Why This One Decision Nearly Ruined The European Open

[@chriskindlesparger1163]

THIS is the kind of stuff I have been searching for. I'm a new dad and can't watch all of the pro tour rounds. So helpful to have someone walk me through the events and give context to the highlights and storylines. Thank you for what you do! You earned a new sub today

[@kevinrounds5764]

mamud is the man.....the pdga members have no idea how lucky we are to have this guys' experience and genius ability to bring us the product we want

[@fredi9204]

Was correct decision to give the time warning. And Gannon accepted the decision like a true champion. I agree the event was amazing.

[@hannuvallin6155]

Yup, you give the warning when you need to give a warning, doesn't matter what point of the tournament it happens to be.

[@Crowmoor78]

Right call by the judge. Gannons putt were starting to take forever. Who cares what the situation is. You can't start to bend the rules because tight game.

[@MrJaakkoLe]

Also tee shots. I took a video of him and from stepping to the turf it took him 40 seconds until release.

[@Vovk101]

Refreshing overview. Head and shoulders above than just higlights

Paying extra for the majors is BS ... If you want me to pay a monthly rate that's more than disney, apple or netflix then you need more value than is currently provided. Not watching the major just makes me realize I shouldn't pay to watch any of the tournaments.

[@Eipakh]

Dumb

[@routhy46]

3-4 rounds of live Disc Golf every weekend is not Netflix, Disney or Apple. You are a brilliant mind

[@Peg_Leg9n]

Watch the first day and highlights for free on KZbin it literally shows you everything that you need to see I mean think about it they show bad shots and shots from certain players that mean absolutely nothing to the tournament top plays just because a certain player has a big name and makes a good put for par when they aren’t even below par for the tournament doesn’t deserve to be a highlight but they give them to us because it was a shot that got video coverage but all that said just to make my point of trust me if you need to see a shot it will be a part of the highlights and it’s pretty much just a condensed version of the live coverage not actually highlights but it’s free on KZbin 🤷‍♂️💯

Modern Interneter kucks, who strive a career in disc golf rumors and emotional bias tournament coverage are never gonna admit when greed/big business practices are compromising the growth and integrity of the game! This might ruin their chances as the dream job of kuck’n the pro tour. The fact that some of us don’t play tournaments or subscribe to the network, says something about inner issues in the game! We’ve played for over 20yrs, so what?! Right! I’ll end with slow play and pay walls are not the recipe for growth and possibly! It’s how you get more interneters who’ve played for a couple years, justifying “big business” predatory behavior on its tiny community to justify a salary and pros who make the cut, not being compensated for their play! Don’t forget their travel expenses, nightly accommodations, food etc. but again wtf do I know?! Having lived through an exact replica of this “system” and watching a huge industry fall face flat and collapse, I’d like to think, I know more than most! Disc golf will continue to do circles until the DGPT, PDGA, DG NETWORK understands that without the players their big business plan will fail! I’d start to pay attention to the payout breakdown, at local level to tour…heres an example of the reality of fuckery going on in professional sports circles www.espn.com/espn/otl/story/_/id/10089803/pga-tour-tax-breaks-help-fuel-giving-which-falls-industry-standards#

Anyone from America suprised to see Ford as a sponser?!?! Shows how much more of a sport disc golf is in Europe vs here.

[@RoopeKaarela]

we have a cource called Ford and Ford Amateur😂

[@chucksherron]

Also, Ford's business model in Europe is very different from their market here in the US. They have little hatchbacks and other compact economical vehicles that just aren't available to us here. Unless you're buying a $70,000 pickup truck or a $50,000 mustang you're not buying a Ford in the US.

[@jeffring8954]

​@chucksherron isn't the Focus and Taurus two of the most popular cars in the US? If not, must just be where I live

[@chucksherron]

@@jeffring8954 those were discontinued in the US a few years ago.

[@tomfenter2566]

Love your videos

[@phazeshifta]

The course will definitely be different on at least a couple holes next year. They were talking about how they are putting a big swimming complex somewhere between hole 2 and 3, so that alone should change at least some of the layout.

[@juhakettinen4502]

That change will happen 2026

[@GRIND3RSC0]

Evelinas putting genuinely drives me up a wall. So much skill off the tee, you gotta figure out how to stop missing from 10ft like ffs man

[@byuidan]

The time warning/time rules are hot garbage. I am glad it didn't take Gannon off track. He handled it better than others have in the past. With that said a game should be about the game and not about the officials. 30 seconds or 90 seconds to line up an important shot isn't really a separator of the essence of disc golf in my opinion. In chess they have blitz, rapid, and classic formats that use the clock to affect play, but I believe that the consensus is that the best chess happens in the classic time format. It angers me a little to see the sport cheapened by people feeling like they need to interject themselves. There is literally no one behind the lead card. There are those goofly little videos where people start a timer, run as fast as they can, throw as fast as they can to hole out as soon as possible and that is fine for goofy little videos, but not something that I want to watch at a major. I check myself whenever I find myself agreeing with Broodie, but after checking myself, I find myself wondering why not just do what golf does in this case? Disc golf is screwing up a solved problem. Switching topics... I am not as put off by the rule change on 16 as a lot of people seem to be in as much as it brings consistency to the current tour landscape of disc golf. With that said, it makes me think that the current general drop zone/island rules of disc golf aren't necessarily what people want. I don't think there should be more than one hole like that per tournament, but why not bring it in general in as much as it seems to be something that even people that have suffered from it like.

[@goldenruletv7301]

Saarinen is a super star but Tattar is just the Queen.

