00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,200
Hey everybody, welcome to this 
episode of the Disc Golf Fans 

2
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,600
Fan. 
I'm Bobby, Cool Daddy, Slick 

3
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:14,640
Breeze and I with me, Eric 
McCabe and Mr. Zach Melton. 

4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:19,640
We literally just this morning 
announced his resigning for Dina

5
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:24,280
with Dynamic Discs and 
celebrating his 10 year 

6
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,280
anniversary with Dynamic Discs. 
Yes. 

7
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:28,880
A decade. 
You're old. 

8
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:35,760
Trust me, I know, I know. 
I know how. 

9
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,680
Does it feel? 
How does it feel 10 years? 

10
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:44,560
Dude, it feels like it's flown 
by and also like like Eric said,

11
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,120
holy crap, I'm I'm getting up 
there, dude, I'm getting old. 

12
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,320
I know last year when I went to 
Europe and I had to have my 

13
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,320
passport, I got my passport in 
2016. 

14
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,400
My beard was red like Eric 
knows, like red Reds. 

15
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,560
And then like I'm like going 
through last year, you know? 

16
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:01,960
And I'm like, look. 
And I'm like, dude, they're not 

17
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,480
even going to think this is me. 
This is like 9 years apart. 

18
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:07,480
I got all this Gray and crap in 
there. 

19
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,040
I know they're going to, they're
going to be like, bro, who? 

20
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,040
Where is this guy? 
Well, I remember early on, I 

21
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,440
remember having conversations 
with Zach on the phone when he 

22
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,200
was with Prodigy trying to get 
him to come over. 

23
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:23,960
And I'll never forget we used to
go out and hike Camp Alexander 

24
00:01:23,960 --> 00:01:26,120
here in Emporia, just take the 
dogs out and hike them. 

25
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,880
And I remember like he called me
when I was out there one day and

26
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,440
I remember just sitting on this 
rock for like 45 minutes just 

27
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:37,440
talking about Zach coming over, 
what disks I think he would like

28
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,840
and, and, and all that. 
So it's, it's been awesome 

29
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,280
having you around for 10 years. 
Excited to have you 10 more. 

30
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,240
Yeah, man, that's us. 
I remember those conversations 

31
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,360
trying to decide if I wanted to 
make the jump or not, which it 

32
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,880
was scary for me because like 
all my friends were with 

33
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,320
Prodigy, right? 
close friends, people I've 

34
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,480
traveled with. 
So like it, it was kind of a 

35
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,960
scary decision. 
And I actually remember I rode 

36
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,440
with Paige after I think the 
Piney woods open up to Emporia. 

37
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:07,880
And that's the first time I met 
Bobby. 

38
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:12,600
Like officially remember us 
having a, a sit down in his 

39
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,560
office, right? 
We're having a chat and he's 

40
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,400
like, where do you see yourself 
in 10 years? 

41
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,640
And I'm pretty sure I said on a 
podcast talking to you, but 

42
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,800
nice. 
So I think I, we could go back. 

43
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,360
I don't know, I guess there's no
video footage, but I'm pretty 

44
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:30,600
sure I called it so. 
The question needs to be asked 

45
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,960
Zach, where do you see yourself 
in 10 years? 

46
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,840
Probably sitting here talking to
you guys again, hopefully and 

47
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:45,200
perfect maybe, you know, Yeah, I
think college disc golf has been

48
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,680
Eric, this is a cool thing I 
think we both have in common and

49
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,240
can talk about like I got into 
that last year. 

50
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,320
Never would have thought 1 
college disc golf would be like 

51
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:56,840
a thing, right? 
Like a real thing. 

52
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,120
But like your school 
scholarships, they back it. 

53
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,160
They look at it like a sport. 
The school I'm involved in, you 

54
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,320
know, ESU Milligan, like they do
as well. 

55
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:09,240
And so that's really cool to see
that happening and kind of I can

56
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:14,960
see myself transitioning from 
full time player to now like I'm

57
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:16,200
still always going to play disc 
golf. 

58
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,600
But I think the coaching and 
getting more and more involved 

59
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,280
in that and that becoming a 
bigger part of my life like that

60
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,440
for sure I think is where I'm 
headed over the next 10. 

61
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,080
So let's talk about that for a 
little bit. 

62
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,440
What it what is do you are the 
are the disc golfers, the 

63
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,520
players are there? 
Is their mindset a little bit 

64
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,160
different when they're playing 
college disc golf or is it just 

65
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:41,760
about like any pro? 
I think, I think, you know, for 

66
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,720
my team and his team, we both 
have kids on the team who are 

67
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,760
pro caliber players. 
You know, they have a pro mind. 

68
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,840
They they were they're serious 
about it, right. 

69
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,200
Couple of our guys are serious 
about it and I love that they 

70
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,040
want to get better. 
They wanted to be be the best 

71
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,960
they can be, But the majority of
them I think are are it's more 

72
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,800
of a fun type of atmosphere, you
know, and I think that's a nice 

73
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,520
change of pace compared to tour 
life and pro tour players, 

74
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,240
because on the tour it's your 
job. 

75
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,880
You know, like I, I still enjoy 
it because I like disc golf, but

76
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,400
I understand like the, the 
stress that comes with it, 

77
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:13,960
performance anxiety, all that 
stuff. 

78
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,640
So the college atmosphere is 
definitely a little bit more 

79
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,240
fun, which is a nice change of 
pace. 

80
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,920
Would you say that that their 
practice sessions are like more 

81
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,520
intense because it's a part of 
their college career? 

82
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:29,680
No, no, I don't think intense. 
It's more fun. 

83
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,640
Yeah, that's more fun. 
It's a lot more fun. 

84
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,640
Yeah, they want to be there, 
they want to practice, they want

85
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,440
to soak up everything we tell 
them. 

86
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,040
They want us to be mean to them,
Right, Eric, in that tough love,

87
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:46,720
at least our guys, they will. 
I mean, I'm yeah, yeah, he's got

88
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,240
him running around the lake 
sometimes. 

