Hello race fans and welcome to dis golf daily the podcast that gets you caught up with disc golf news and growth in just 10 minutes if you find something interesting share the podcast with a friend now smash that volume button and let’s get to it I certainly hope Mason
Levert of Allen Texas is listening he’s PDGA number 278 915 one of the newest to join the PDGA welcome aboard Mason jumping right into the news dgn announces new tiers they have basic standard and pro all tiers get improved playback including pause and Rewind live broadcast upgraded 60 frames per second
Streaming and instantaneous playback yeah that Vimeo delay was really painful I’m glad those days are behind behind us in addition to all that stuff basic has coverage of all the events PDGA members get for free basic is also free for PDGA members which is a really nice
Way of doing it it’s very clean and uh you just have to link your pdj number in your dgn account basic can watch on a total of one device standard can watch on two devices and pro can watch on three looks like I’m going looks like
I’m going pro so my mom and sister can keep watching it also gives me some extra goodies which I’ll get to in just a second first rounds and tournaments Central will continue to be free on the prot tour YouTube channel and Final Round And complete event coverage via pay-per-view
Will also be available Al be at their touch pricey as in you may as well get a monthly standard subscription yeah that kind of pricey dgn standard and dgn pro subscribers get full access to All Pro Tour events All Pro Tour Europe live broadcasts a total of close to 30 Live
Events and over 1,600 hours of coverage that is amazing Pro subscribers also get feature whole broadcasts some aole streams and this is interesting alternate commentary broadcasts and no they didn’t ask me to do it but if they do I might be available just kidding serious ly though Pro
Subscribers will also get access to the European open and usdgc broadcasts Pro tier members also get adree live coverage of round one some merch discounts and interestingly two general admission tickets to a Pro Tour event presumably of their choice I’m not sure they nailed the tiers and costs yet but
This is a great first step towards dgn becoming the singular home for everyone that wants to watch quality disc golf content watching what they’re doing with catch and some of the other great shows that are being integrated via Jes Pro dgn is becoming a more than more than
Just a live coverage network if you were happy last year you’ll be happy this year plus pdgm members can watch quite a bit for free uh there’s an opportunity to pay more for the third streaming device and some extra perks I’m sure will grow out of this over time well
Done pro tour and dgn we want you to grow we’re willing to support our Second Story udisk top 10 courses they continue their reveal Eagles Landing in new truck in Missouri it was number six in 2023 it is number nine in 2024 people came from 43 St States and
Nine countries to play this course I love the story of this course Philip Samuel is giving an open checkbook a huge track of land and only a desire to build the best disc golf course in the world to his course designer who in all aspects clearly succeeded congrats to
Dave McCormack course designer and Mr Samuels you guys have stayed in the top 10 that is a major accomplishment bearing in mind especially how many new courses are coming on to the scene our third story fantasy disc golf draft report if you play Fantasy disc golf especially in the new and improved
Skip a.com you owe it to yourself to see how dis golfar around.com thinks about it I’m not going to go into detail except to say that seeing this much thought and depth put into fantas the fantasy side of dis golf is a very good sign for the overall growth of the sport
It also prends a push into a mainstream gambling app over the uh in the short-term future I’m excited to see both of those things happen and see this sport get even bigger our fourth story Allstar Weekend doubles so I told you about the day one format yes yesterday
We’ll go over the doubles today and we’ll go over the singles tomorrow team matchups are based on player seeds we’ll go through the women and then the men and I might even do a little pick or two the number three M matchup is uh cat merch and Macy valadas versus Katrina
Allen and Sarah Sarah Hokum so on one side we have one Elite win on the other side we have three World Championships based on the way 2023 ended up my pick would normally lean towards the Young Guns but I think cat plays well at the beginning of the year and Sarah’s so
Consistent she’ll be a good foundation for Katrina and I think they will pull out the win number two matchup Jessica and henna versus Ella and Ally so it’s really this is a very interesting matchup actually they all are but henna and Ella are very similar off the tea
Although henna maybe’s a little more consistent and Jessica and allly are the wild cards here I’m going to pick Ella and Ally because of Allie’s Ace it Fox Run I want her to see see her throw one in from the Fairway and run it down for
The win number one matchup own and Haley versus Missy and Holland uh wow there is no way to pick this all four of them could run the table I’m going to lean Missy and Holland because I think Holland’s driving is a little more consistent and Missy’s putting is almost
As good as ‘s this is going to be a super fun match to watch on the men’s side number three Chris Dickerson and Matt or versus Cole ralin and Aaron gosage I’m not going to pick I’m just going to watch having said that Matt orm did win
The MVP open I’m going old guys all right number two matchup Bella and Waki versus kleene and Burr it is hard to believe that this is not the number one matchup these guys are so freaking good there is no way to predict who’s going to
Win I expect it’s going to be minus 14 to minus 15 if the course is impossible all right the number one matchup on the men’s side Calvin heimberg and James Proctor versus Mr Robinson’s only because they are brothers I’ve got to go with Isaac and Ezra playing a doubles
Round with my brother would buoy my spirits I’d be able to throw nearly 285 ft plus we all know Calvin heimberg is washed up uh just kidding but seriously going through these matchups is making me very excited to watch the pro tour again it all starts in Just 2 days each
Doubles match is worth one point towards the Team Battle we’ll go over the singles matches tomorrow and wrapping up the News segment today the pdj has released information on the women’s Global uh Inova is the presenting partner it is the best player pack ever a claimed 88 value $88 value for the $28
Entry fee that 88 might be a bit of a stretch but but it’s definitely a $50 value you’re you’re doubling your money just for playing one of the best things the PDGA does the women’s Global gets even better uh if you are a woman or you
Know a woman uh check out the link in the show notes they have uh how to run an event how to sign up to play an event they also have a list of the player pack items which include three discs a towel a pin a mini and more and that’s it for
