2023 LWS Open At Idlewild | MPO R2B9 | Gossage, Babcock, Scott, Buhr | JomezPro Disc Golf

[@GPO_Studios]

Direct quote from the Evan Scott last night when the PDGA officials tried to stop the card before teeing off on 17: "Don't worry, I throw this tee shot with my eyes closed anyway"

[@josephpatterson1646]

“We strike outward from the Pit” had me rolling 😂

[@mmanningie4220]

Bobby invents the "Glomez" highlight!

[@ericfirkey9860]

Calvin is in the lead card at least one round of nearly every tournament he plays in. What a stud.

[@awwitsHurts]

@kevinkelly6352 He is not allowed to trashtalk his cardmembers, that's why

[@isaacwoodward440]

This the is the single greatest round of commentary in Jones history. Laughing out loud, by myself in the car.

[@michrisoft]

You streaming jomez coverage like a podcast?

[@JeremyGolfs]

I started losing it when he said “and Calvin heimburg with his approach” 😂😂

[@JordanPike]

Big Jerm: "And this is Evan. I think he's going flick roller, right next to the firefly." 😂

[@paul-michaelvincent7123]

I cannot believe they are finishing this round. But I love the visual of Gannon of all ppl running to his next shot.

[@esahla80]

Gotta love that Gannon & Gavin "Ho-ho-ho-ho!" face-to-face reaction to Gannon's put on 15th 😆

[@TomTrustworthy]

Hole 18's coverage would have been a perfect time to see bigfoot and a UFO. The blurriness was perfect for some evidence :D

[@dekcode2824]

I tought I was watching ghost hunter for a second.

[@jacobhoglind1763]

5:16 Bannon Guhr, Gavin's caddy, pictured standing next to Gannon Buhr. Both with arms crossed and wearing a black hat with white emblem

[@86Harrell]

holy crap laughing my butt off at the intro. "I'm Diamondback"!!! XD

[@SheepyG-DGV]

Gannon running up 18 reminds me of a college level tournament we had for ball golf. This dude was playing super well, had the outright lead the whole tournament, it was getting dark as we got to 16 and we all decided to play on, this guy shot an 8 and a 7 on 16 and 17, got to 18 and tee off uphill to a blind green. He never found his ball and took a 5 for re teing. He ended up 3rd place.

[@erakfishfishfish]

You can see the fireflies on 18. The lens aperture was so open they looked like lighthouses.

[@tecreates2384]

Looking at the ISO grain on 13, it’s late, I’m surprised they went to 14

[@DiscAnt86]

This was the most fun round I’ve ever watched! Y’all had me laughing the whole time!

[@DjFenixSWE]

Great commentary, as always. But i think...what we all here want to see is YOUR SNAKE FACES on a disc. That is a keeper.

[@RoastedHVAC]

This. Yes please. 💯 would buy 😂

[@jonathanmeinert]

Gotta love disc golf on a Sunday

[@chatzivasilis]

​@@kevinkelly6352what is this comment even doing on a discgolf video?

[@bryanday4274]

I always ONLY praise the disc golf gods on Sunday. From 7am until about 2pm, disc golf and only disc golf.

[@spoookyspencer]

Great commentary. Big Jerm is great!

[@obhmusic]

For people who have known him for years, yes. But he is not good enough to bring attention to the sport. If this coverage was on ESPN it would not have been a good thing for disc golf. He says to many dumb, irrelevant, unfunny things.

[@JazzInATinCan]

@@obhmusic then it's real good that he is on jomezpro. I think jomez and these guys' commentary has been a part of what has launched this sport through the roof during corona. And I think they have been - and are- real good for the sport when it's on this specific promotion. I loved the commentary as a newcommer and all the friend I have who have started recently feel the same way.

[@michaelyahner6695]

I was laughing so much during this coverage, I don’t care that it isn’t technically proficient or “espn ready” it fits the sport at this juncture in my opinion. we can’t take ourselves to serious, we ain’t gettin out of this thing alive.

[@horiama]

Best commentary group ever. How enriching for my life :)

[@eyeonthecourtroom]

Slo mo footage of Issac from round 1 after hole 10 lol.

[@jasonclifford3164]

Was looking for this comment haha @ 3:51

[@Griphen84]

Nice to see Big Jerm on a heater during a part of the round. Great putting! 7 birides in a row.

[@bennewman4627]

Am I crazy or is the B footage behind the graphic going between holes 10 and 11 showing Isaac Robinson making a putt and not anyone on the card JoMez is following? Is that a thing that happens that I've just never noticed? Timestamp: 3:50

[@brennankelly1]

The modified night vision doesn't do justice on how dark it was on 18. I was following that card and gannon couldn't find his caddy or see what discs were in his bag without a flashlight.

[@Billyboy521]

I really enjoyed this round of commentary. Keep it up guys!

[@dgvjonni]

Thanks to this coverage, a new name has been given for playing a wooded course in the dark: "Mirkwood golf"

[@edwardsommer9527]

At 31:10 are those bats swooping around towards the clearing? Night mode at Idlewild

[@spoookyspencer]

Definitely bats

[@MichaelJCurl]

It sure looks like bats

[@nicklogsdon9182]

It was kinda funny when Evan’s tee shot went OB on hole 13 and it showed the OB graphic and then everyone in the booth went “safe!” Hahahaha

[@brandonbecker4479]

Same thing happened for Ricky’s drive on the same whole yesterday 😂

[@RobWirdWachsen]

they can still edit the video after the commentators talk over it, so chances are they had forgot to put up the OB graphic for them

[@emjackdad]

Hole 18 commentary by the Visionless Vipers! Really enjoyed this commentary!