[@romius9391]

30 secs is ridiculous..... make it 1 min

[@thomasniemann]

I believe the commentary is stating this is the last time they’re going to use the beast, some thing about the park being used for something else

[@djhollowman9567]

Too Easy?!?!?! For 7 feet tall, zero body fat hot head MPO players? No way. It definitely isn't because the course is so open, and favors throws that only reward those throwing steady 5-6 hundred per shot. Definitely couldn't be that. Yeah if we could just get some more ball golf courses to play on. That'd be greeeeaaaate. Disc golf should definitely only reward those who can throw for distance. Who needs midrange discs anyway. Just get the hot heads out there and let them take their frustration out by making ace runs out of par 5's. That's what we want people to pay to see. Seems like the best way to grow the sport. And if you took anything I've said as anything other than severe sarcasm, maybe the internet isn't for you.

[@ClarkPotter]

13:22 "So much weird things."

[@travisnealy8164]

Salonen choked on a epic scale that's what everyone should be talking about kristin is the queen but it wasn't a epic round comeback

[@MrAggezzz]

When I saw Silva with Detour on tee of 18 I knew she would throw right ob. This was more of a fail from Silva and Eveliina than a win for Kristin.

[@Tsukmu]

She threw the detour on round 3 perfectly in the middle, she just overturned it this time. Not the disc, just a player mistake.

[@yallahyallah4220]

don't care what anybody says but the FPO was really disappointing to me and Tattar had no real competition and walked the Open although playing a terrible 3rd round to her standards. Especially when you compare the MPO and FPO on a technical basis there's a huge gap. A lot of FPO's competitors putting seems really uncontrolled with suboptimal posture. On the MPO side of things i was hoping for a tighter competition but alot of my favourite players disappointed and some players never were competative across the whole four days. Gotta give lots of props to Gannon Buhr though, for standing up to the pressure that Wysocki and McBeth were loading onto him, especially being that young still he really stood his man the last cple baskets. Lots of respect for him.

[@TheAeroRising]

+9 Final Round by the leader of the tournament at a Major has to be the worst ever Final Round. I’d like to see that “stat”. Could have shot a +1 and Won a Major 🤦🏻‍♂️. Meanwhile, Gannon shoots -11 to hold off Ricky and Paul.

[@DP-yu4rr]

poor ricky!!!!

[@frisbeephil]

You make it sound like the officials shouldn't have given the warning at such a crucial time, well Gannon shouldn't be breaking the time rules at such a crucial moment.

[@FrankBroughtonNY]

37 mph in a 35 mph zone call IMO at that point in the tournament.

[@tonilazuto3228]

[@tattooedjohnson]

Being ahead of your blue isn't a throw. It's a shit shot. Gimmicky...and if it were so legit it would be legal inside 30 ft. As a 35 year player...nah I will call out dumb every time.

[@ChrizzyBaby]

Commentator: “after hole 7 of ROUND 1, only one bogey, so playing with the most consistently you could EVER IMAGINE…” Viewer: loll…already hyping just after 7 holes on a 3 day tournament? A bit premature I say

[@bikerbrandon1]

Jomez should just cover this event instead. I don't understand why jomez has taken a backseat to every other shitty coverage channel they are so much better and should cover all of the tour and both of them

[@chucksherron]

Obviously if it was up to them they would

[@routhy46]

Jomez vids are up on DGN right now. They release them for free later, like every year. Nothing has changed.

Correction 14 is the course record shot by Paul Macbeth just days before. Not Ricky with 13

[@michaelmaniloff9297]

You are misinformed. He shot -14 after the first 2 rounds at the other course.

[@tinfoilvegan]

i was closer to canceling my normal dgn, than to upgrading

[@benwigginsbikes]

If you could play disc golf as well as you criticize those that do you would maybe have a chance at being relevant.

[@objectivetruth2286]

Sponsorship signs should not be at an angle or near landing areas near the basket like the one on 18. I wonder how many other disc golfers hit that sign as their discs were hyzer-skipping toward the basket. Ricky was unfairly punished by that sign. Tournament organizers have to he more aware of those types of errors. Quite shocking really.

I disagree with your statement on 16. Bunker rules are terrible. Most boring and frustrating type of golf to watch. Don't bring it back on 16.

It was the best hole in disc golf and the completely ruined it.

[@humanbeingsix]

Whoever warned Buhr about time should never be in a position to make that call again.

[@flatnicable]

Curious as to why you come to that conclusion? He obviously took his time, and that grants a warning. He took the warning and played on. His fk up at 17 had nothing to do with the warning, so get over it. Gannon did...

[@chucksherron]

You still won the tournament so it obviously didn't hurt him that much

[@humanbeingsix]

@@flatnicable I simply believe that if you are on the final card and are in contention, and this is the final round, and the tournament is still not decided, and the player in question is not egregiously violating the time rule, which I don't believe Buhr was, they should be given a little platitude to take their shots even if they are technically violating a timing rule...I know that rules are rules, but I think they can be slightly bent in certain situations, and I think this is the epitome of an appropriate situation to allow a slight bending of this particular rule.

[@AnttiJM123]

@@humanbeingsix Do the official rules allow bending the official rules? i think not.

[@humanbeingsix]

@@AnttiJM123 No, of course not, but be realistic. Do you think the PGA doesn't bend this very rule? They do, all the time. The reality is, there are exceptions to rules being made all the time. Sometimes it's not wise, sometimes it is. I think it's clearly wise in this situation.

[@joshua8314]

No one expected this? More like no one cares. European open is a waste of time as long as DGPT is involved. Honestly I didn't even watch this video to the end, it's mostly irrelevant and pointless.

You clicked on a video about European open then claim its irrelevant and pointless and the event is a waste of time. What was the point by clicking on this video?
