The entire membership process should take 3-4 weeks. This time frame includes processing your membership, assigning your PDGA number and shipping your membership package. We ship using Business First Class. This rate generally takes 3-10 days once shipped. An exception to this is if a personalized bag tag has been ordered. This will add to delivery time as the tag must be custom ordered. Thank you for your patience.

If your membership package has not arrived within 4 weeks of being processed, please notify the Memberships Manager, Addie Isbell: aisbell@pdga.com or 706-261-6342. To expedite the process, please make sure to include your mailing address within your email. Once your address is confirmed, we will place a reship/redo order in our weekly batch.

Contact the PDGA office at coa@pdga.com or 706-261-6342. If you subscribe to the magazine, you will need to notify them directly with your address change: 724-308-1121

Yes, if it is within the current calendar year. Just send an email listing the event(s), division and place of finish to tourmgr@pdga.com and we will add the event(s) to your stats. There may be a delay in seeing an event in your stats if the tournament report has not been submitted by the tournament director. A good way to check this is to see if the online results state "Unofficial" or "Official". If it states "Official", the tournament report is in our possession and the event can be added.