89
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,320
But yeah, they, I don't know, 
they, they really want to, like 

90
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,960
they show up, they want to play,
they want to, you know, we had 

91
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,000
him out practicing putting 
yesterday first, like practice 

92
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,680
of the season, you know, back in
school. 

93
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,520
And I mean, I think everybody 
showed up. 

94
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,880
But they want to be there and 
they, and it's like a social 

95
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:08,400
thing too. 
They all like you, they all get 

96
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:13,120
along for the most part. 
And, you know, I think they 

97
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,960
enjoy being around each other 
and have a good time with it. 

98
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,760
That's also very cool. 
We'll get into a little bit 

99
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,640
more. 
We have a bunch of questions 

100
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,400
that we posted on the Disc Golf 
Answer Man Facebook group and on

101
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,160
some of our social media. 
We'll get into some of those 

102
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,880
questions here a little bit. 
But first let's talk about a 

103
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:30,920
little bit of product that we 
got, Eric. 

104
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,480
Let's talk about a little bit 
about those polar stamps you 

105
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,680
got. 
Oh, Polar, Polar Party, I 

106
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:41,800
believe is what we've got. 
We have this guy right here on 

107
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,440
how well you guys going to be 
able to see that or not, But 

108
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:48,560
it's kind of cool little stamp 
we had created this year. 

109
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,640
We had an artist come out and do
this for us. 

110
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:58,240
We have Lucid Ice Orbit Escapes 
and Trespasses available with 

111
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,200
this stamp on it. 
I think it's pretty cool. 

112
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,360
I love the LE stuff. 
A lot of people just like some 

113
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,160
really cool stamps, I think. 
And and these are definitely 

114
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:07,720
hitting home with that right 
there. 

115
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,120
So and obviously we had to put 
it on a couple of our staple 

116
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,200
molds like the Escape and the 
Trespass are two of our four 

117
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,000
first molds that we released in 
November of 2012. 

118
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,320
So still going strong with these
two molds. 

119
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:25,520
If you haven't tried out, in my 
opinion the Trespass is one of 

120
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,840
the most underrated discs in 
disc golf period. 

121
00:06:28,840 --> 00:06:31,120
I will say that till the end of 
time. 

122
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,160
Such a good disc. 
Well, I'll go over one that I 

123
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,200
have here. 
I have, of course, I love the 

124
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,720
treason. 
The treason is my one of my 

125
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:45,600
distance drivers and we just got
them in the Lucid plastic. 

126
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,680
So we got some nice light blue, 
dark blue. 

127
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,840
It has a nice little turn for 
me, which I really love. 

128
00:06:51,840 --> 00:06:54,400
So for my arm speed. 
And in fact, I'm working on a 

129
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,200
video right now where I'm 
setting a baseline for my 

130
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,120
distance. 
And I'm going to think about 

131
00:06:59,120 --> 00:06:59,720
Zach. 
What? 

132
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:00,880
I know you haven't seen my 
throw. 

133
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,360
Erica's seen my throw and he's 
analyzing it. 

134
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,160
But I want you to think of some 
basic tips that you're going to 

135
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,240
give me to help me increase my 
distance. 

136
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,880
So, but what I'm doing is I'm 
using the treason as my disc to 

137
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,160
set my baseline for January. 
And then by the middle of the 

138
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:19,200
year, I want to see am I gaining
better distance by working on my

139
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,880
form? 
And so the treason is that disk 

140
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:23,520
I'm using. 
So I like that white. 

141
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,560
I don't know why that white 
looks so clean, but it is. 

142
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,680
And then we have the orange nice
bright colors was what I'm 

143
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,080
loving that we're coming out 
with these nice lucid. 

144
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:34,880
Bright colors Good. 
The white stamps. 

145
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,120
That did look good. 
White stamp on that. 

146
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,840
Yeah, that, yeah. 
Yes, that's nice. 

147
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,000
You know, somebody's going to be
wiping that and putting their 

148
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,320
own stuff on there. 
For sure. 

149
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,600
So tell me, Zach, what do I need
to do? 

150
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:48,960
What? 
What's some basics that you 

151
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,800
teach your college kids? 
I mean, I know I ain't no 

152
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,120
college kid, but what's a basic?
You tell people that like this 

153
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,040
is what you need to do to get 
better distance. 

154
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,640
If I remember correctly, 
watching you throw Bobby, I'm 

155
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,640
pretty sure you keep both hands 
on the desk. 

156
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,200
Does he does he still keep? 
Yeah, I think you got to take 

157
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,720
that left hand off first. 
But you you got to get the left 

158
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,920
hand off the desk. 
It's better. 

159
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,880
It's definitely better. 
It's not as defined as it once 

160
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,600
was. 
So when he's bringing the disc 

161
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,760
back, he's definitely bringing 
it back. 

162
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,320
Yeah, Yep, yeah. 
I think taking that hand off 

163
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,640
will help because like, 
honestly, when you throw 2, it's

164
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,200
nice to have that arm to kind of
help with like the falter and 

165
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,800
stuff and get that hand off of 
it, but also allow you to turn a

166
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:33,039
little bit more. 
But that was, I was a A2 hand. 

167
00:08:33,039 --> 00:08:34,520
I would have two hands on the 
disc. 

168
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,280
And that was one of the first 
tips I was like told was get 

169
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,679
that hand off. 
But I haven't seen you throw in 

170
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,400
a while, so I'd like to see some
video. 

171
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,360
We'll come to Kansas, and you 
will. 

172
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,080
OK, that's really nice right 
now. 

173
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,800
I'll have to send I'll have to 
send you the video so you can 

174
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,800
give me some some some pointers 
as well. 

175
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,280
I'd love to. 
I'll probably all right. 

176
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,560
Let's jump on over to the 
questions. 

177
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,440
Let's jump over to the 
questions. 

178
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:08,000
Let's see someone sent in. 
They want to know from Zach Zeb 

179
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,000
wants to know what is your 
favorite disc you've ever thrown

180
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,280
and where is it now? 
Man, what a loser. 

