2024 IN THE BAG UPDATE!!

[@oftankoftan]

Oh look, an ITB where the player actually throws the discs! It's almost like that's what everyone wants!

[@BIGBRY4]

100%

[@samuelcooper3722]

His mvp itb with cuts from tournaments was the gold standard.

[@tonydombovy5207]

This is how everyone should be doing an in the bag

[@Simeneri]

Ricky’s newes ITB is also very informative, wish he’d show more throws though

[@amywest3282]

Simon reinvented “in the bag” videos with this. Well done!

[@hiddenleaf414]

I do love this in the bag video but people have been doing these types of in the bag videos where they actually throw the disc after talking about them for a couple of years now.

[@amywest3282]

@@hiddenleaf414 totally valid! I guess I just haven’t seen many in depth reviews (aside from a new mold or signature series). My apologies.

[@theemonegro]

​@@hiddenleaf414who has done that I liked this one and would like to watch more like it

[@TheGiraffehead]

@@hiddenleaf414 I see what you are saying, but there is more to this video than talk and throw. The prediction of flight and real time attempt showing his knowledge of each disc was fun to watch. So while, the talk and throw has been done before, this style was very different.

[@i2Shea]

@@hiddenleaf414 I havent seen too many of these at all. Maybe 1-2 and I have binged these on YT forever.

[@QuestforStone]

About time we got to see Simon on “Shot of the Day.” Good to see Casey drop his mug in there too.

[@MixtapeXx]

Shows what’s in the bag..actually throws and explains all the discs in the bag. Bad ass!! Always going above and beyond for us 🍻

[@gardenstateflatlandb]

Something I always wished people would do with their In The Bag vids is throw the discs. Finally! Well done sir!🙌

[@MegaLaban12345]

There are tons of itbs with throws

[@gardenstateflatlandb]

@@MegaLaban12345 Guess I just haven't seen them.

[@beeroutdoorsbriggs8125]

"But you don't even bag a theory"😂

[@samuelcooper3722]

So many great quotes this video.

[@raidonbay]

Yeah, I enjoyed that one 😂

[@johnmedema4104]

I have a theory. Super flippy

[@i2Shea]

Love that you decided to throw discs, explain the flight and what to expect when you throw them. Very well done Simon. Good luck in your next tournaments!

[@allenhammitt5092]

My favorite MPO player "In the Bag"........ Now, I need one from my favorite FPO player. Silva!!! Keep it up! The sport needs ambassadors like you!

[@gabelstapler19]

She did one on Facebook (probably actually Instagram) that was less than 2 minutes long.

[@gogananation]

Silva: "I like the disc"

[@d4v1dTV]

Really think Simon should try the Reactor, hopefully he does, they fade a tad more stable than the Hex and have less turn

[@mattwill23]

I actually came to the comments to see if anyone asked this. Lol

[@SSJThanatos]

I can't remember what video, but he said a while ago that he tried the Reactor and couldn't connect with it.

[@andrewallenpainter1616]

Reactor rocks

[@MrKevlarkent]

im sure he has but, like he has said, hex is one of his favourite discs of all time. makes no sense for him to change that one, and also like he has said, he likes to keep it simple so he wont add another disc between his more stable hex and the pyro

[@danielberrett2179]

I may need one. I'm good when I throw straight or hyzer with hex, but If I try to turn it mine does not seem to want to fade back. Sounds like I could put a Reactor on ani and have it come back better. (or "skill issue")

[@somainevent1]

My favorite part is Simon talking how far from the pin he is 😂 “we’re closer to 200 right now. Let’s move back 80ft. Ok, we moved back 60ft.. we’re atleast 320 now, right?”

[@brianreigle7905]

Really liked seeing what's in Simon's bag and then watching him explain each one and then throw each one. Very cool and helpful.

