Proposal 20121106A

Jeffrey A proposes that the PDGA make the Saturday golf cut off time Thursday at 5 pm. The reason for this is so that Jon can post the Saturday golf line up online Friday morning. This will make things more cohesive and ensure everyone has a better understanding of who they are playing with on Saturday and their tee time.

Craig R seconds this proposal.