181
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,680
He knows the answer. 
This is set up actually. 

182
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,640
Actually Eric knows this disc. 
You remember that old my die 

183
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,520
Emac Truth? 
Like one of the first like 3 

184
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,920
discs. 
I got off off DD through it for 

185
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,720
like 8 years. 
It got really flippy. 

186
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,280
I actually gave it to Zeb, one 
of my buddies. 

187
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,200
He, he's from here in the 
Tri-cities here in East 

188
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,040
Tennessee and he just moved to 
Nashville and I'll let him take 

189
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,560
it with him. 
And, and he, he knows the rule 

190
00:09:41,560 --> 00:09:43,960
though. 
If he ever isn't going to throw 

191
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,120
it, it comes back to me and I 
get to keep it because it's 

192
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:50,520
like, you know, it's a special, 
special disc, but it is on loan 

193
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,320
now. 
He, he's got it in Nashville. 

194
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,000
But if he ever sells it, I'll, 
I'll literally murder him. 

195
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,440
I'm going to say here, I'll kill
him. 

196
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,480
Do not. 
Nice, nice. 

197
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,920
All right. 
Next question comes from Neil. 

198
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,840
Neil wants to know, as 10 years 
has passed and you have seen 

199
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,080
things come and go, what has 
been the most surprising change 

200
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:13,320
in professional disc golf in 
terms of improvements or 

201
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,040
downgrade? 
What do you think? 

202
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,840
What do you think needs to be 
added to improve it more? 

203
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,600
I think patience is needed, 
right? 

204
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:29,200
I think the disc golf pro tour 
is what, 11-12 years old, 

205
00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:32,480
something like that. 
Like it's, it's still an infant,

206
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,760
you know, it's still a baby and 
it's hopefully, you know, with 

207
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,560
the right people in place, it's 
going to continue to grow and 

208
00:10:38,560 --> 00:10:42,240
get better and improve. 
But in my mind, I still think 

209
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,440
they're doing good. 
I think people generally are 

210
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,560
too. 
We're in a, I don't know, the 

211
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,480
society today. 
It's like they want now, now, 

212
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,480
now he's like, why don't we have
this huge awesome sustained tour

213
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,720
that has outside sponsors? 
It's a joke. 

214
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,920
It's like, bro, this thing 
wasn't around 12 years ago, you 

215
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:03,600
know, like this brand, it's new.
I think they're doing OK, you 

216
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,880
know, and I, I cause I've seen 
it improve right from the 

217
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,280
beginning. 
I was there in the beginning 

218
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:13,880
when they were like 3 events and
you had pro players driving a 

219
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,560
trailer around setting up course
assets, right? 

220
00:11:16,560 --> 00:11:20,160
There was like 2 employees and 
like they were both volunteers, 

221
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:21,640
right? 
They, I mean there was no money 

222
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,800
originally. 
Like it's kind of awesome to see

223
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,240
where we've gone. 
And I mean what they're doing 

224
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,680
well or what I see. 
I mean there's a now a tour that

225
00:11:30,680 --> 00:11:32,800
sustains players. 
I think you know, like you're 

226
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,240
seeing guys like when Eric 
traveled, you had probably the 

227
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,200
same I don't know I'll probably 
get the numbers wrong, but 

228
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,760
probably like the same 30 ish 
people who traveled and then a 

229
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,280
lot of it was regional players 
who filled in your own field. 

230
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,080
Is that I don't know you tell me
the number, but there weren't a 

231
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,000
lot there weren't a lot of y'all
just doing that. 

232
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,760
Yeah, OK, that I felt like that 
was a little high. 

233
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:59,640
Now you've got 8070 to 80 people
are at every event, plus some 

234
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,280
regional feelings. 
So the growth is cool to see 

235
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,400
people, you know, taking the 
plunge and going for it, you 

236
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,240
know, trying to live out their 
dream. 

237
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,520
I mean that's that's awesome. 
Like, you know, we're doing what

238
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,960
Eric and those guys were doing 
back in the day, but we actually

239
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,200
have like a tour to follow, 
which is, you know, it's pretty 

240
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,480
cool. 
I had a thought, yeah, I like 

241
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,440
that you said patience. 
That's what I thought I had. 

242
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,920
I like that you had said 
patience because it does seem 

243
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,960
like people that are new to the 
sport, they don't understand 

244
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,200
that it hasn't been around a 
while. 

245
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,920
And I think that's always kind 
of been a topic that me and Eric

246
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,520
have talked about on the show. 
Is that even disc golf itself, 

247
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,960
when a lot of people compare it 
to say, golf or football or 

248
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,600
something like that, as far as 
what they have, it's like we're 

249
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,080
we're just little babies. 
Disc golf is just a little baby 

250
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,440
when you compare to a sport like
golf or football or something 

251
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,000
like that. 
So I know it's, yeah, I agree. 

252
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,440
I know it's hard to be patient 
because you you're excited about

253
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,640
the sport, you love the sport 
and you want to see it do better

254
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:56,760
and grow. 
But I think sometimes a little 

255
00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,080
patience be a little helpful. 
And Bobby, you know, what really

256
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:05,720
put that in into perspective to 
me is the PDGA is celebrating 

257
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:09,720
its 50th year this year. 
Think about that. 

258
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:13,360
Like most of our most of our 
founding fathers, with the 

259
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,640
exception of Ed, you know, and a
couple others, but a lot of 

260
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,080
those guys are still alive. 
Guys and gals are still alive. 

261
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,960
So like, you think about any 
other sport that's been going on

262
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,040
for decades and decades, 
decades. 

263
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,080
So, yeah, it's, it's a, it's a 
little different. 

264
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:31,320
So we are definitely still in 
our infancy for sure. 

265
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:33,840
And I think they're doing OK. 
I really do. 

