Dynamic Discs BYOP (Bring-Your-Own-Partner) Doubles Template

Dynamic Discs BYOP Doubles are built to accommodate players who want to play competitively without the expense, stress, scheduling conflicts or intimidation of larger tournaments. These events allow you to play at your own convenience between the times allotted for each event. Dynamic Discs BYOP Doubles allow players to play multiple times with each entry. Teams may play in any division they qualify for based on PDGA rating and cash requirements. In most cases these events are on an 18-hole layout and all divisions play the same layout unless otherwise specified. The hours vary, but most events allow competitors to tee off anytime from 8AM-3PM during the winter months and 9AM-6PM during the majority of Daylight Savings Time. Location, course difficulty, and time of year are the deciding factors and are subject to change from week to week.

The cost per Doubles Team is $30.00 for Amateur (merchandise winnings) Divisions and $40.00 for Pro (cash winnings) Divisions. An optional Ace Pot is available for an additional $10.00 per team. The ace pot which accompanies each event rolls over to the next BYOP Doubles event if an eligible hole-in-one is not hit. Once the ace pot grows to $1,500.00, it is capped and a back-up ace pot begins. Only participating teams who paid the optional $10.00 at each event are eligible for ace payout in the instance they hit a hole-in-one.


Any person may compete in a Dynamic Discs BYOP (Bring-Your-Own-Partner) Doubles event. Competitors DO NOT need to be current PDGA members to register. Participants are eligible to compete in any division for which they qualify based on age, rating, gender and class (professional or amateur based on PDGA guidelines). Dynamic Discs BYOP Doubles events do not award trophies nor do they offer a player’s package. Dynamic Discs BYOP Doubles events offer 100% Payout to all divisions.
