2021 Discraft Great Lakes Open | R1F9 FEATURE | Conrad, Hammes, Wysocki, Klein | Jomez

[@paladin313]

I just started playing this sport as a pastime. I cannot believe how incredibly helpful, encouraging, and friendly this community is. It is also addicting. I can't wait for the next time I can play.

[@youtubename8080]

Stay after it brother! I found it a year or so before the post quarantine boom and it’s been so heartwarming to see so many new faces on the course. Nothing I love to see more than people finding new ways to put the phone down and go outside

[@Darry420]

Same here but the league players in my area are not so encouraging lol I've seen fights and stuff at our main course lol but despite that it is so addicting it is my favorite outside activity and I have been going 3 to 4 times a week for 2 months it truly is an amazing sport to play

[@jerseylife8701]

Same way here man. Disc golf is how I’ve made all my adult friends lol such nice people and similar mindsets

[@TwBurt]

I started playing a few years ago but then stopped and forgot about and just picked it up again recently. I hate winter because I can’t play!

[@youtubename8080]

@@Darry420 no I hear you brother, there are always bad apples. Some bozo was choking his puppy and hitting it real bad at the course a few weeks back, nobody else had the balls so I yelled at him to stop. idiot tried to fight me because I said don’t abuse your puppy 😂

[@ryman97893]

Uli's look over to Jerm at the very beginning when Jerm says "my good buddy Paul Ulibarri" is just so heartwarming 0:23

[@martin_wilson81]

Conrad goin all out, sacrificing life & limb to get a birdie! This dude is the definition of great disc golf! Love it!

[@maxm.2358]

That is the definition of a foot fault...

[@Mochila03]

@@maxm.2358 Disagree, though I know it's contentious. The rule says "After having released a putt, the player must demonstrate full control of balance behind the marker disc before advancing toward the target." No doubt that he doesn't demonstrate full control of balance by falling, and if that were the whole rule, I'd agree it was a foot fault. Except it comes with the added clause "before advancing toward the target." Meaning that as long as you fall backwards (or in his case, along the line), you can establish balance first after falling, then advance, and not be at fault.

[@thanziep]

I love these sky drone overviews of the holes. It really shows how massive some of the holes are and adds to the awe of the shots.

[@discgolfcoolness]

This production is just absolutely incredible. Jomez puts *a lot* of work into their coverage!

[@davidj9033]

I appreciated the interview of the tourney director, great insight!

[@chuckyarbrough2417]

You guys are the best commentary in disc golf by a big margin. Keep it up!

[@HOLYdEYEver]

Paul. Jeremy. Bless you both. You two are amazing. Tell Nate we miss him.

[@prattacaster]

Conrad still throwing THE disc, I freakin love it.

[@kimmomatikainen1843]

Why wouldn't he throw it? He has been beating it in since he got it and it is one of the most important discs in his bag. It would be kind of dumb and harmful to his game not to use it. I know that some people retires hole in one discs, but I don't see a reason why to do that. Why not, if they have replacements for it. If you have a disc that works, use it.

[@prattacaster]

@@kimmomatikainen1843 I agree, I'd keep using it. I think many people believe he should retire it. It's a piece of plastic

[@ouvuu]

Might be. He has the replica prototypes in his bag too, so that might not be THE disc.

[@marshallpeters7174]

If I ever aced a hole, I'd definitely keep throwing that disc. If it worked once, it might again.

[@ouvuu]

@@MuddyPuttersDG I mean, that was a sneaky way to intro the commemorative shirt.He did say during that practice on a different throw that he was throwing the replica, so he has at least one replica in his bag in addition to "the disc". I'm not saying he isn't using "the disc" regularly, just that we'd have no way to know.

[@ulrichvonstomp6031]

I lol'd at the airplane sound in the background when Ricky threw his T-shot on 3!!

[@LukaC231]

Dude James' full commitment to not foot fault, that was sick!

[@nautilusshell940]

Pretty sure that was a foot fault. Didn't maintain balance

[@Timperry42]

@@nautilusshell940 The rule is demonstrate balance before moving in front of your lie, not maintain balance.

[@mercilpb]

I'm confident that's still a fault by the letter of the rule but you still love to see the effort

[@Timperry42]

@@mercilpb Just depends whether he touched down in front of his lie. They were convinced he was behind it.

[@jonahkoehlert8747]

By the rules I think it’s technically a fault because he wasn’t balanced but he did stay behind the mark until it hit the chains so nobody is going to call him on it

[@descubriendoeldiscgolf998]

Love the new edition with the disc used and their numbers. I learn a lot viewing how they throw each one. Many thanks

[@aileenflynn7143]

Who needs the Olympics when you have Jomez?

[@Luci-rv1hl]

Would be dope for disc golf to be in the olympics though

[@AYE-BE]

Love waking up at 8AM est to some Jomez being posted 😭

[@Top547-]

I like the course a lot better with the changes the director did a great job!

[@marshallpeters7174]

I don't really know the course, but yeah, it's a beautiful place. I appreciate him doing away with the artificial OB. Looks like a brutal course, though, with all the elevation.

[@thesledgehammerblog]

This is particularly interesting to watch because the DGLO coverage just randomly popped up in my KZbin recommendations about this time last year, which is what got me to start watching disc golf.

[@Gazelle0078]

[@DerekInTheFront]

I really hope the year end videos includes a supercut just of all of James Conrad SloMez

[@tylerball9600]

Oh God hole 8 was one of the most brutal things I’ve seen in disc golf.

[@DiscAnt86]

I was thinking the same thing! That basic was just being dirty!!

[@Postermaestro]

the putts were bad though, too high, way too much speed and not diving

[@tylerball9600]

@@Postermaestro While I agree to an extent it doesn’t change the fact. Conrad’s was high but still 4 to 6 inches under the band and Klein’s had some speed but Rick putts much harder on almost every putt.

[@Postermaestro]

@@tylerball9600 Ricky putts way more nose down and pretty much never on an upwards trajectory into the basket and that's why. I think baskets are fine, the only miss I really don't like are dead center spit outs. There is some speed and angle control involved, you shouldn't be rewarded for missing your line that badly, kinda like regular golf.

[@tylerball9600]

@@Postermaestro Why don’t they look into narrowing the chain width but increasing the basket width by a few inches? Am I dumb to think that it would make putting more fair? Most pole spit outs would be negated if the basket was a bit wider but by decreasing the chain width it would require more precision. Maybe I’m dumb.

[@bobbyshizz2138]

Big Jerm and Uli never fail to make me laugh. Love the commentary.

[@ChrisCoffeeCrypto]

So is 26:06 a foot fault? I've always believed that if you didn't maintain balance inside the circle even behind your lie it's a stroke and I believe Jerm even refers to that. I am genuinely curious of what would have been the correct call.

[@reluctantbeating]

Yep I agree. Stance violation. Not sure why the card didn’t call it. He did not maintain balance on a putt in the circle. Good to be king I guess 😀

[@reluctantbeating]

I actually think James wanted to be called on it. He kind of invited the call.

[@DBZ5150]

The recent poker references have been a great touch to the videos.

[@derekbroekhoven5498]