266
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,240
I mean, nothing's perfect. 
I mean, everybody, you can't 

267
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,560
make everybody happy. 
I don't care who you are right, 

268
00:13:40,560 --> 00:13:42,960
like, or what you're doing. 
There's always going to be 

269
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,400
people who are upset. 
But, you know, I think for the 

270
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,800
most part, they're doing all 
right and they're trying to do 

271
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,640
good. 
I mean, not everybody always 

272
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:53,440
makes the best decisions, but 
the I think the the once is 

273
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,040
there to try to make good 
choices and and keep growing the

274
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,720
tour. 
Yeah, absolutely. 

275
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:00,400
All right. 
Next will come from Joshua and 

276
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,120
this is kind of a, he wants you 
to go back to when you first got

277
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,520
signed at DD and he says, what 
was it like when you first got 

278
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,240
the acceptance e-mail letter 
that you got on Team Dynamic 

279
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,240
Discs? 
And how much pride is there to 

280
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,640
be able to still put that logo 
now that you've been part of the

281
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:20,680
team for so long? 
I remember being nervous till I 

282
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,680
meet all you guys to talk to you
guys, like trying to decide if I

283
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,120
was going to make that jump. 
And honestly, after I had my 

284
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,360
visit with you guys and I was 
like, fine, I knew for I knew 

285
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:35,160
100% I was like, I'm, I'm, I'm 
going to DD like without a 

286
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,400
doubt. 
And it's because of the people 

287
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,560
and I, they and, and a lot of 
you guys are still there. 

288
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,800
And that's why I love coming to 
town. 

289
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,880
I love hanging out. 
I love getting to see you guys. 

290
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,160
And that's, that's what sold me.
And so I immediately knew I was 

291
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:52,800
going and then I was sweating 
bullets on having to inform 

292
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,280
Prodigy that I was leaving. 
That was an awful phone call. 

293
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,240
I was, I was treading it. 
But but I did it. 

294
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,440
And I, you know, no regrets. 
I've been very happy. 

295
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,040
And like, I don't know, I think 
we've had a good successful run.

296
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,760
I think we can keep going. 
And yeah, I'm very proud to wear

297
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:10,800
the DS on the back, man, Very, 
very proud. 

298
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,880
You know, we've had ups and 
downs last handful of years. 

299
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:17,640
We've had some, I guess some 
public else, some people would 

300
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:18,800
say. 
But at the end of the day, we're

301
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,280
still here. 
We're still making good content,

302
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,520
we still have good people 
working there and we're, we're 

303
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,440
doing our best and I think we're
building it back and I don't 

304
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,320
know, I'm excited for the future
for sure. 

305
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,400
Yeah, yeah, it's been a 
challenging couple years. 

306
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,920
I've I watched that obviously 
from the sidelines for a little 

307
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:40,720
while, but it's the the the 
thing that drove us before is is

308
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,080
still there to grow the sport of
disc golf and to work for a 

309
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,360
company that we we, we love so 
well. 

310
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,160
You nailed. 
It before you go on, you nailed 

311
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,360
it with we have people here 
because we do. 

312
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,560
We have people here. 
We have a lot of people here 

313
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,040
that are kind of making 
decisions these days, have been 

314
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,680
in the sport for many, many 
years and been a part of DD for 

315
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,760
many, many years. 
So I think that's what's being 

316
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,000
lost. 
Right now, yeah. 

317
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:10,960
I'm curious, Zach, when you 
think back to when you made this

318
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,840
decision to come to Dynamic 
Discs and I know you still, 

319
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,800
you're out there, you're the, 
you're a man of the people, you 

320
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:19,200
talk to players that are out 
there. 

321
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,080
Do you feel like the 
environment, how different is 

322
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,240
the environment now? 
Thank you. 

323
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,200
Back to when you made the choice
to change manufacturers. 

324
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,720
Now I think it, it kind of feels
like the wild, Wild West every 

325
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,880
all season. 
You know, it's like everybody's 

326
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,440
probably trying to talk to 
everybody and looking for, you 

327
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,400
know, that better payday, that 
better deal. 

328
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:44,280
And I, I don't blame anybody for
trying to find, you know, make a

329
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,720
decision that's good for them. 
But it, it is, it seems like a 

330
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,520
lot more turnover and willing to
turn over back then, you know, 

331
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:55,200
like 5 pros would switch and 
everybody be like, Oh my God, 

332
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,320
someone move. 
You know, it, it just wasn't 

333
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,680
really happening, you know, or 
it was just quite like, you just

334
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:02,920
didn't hear about as much, 
right? 

335
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,319
Like I'll be scrolling nowadays.
And there's, there's a million, 

336
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,800
you know, not a million, but 
there's a lot of different 

337
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:10,720
podcasts. 
There's a lot of people who are 

338
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,040
just your average Joes, but 
they're covering the sport. 

339
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:15,800
Everybody can cover it and keep 
up with it. 

340
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,920
And kind of with the the way 
social media is and everybody 

341
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,520
you know, posting so publicly, 
like you kind of know everything

342
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,599
that's going on. 
So it it, there's a lot more 

343
00:17:24,599 --> 00:17:28,680
access to, you know, and that 
seems like there's more going on

344
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,360
with that, I think. 
You know, it's it there is 

345
00:17:32,360 --> 00:17:35,560
definitely more access, but even
silk and and this is something 

346
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:40,160
that kind of kind of makes me 
frustrated sometimes and I'm I'm

347
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,240
going to keep it real like I 
like to do here on the disc golf

348
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:50,600
answer man is that I see all the
things that people talk about on

349
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:54,080
different podcasts and it's like
especially when I see certain 

350
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,240
people like certain players, and
I'm not I hope I don't get in 

351
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:58,560
trouble. 
I'm not going to say any names, 

352
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:03,760
but I'll see people post about 
certain players and that they're

353
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,000
leaving or doing this or 
whatever. 

354
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:11,000
And they and they're and they 
stay with their company that 

355
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,080
they're with or whatever move 
they make. 

356
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,120
And they're like, see, they went
with the best ones. 

357
00:18:16,120 --> 00:18:17,360
They went with their, their, 
their, whatever. 

