Incredible work, Matty O. Keep it up! Bogey free tournament is impeccable… So happy to see Matt do so well amongst all these youngsters and love watching him on lead card… *As always, thank you, JoMez!!!*

[@dalereinhold640]

Nobody catches sunglasses 🕶️ without batting an eye in rhythm better than Matty! Smooth operator! 😎

[@AndyHoltzIsPopular]

49:42 AB leaving Matty O hanging. Brutal.

[@RUZTY1311]

He gave him a huge smile and hug right before that though so I just think his emotions made him skip the fist bump on accident lol

[@thomashoupt3386]

Understandable after the hug he didn't notice, but it was brutal to watch 😂😂

[@daeganacevedo8080]

The hug into a fist bump is high risk maneuver.

[@hotdogandahayride9823]

Not even close to brutal. Watch it again.

[@AndyHoltzIsPopular]

@@hotdogandahayride9823everyone else can read the joke. Wild.

[@dowhathappens89]

Is there a more iconic shot than Matty O throwing a shot with a raccoon in the foreground?!?

[@seymourglass26]

Must have felt like Alabama woods golf.

[@codymoreland4496]

Matt O. Must be the most long-term consistent disc golfer to ever play on tour.

[@ClarkPotter]

I feel like for as long as I've been watching he's been world#~5. I followed his card in-person on the last day here and enjoyed watching him for the first time. He putts weird. 10:25 9 10th from the right in back there with the blue shirt, grey shorts, arms crossed 😎

[@seymourglass26]

@@ClarkPotter It's all weird, but it works so well that I want to try intentionally air-bouncing shots. Man's a legend and it's shocking that he's currently at the top of his game, potentially getting better.

[@Grannyknockers]

He’s been 1000+ rated for over 20 years. Let that sink in.

[@michaelmartin7247]

We’ve been running tournaments in his hometown for 20 years and he won the first one we threw (and many more). The last time any of our guys beat him, he was 13.

[@dustman96]

It's painful to watch Adam get right there so many times and struggle to finish out. I appreciate his sportsmanship with AB at the end.

Great JoMez coverage as always! Love the way you've been working in the check-ins this season & coverage just keeps feeling more 'professional' every season, even when I can't imagine JoMez being any better. Thanks!!

[@putkipihvi324]

Stokely on the leaderboard! 💪

[@seymourglass26]

He seemed to be strong all tournament. Great to see. Man's literally in the hall of fame for disc golf now and he's far from retirement, haha.

Great shooting Barela! Matty O killing it! Thank you for letting buy a maiden out of your car bro!

Time to get AB that major. AB Vs Gannon new Ricky Vs Paul for the next ten plus years. Love where the game is.

[@DESR1995]

7 of 12 Elite Series played this season have been won by either Anthony or Gannon. What an incredible rivalry! They're still so young too; we're in for great disc golf for years to come!

[@kingchuckfinley]

Raccoons are nocturnal, weird to see them out on the fairway Edit: Thanks Uli for addressing that situation

[@JustinWayneDawg]

Meh. It's not unheard of to see them during the day, though.

[@kingchuckfinley]

@@JustinWayneDawg true, but animal will probably kill them, because rabies is terrifying.

[@seymourglass26]

@@kingchuckfinley Luckily, this one was minding its own business and probably just hungry. Still, oddly calm around people, but I guess disc golf courses are mostly non-violent.

That's some pun you got there. It would need the right stamp to make it pop, but it certainly has legs.

Evan has a unique tempo with both his sidearm and backhand. He really slows down on that second to last step.

[@tdunn779]

When people say “ it’s over for so and so “ like Mattt O, makes zero sense, this is disc golf. What happened to Gannon on hole 17 proves what I always tell people, this is disc golf, it’s never over until it’s over

@JomezPro if I were to subscribe for the European open is it possible to watch next day coverage on KZbin? I want to cast it to my tv. I know it's common on Patreon to have private unlisted videos for Patreon so I was wondering how that worked with dgn / jomez.

[@jukkaalanen]

Fun fact: no more buncr rule on hole 16 at the Beast (normal OB rules + DZ). So at least that won't trip up AB anymore.

[@natebell4764]

13 bux?

[@untrustworthyshelfing9953]

It's insane. We have a young player on pace for a record season, and this is what he's pulling in from winnings. I hope Discraft is making it sweet for him, but for the international sport that this is, they gotta sweeten the pot. That said, I am not sure where they would pull the funds from. Live coverage of the sport is still really bad and the attendance is never so substantial.

[@natebell4764]

@untrustworthyshelfing9953 I think if we want to be pushing this sport forward we need to focus on infrastructure. I think you are right about traction online. Dgn needs to start getting fiber into courses and probably coming down in price until they do. The footage last I knew wasn't better than super Nintendo graphics when in motion. And I don't know much about spectating other than having course design catered to spectating in more places so the tour can go to different areas.

[@MDSF90]

Never thought I’d hear Uli give a raccoon breakdown… Glad to have the little known tidbit of knowledge! Honestly, who would’ve thought that daytime foraging is apparently only conducted due to the trash panda’s recent offspring reproduction?! 😂 Thank you, Paul!

He's a very roller coaster season. If he can get consistent he will be in the conversation for sure. But it's going to take years of consistent play. Mcbeth Wysocki Heimburg are all way higher than him in the Goat conversation

Jerm is 100% right about the odd raccoon behavior. I hope those little guys are doing alright, because they don't appear obviously diseased outside of a slightly thin tail. No big suggestions, because putting a feeder in the woods away from the course might be a disaster in other ways, but I'm rooting for the trash pandas of the world.

[@busterschannel4794]

What a great round. The only terrible thing is hole 17 is total garbage. They need to change the hole. After coming out of the woods they need to clear out along the right side tree line and tuck the basket in to the right.
