I know this an old thread but I am relatively new here and to the game. I wouldn't play a tournament due to 2 factors - the main one being that I am just not good enough even though I would be in some type of seniors (old man) tier due to my age of 58. The other factor would be the waiting in between throws. Once I get into a certain rhythm of play it's hard to wait 10 minutes between throws and remain consistent.
This. I am waiting until I can consistently shoot par at the courses I play before I join the PDGA and play tournaments. I played one early on and was terrible. I am currently shooting 3-4 over on the courses I play so I have a bit more work to do before I start playing tourneys. Kind of an arbitrary benchmark some might say but I think if I can consistently shoot par that would give me a chance to be competitive in a tournament.