358
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,560
And I'm like, yeah, you don't 
understand. 

359
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,520
I got a text from that that 
player or I got a phone call 

360
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,120
from that player. 
You know, they're, they're just,

361
00:18:25,120 --> 00:18:27,120
they're humans too. 
And they're trying to figure 

362
00:18:27,120 --> 00:18:28,880
out, you know, the best moods 
for them. 

363
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,240
And so some, you know, obviously
I'm not going to say anything 

364
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,240
because I'm not going to, you 
know, talk about stuff like 

365
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:34,680
that. 
But it's just, it's interesting 

366
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,080
to see people's reactions to it.
And it's like, man, if you only 

367
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,040
knew the back story. 
What's what's going on? 

368
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:43,800
So yeah, maybe we can start to 
see, maybe we can start that 

369
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,680
underground podcast we've been 
talking about forever, Eric. 

370
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:51,240
Yeah, let's do it. 
So anyway, it's it's definitely 

371
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:56,040
interesting. 
All right, so I I told we have 

372
00:18:56,040 --> 00:19:01,080
one of our team players, Anthony
and Selma yesterday when ratings

373
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:01,920
came out. 
Was it yesterday? 

374
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,480
I think yeah, yesterday ratings 
came out, found out he was the 

375
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:13,120
highest rated lefty at 10:39. 
I believe before that was Austin

376
00:19:13,120 --> 00:19:16,680
at 10:38. 
So I'm going to give him the OK,

377
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,800
we're going to have him on the 
show so you guys can talk to him

378
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,360
and ask him some questions. 
So let me give him the go ahead.

379
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,040
I don't know. 
I said we are ready. 

380
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:24,280
We are. 
He is here. 

381
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:25,600
Oh, there. 
We go. 

382
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,480
Take your time. 
What up Anthony Tom bro? 

383
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:33,440
First time. 
Logging into this thing. 

384
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,680
Yeah. 
So first of all, Congrats on the

385
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,080
achievement. 
Fantastic job, dude. 

386
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,920
That's so, so awesome. 
So good. 

387
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:42,920
Thank. 
You, I appreciate it. 

388
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,200
I appreciate it a lot. 
So, so tell us a little bit 

389
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,680
like, did you know this was a 
possibility that this was 

390
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:53,680
coming? 
Yeah, so and like the the long 

391
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,480
run of things I hadn't really 
thought about like overall being

392
00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:00,120
like the highest rate of FT in 
the world or all time until like

393
00:20:00,120 --> 00:20:03,080
a few months ago. 
There was a ratings update where

394
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:07,400
I jumped up to 1038 and I was 
like, well, holy crap, that's 

395
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:12,000
like tied for all time highest. 
So I think it was then where I 

396
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,800
kind of was like, oh man, if I 
and then at that point I had 

397
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,680
like one round from a college 
event that I was going to play 

398
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:19,880
that was going to go on and I 
was like, wow, if I just played 

399
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:23,200
well there, it could do it. 
And of course played bad. 

400
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:31,240
So, so drop back down to drop 
back down to rating points. 

401
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:36,040
So I was at 10:36 kind of kind 
of let it leave the conscience 

402
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,320
and had a 8th tier at the 
beginning of this year in 

403
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,960
Charlotte. 
And I played pretty well 

404
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:48,160
throughout the tournament. 
And I, I knew there was a chance

405
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,760
on on Tuesday that it could have
happened, but honestly, anything

406
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,880
was going to. 
So it was super cool. 

407
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:57,760
Good, good surprise I guess to 
see it have jumped up to a 1039.

408
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,280
Yeah. 
So tell us, tell us how you felt

409
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,840
when you look went to the the 
page and you saw that number. 

410
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,960
I mean, obviously like super 
cool. 

411
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,680
I mean honestly, like I'm pretty
proud of myself for it. 

412
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:18,960
I've worked hard to become as 
like competitive as I am, but at

413
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,720
the same time, like it's 1 
rating point that's so minuscule

414
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,200
and like the grand scheme of 
things. 

415
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:29,520
So like, I know I have to keep 
working at it, keep continuing 

416
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,960
to try and get better, but I 
mean, it's, it's a really cool 

417
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,200
accomplishment that I'm super 
happy to to have for now at 

418
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,240
least. 
Nice, good job. 

419
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:41,360
I'm looking at the someone 
posted on Reddit and so I don't.

420
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:46,000
They posted a screenshot of some
rankings and look like we had 

421
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,320
before. 
This was, like you said, Austin 

422
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,600
Turner at 10:38. 
And then before that was Devin 

423
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,960
Owens in 2020. 
He was rated at 10:36. 

424
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,480
And then we got Chris Clemens, 
former dynamic disc player, at 

425
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,720
10:34 in 2022. 
Then we go down a couple more. 

426
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,360
We got Zach Melton at 10:25 in 
2018. 

427
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,880
So, Zach, what questions do you 
have for a fellow lefty? 

428
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:12,160
All right, all right. 
So we do say fellow lefty, but 

429
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,760
is it, you know, is it confirmed
that you do putt right-handed? 

430
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:19,760
It. 
It may be confirmed. 

431
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,160
OK. 
There the bit of controversy in 

432
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:23,840
the air. 
Yeah, that. 

433
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,240
You know what though? 
You you throw all lefty 4IN, 

434
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,920
which is like really hard. 
You just make the game harder on

435
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,000
yourself. 
So I'm going to give you a pass.

436
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,360
I think you're still, I think 
you're good. 

437
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:35,880
I appreciate it, yeah. 
Definitely. 

438
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,480
Definitely a weird thing, Yeah. 
What's you got? 

439
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:44,040
OK, would you rather stay the 
highest rated lefty in the world

440
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:48,080
you know, for the rest of your 
career or never lose another 

441
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:53,200
pickleball match to your dad? 
That's good question. 

442
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,360
That's honestly very tough. 
That's yeah, because you could 

443
00:22:56,360 --> 00:22:57,720
give your dad. 
That's a great question. 

