United States Women's Disc Golf Championships 2013
 
I just got through with the summit and I am so happy that Portland is having not 1 but 2 PDGA majors. I am very happy to get that voted through. I will be back in Oregon tomorrow night.

On a side note, I am getting started to put things in motion and the first thing I need is a cool logo.

So I'm asking all artists to submit artwork. I'm looking for an up to date, cool, and vibrant logo for the USWDGC. I would love for this logo to be from someone local but if I don't get any submissions--I will start looking elsewhere. Let me know if you have any questions......

Submit your artwork to rduffy@pdga.com

Thanks,
Rebecca

Rebecca can you provide example of past logo's and maybe some things you did or did not like about them?

Here are some examples of the logos for the past 4 years. I will let Rebecca get on here, and comment on what she likes & dislikes for each logo.

I personally think the 2011 logo looks the best on a disc. I also like how they incorporated their state in the design. It would be cool to have Oregon or the Pacific NW Oregon & Washington incorporated in the design somehow.

I would like something fresh and new........no flowers, butterflies, or bows.
It has been over done.
The logo would go on sponsorship packages , letterhead, and possibly shirts so it needs to be pretty " kick ass". (sorry)

There would also need to be artwork for a CFR so that's a whole new piece of artwork.

I think the logo needs to have USWDGC spelled out because people outside the sport wouldn't know what USWDGC is. I like the past logos (kind of) but they look similar and nothing stands out. This is gonna be the biggest one yet and I just want everything to have a " cool factor".

Let me know if you have any more questions. Thanks,

Rebecca

HerbalTee September 27th, 2012 01:26 PM

Basic Idea?

I was thinking something like this...but I might look at some other ones from various PGA championships to get inspired.

If you have any suggestions, let me know.

i like the state of oregon and the rose... the figure putting is a just a touch androgynous, tho... make it a little more girlie, maybe... i would suggest looking at some val jenkins putting profiles, they are beautiful... melody king's got a great putt as well... maybe some "super side arm sara" action... little catrina allen with her wicked reach back... those are some silhouettes that would look awesome...

also... it's "championships" not "campionships"... ;)






oh, wait... were you asking me or rebecca duffy? :p

HerbalTee September 27th, 2012 05:46 PM

How about this?

Rebecca, do you have a rough timeline for submissions; would 30 days from now be too late?

Compared to the other previous years, that seems kinda boring.
Sorry, I know that is a rough drawing, but.........

Bullseye September 28th, 2012 07:17 AM

Personally, I think it should also say Portland, OR not Fairview.

Moving in the right direction.

I don't care for the diagnal line (Mt. Hood) going right through the basket. It comes off a little cluttered.

definitely, scott. i'm glad you said that, because i think what is most appealing about this design is the simplicity...

So I have zero artistic ability in my entire body but one idea that kinda popped into my head was incorporating local native american art somehow? It's definitely unique to the northwest and if we want to stay away from flowery/girly stuff (even though Portland is the city of roses) this may be a more regional representation. Just spitballin' here.