[@hyrulehyzers]

Only been playing since April '23 but I'm a major information junkie and love learning new skills. When my friend convinced me to throw a round I quickly noticed two things - I was addicted and I had ALOT to learn. Before I knew who anyone was in the disc golf world I quickly gravitated to your videos because of the sincere love and almost child like enjoyment of the sport that you [unknowingly?] convey in them. Fast forward to Idlewild 2024 and I watched you and others be real people with real struggles doing your best to compete and entertain at the same time, while being endlessly scrutinized by us spectators. I think it's hugely understated the skill involved in performing with these pressures and still maintaining ones composure within reason. A person can throw far, can throw accurately, but to do that with any level of consistancy in the pro arena is an additional skill all its own. Bravo! I was fortunate enough to hang out with a guest you invited to to round 3, after dinner the night before. I learned that my admiration for your professionalism and down-to-earth realism were well founded. Meeting you and seeing your reaction to the shirt I made for myself with your logo made my whole weekend. Thank you.

[@donfite9269]

Good episode Simon. Great idea to throw the discs after stating how good they fly. Maybe other "in the bag" people will follow suit.

[@sladebygaming]

I really like your approach to the bag overall. I'm nearing a year into disc golf, trying to get my bag sorted out and starting looking at things as needing 3 discs in each disc range (Over, Under, Straight). I want to have the ability to change discs out and not be constantly "seasoning" new discs into the slots I need. Really you just have your one dimension that flies dramatically different from anything I could go buy from the store. Great video Simon, thanks for sharing!

[@itz_my.galaxy]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="848">14:08</a> "No I'm gonna nail that gap. Watch."🤣proceeds to nail that gap🔥

[@alanlundberg4534]

Thanks for the tour and the demonstrations. Excellent, down to earth explanation of your bag.

[@scbuckeye1267]

Love seeing you and Casey still buds

[@Mdjagg]

Neutron TimeLapse was such an anomaly, it burned over on forehand, but wouldnt flip on backhand. The Fission TimeLapse absolutely bombs. What a nice run. Hopefully MVP can repeat the same flight with the next run, but i bought three just in case.

[@kirk329]

Nice to see ya back 😉

[@KASIMIR6]

You really know how to make even in the bag video really good, not just talking but showing the flight of the discs also. Big fan from Finland good luck for the rest of the season!

[@batjeep5ter947]

My favorite throwing putter used to be Westside discs maiden in the vip plastic, but I had two of them stolen from me, so it was time for a new disc altogether. The day I went out looking was the day you dropped your first video throwing the proxy, so I thought I would give it a try based on how you described the feel of the disc. I ended up getting an eclipse max weight proxy, and it's quickly become my most reliable disc inside of 260'. I recently had my longest throw-in from just outside of 200' the other day with the proxy on a blind righty backhand with flat release to slight anhyzer drift and it held the turn all the way into the basket. Further solidifying that discs spot in my bag. The Envy is too touchy for what I would call an overstable putter. But I've only tried electron firm and the eclipse plastics. Some others may be more stable, but I'm sure someone else knows.

[@andrewhanson5944]

Very nice guy met him at idlewild took his time before tee to try to get everyone autographs and then stayed long after his round to make sure he met everyone he couldn’t get to. Wished more guys were like this

[@CleetusJones]

Looking great Simon, really fun type of in the bag. Love to see another one at the end of the season. Best wishes, AK

[@THEcognac1765]

From the very first time you threw that trail I have been checking my local shop for one and I finally got one shipped and I can't wait to go out this weekend and throw it!

[@TheCrushinger]

recently got me a Glow Proxy and im loving it for just pure straight shots

[@rileycomeaux3712]

This guys a genius, amazing idea for how to do an in the bag!

[@austingreen2463]

What a great bag! You sound like you feel comfortable with each disc. That is peak disc golf.

[@wilh.8999]

Proxy Gang checking in! Great video format for ITB.

