    Missy may be my favorite player that discraft currently sponsors. She just seems to always be happy.

    So grateful to finally have some baskets in the ground in NYC! It’s a short course but very fun, and in a lovely park. Can’t wait to see all the people that get introduced to disc golf at Highland. Way to go PMF!

    Super impressed with what the Paul McBeth Foundation has accomplished so far! Introducing disc golf and bringing courses to where it really matters is THE most effective way of growing the sport.

    What an awesome little course! Alex and Alex should be really proud of their efforts to bring disc golf to NYC. They are great ambassadors for the sport and I wish them continued success in the future to help grow the sport there.

    I really love how the designers took into consideration others safety! Especially how disc golf can have a negative impact other than what is intended. A group of disc golfers here in my city built a course with baskets near the playgrounds. The course wasn’t very long and some guy threw a high speed driver on one of the holes. Of course, not everyone knows what a four-call means and a lady got hit in the head by the guys disc. Sadly, she was hospitalized with a deep gash and within a week the city revoked the permit for the course and pulled it. The story was in the news and disc golf as a whole got a bunch of hate.

      I 'liked' this but of course I don't like the story. I think disc golf is ridiculously safe, as sports go, but it is played in public parks and (sadly) most people at said parks don't understand that people are throwing frisbees as hard as they possibly can. (Even when there are literally over 100 disc golfers disc-golfing at a "park-style" disc golf course, regular folks will walk their dogs down the fairway, take a phone call on the fairway, take a piss and then have a nap on our fairway, even when there are people playing disc golf all around them, on literally every hole. Share the park-my fucking salty asshole. It's like if a dad were playing catch with his son in a park, and someone just walks in between them, back and forth so that they stop playing catch, and the and the idiot person takes out a blanket and lies down for some R&R, directly in between a father and son playing catch. I take it back; they are not idiot morons - they are straightforwardly evil people.

    I think Van Courtland Park in the Bronx has the space for a full size 18 hole Disc Golf course. It already has a stick golf course. And the subway and buses go there, too :)

    It was nice to hear Paul mention Chicago. Was beginning to think that course had been forgotten. Are there any plans to get those baskets in permanently? Would be great for the city!

    Real baskets, in friggin Brooklyn/Queens?!!?!! This is so unbelievably cool. I mean chill video but also I mean I'm losing my mind a little bit. I've been to this park, never saw a frisbee. Been to NYC lotsa times, never saw a frisbee. Now y'all got baskets? Real baskets, in friggin Brooklyn/Queens?!!?!!

    "it's so quiet here" - barely audible with traffic noise in background. Had to laugh! I'm stoked NYC has this though! Kudos.

    I feel like the best way to get disc golf to grow on a global scale is to get it into the Olympics. I feel like it fits very nicely with all the other events.

    Paul, I think you maybhave just gotten use to the noise as folks tend to do after being in a big city for a few hours. While it's definitely quiter in the park, it's still really loud. The background noise levels are really high. Sometimes so much so that it was hard to hear you through the mic.
    Still, great pitch and put course for folks in NY. Hope they enjoy it.

    • @robkitchen5344
      @robkitchen5344 3 місяці тому

      I was hit in my head with a Shark mid range disc while while waiting to tee off on next hole....and considering how much it hurt.... a beveled or sharper edge driver disc is a serious problem if your young or very old if hit with full power of a advanced player.....if holes are only 200 ft then putter or mid is all you need and kee0s the cost down for most to play

    • @robkitchen5344
      @robkitchen5344 3 місяці тому

      This looks like a good "Safari" type course that regulars to the park will establish themselves one day fir each of thrse holes to expand the layout to 18 hike using the existing 9 baskets

    We have a course like this in Grand Rapids, Hughes Park. It's an 18 hole course right in a park, 9 baskets but has 18 tee pads. Maybe they can implement that to the New York course.

    This looks like a fun little course. A great design for what you had to work with. Reminds me of a 13 hole course we have near Minneapolis called Riverfront 13. I love these midrange/putter courses. Lots of fun for everyone.

    I'm SO upset that I missed out on meeting you last week in Salem, OR. My buddy and his friend ran into you and Nate Sexton at Woodmansee park, and it boggled my mind that you would play there! It's a fun course, and now every time I go I'm looking for you or Nate or anybody else I might recognize. Awesome video and thanks for what you've done for the sport.