[@daveyfadess]

Cold blooded commentary...

[@benaussem3859]

Ngl i knew exactly who Uli meant when he called Gavin "Bobby". It just fits so naturally and i didn't even question it. I was actually surprised when i remembered his name doesn't have a Bob in it.

[@CJski]

It’s pretty well known that people call him Bobby

[@myronnorthrup6880]

I actually made myself fishing lures out of creepy crawlers and caught lots of bass on them, thanks for the memory bank check Big guy

[@dustman96]

You guys can say anything because they really need you.

[@Iliyena87]

More glow! They should PDGA-approve some kind of glow sticker or a 2h diode-sticker for the underside of the discs ^_^

[@Kryptic513]

Creepy Crawlers throws me way back. Nice

[@averyhenningsen8197]

Just go play the first two holes in the morning? Little warmup holes before final round

[@erakfishfishfish]

From the players’ perspectives, if they blow the horn at 8:15, they’ll have to resume super early in the morning, which means that doesn’t leave time to get back to their vans/hotels/etc, have dinner, and sleep before getting up extra early the next morning. Finishing the round super late isn’t ideal either, but we now know which one the players prefer.

[@averyhenningsen8197]

Anyone peep Issac Robinson in whole tens blurred putting slow mo

[@fruitofthemycelium]

Love seeing Big Jerm's name in the mix!!

[@jamiecraighead8423]

Wow. Calvin on a final lead card. So hard to imagine.

This is wild

[@JazzInATinCan]

I love the snake pit.

[@kritterfox]

Mmmmm you guys are always entertaining, be it the big sexy bears or the snakepits :D

[@llenn298]

Can you give us an insight of how playing a hole unfolds regarding the preparation of each player for every shot? Like is there a timeslot to choose your line and than 30sec to make the throw or how does it work?

[@NaughtyPrincessfkhandles]

I think its like if you arent too slow to your lie, when you arrive there you have 30 seconds figure out what to do and then throw. And if you go to your lie in snails pace and everyone waiting for you they probably time you before you get to the disc. Dont know if this is 100% correct but close enough

[@playdiscgolf1546]

Nice putting by Jerm this round

[@wyattcupp687]

I’m not an expert on the new rules but if I could take a guess, I think you can only receive one warning and then the next is a stroke. In the case of this card, the first warning was directed to the whole card for slow pace of play (with or without any given player exceeding 30 seconds). I the second warning was directed to Gannon, but it wasn’t an immediate stroke despite it being a second warning because, and this is just a guess, is that they regarded the card as it’s own entity to be warned, and so it was technically a warning to a separate person.

[@tyim]

I was spotting 16 in the dark around the green and I couldn’t see the basket from 50 feet. I also think I saw my car drive by on 18.

[@scottbarber422]

I literally just returned to watching this on Hole 16 once I got in bed. My wife is asleep in bed next to me and I thought to myself "this lighting works out perfect to not disrupt her sleep" less than 30 seconds before Big Jerm made that comment 😂

[@Joonaman123]

11:50 are they watching the same footage or what?

[@jwygo1189]

At first I didn’t like that they got a warning for slow play, then I saw that the chase card was through 13 when this group finished 9? That’s just assuming the graphics are correct. If so, that’s absolutely terrible. How do you get a 3 hole gap within 9 holes? If this were a golf tournament people would be losing their minds

[@zomgelok]

I was thinking the same thing. I know that the commentary was complaining about the warning but if they had kept pace then maybe you don't have to play with night vision goggles on

[@TheFloridian5]

I think Paul is more of a pygmy rattlesnake than a diamondback 😉

[@geraldjasinski6310]

Is it just me or did they have glow tape on the pole?

Lead card having to play in the dark is unfortunate. When do we see portable stadium lights marketed to disc golfers?

[@rexrocks471518]

so dark I had to turn my brightness up to watch

In ball golf you only need one player to say they can't see due to darkness and the round is postponed...pretty easy rule to uphold

@@andrewb5519 I have been a spotter from 8 am. to almost 10 pm. That was a long day and most of it in a rain. Two other days in that tournament ended fortunately already at 8.30 pm. Sometimes 1,5 hours without any players because of slow groups.

The great thing, about a lot of the volunteers, is that they are more than willing to go above and beyond. Spotters, tournament volunteers, and cleaning volunteers, need way more appreciation!

[@martymodus7205]

The JoMez camera guys are usually so good, but I'm surprised they didn't adjust the exposure properly to compensate for the poor lighting. I'd rather see some grain from high ISO than such underexposed video, and this is that rare situation when auto ISO can be your friend. Oh well, hopefully there won't be a need to hone those skills in the future.

[@akmadsen]

I think they'd maxed out the ISO already. Looking at the contrast between the sky and the light from the houses on #18, it looks like it was actually dark (not just dusk or "poor lighting"), and I'm not sure there's more they could have done save for setting up huge lights on the course.

[@justin_tang]

One other thing to note is that Jomez is using cameras that are capturing video at 60 frames a second. At this brightness level most photography cameras would be using a much slower shutter speed.

[@hellowellallen]

I do remember creepy crawlers.