444
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,240
Yeah, because, you know, he 
loves football. 

445
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:07,480
He does I don't know I mean, why
not do both, you know, keep I've

446
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,560
been getting better you know 
like I've beat him. 

447
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:11,640
I've beat him a few times 
recently. 

448
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,200
No, but honestly if I had to 
choose one I might just take 

449
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:15,120
beating him every time. 
I. 

450
00:23:18,120 --> 00:23:18,920
Love that. 
That's awesome. 

451
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,600
That's awesome. 
So what are your plans for 2026 

452
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:24,640
Anthony, as far as touring and 
playing? 

453
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:31,320
So big like plans that I have 
right now is I'm in college at 

454
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,480
UNC Chapel Hill. 
I'm going to keep grinding out 

455
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,280
the studies here and with that 
play some college disc golf 

456
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,000
events. 
Got a few regionals coming up in

457
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,560
the spring and then eventually 
college disc golf nationals. 

458
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,080
I'm super excited for that. 
College disc golf is an absolute

459
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,760
fantastic time. 
It's such a such a good 

460
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,120
community. 
There's a lot of good 

461
00:23:52,120 --> 00:23:54,120
camaraderie with with your 
fellow teammates. 

462
00:23:54,120 --> 00:23:55,840
So looking forward to that. 
That's awesome. 

463
00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:01,600
And then in this, in March, I'm 
going to, there's a pro tour 

464
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,720
event that's in Charlotte that I
am, I'm most likely going to be 

465
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,920
playing in. 
And then I'm going to try and 

466
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,800
hit a few pro tours in the 
summer. 

467
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,480
I'm hoping to get the light 
stone. 

468
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:17,840
We'll see how that all goes. 
And then beyond that, similar to

469
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,440
last year playing as many of 
the, the local A tiers in like 

470
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,760
the North Carolina, Tennessee, 
South Carolina, that that 

471
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,920
region, as many of those as I 
can keep it pushing. 

472
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:33,200
Hey, you know registration just 
opened for GBO which is an A 

473
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:34,720
tier. 
I'd love to see you come out to 

474
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,280
Emporia, KS this year. 
Love to have you. 

475
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,400
I haven't. 
Been to Emporia in so long I 

476
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:40,360
would love to get back out 
there. 

477
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,120
We'd love to have you. 
Absolutely cool. 

478
00:24:43,360 --> 00:24:46,600
What advice do you have for 
somebody who's aspiring to 

479
00:24:47,360 --> 00:24:50,640
become top rated in the in lefty
or righty? 

480
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:53,120
What, what, what? 
What advice do you have for him?

481
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,800
Practice pudding. 
I think that's big. 

482
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,520
But beyond that, I think it's, I
think it's about like finding 

483
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,000
when you're, when you're playing
on the course, finding your, the

484
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:11,240
correct level of like focus and 
figuring out where your balance 

485
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:15,880
is of, of caring enough, but not
caring too much so that you push

486
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,560
yourself too hard. 
I think it's really important to

487
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:24,360
focus on every shot and really 
dial it in and make sure you 

488
00:25:24,360 --> 00:25:28,160
know exactly what you're doing. 
A lot of times you see people 

489
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:32,920
kind of a little Willy nilly and
not super, super honed in on 

490
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,240
each and every shot. 
And that's just the kind of the 

491
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,880
nature of disc golf is you just 
have to be, you have to be 

492
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:39,800
mentally present for the whole 
round. 

493
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,920
You know, the the more you can 
do that, the better you become, 

494
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,160
I mean, in the long run. 
And real quick, tell us what 

495
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,800
what, what disc are you for 
handing the most with your left?

496
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:54,760
All of them. 
No. 

497
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,160
What discs? 
So I mean like my I? 

498
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,120
What are the goats in the bag? 
Yeah. 

499
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,800
Yeah, what are the go TOS? 
Harps. 

500
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:05,440
Harps are huge. 
I have four of them. 

501
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,800
They're they're great. 
And then for for like the flippy

502
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,280
stuff, since I am pretty much 
forehand only when I need 

503
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,840
something to go to the right for
putter, I'm throwing keystones 

504
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:16,640
or deputies. 
Those are both great. 

505
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:22,080
And then midrange, the funky, I 
throw the tersus, love the 

506
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,280
tersus, great disc, really 
glidey. 

507
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:29,560
And then love, a felon, love 
arrive, have to have those. 

508
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,840
Nice, nice, very cool. 
All right. 

509
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:34,840
You guys got any more questions 
for Anthony? 

510
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:42,720
I don't think so excited to see 
you out in Charlotte in or Rock 

511
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,000
Hill technically in April. 
Looking forward to having, yeah,

512
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,960
seeing you guys, both of you 
guys out there actually, so. 

513
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,320
Yeah, how's that UNC team 
looking boss? 

514
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:54,320
How y'all looking? 
We're looking pretty good. 

515
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,360
We're looking pretty good. 
We're, we're, I mean, Milligan 

516
00:26:57,360 --> 00:27:01,440
doesn't stand a chance. 
Emporia State though, however 

517
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,080
they might. 
Yeah. 

518
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:07,440
OK, OK, let's go. 
That's all jokes all. 

519
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:08,920
Jokes. 
Get them out. 

520
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,960
Get them out of here. 
All right. 

521
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:14,880
Well, Anthony, thank you so much
for joining us. 

522
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:16,720
And again, congratulations on 
the achievement. 

523
00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:19,600
And it only goes up from here, 
dude. 

524
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,560
I know you're going to do a lot 
more while you're out there, so 

525
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:24,720
appreciate you. 
Thanks, Bobby. 

526
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:25,920
Thanks, Eric. 
Thanks, Zach. 

527
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,120
Thanks for having me. 
Yep. 

528
00:27:27,120 --> 00:27:27,960
See. 
Anthony, take it easy. 

529
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:32,240
Take it easy. 
That's awesome. 

530
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:34,280
I love that kid. 
Yeah. 

531
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:36,840
He played OK. 
So let's get back to well. 

