The Story - Foundation Disc Golf

This is a look into the story of Foundation Disc Golf, how it got started, and where it's headed in the future.
Director: Silas Isaacson

[@Born2Lead4U]

*Part of* The Story - Foundation Disc Golf. You kind of left out the whole Zak and Paul departures.

[@cpapaleo84]

This video gave me chills!! Hunter, I cannot wait to see you on ESPN/ABC/NBC... All the major outlets broadcasting disc golf! Amazing mindset on the future! You guys are crushing it.

[@krestophvon-spake9493]

I miss zach... js

[@jaimetonycardenas]

This is an incredible video Silas..!!!! You hit this out of the park and literally makes me like Foundation even more…!!! And I am already a die hard fan haha

[@kmd4742]

What happened to Zack and when did Trevor come in?

[@adamjorgensen2950]

I'm happy to see Zach get referenced in this. I've been watching since those days and obviously things went sideways but I'm glad he hasn't been left out. Thanks Silas

[@maximcasella2830]

Same here man. I miss Zach. I wish we knew what actually happened with him

[@badass447]

What happened

[@DMB2K12]

@@badass447 They bought him out, made him sign an NDA. He did some vids with his wife on his own channel for a bit, but have not heard from him after that.

Great work Silas. I love short form documentary style videos like this. You absolutely killed it.

[@billcoulter1984]

Great to hear the backstory! At 65 Im probably not your target demographic but I love your videos and podcasts. Im retired and play 3-4 days a week, 27-36 holes a day. Loving it and getting great exercise!

[@chrism4008]

Man, im jealous!! Im trying to get good enough to do it as my job, because its incredibly unlikely ill ever be able to retire, the way things are going 😂😂😂

[@NaCl_zzz]

"One of my friends paul" haha didnt mention world champion, i like it

[@easy3discgolf144]

Short story: Thanks Paul and Brodie ;)

[@nesking7029]

Umm... We need a Trevor, Konner, and Silas intro as well! Great video.

[@DiscgolfRobban]

Man this really makes me wish i was a part of this group of guys, i really envy this kind of fun work that you have. More like a tight group of friends instead of co-workers. Also you guys always put a smile on my face.😌

[@haigis04]

I loved this! I love seeing the backstory on how Foundation came about. I hope there are more videos like this. Great job Silas!

[@markplymale]

This was a really great video Silas! Hunter is a really smart guy and bringing in Brodie was a great move. Also not gonna lie I'm pretty jealous of the Foundation team. They seem to genuinely like working and spending time with one another which is so cool to see. Been a supporter of Foundation for years now and can't wait to see how it continues to grow!

[@TrashPandaDiscGolf]

Great work Silas 👏 Always dig the behind the scenes stories!

[@docxen]

wonder who those other social media ppl they are wanting to bring in might be?

[@silasisaacson9513]

Thanks so much!

[@sashasashasashasasha]

I didn't know you had your own channel Silas. I just subscribed. Great job with this video. I've been watching Hunter and Trevor since 2019 and I didn't know it at the time that I was watching the beginning of something very special. Tell Brody I'm bummed he didn't do the Creators' Cup this year. I loved seeing my favorite KZbin disc golf creators all in one video. What a unique treat. I know most of you guys (if not all) are Christians and that also just warms my heart. Way to go, and God's blessings!

[@silasisaacson9513]

Thanks! I’m hoping to do more on my channel!

[@nicolaiberg6579]

This was great! Foundation videos are daily highlights for me.

[@christopherdavis826]

Take foundation podcast's to the next level,,get rid of that Trevor guy,, definitely holding ya back from greater heights

[@myfinancialjourney1]

This was a fantastic video Silas! All the foundation guys are genuinely great to watch, its awesome to see the guys in front of the camera branching out and growing their own channels as well as keeping up with the Foundation content. You all look like you have a blast when you punch in to work everyday! Keep it up!

[@silasisaacson9513]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@ninjasmooshr]

I love the narrative that Brodie not only helped foundation's sales but his influence pushed everyone else at foundation to build a brand and then sell that brand to US... or to me... I love foundation Heck as I post this I'm gluing velcro on my paratropper bag so I can rep the Hyzer club and Robbie.

[@jessehodge3281]

Incredible documentary! I watched the foundation podcast where the dog got on to the ranger team for lone star and decided why the heck not lol. This documentary has made me decide to go ahead and purchase all my discs through foundation now.

