2017 Konopiště Open Lead Card Final Round Back 9 (McBeth, Wysocki, Sexton, Lizotte)

[@robertsoderberg556]

16:50 - 17:05 Avery: and now is your chance to open up and unlesh a big distance shot! Simon: No its more like a controlled hyzer. Avery: Damn you gonna call me out like that huh! Simon: Sorry.. 😂

[@mitchellphillips4691]

“Shecond shot to the basket”

[@bow2yoursensei]

- "AND KNOCKS IT DOWN, FOR THE BIRDIE" -"No, that's a par" -"......AND KNOCKS IT DOWN, FOR THE PAR" -"there you go.."

[@MarkEckardt21]

Jerrod Arsulich i read this before i wached it and died when i heard it thank you for that!

[@familydinner1]

What time was that at?

[@bow2yoursensei]

11:47

[@MrZoololator]

WTF was that Avery? :D

[@familydinner1]

Wicked.

[@TheWhiskeyCross]

If Avery would just talk to Simon/Audience, since most people want to hear what the pros are thinking, instead of trying to narrate the game I think it would improve his commentating 100%.

[@filoIII]

One is play-by-play, the other color commentary.

[@brantchurchill7415]

I do wish this was just a Jomez production as they use top notch commentary

[@benjaminpike1437]

FINALLY!!!!!! (in an excited happy tone of voice ;-)! I avoided social media for the last 2 days so I didn't find out the winner! Thanks Jomez and Spin TV!

[@SimpleHumman]

same here

[@Radwynfinite]

I got boned on that note.. I scrolled down to the comments on the 2nd round and someone had posted the winner.. it was quickly deleted, but who would do such a thing?? simply cruel

[@lukecrawford2159]

+Radwynfinite that same guy spoiled it for me as well, idk why it got so many up votes....

[@takman17]

What makes the other commentary teams good is that they respond to each others comments and amusing stories. Avery insists on narrarating every moment with the same stock phrases over and over. Its like Simon wasn't even there.

[@ryanfreeman5048]

Great video! Loved the coverage. But, c'mon man. "Archbishop Franz Ferdinand?" It's definitely Archduke. Kind of an important historical figure to slip up on.

[@NickDanger790]

Ryan Freeman beat me to it. Lol the archbishop of Austria. I wanted Simon to correct him so bad.

[@220volt-u7]

Austria-Hungary

[@shawnhoelzle8121]

"all three rounds in the bullseye, the turkey, three for three, the trifecta on hole 10" okok we get it.

[@RaidersNewsReport]

I LOVE DISC GOLF!!!

[@Bomber848480015]

Avery Jenkins thanks for the commentating and the history of the grounds very cool!

[@LyndonDimond]

Thanks for the coverage. Loving the advances you guys have made in the past couple years. Keep it up!

[@user-ko1qo7qw8r]

Simon cracks me up! Nicely done sir.

[@bow2yoursensei]

"UP RIGHT SIDE AND IN UP RIGHT CHAINS AND OUT UP AND IN AND OUT AND UP"

[@monkeykcuf]

made me laugh too hard

[@tomdavies1258]

Jomez Productions motto: Next Day, All Day! Spin TV: manana...

[@mrsquirrel5308]

Yo Avery, we're not blind

[@shawnhoelzle8121]

Avery: "pual absolutely nails his shot, perfectly, sweet spot" Simon:"almost" lmao sounded more like "shut up" to me

[@sueinraleigh3091]

Nothing better than a battle between Rick and Paul!! Enjoyed this so much!!’

[@SimplyAnchored]

Thank you for adjusting the volume of the commercials!

[@benjaphar]

You could tell how irritating it was for Simon to have to co-commentate with Avery. It's just so over the top with the over-dramatic tone and tempo. The few times he actually dropped that and talked to Simon normally, it was such a nice change. Specifically, when he mentioned the hillside that you have to stop the discs, so everyone can aggressively attack the basket, he just sounded like a normal guy giving his inside perspective on the course and hole, which is exactly what most of us want. Relax, Avery... relax.

[@samimannila5560]

Great production, though I don't care much about Averys commentary. Too stiff. I prefer the more relaxed SimonEagle or BigSexy commentaries.

[@CHi1DZP1aY]

"Knocks it down for the birdie" -No that's a par "Knocks it down for the par"

[@ethanchlebowskimultiverse]

Avery: "I'm gonna say the turning point was hole 2" uhh not a chance. Hole 10 when rick canned a 55 footer to keep 1 stroke ahead of Paul who was like 20 feet away was definitely the turning point. He then turned that confidence into another huge putt on the next hole.

