2019 USDGC - Lead Card Final Round, Back 9 (Conrad, McMahon, Queen, Tamm)

[@TheSpinTVcom]

Thank you for tuning in to our 2019 USDGC Final Round Lead Card Coverage

[@johnevans4890]

Thanks for covering it! Good work

[@jordo613]

"Witnessed a 21 on that hole before". "That score is old enough to drink." lol great line

[@chefkda]

James winning the USDGC brought tears of joy.

[@cowutopia]

Jamie and the Champ were a fantastic commentary pair. Mr. Climo's voice is mesmerizing. Here's hoping we get to see more commentary by this duo! Very excellent coverage. Professionally put together, only a couple of glitches, and a great turnaround time. Thank you so much SpinTV for your hard work!

[@Slippy6582]

I am so happy for James Conrad and can´t believe it´s only his second win... That was exiciting to watch and got really close in the end :)

[@wormi27z]

Yup, he has sooo many top 3 even but finally more wins

[@Carbunkal]

Awesome seeing my favorite player win! He seems to always get nerves on the lead card.. you rarely see him on it twice in a row. I notice that anytime he has a killer score he does it from the 2nd or 3rd card.. hopefully this huge win will help calm his nerves and win big next year!

[@alexanderdull3876]

Congrats to James Conrad!!! I grew up in VA, so stoked to see him represent our state in the sport, and take home this grand title. Can't wait to see him play again soon!

[@mad4disk]

What an absolute treat listening to Ken Climo's commentary. NOBODY knows that course better than he .... just a true honest joy to listen to. Also some very excellent camera work throughout; good graphics as well. Might have been nice to know what the chase card was doing at some point prior to 18 but ....... a really enjoyable experience overall.

[@redwoodrivers]

Congrats, James! Great playing. So nice to see all your friends being so happy for your success.

[@broheme8922]

"Players are living life as they're on the tee pad to hole 17 like they've never been before." OMG, this course designer is seriously delusional.

Congrats James, this win hit me right in the feelers!

[@delailama736]

I got into this sport about 3 months ago. Conrad and Wysocki have been my favourite players from what I've seen. Conrad just seems to have such a great attitude, very happy for him.

[@jiveturkey4jesus]

Glad Conrad won, but this year seemed to be much less about who would seize the win and more about who could avoid losing.

[@chatzivasilis]

That's Winthorp for ya

That sounds like most year's at this tournament.

Finally Conrad pulls through and seals the deal on a big one! Love watching him play and stoked to see him get what he deserves. Albeit he had scared and worried on 17.

“united states sidearm champ” won by a dude who doesn’t throw sidearm. (admittably he does have an amazing turnover)

[@chapet5]

Great coverage and I'm super happy with the outcome here. Very deserved.

[@revpgesqredux]

Very good coverage. Ken Climo is a disc golf genius and able to succinctly express the clearest points. He is A+. The rest of the coverage is A-. if somehow Ken could be added to the A+ work of Jomez, that would be ideal. I think i would like to see Ken and Jamie do Jomez Live, and still have BigSexy do the Jomez edited videos. We in the disc golf community are blessed to have at least a half dozen top talented channels too. Disc Golf Guy. CCDG. and a few others. In the future it would be amazing if each one of these 6 or 7 talented and hard working channels could have a group... or maybe combine some of them to cover the first 4 or 5 groups. and then we would need a control room to toggle back and forth among them. I am not complaining, just dreaming about the future. If you haven't watched the Jomez version of this final round, do it. it is a work of art.

[@chrisvking6129]

great job james, you are so deserving of the win. all that watch and play disc golf with me are very excited for you. hopefully this is the start of something great for you.

[@hiltonbooth4889]

Another great tournament coverage, thank you to everyone at Spin TV for putting in the hard work and effort to bring this sport to as many people as possible. Can't wait for the next.

Huge congrats to James!! One of the most sympathetic and devoted guys out there 👍

[@johnharper3404]

Great performance, so many great thro's your da man with the arm also very nice to see a diff. champ up there and so deserving.

[@christophergomez2121]

The coverage was great, but hearing the same crap all 4 rounds from the course designers was redundantly excruciating🤦🏻‍♂️

[@chiebert290]

So true.

[@Pullapelle]

Agreed. Besides, the course is not that wonderful anyway. At some points, it feels artificially difficult, hole 17 beeing the most miscarried in that sense.

[@ogs1mpson609]

Wait, you’re not part of the Jomez crew are you? 😂 I dub thee “Chromez”

[@revpgesqredux]

thank you Lord for hte FF click

[@cathernroberts8032]

Why did we pick on Eagle on hole 17? All the OBs showed on his name, but he got the only par.