[@gregorystewart1837]

Dude I LOVE that you actually throw them. Love it

[@Gauchograd99]

Still trying to figure out the Trail ... it is a really great straight flier both forehand and backhand. Just trying to figure how it works for me with various winds. As for the fission Time Lapse ... such a great disc at 163g where the neutron is just a wind beater. Love seeing bag videos where I can understand what does what for the pro so I can compare and understand what a mold I don't carry might do for me!

[@Nordkrafts]

Eeerm, Simon, kind of need you to come back to Estonia. The pixel you signed for me at the Edgf, I may have lost it to a lake.. Spent like a good 30 minutes fishing for it but it's a goner.. But man did it fly nice.

[@austing7820]

I got 2 aces last month with 2 different pixel been loving them

[@CR-zv5fp]

Bought a pyro with the link, love the Simon Telsa for big forehands. Trail is also amazing right now, MVP is killing it with the discs.

[@djbme83]

Some friends and I are planning a trip to Maple Hill in the middle of September. We're hoping to swing by and play the new Mile Marker course while we're there.

[@grimr550]

That panic was sick ❤❤❤

[@stmn346]

Can’t wait to see you back on tour Simon.

[@jojox97]

Awesome vid! Good luck at Idlewild, Simon!

[@Purrfected]

Soft Neutron Proxy!? Finally! Manged to get 3 so far for backup, my straight putter, using Rebirth Envy for slight overstable putter for me :)

[@Twistedroad2020]

Got proxy a year before you went to mvp. Was excited you loved it cause it’s Been a favorite ever since the first throw!

[@nmkloster]

In case anyone is looking for a Pixel to Judge comparison: I tried Pixels because all my Judges were worn and the numbers tell the story pretty well. Very very similar and just a touch more straight.

[@SubPar_13]

Just getting back from Germany from a deployment. Got a chance to play Leinen Los Disc Golf Course (Germany Championship course) while i was out there. Would love a chance to caddie for you at DGLO. I will be there all week.

[@jayden1674]

The thing about the pixels is they fold up real nice too 😂

[@dalereinhold640]

😂👏👏

[@petermullaney2888]

Love my Myahem for forehand flex shots, the Rhythm is an awesome fairway for my arm speed AND I've had good results with the Pixel this year. That said, I mostly bag Discraft (in ESP) + Innova (in champion or star) and don't know what I'd prefer for Axiom/MVP/Streamline plastic. Any chance you could do a breakdown of plastic types?

[@ReluctantAardvark]

Good to hear (and see) the OG camera man back

[@calvinpoon6945]

Nice shot! Sick Proxy ace!

[@brandongreen9381]

Can't wait to see you guys at the course opener. Already have tee times. Its gonna be sweet.i have a cd1 with the crush boys logo on it i would liked to have you sign.

[@striker3212]

Love the video. Crazy to see him not throw any time lapses. The fission one is in the bag but I don’t think he really throws it. Seems like kinda of a fail on that signature mold.

[@southtoe3607]

Silva Saarinen, I'd have to imagine, is contributing a good amount to Pixel sales

[@dalereinhold640]

Idk….photon sales don’t support that theory.

[@MegaLaban12345]

I’d say Simon contributes infinitely more

[@aftertheburial420]

simon on top of his game with the name of the plastic....ooop spoke too soon. haha

[@bellchattin]

some great putters for sure

[@discgolfbilly]

Best of Luck at Idlewild!.....and win your first major, the PDGA Worlds at Mcbeth's New London course!. You have the best discs from MVP Sports so now show the disc golf world how that Pixel will take down Idlewild, the PDGA Worlds, and the USDGC. That course you and Casey designed will be the site of a future PDGA Worlds. The MVP HD Portal you have on this course, as the ones at Maple Hill, and on my residential course are the very best!. Welcome back home Simon and hope you had a happy stay in Germany with your family there♥Sincerely, Bill M., PDGA #7378☺

[@bisonhappenstance]

I throw the soft pixel or the medium on fairly hot days sometimes. The firms have produced the worst and most frequent long roll-aways I have ever tossed. One other guy I know had the same experience. Someone check tournament coverage and build some roll-away stats for Simon, lol. The pixel is by far my favorite putter, and I am lately getting pretty darn good out to 45 feet. Switched from Nomad, Judge before that.