[@asbjrnbuevranghauberg9673]

Ethan Chlebowski I totally agree. Paul had the lone birdie on hole 9 which could have shifted the momentum a bit but Ricky's putt on 10 just sparked him into winning mode. Another AJ-fail IMHO :-)

[@brekkoh]

It's crazy how you can hear Avery take time to think about what he's going to say and still struggle.

[@elephantricity]

Exactly.. Its embarrassing. Innova really should listen to the people who actually watch their videos and put the can on Avery as a commentator. It reminds me of when Innova posted that horrible hat guy science video. They were smart then and realized an ad like that shouldn't represent disc golf. Can't say the same regarding Avery.

[@jeblavender2125]

Elephantricity in their defense for the final round videos... all the other pros had flights to catch. So it was either wait to release these videos with pro commentary or release them earlier with Simon and Avery. Imo, I would prefer them wait lol. But whatever.

[@shawnhoelzle8121]

dude you have no idea.... i kept score for lead card during usdgc last year and during wrap up he couldnt think on the spot.. screwed up 30 takes, then said he needed some time to write some stuff down.. terrible.

[@ethanchlebowskimultiverse]

Exactly, some people just are not good at commentary, Avery being one of them. His intructional videos are fine, but don't try to fit a square peg into a round hole.

[@mmonhollon]

It's like Avery is plugged into a bad robot translator.

[@Jamminn555]

Fantastic video coverage and production!

[@jaminschmitt]

I don't think we'll get a Simon Avery duo again. Simon gave Avery the floor and seemed non plussed in commentating after a while.

[@bobbyswain7049]

Again..beautiful course..great commentary. Congrats to SOCKIBOMB! Well done guys

[@woodedwire]

Everyone picking on Avery, but I felt that Simon was really dragging the commentary down with comments on how others should throw and pointing out if they did something bad. I didnt feel ironic to me and made me mute the last 4 holes. The video footage is really top class though! Jomez Prod. So guuud!

[@mynameisianhunt]

Great coverage of a great event. One small suggestion: Stop posting spoilers.

[@mikewest712]

mynameisianhunt. Ian, that will never happen.

[@MantaMoto]

how did you know his name was Ian?

[@mikewest712]

Are you serious?

[@connoreshelman2001]

he's bamboozled

[@mynameisianhunt]

Is it really so hard to NOT make the thumbnail of the "Tournament Pics" video literally a pic of Ricky getting sprayed with champagne? How is that never going to happen???

[@nataskaos]

Avery is a super nice guy, an amazing ambassador to the game, and a perfect instructor for new golfers. But please stop doing commentary. It just isn't your strong suit.

[@18bigegan]

nataskaos I don't think too many could make commentary great in these videos just cause of how DGWT does them. The round is recorded and then they just have Avery, and a guest, sit down and add commentary to it. Like you said Avery is an awesome instructor, and he'd probably be a lot better at commentary if they would do actual live coverage. As it is now, they know every shot and outcome of each round when they do commentary. So there's no element of surprise or the unknown to ad excitement and enthusiasm from the commentators. All they can do is narrate the entire round

[@DrewliusCeaser]

What are you talking about? Ever watch any video with Nate sexton? Or any video by CCDG? There are tons of great commentators that it comes natural for them and have a natural grace behind the mic, Avery just isn't one of them. There's no shame in that.

[@jasonlloyd9238]

yeh its rough to listen to, i like nate sexton and big jerm, very good banter

[@im_Pinkk]

commentary dream team, Avery and Rickey... not

[@goldenglovled]

I gotta say...I think I actually like Simon and Eagle better.

[@williammartin1776]

Great job again, Good coverage and commentary! Very enjoyable to watch

[@likewhoa1030]

Ricky's putting game continues to be absolutely nuts.

[@chillokapi5225]

Incredible Coverage. ESPN couldn't do it any better!

[@Sketto8]

Avery is a great dude. He just needs to talk in casual sentences like an experienced player, which he is, and not like a dramatic play-by-play man, which he isn't.

[@Alex-dc5ji]

"It's entirely up hill the entire way" lol Avery commentary

[@suitableace1028]

They say some pro's have sneaky distance - Avery has sneaky humor - he has come a long way with his commentary and this one was great when he bantered with Simon a few times. Well done.

[@matttorma6787]

I can barely watch this because of AJ. Sorry man, but your commentary is so much fluff. I enjoy listening to the top players and hearing their strategy and approach towards the holes. It's also nice to get their perspective of the course, tourney, current players, etc...AJ just doesn't have that perspective since he's not playing on the lead cards (or at all).

[@jonathanbuchter]

Avery: Welcome back everybody, lets get on with the front 9! Me: Omg I've been waiting for this for so long!! Avery: Im your host Me: Fucking hell

[@brantchurchill7415]

Please don't use Avery, ever again... Simon is great. Jomez great production As always.

[@gunchbandit4422]

That course looks amazing.

