New Basket Update
As previously communicated, a formal Request for Quote (RFQ) has been sent to both DGA and Innova. The RFQ Â is focused on (2) products down-selected by your club officers: DGA Mach X and Innova DISCatcher Pro 28.
We will have formal responses within 2 weeks. Once those responses are received, we will put the 2 options up for a vote to the full current SFDGC Membership. Once a decision is made, we will work with the chosen manufacturer to procure and install the new targets as soon as possible.
You can become a member (or renew) through our website:
Thank you for your continued support throughout this long and arduous process!