532
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:39,640
Huh. 
He, he was playing it cool in 

533
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,840
the interview, Man, He, he was, 
he was kind of professional. 

534
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,200
I liked it. 
Yeah, we might have to have it 

535
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:47,400
more often. 
Yeah. 

536
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,440
OK, so let's talk about a couple
more discs we have. 

537
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:51,720
We're kind of bouncing around, 
but that's OK. 

538
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,000
That's how we do it here on disc
golf. 

539
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,720
Fancy man. 
So I'm going to talk about the 

540
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,400
other. 
We got the stock stamp fusion 

541
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,480
motive now we had already the 
fusion motive kind of out in the

542
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:06,680
wild because we gave away the 
fusion motive to our competitors

543
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,520
at junior worlds. 
So a lot of people got their 

544
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,440
hands on it already, and I know 
a lot of people are already 

545
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,120
loving it. 
And then when we released it, it

546
00:28:15,120 --> 00:28:19,640
was very popular, very, very 
popular disc, super popular. 

547
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,800
So we're excited about the 
Fusion Motive that comes out in 

548
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,600
the stock stamp now. 
So if you'd like that more, that

549
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,320
clean look of the stock stamp, 
we got the Fusion Motive. 

550
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:32,800
Of course, we got purple. 
We got the blue, the orange, the

551
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:36,480
pink and the course that clean 
white that everybody likes and 

552
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:43,280
then the yellow eye again yeah 
the which color Lakers colors 

553
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:47,040
there Lakers yes I I have two 
motives in my bag. 

554
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,600
I have a competitor Fusion 
motive. 

555
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,160
They let me play in the junior 
world's last time. 

556
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,480
No, I'll. 
Play nice nice those those that 

557
00:28:55,480 --> 00:29:01,160
don't know the motive is it is 
like a beginner friendly disk it

558
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,120
they're all lightweight. 
I think the hot the the most. 

559
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,200
What 159 I think is the 
heaviest. 

560
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:11,040
These are men 47. 
Yeah, yeah, really good disk. 

561
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,400
It's very very user friendly. 
I love it. 

562
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,320
I love it for a nice turnover 
shop for me. 

563
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:17,400
I love it. 
Yeah. 

564
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,560
So those are out. 
And then, Eric, you have some 

565
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,960
fluid. 
I do have fluid fluid. 

566
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:26,720
Some fluid disks. 
Fluid Heist coming out here 

567
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,000
relatively soon. 
Those of you that aren't 

568
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:34,280
familiar with what fluid is, it 
is our gummy plastic and it is 

569
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,320
very gummy. 
Have not had the opportunity to 

570
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,000
throw these yet, but I do plan 
to get out tomorrow. 

571
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,280
It looks like it's going to be 
sunny and fiddy so I do plan to 

572
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,960
get out and throw some of these 
fluid heists. 

573
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:50,040
We got the fluid justice as 
well, which is very exciting. 

574
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:54,000
Nice over stable approach. 
This can never go wrong with an 

575
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,080
over stable approach. 
This and then in my opinion, a 

576
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:02,520
disc that I think everybody 
should bag fluid or lava or 

577
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,600
Lucid X or whatever is the 
vandal. 

578
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:11,320
Vandal is so underrated. 
I absolutely love the Vandal I I

579
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:15,480
like the the X versions for kind
of straight flights and then the

580
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,040
just regular old lucid ones for 
nice long rollers. 

581
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,800
But all of these bad boys will 
be available here soon. 

582
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,320
I can actually look that up for 
you if you want, unless you have

583
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,560
that information in front of 
you, Bobby. 

584
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,080
I actually did have it up the 
spreadsheet. 

585
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,560
Let's see Fluid Vandals and all 
the others. 

586
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:35,200
Looks like ready in the store on
February 5th. 

587
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:40,640
February. 5th February 5th, so a
couple weeks before that in the 

588
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:44,760
stores and then online at dd.com
or dynamicsjust.com. 

589
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,520
I like the fluid vandal. 
Never. 

590
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:52,040
It's never been in fluid, right?
No, the the vandal, no, none of 

591
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,920
these except the justice is the 
only one that it it's been out 

592
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,840
in fluid plastic, but the heist.
I'm excited, I'm excited. 

593
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,840
Brand new disc this. 
This last year, it's a it's a 

594
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,120
good 112 speed, nice Palmer 
disc. 

595
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,640
It's a good disc. 
Are you bagging it, Zach? 

596
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:11,520
Yeah, it's probably my favorite 
driver I've put in the bag in 

597
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:16,520
years for like releasing on 
either and then having it stand 

598
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:18,080
up and then bomb, you know what 
I'm saying? 

599
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,200
Yeah, yeah, I do. 
Kaboom. 

600
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,040
Let's jump back to the 
questions. 

601
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:30,000
Let's see for I posted on our 
Facebook story on Dynamic Discs 

602
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:31,880
and asked people to give us 
questions. 

603
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:35,560
So, oh, Speaking of GBO, just 
like Eric said, the GBO 

604
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,400
registration is now open. 
We already have people signing 

605
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,680
up. 
And I will give you a bit of a 

606
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:45,080
inside secret, maybe not a 
secret, but there are other 

607
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,240
events happening in the Emporia 
area. 

608
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,920
So if you're kind of thinking on
the fence on the line, you know,

609
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:51,880
trying to figure out am I going 
to stay in Emporia or not? 

610
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:55,720
Book your rooms now because 
these other events are going to 

611
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,480
cause the hotels to fill up and 
the Airbnb's to fill up. 

612
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:00,400
So make sure you get those 
planned out. 

613
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:04,600
But you can go to 
glassboneopen.com to get more 

614
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:08,840
information about that. 
So to that our own Jackie Moe 

615
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:13,040
asks you, what is your most 
memorable GBO moment? 

616
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:19,480
#Gbo moment. 
Wow, what a that is a tough 

617
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,640
question. 
It is. 

618
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,960
You can't. 
You can't say that one on our 

619
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,760
channel. 
Wait, what? 