[@crippyclips]

Avery: "gonna call me out like that huh?" Lmao solid bro. Definitely getting better and smoother at commentary! SpinTV- Thanks for the great coverage!

[@danwurth5272]

thank you

[@me-lb7ws]

Listening to Avery reminds me of being in elementary school where everyone, even that awkward kid, had to announce the morning news once a year.. Granted, I too was that awkward kid, but I learned early that public speaking wasn't my forte. He's a solid player, but damn man, embrace your strengths and let the rest fall away.

[@18bigegan]

me yeah but I'd say disc golf world tour has it somewhere that he's got to do it. Since DGWT started, they've pretty much had Avery as their star pro. So they've probably got it in writing, he does commentary for all their events. Even if he's not the greatest, he'll get better is how they seem to look at it

[@asbjrnbuevranghauberg9673]

me -If DGWT is so eager to give Avery a job commentating, why not the chase card?

[@Rthurr_]

Avery sounds so official when Simon is just chilling and enjoying

[@_iHuneyBadger]

Yeah!!!! Glad to see it didn't take several more days!!

[@H5N14U]

2:16 "you can feast on a hole like this." lmao

[@spencerpellant1728]

I like the commentary.

[@tobin0405]

The problem isn't whether or not disc golf fans will watch this, we will. It's the potential fan or more importantly the potential investors/sponsors. The footage and editing is excellent but Avery's commenting is off putting to say the least.

[@skedeman]

thank you!

[@kkwedell]

Avery needs to stop commentating like a radio announcer. I can see whats happening, you don't need to explain every shot.

[@18bigegan]

Kody Wedell Well the reason Avery probably sounds like that and pretty much just has to narrate what happens is because of how DGWT does their coverage. The tournament round is filmed and after the round, they just have Avery, and a guest, sit down and add commentary to it. So they already know what the players were thinking,what shots they took, and the outcome. Avery probably wouldn't sound like this if it were actually live, because as it is now narrating the round is pretty much all they can do

[@asbjrnbuevranghauberg9673]

Kody Wedell That doesn't make sense at all: If the commentators know what's gonna happen and they believe that the viewers already know the outcome of the round, then they should most definitely quit the play-by-play-action-excitement style of commentary and just focus on the "why" and emphasize analysis. This happens often when it's two players (I know that AJ is a player too - he just doesn't sound like one) commenting a round (IMHO) :-)

[@smujismuj]

Great job on commentary guys. You need to show the top 10 to 20 on the Leader Board between each basket.

[@baworkman1]

sounded like lizotte was getting a little annoyed with Jenkins.

[@QactisX]

I would too

[@permyr100]

Avery is the beste commentary

[@kyleweir689]

I like the concept of the cool temp course for this event, but wouldn't it be cool to have a slightly tweaked layout for Sunday? Move the pads back or protect the baskets a little more. Seeing double digit under rounds every round gets a bit passe after a while..

[@GassyJalapeno]

spent half the video reading the comments. lol

[@worldbiosphere]

The ads between holes are all very short...nothing wrong with that at all! Well thought out marketing striking the balance between sponsor promotion and viewer ad tolerance. Also, Avery's commenting isn't bad at all. Reminds me of NHL hockey commentating- polished and professional sounding, although I still like commentating by McBeth and Nate the best.

[@FALCORTON]

I really like the shot tracker

[@benjamikael]

What's that Decodye putter what Ricky is throwing at hole 18? 🤔 looks like Tournament Harp.

[@DiscGolfNerd]

I wonder who sponsored this event. Another nice win for Riiiick.

[@justinharris5060]

"Current and reigning world champion"

[@zeedevil4409]

Ricky killing the tour so far

[@YoSpier]

What beautiful weather

[@benyoung5097]

Avery Jenkins hated Simon Lizotte on this episode... (Excellent job staying cool Simon) You rock.

[@jakesonger1]

Great footage work Jomez! One question, can I change my Jomez patreon pledge to non-Avery only?

[@aarons6988]

Ok guys I don't think commenting about Avery's commentating is going to anything. I believe the message was received... like a year ago

[@markhumphrey6397]

I wonder if we could get John Madden to do color commentary. Love to see him do the telecaster with marks all over the screen. "I don't know what he was thinking!" " He should have thrown it over here. " You know how that Thunderbird fades out." "He could have avoided that blocker er I mean tree." Would be a riot.

[@ffsrekt]

Oh my god Averys commentary is a total cringefest. I can't listen

[@jakesonger1]

Cringefest is my new favorite

[@ffsrekt]

Jake Songer hahahaha right on

[@parkertaylor3042]

FINALLY

[@Jwool716]

Good coverage. But Avery's wannabe Sportscenter tempo and play by play style is obnoxious.