[@russellemerson9657]

Thanks for the great coverage and commentary. Jamie and the Champ make a great duo

[@johnnydarter]

Congrats James. Well deserved as you’ve been at the top all year. The sport is at the top of it’s game right now w all the talent on tour. Can’t wait to see what 2020 holds....maybe the Olympics in the near future???

[@jakeallen8156]

I loved hearing the champs commentary! Also loved to see James take the W! He has been fun to watch all season. As an extra bonus Jeremy and Nikko in 2nd! Wish I could see coverage of Jeremy. Great tournament.

[@bobbyswain7049]

Atta boy JC......well done my friend.........please find a way to get The Champ signed to a lifetime commentary deal.......hes the icing on the cake ladies and gentlemen

[@SoftwareSith]

Great coverage. Congrats to James!

[@aaronjacks7217]

Great coverage Jamie. I really enjoyed the insights from the champ. Only thing I'd like to see is updates of chase card scores down the stretch for greater context. But again, really professional and fun coverage.

[@bryantmack3]

Big congrats to James. Also, loved the Ken Climo commentary.

[@phreakerbythespeaker9902]

I've waited a long time to see this guy do this!!! Congratulations Conrad!!!!

[@JoelBergmark]

Lol what did Eagle do to SpinTV for earning all the OB graphics on Hole 17?

[@Cooliepops]

40:20 She's giving Conrad the visual reach around.

[@joevegas7443]

Avery is there to remind Eagle next time to punch the ground with his left hand.

[@jpjp2365]

Lol

[@ogs1mpson609]

Eagle can’t punch himself out of a wet paper bag.

[@TestTubeBuddies]

It's because Eagle is a Vegan lol, No one gets hurt punching something soft unless you are softer then soft. But for real I'm glad he manned up and played the last round, his body may be frail but is mind isn't ;)

[@jamesgraham8048]

This was soo intense I had to take extra medication just to watch. Amazing!

[@sfranklin9073]

I enjoyed being there for round 3. Next year would love to be there for round 4. I thought James would come in second but congrats to him to win. Awesome coverage.

[@audiethacker907]

By and large, I enjoyed the commentary. The clips with the course designers about the course itself could be good, but they also felt like interruptions to the play, and were repetitive. There may be better ways of handling those kinds of things. Maybe, for example, have another video for the build-up to the tourney, a bit of a walk-through of the course with the clips of the designer giving his thoughts and insights. I think something like that was done at a big tournament a few weeks ago. This may be directed more towards the people running the tourney than the commentators, but I hope a way of better marking the OBs can be found. Some kind of grass paint, maybe, or chalk? Even if they want to keep the strings and markers as the "official" OB lines, chalk would help the viewers and maybe even the players see the OBs better. Or maybe hay bales, hay bales everywhere. I'd also like to see a rundown of the scores, at least of the top 10, some time during the front 9, maybe at the end. Even it takes a bit longer to get the video posted, it would still be nice to have that. Overall, enjoyed the tournament and the videos. Even glad to see the tourney won, not in a birdie-palooza, but in a workman-like and solid way, and nice to see Conrad win.

[@mattsnyder4754]

Audie Thacker I don’t think there’s enough hay on the planet to mark all the artificial OB they force onto this course

[@diamondmodify]

The course designer clips made me want to rip my teeth out....

[@charlesjahnke8782]

Anyone else notice eagle missed the triple mando high on 15? Had to rewind it a few times.

[@thechesskid]

Was checking the comments for this. It looked high of the mando the first time so I had to re-watch several times and it still seemed to miss it

[@angrysumoxxx]

I watched and rewound it many times at x.25 speed and it looks like it goes right through the middle of the overhead mando. Would that count as making a mandatory? At the 25:48 mark at x.25 speed.

[@dolantremp]

I know this was over a year ago but it definitely made it. Go frame by frame and you can clearly see it's under the crossbar

[@GreatNewsVideo]

Cograts to James, you tried to choke one away again but they just wouldnt let you. Yayyyyyyy!!!!!

[@chillokapi5225]

What an amazing tournament all around and WOW.... SpinTV and the Champ on color commentary just became the platinum standard for major tournaments. Bravo

[@sadisticsinon]

Thanks guys. Great commentary.

[@Hazmatt36000]

Fantastic coverage as good as any in the business. Liked the more subdued and serious commentary. Gave it the sophistication and respect the sport needs to grow more respected by other sports and media.

[@prrz94]

Wow McMahon took a lot of OB strokes on hole 17 ;)

[@condorsalesman]

Yo he had a broken hand. Chill

[@PeteEH]

This must be the worst disc golf i've seen on a round this important. But gotta love JC winning, and the buttery, honey dripping, sweet soulful commentary of the Champ, please someone get him to do more next season...

