provide about $20,000. The sale or trade of merchandise that either I buy at wholesale or is donated by clubs, companies or individuals should provide about $30,000. If anyone has any questions about the financials of the tour I encourage them to contact me directly. The tour route will be worked out and published by the end of February. Please keep in mind that this is a three year effort, these projected numbers are a shoestring budget with no hotel expenses, the tour will need all the help it can get, and so far the disc golf community has been extremely supportive.

The Play Em All Tour is for the Disc Golf community. My way of saying thank you to the sport that has given and taught me so much over the years. My hope is that by the time it is over the sport might grow just a little because of the tour. “upshot”

I met Steady Ed while I was going to school at CSU Monterey Bay. He designed the first course on the campus (Cypress) back in 1998 while I was a freshman. He gave a lecture on disc golf in early 1999 and gave all those in attendance a “Blunt” Putt which I still have to this day. Everyone then went out and played the course with our new disc.
