It has been requested that maybe I can help some local players with decisions on upcoming tournaments, both SN and PDGA

So for those interested here is a list of 2009 tournaments, mostly within a reasonable driving distance, that you might consider attending (PDGA membership is required for A tiers & NTs - membership will save $10 on entry to other tiers)

if you have any questions about a tournament or need a suggestion on which tournaments are better, feel free to send me a pm or an e-mail

I'll edit the list to keep it updated
