Nick: EO is not moving. It used to be 4 rounds Nokia Beast, this year it's rounds 1-2 Tampere DGC rounds 3-4 Nokia Beast. This is because 25 worlds. They MUST testdrive TDGC with bigger crowds before worlds, so EO 24 gets to play test-dummy. P.S. TDGC is really really great course!
On Champions Cup, they clearly want it to be a spring major, which makes a whole lot of sense. You are going to need to have a course that will play well and look good in the spring. Idlewild is too variable in spring weather. There is too big a danger of losing rounds to weather, having poor footing due to ground conditions, etc. It also needs to fit into the travel schedule for the whole field. Not everyone can just jump on a plane. Finding the right course in the right place to let that happen isn’t necessarily easy.
Sorry to say, but as an Icelander who loves to watch the live disc golf I wish that all tournament don’t be on the west coast. Mpo starts at 10pm this weekend so it’s almost impossible to watch it live
On the issue of spectators in prices, you guys were missing them point. We don’t need to worry about what true fans like us. We need to worry about what casual fans would pay. For a big concert or NBA game there are 20,000 people that will pay one $200 for a seat, probably twice as many that would pay half that there is a large demand and they can simply raise the price until the capacity in price match.for Disc Golf we are barely getting 1000 people out to these things and the issue is to figure out how to encourage Moore to get out to the tournaments.
went to otb as a 1st tournament...hotel cost, rental car, gas, food up there and back,,,5 hour drive...3 day pass...not even in door yet..............it seemed really empty there by the way.....
Ever since getting my little DG basket (for beer caps) from Ollie’s I’ve seen multi podcaster with the same little baskets 🤣🤣

Leonard Muise is a genius designer.
Just putting.
Evan was "nonplussed" by the lower ranking players finished so high
CONGRATS ELLA !!!!! one of the most AWESOME HEARTS in the game...May you have many many more -------> 🏁
I think Nick is completely wrong and champions cup will definitely come back to W.R. Jackson.
Already at 190 wow.
Also still hate the new intro music