[@SpinandThrowDiscGolf]

Simon has figured out he can make a lot more money making videos than he ever did playing disc golf. Yes it is certainly possible to make a living from simply just being incredibly likable and talented. Good for you.

[@AnttiJuhani]

I have been huge glitch enjoyer for 7 months. Throwing all under 80m shots with it and its amazing. Friends think its funny when i take it out of my bag until i throw it to the bullseye😂

[@menbah]

We all love the Proxy! But I have NEVER seen the soft ones for sale!

[@Aiden-jk4ot]

[@PhoenixRugerRedBird]

Glad I could get that Dimension in your hands Simon. I know you lost 1 of the 3 (patent pending) Panics I gave ya, have you messed around with the other 2 at all? Also....the watermelon Pyro, you use it as a wall hanger? Goodluck this weekend brotha! #Hypeman 🤙

[@joshuafleming8215]

I'll be there for opening day, 8am tee time!

[@cameronbwatkins]

Casey is a man of the people, truly a plastic nerd like the masses. Listen to him talk about any manufacturer it's almost always like this haha

[@christopherstine1895]

As a beginner i would love to see you make a video where you build a bag for a beginner. But not just the standard 3 disc bag for beginners like maybe someone who is like 6 months or more in to disc golf.

[@reesesmith4910]

I love the hat. I want to get something like those for my disc golf team. Any idea what brand?

[@discgolfbilly]

Hi Simon, remember that You Tube you did a while back about USA vs. Germany ways of doing things, like getting the driver's license in Germany and no social small talk in the grocery store check out line. Please get in touch with Feli from Germany who lives in Cincinnati, OH and has a great You Tube channel with over 600K subscribers. She has a dual citizenship and it would be great for you and her to do a disc golf video in Cincinnati and has a Master's Degree from the University of Cincinnati, earned in 2018. She first came to the USA in 2016.☺Sincerely, Bill M. PDGA#7378, Uncasville, CT, promoting disc golf since 1993!

[@sinfernoo]

No Insanity, no Paradox, no Rhythm? Kinda surprised me tbh But I'm getting to this bag, I got like 21 with a small bit of other brands. Got a Grace bc it flies like a Trail, just got a trail, so now we got 2 basically haha Got a Cap Rap and Athena from Discraft and I think my only other one is the Pure I just got, trying to find a good putter for me. Also rly good at throwing upshots tbh. I take some stuff in and out like a River, Destroyer, Hades, Rollo, Sapphire, Slammer etc etc Just random stuff really for fun or stuff I don't care to lose instead of my bag lol

[@benwigginsbikes]

Finally!!! Also, how do you keep your Glitch from warping? I have never left my bag in a hot vehicle or anything but I am on Glitch number 3 and they have all warped.

[@johnnydarter]

Get yourself a Watt instead. I had the same problem w my Glitch warping. Watt is money & basically a max weight Glitch 175g w a touch less glide but laser straight. It's never leaving my bag.

gotta buy a proxy now, simon is a disc seller :)

[@winterbean]

Can you get a Hex done with the same stye stamp as the Proxy? that's sweet

[@McSlobo]

Those Fission Time Lapses are indeed understable. 11/5/-2.5/1.5 are my values based on the fact a 158g Star Wraith is beefier than this (I have 161g and 165g). Pretty much went to uphill shot only position. Could someone perhaps make either heavier (169+g) disc with its lower PLH or could the real Time Lapse mold (with its higher PLH) be used with Fission plastic too? I mean, the difference in PLH is big, and add the weight difference, and it's... a different disc altogether.
