The goal is to get the lowest Bag Tag # before the Bag Tag Award Ceremony at the ADG Australian Disc Golf Championships in Sydney on October 27-28. |
The purpose of the Bag Tag Challenge is to add another fun element to personal, league and tournament rounds of disc golf. Please proudly display your Bag Tag where others can easily see it and have fun.
The Bag Tag Challenge consists of many players buying numbered tags to display on their disc golf bags. The object of the challenge is to work your way up to finish with the #1 tag.
Your goal is to have the lowest numbered Bag Tag possible. When players participate in Bag Tag challenges, the player with the lowest round score earns the lowest numbered Bag Tag among the challengers. Bag Tags must be exchanged immediately following the round. In the event of a tie, the player who started with the lowest numbered Bag Tag will be awarded the lowest numbered Bag Tag.
Give someone a call and challenge them to a round at your favourtie course and try to get that elusive #1 tag. If you don’t succeed try again and again. Hold a one round mini in your area to decide the starting order or even the reverse order so the best players start with the highest tags. Have fun and experiment.
Across Australia three different bag tags (Perth, NSW and VIC) have been designed and made with consecutive numbers from 1 to 20. These will be used at a local level between now and October (longer if you want) to show local club spirit and support and just as importantly to stick it up your mates to say you have a low numbered tag.
Then at the Australian Disc Golf Championships in Sydney the Top 3 players from each region (WA, VIC and NSW) who hold the lowest number bag tags in attendance will go in the draw for a special prize and some other ADG surprises.
The important thing is to have fun, get out and play more and show some club or state pride.
If you run your own club or group and would like your own for next time let us know now so we help you with them.
To buy yours today simply contact the people listed in your region on the ADG website and start having fun. Bag Tags are only $10 if collected in person or plus $1 postage and all proceeds go to the development of disc golf in Australia via the ADG or your local club.
Yours in Flight,
