PDGA ratings are up. How'd you do?

Went up 8 points to 942, not quite at my goal yet but if I can keep shooting well 950 this year is doable.

Had a personal best 989 on the last update, one chain out away from the elusive 1000.
 
Barely managed to cling on despite some of my worst rounds in a hot minute and went up 3, holding on to my streak of improving every update.
 
After a slow climb towards 900 I took my first hit, down 9 to 869. 🤕

Can't seem to string 2 good rated rounds in a row these days. Played a Masters C Tier last Sunday, 36 holes with a heat index of 112 at the end of the day. That's not gonna help my next rating.
 
A few days late, but I was right. Dipped to just below 950. First time since 2007. :( 949.

Bright side - finally healthy after resting my body from mid-March onward (rating dipped due to end of a sanctioned single league, I only played rnd1 and then shut it down). On Tuesday I shot a 973 in literally my second full round (I also shot a half round a week before). And I picked up a birdie from an accurate pin-high drive on a 430' golf shot with no pain at all in the back/pelvic area. No pain after the round. No pain the next day.

No pain in the sacroiliac joint. Still some numbness in the rear of the hamstring/bottom-back of foot from the swollen piriformis pressing on the sciatic. But the stabbing pain I was getting there is about gone too.

Ready to get back up above 950 for another 15 years.
 
No kidding.

I can (barely) see the historical rationale, where they claimed they were trying to "encourage" current membership by using stats as a members-only perk. But, those days are long gone and any historical legitimacy for that strategy is dead.

There's been times when Ken Climo's info was hidden. Currently Nate Doss's information is hidden. A 3 time world champion and current DGPT commentator and you can't see his historical stats.

Cam Todd. John Ahart. Brad Hammock. Alan Schack. Phil Arthur. I could go on, but I won't. :p
Was trying to respond to some random person on reddit that claimed Kyle Klein is already the best player to ever come out of Michigan and came across this...

Nice, thanks Chris!

Which brings us to another point about why hiding this info is silly for the PDGA. The bigger a game/sport/activity gets, if you won't do it, somebody else will. So it's better for the PDGA to open up this info instead of letting somebody else get the eyes on their product.

I believe StatMando and the PDGA are working pretty closely together. I hope that this sharing continues to grow, and eventually we get more thorough numbers on the StatMando site for players AND events. Or if the PDGA continues to be the only place hosting the event results (aside from UDisc at the highest level), maybe they transition ALL player stats over to StatMando or a similar partner?
 
Congratulations. You're both the least-informed person here, AND you've played enough golf to mostly be above 900.

You are just missing the context of which I am posting what i post. I don't post about what actually is, but would should be, for the most part. On the Nikko thread I said, "what if" repeatedly, as to actual events, as much of that info was unavailable. In the end it was still a crap call, made by an official who had to be pissed that the the rules called for him to time these players on so many multiple occasions. i think he called it just so he didn't end up wasting his whole day. It did absolutely nothing to improve the pace of play of anyone else on the course, so it was basically a victim free crime, with too severe a penalty. Which is why I always stated that they should take it easy on Nikko for his outburst, which was totally out of line, and deserving of some punishment, but was somewhat to be expected with such a ruling.