[@skurfntx]

What kind of trees are those big red ones?

[@asbjrnbuevranghauberg9673]

skurfntx - this I think: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fagus_sylvatica#/media/File%3AMølleparken_(maj_02).jpg

[@TJR82]

Simon is 100 x better in throwing than commentating. Now he's game is luckily much wiser than for example in here.

[@mattbarker8315]

Run it down raptor legs! Lol. Love the commentating!

[@DavidLuchetti]

Matt Barker that was funny ... but I still agree with most comments - AJ shouldn't be doing commentary

[@mtp9214]

That was pretty funny. Where'd he pull that out from?

[@jeblavender2125]

I love how Simon is criticizing Jomez for their camera angles and choice of editing. I'm sure he's joking for the most part but it's pretty funny.

[@Squinn0303]

Run it down raptor legs?

[@SulonenMedia]

What putter does Ricky use?

[@tortato9386]

"no that's a par."

[@compositionink]

Two years later, did anyone tell Rick he missed a belt loop?

[@ewucrew2]

please take the commas out of Avery's script...

[@CenzoVD]

Please read the comments and don't let Avery do commentary anymore. I understand he needs practice if he wants to get better, but final round lead card action is not where he is at yet.

[@Biophoria1]

Absolutely love Simon's humor. AJ is super serious and needs to lighten up a bit...converse with your partner!

[@MarkEckardt21]

listening to this is like have a sub teacher and they just read straight off the power point

[@Breadedchicken556]

wish they would not show rickys deep putt before the round 2 of the finals total show killer

[@vmax8809]

Again a thumb down for the massive advertising.

[@williammartin1776]

finally!

[@kicks7402]

i've never been so drunk..every time i heard check i took a drink...

[@cakerape]

Simon is cringing listening to Avery

[@kristianbalsrod]

Not a lot of love of love between these two commentators, huh?

[@papigringo5692]

Insert negative comment about Avery's total nonsense here. Sorry, I like to keep it positive but I want them to stop using this guy for commentary. And the only way that will happen is if enough people complain. "THREE IN A ROW, THE TRIFECTA, THE TURKEY, THE HAT TRICK, TRIPLETS, THE HOLY TRINITY, THE THREE AMIGOS, UP AND INTO THE CHAINS HE KNOCKS IT DOWN TO STAY IN THE LEAD" There is a difference between play-by-play and commentary. Avery is doing play-by-play (and doing it badly), and I think the fans are much more interested in commentary. The "Raptor Legs" line almost places him beyond reproach. That shit was awesome, I gotta hand it to him. But quit anyway, Avery.

[@blueboy2727]

Yeah, Raptor Legs was funny. He did great hole intros. He just needs to dial it down when play is going on.

[@tomtreece4081]

Avery, when you "drop some history" make sure you are correct. You attempted on hole 17 but got it wrong. Franz Ferdinand was the Archduke of Austria NOT an archbishop. Big difference.

[@asbjrnbuevranghauberg9673]

Tom Treece At least he didn't say "named after the Scottish rock band" ;-)

[@CKofAZ]

It might be time to update Paul pic, it looks like a mug shot...

[@jameswilliams9157]

been thinking the same!

[@jeblavender2125]

Chris K Paul? What about Nate lol.

[@lossprevails]

28:36 Avery: As you see Sexton going *forehand* , kinda back to his strengths. Known for being a typical *forehand* thrower, uhm, lots of *forehands* so you're saying Nate throws forehands

[@tobin0405]

'Current and reigning'. ???

[@markmclevy5428]

what the hell is king matcher?!?

[@smujismuj]

Simon-"I don't know what I'm doing." :-D

[@smujismuj]

16:49 "You're gonna call me out like that, huh?" "Sorry".

[@pmboyd88]

Simon misses putt on 18 from inside the circle.... How does he have 100% Inside the Circle percentage? lol

[@jarmstrong91908]

Avery still needs help in the commentary game, desperately!

[@jamesturner7488]

21:30 Simon baited Avery into that one! and he bit! hook line and sinker! LMAO

[@RobboNJDad]

does anyone else think Simon sounds like Kumail Nanjiani at times?

[@jpjp2365]

That was pretty hard to listen too. I think if AJ approached this a little different like hes out with a friend having a good time and bsing about what discs they're throwing and hole distance ect it would go a lot different..feels forced and changes the mood for us and the other guys behind the mic. If you and Simon do one again and the flow is good we'll hear Simon talking as much as AJ just like if we were walking behind you 2 on the course listening in.☺ Great shooting and vid!!!👍👍👍

[@PapaSnurp]

Avery, please listen to literally any of the other commentators. I appreciate what you are trying to do, but nearly everything about the way you are doing it is distracting and almost makes me want to mute it.