[@kenfouch1684]

You guys have kept the spark of disc golf alive for me. I appreciate the hard work put in by the whole team. You ever need another goofy personality for a vid give me a holler lol. I’d love to be involved in something like this.

[@chris-yv7hp]

What happened to Paul? Zack? OTB did it better..

[@kevinbrandt991]

The Story - while glossing over Zach and Paul

[@josephtalley8092]

why did this take three days to reach my feed?

[@Set42]

I've been a huge Brodie fan and he brought me to foundation. Just watching you guys grow from the start has been so awesome!

[@Philip.Eriksson]

ngl i kinda miss trevor

[@modgmodg6987]

Biscardi is missed.

[@lukerichter690]

This was a great doc! Awesome job Silas!

[@leastselfawarepotassium]

So I’m getting from this that Zac was never a part owner of the business? I always wondered what happened there with him and Hunter being the initial faces of Foundation. Excellent work Silas.

[@cbilljohnson]

Yeah I always wondered why Zac left. Iiked him as well.

[@leastselfawarepotassium]

@@cbilljohnson yeah it was probably explained somewhere I just never kept up. I know it was a big controversy at the time.

[@tylerking7890]

Absolutely love this. Thank you for creating and sharing it, Silas!!!

[@silasisaacson9513]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@tylerking7890]

@@silasisaacson9513 For sure! Looking forward to another video!

[@BrendanHodgens]

Absolutely wild to think this PROFESSIONAL video had anything to do with a college grade. You're a champ! Using two cameras for the interviews to make them more dynamic yet placing them in a static warehouse space was brilliant.

[@psychologic1933]

02:52 That Was A Dirty Throw From Brodie. (I've Never Watched Ultimate Before.)

[@docxen]

Great video. I wonder if ppl are like me and like the pros but enjoy more seeing ppl more our level (the every man) selling discs. Like tyler brickley, disc golf answer man, etc.

[@PheasantE]

One area foundation could grow big from is becoming the face of college disc golf. Make it a bigger deal than it is, position yourself to be the primary retailer for it. Run multiple tournament series for colleges. Push rivalries. Put the content online.

[@dongorecke544]

Great job silas!!! Very well spoken hunter and brodie 👏 thank you for the peek behind the curtain and letting fans know where this came from! Looking forward to being a part of the foundation movement

[@JarrettWBass]

How do I get a Brodie autograph disc? I gave mine to my friends daughter. Brodie is her favorite so I just gave it to her. Made her day

[@seandersonful]

What happened with Zach? I remember one day he just wasn’t in videos anymore.

[@fischertify]

@foundationdiscgolf: when do you open a DG (web)-shop in europe?

[@Christopher-Lenz]

Super impressed with Hunter

[@tuvatom00]

I hope the new content personalities will bring some diversity to the Foundation Network? Lots of growth opportunities there!

[@gregreece2826]

You guys have the best content bar none. Everything is appointment viewing for me. I hope you’re successful beyond your wildest dreams. I would love to hear some of the stories of personal change though. Is that bad. Thanks for everything.

[@adriantaylormusic985]

Wow I love foundation. Also GREAT job with this video Silas, you killed it man

[@disc.seeker1520]

Definitely would be awesome to have disc golf be a job and get paid to do disc golf

[@squatology7509]

Great video Silas. Its very interesting to hear this side from a business perspective.

[@dudedecent8805]

Awesome video I learned a lot. I wish you had touched more about the meaning of foundation and talked more about the Christian aspect and the role your faith takes in this.

[@JonttuOG]

Why everything should be god related? I think It is stupid to push religion to every aspect of things.

[@dudedecent8805]

@@JonttuOG I might have come across wrong I don’t think everything they do should be God related but I know they are Christians and just noticed that they didn’t even mention it in the slightest. Religion is bad, Jesus hated it. Relationship is different.

[@leastselfawarepotassium]

@@dudedecent8805nah this dudes off base. They went to a very religious school and they talk about their religion all the time so it’s not unreasonable to assume it would come up here.

[@judasblewit]

​@@JonttuOGof course you would because you aren't religious.

Great video on the history. Brodie being involved is a plus or minus. For me, a minus. Though I wish him the best in his endeavors.
