This is a great event folks!

What's not to like about $1000 guaranteed to the Open winner?

Or a sweet cooked on site barbecue dinner?

220 people in 2007 know what's to like.

This is not one to miss.

saw this on another forum and thought it was some neat info..

Largest PDGA Tournaments in 2007

1- Bowling Gren Ams 724
2- Am Worlds 530
3- Pro Worlds 312
4- Minnesota Majestic 228
5- Willamette Open Nine 211

?- 2007 Memphis Dogwood Classic 222

Don't know for sure but its quite likely the Dogwood is the 5th largest of any tournament, the 2nd largest non-major tournament, and the largest Non-PDGA Sanctioned Event in the world.

224 is what will go into the record books. We had 225 at one point but had a withdrawal.

Todd Alexander won $1000 for 1st MPO. Matt Orum took 1x $40 skin and Kris Orrick took 5x. MDGC Club Member Alan Logan cleaned out the $500 MDGC rolling ace pot plus was the only Advanced Ace for approximately $650 earned in one throw.

Results are up at SNDG.org in the forum. Full payout info will be available in the next day or so.