[@shawnnguyen9538]

Soo happy for Conrad, he deserved evry bit of that win

[@jarrodjob]

I loved the coverage. Great commentary. Professional. Vanilla. I felt like I was watching CBS with Jim Nantz with KC. Calming. Again, I appreciate Jomez and BigSexy for the color, humor, crispy motion graphics. Empathy for the fellow player. Watching their coverage is like rainbow sherbet. So unexpected, story based, and fun.

[@jamalydude]

Jarrod Job I like Climos so much more. The big sexy guys can get old fast

[@jarrodjob]

@@jamalydude Respect. They both add value for sure. We are getting better and moving the game forward. Its awesome.

[@mattsnyder4754]

No one to blame but himself. But you gotta feel for Eagle a bit. Arguably the favorite to win the whole thing 16 holes through the third round. Lose your temper, break your throwing hand, and then just have to try and minimize the damage all through the final round.

[@carmike17]

If someone already made this comment I apologize, but big shout out to UltiWorld. We have our former Upshot host (Steve Hill) conducting the winners interview holding the mic for the PDGA and Spin TV, and we have our current host, Jamie, on the commentary. I know you have to be a major disc golf nerd to appreciate how much UltiWorld has given us as fans, and I am one very grateful nerd.

Where were some of the bigger names during this? Did none of them play well enough ? Ricky, paul, chris kevin?

[@jeffabercrombie167]

Nice James, tough playing everybody was suffering all rounds

[@henrihell]

Checked the uDisc live scorecards and found a fairly interesting fact on Conrad's performance. He wasn't #1 on anything they measure (other than having the least bogeys or worse). In fact, he was in the top 10 only on scramble (2nd) and C1X putting (4th). So what you needed to win this year was just to putt well and make par.

[@ipissed]

Well no, what you needed to win this year was -19. Par was well behind the leader board.

[@scotranney8456]

Congrats to Conrad! Was pulling for him from the first round, nice to see such a cat win it.

[@simmupilli5513]

"Tamm has no lay-up game in his put, goes after them.." Literally just layed up the previous hole.

[@freddiecrunk9499]

So exciting. This is such a good time as I get ready to watch this unfold knowing it will be great and fearful that the hay bale hole will "ruin" somebody.

[@ordinaryspecialist]

"The question is what is the chase card doing?" Why is that a question? Coverage would be way better if they could just tell us what scores the chase card has while covering the lead. Do they not have Udisc?

[@jarrodjob]

+1 // I was thinking the same thing. Especially with the spoiler on 18 tee.

[@mikehosier1239]

Great coverage and commentary. Love the production, the history and stories about the holes in between. Keep that up! So good. That said, not the most visually attractive course. Not my favorite to watch.

[@TristanandIsolt]

Not an appealing course at all. All kinds of man made structures and the holes are all gimmick holes.

[@OrganikSecrets]

When Ricky gets Lyme, Eagle breaks his hand, and Paul runs out of coke... someone else gets a chance to win.

Please put that leaderboard up often during final rounds instead of never

[@fourcubed47]

Love James Conrad, but I was rooting for Chris Clemmons to win it. Followed his card at the Green Mountain Championship and he made a heroic surge in the final round for second place behind McBeth. So disappointing to see him falter on hole 17. He's a class act and next year I'm sure he'll be winning some tour events.

[@PoorGamer13]

The OB decisions by the designers were horrendous in 2019. The course felt extremely tricked out and unfair. Conrad deserved to win, no doubt, but I really hope they dial back the OB for the next USDGC.

[@shawnnguyen9538]

Hole 17 is ridiculous! Holy crap, i think i would stil be there tryin to land it in bounds

[@kylehamilton1366]

[@wolfgangclassics]

Congratulations James!

[@hayesowens]

Congrats to my fellow Virginian, James! With the veterans creeping up the scoreboard at the end, I wonder if 8 years of McBeth/Wysocki domination has limited newcomer exposure to the highest pressure stretches of competition in the sport. Just a hypothesis.

[@susiepittman601]

Where is Tamm now?

[@BenRowland]

Any one know what disc Conrad is throwing at 26:16?

[@areguapiri]

I enjoy watching disc golf, but I had no idea where the out of bounds areas were throughout the entire event. They have to find a better way for the viewers to see the out of bounds areas.

[@carlosallison8955]

Good to see Conrad finish out even with that rough 250 footer.

[@elmerfudd-rs4ls]

hazards shouldnt cost a stroke, its suppose to be an area where its difficult to gain a stroke on the field, might as well call it out of bounds

[@JordanPike]

You may as well call a yield sign a stop sign
