That Logo in the back Is SICK

I mean I know it's a brilliant logo, got the lock with a G & L and a great color combo but...is that also a hint of a disc golf reachback??
Kevin jones replied to a comment saying “mid season checkout? Oooh!” With “wait you think I’d give up? Announcement coming soon” so it doesn’t seem he’s quitting disc golf
I literally wait for this every week.

Yeah the commentary guys were in suits. Far superior commentary mainly because they aren't constantly talking about cheese bread or whatever stupid stuff the Americans talk about.
The funny thing about the Turku MPO final round was the commentator saying "Antilla's problem is that he wants to win this too bad" and Antilla went on to play the best final round I've seen him play.
the European courses are so well manicured, the cameras for coverage were amazing and the genuine excitement of the announcers were so next level. segways into commercials, everything was top notch production. Very well produced and directed.

Wait! It's NOT?!?!?!
We NEED the European commentators full time. They actually have a true color and play by play set up and they talk about specific shots for specific players. It seems like they do more research and know each persons games/shot preferences.
Found this on Reddit about the Roc3 "The roc3 is listed as approval in 2017 according to the pdga and has been released as fundraisers since 2013, with stock runs in 2015 or 2016, I can’t recall. I have a 2015 McBeth tour series one and another from 2016 USDGC even so I’m positive about this. I was so confused about this and have never gotten an answer I really feel good with. I heard that it’s a post mold flattening process and it’s literally a roc smushed flat, so it was grandfathered in as a roc. But then why would they approve it later?"
Ohhh 🤤 absolutely love the new setup
PA boys with Trevor!! Turkey Hill iced tea is on point. Great variety, too.
One of your best vids
great points on commentary!!!
SHOUTOUT Sean Tapley! I used to play with Sean around Fredricksburg, VA!
My first trip to New Jersey as a kid I ordered iced tea it was unsweet. So there ya go lol. Also no sugar in tea in Wyoming, they do sun tea. I could only find sweet tea at McDonald’s when I was there
Wish the player rankings was a weekly segment. It's great hearing about head to heads and how the players are trending. It's my favorite part of ya'lls podcast. Would also like to see it expanded to top 15 for mpo and top 10 for fpo.
Trevor being legit upset about the Silas selects from last week's was great 😂
Dude,… 3 minutes in and I was about to go back and watch the last episode again! Cuz I didn’t remember that
When it comes to on the field commentary go watch the live coverage of beaver state fling. Round 1 MPO at 4 h 2 min with the Interview with Nate Doss. Perk had Doss call Gannon’s shot and that is exactly what you are looking for
Why not take the mics off the table so hands can be placed on the table without noise disruptions?
Love the Big Tapp shoutout! Used to follow him closely on IG but I think he moved on to other things sadly
The boys didn’t get cursed! They caught the KJ news before dropping the episode. I’m guessing it’ll be a last minute segment at the end. An added clip
As a New Yorker you know I back my girl Missy all day, but Silva has had that second spot for the last 2 years. Glad she took one down.

I was literally in Boston this weekend to play Maple Hill and while driving through the city got honked at twice as soon as I got off the highway.

I'm pretty sure that Gateway company started as the first disc golf bag company, then grew into discs.. ( early 90's? ) It's also likely that Dave was building courses, too, at that time.

Iced tea in Canada is exclusively sweet
Do you Kevin had a performance stipulation in his contract? And he was so far below the line the they let some type of buy out happen?
West Coast you get tea with sugar packets on the side.

You have to ask for un-sweet tea where I live. Northern Indiana. I know because I only drink un-sweet tea. I am also an a-hole
Agreed. As someone originally from Texas, sweet tea is sweet tea. Iced tea is never sweet. Also, as I now live in New England, turkey hill is straight garbo 😂

Does anyone else remember the I-ROC. I remember seeing it in and around 2008 or 9. But never saw it again and could never find proof of its existence online or anyone else who could remember me. It is burned into my mind because it was the second Roc I had ever seen. Am I crazy, or did I dream it, or does anyone remember this.
I can confirm about the tea scenario, I've lived in Texas/Bama/Florida/Illinois. The more south you go the more sweet people are. Illinois is filled with a bunch of assholes and unsweetened tea very much fills that narrative 😂

My dad has drank plain tea his entire life. We always called it dirt water. A few times as kids we accidentally grabbed his cup and drank. No thank you. Not herbal, not green, no sugar, just brown plain tea.

22nd Comment I'm here
Prodigy made a post, so I imagine it was prodigy letting go of KJ.
You guys really should try to reach out to snoop dogg, and get him to play a round with you. It seems he does everything under the sun, we gotta get him to play some disc golf too.
@Bestpolevaulter

Or maybe just do commentary of a round you guys play. You would only need to pay him for a half hour of his time if you go with that idea.
Disc golf disc is 21 cm wide. One does not need to explain where it is going. Just film the flight.

I just assume all tea is sweet unless stated otherwise. I live an hour and a half south of you. Never seen anyone drink unsweetened tea unless they got the diebeetus 4. I wouldn't trust a man just choosing unsweet tea. That's a situation where I'd be looking to leave as soon as possible to get away from that person.

So many pro tour events when either Brian or Perkins has been on the ground, I've literally heard them say to the booth "kick it down to me more guys, I have lots to talk about", and then the tournament would go for another 2 plus hours before you would hear from either of them again. Also, I can't count how many times the commentary in the booth has gone so dead silent, I've fallen asleep with my chin in my lap as if it had just stopped playing so I completely agree that we are not using our commentary the way they need to be used.
1. "Hey I'm walking here" is a New York thing, not Boston. Very different accents 2. York County PA is NOT the south
Thankfully korver beat the two cheaters in FP50

'Strength of field' really doesn't matter - you get the same number of points for winning the event regardless. If the number of points you win was adjusted for SOF, then it would be relevant. Otherwise, it's just a talking point.

I just can't stomach to watch these euro events. It feels like a funeral proceeding. The vibe is like everyone you've ever loved has just died and you have to put on a disc golf broadcast. That's fine though, not every tournament has to be the same. If the Europeans like that style then this is for them to enjoy, which I hope they did.
