DGA was honored with the PDGA’s choice to highlight our founder and the founder of the sport of Disc Golf with their new logo reveal earlier today:
“You know, a lot of people say that Ed was the “Father of Disc Golf.” Well, that’s true…he did invent the basket, but Ed did another wonderful thing. Probably his major accomplishment, was being the first person to realize that we had a sport on our hands, and not just a toy.”
— Dr. Stancil Johnson, PDGA #009
Congratulations on the new look, PDGA! We will miss seeing the Mach basket that has been in your logo for decades, but are excited for you and all that you continue to do for our sport.