620
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:29,280
Yeah, can I go? 
He knows. 

621
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,160
What I'm talking about? 
Yeah, I'll go with. 

622
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,760
Numbers please go here a second.
Yes, thank you. 

623
00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:39,720
But for the the other, you know,
the expirated pod for later, we 

624
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,080
can, we can bust that stuff, 
Yeah. 

625
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,160
No. 
Right, right underground. 

626
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,720
Our underground pod. 
Yeah, Underground, Underground. 

627
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:56,040
I think it was Worlds in 2016. 
I'm almost paused because we're 

628
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,840
there for GBO and for Worlds, 
but I'm pretty sure this was for

629
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,280
Worlds. 
For whatever reason. 

630
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:05,080
We started like a water fight at
the beginning of the week and it

631
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:09,720
was like Big Germ and Wiggins 
and like Kobe. 

632
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:13,560
And then it's like me, Paige, 
Calvin Madison and it by the end

633
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,640
of the week, it ended up 
everyone just trying to throw 

634
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,440
water on Germ like the whole 
time. 

635
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,760
And like, he would end up being 
by himself and watching him like

636
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,920
lose his mind at 1.0. 
Yeah. 

637
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:26,960
He had Calvin cornered and 
Calvin panicked and like, opened

638
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,160
up his Gatorade bottle and just 
flung it on his face and like 

639
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,280
seeing it hit Germ in the face 
and like rundown and he's like 

640
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,200
Gatorade, you know, and like 
lose his mind. 

641
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,840
And then we get to the block 
party, which is always like 

642
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,200
should be everyone's GBO moment 
every year, right? 

643
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:45,560
The block party is always 
awesome. 

644
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:49,640
But this, this is the this is 
what led to my moment. 

645
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,040
This is number 2 Germ who's mad 
at everyone, right? 

646
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:55,640
Eric knows he he holds a grudge 
with the best of them. 

647
00:33:57,080 --> 00:34:00,960
He's walking around with a big 
popcorn bucket, but it's full of

648
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:02,760
water. 
There's no popcorn in it. 

649
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,840
And we can tell he's acting like
he's putting his hand in there 

650
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:07,480
to eat popcorn, but he's eating 
nothing. 

651
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,880
So he's got like, you know, I'm 
talking about the big yellow 

652
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:13,719
buckets with like, you know, the
So he's walking around with that

653
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,120
and he's trying, he's going to 
try to throw it on one of us for

654
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:18,560
sure. 
Everybody knows that he's an 

655
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:19,960
idiot. 
It's not slick. 

656
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:24,280
And Kobe, Kobe, guys, shout out 
Kobe. 

657
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:28,320
Actually, he's coaching. 
He's coaching Anthony at UNC 

658
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,639
Chapel Hill. 
He's helping their disc golf 

659
00:34:30,639 --> 00:34:34,239
team now. 
But Kobe goes up to him and and 

660
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,600
germs like 6-6. 
Kobe's like 5-8 with like 

661
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,199
platform she's on probably. 
Sorry Kobe, you're short, bud. 

662
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:45,360
And somehow he kicks. 
He gets his foot up high enough 

663
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,159
to kick the bucket. 
What you like is that germs 

664
00:34:47,159 --> 00:34:51,320
chest and it just explodes water
all over. 

665
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:55,600
Germ is at the block party 
everywhere and he like his eyes 

666
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:59,400
get so big and he starts 
freaking out and we all laugh 

667
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,840
and then he just starts 
screaming and chasing us through

668
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:05,200
the block parties. 
We're like weaving and and I 

669
00:35:05,240 --> 00:35:07,920
thought he was going to kill me.
Like I, I've, I've never ran so 

670
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,240
hard in my life, but I mean, 
that moment was pretty awesome 

671
00:35:10,240 --> 00:35:15,360
because you know, he's just 
dripping with water all the way 

672
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:16,920
down to like his face. 
It was awesome. 

673
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,240
But that was a fun week. 
That was a very fun week. 

674
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,440
Yeah, I love it. 
I love that his he. 

675
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:26,120
We can't talk about Zach's 
favorite GBO moment, but his 

676
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:30,360
second favorite GBO moment 
didn't even happen in GBO, so. 

677
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:32,640
That's. 
How much fun we have here in 

678
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,480
Emporia. 
So yeah, I'm just saying put it 

679
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:36,560
on. 
Emporia Moment. 

680
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,880
Dude what happens in what 
happens in Emporia bud? 

681
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:44,320
That's right, stays in Emporia. 
Yep, that's awesome. 

682
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,520
Cool. 
Yeah. 

683
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:50,440
So get registered Glassman open 
dot com get registered sooner 

684
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,600
rather than later so that the 
the accommodations don't fill 

685
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,280
up. 
All right next question comes 

686
00:35:55,280 --> 00:36:02,680
from Zach play the Rogersville 
Ice Bowl. 

687
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:05,440
Sounds like Board of Demands and
that question. 

688
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:07,520
Yeah, that wasn't really a 
question. 

689
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:12,680
I know, how about this one? 
This is a good 10. 

690
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:14,960
Who said that? 
Gerald Max. 

691
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:18,160
Gerald Charles. 
Gerald. 

692
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:23,840
Something like that Gerald. 
I'm trying to figure out if it's

693
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,040
a name or a username or what. 
We'll call him Gerald. 

694
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:36,280
That poor guy just got a new 
nickname for life, just like. 

695
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:45,400
Malachi Geraldo. 
That's awesome. 

696
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:47,160
I got to go. 
Now. 

697
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:48,720
I got to go. 
Now I'm going. 

698
00:36:48,720 --> 00:36:58,000
I got to sell them. 
OK, sorry, sorry Geraldo, 

699
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:02,920
whatever this person wants to 
know. 

700
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:07,120
How many discs does an MA 4 
player really need? 

701
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:14,000
Like 8 really. 
What do you think, Eric? 

702
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,800
But over under, what do you? 
Think just just just an E Mac 

703
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:19,240
truth. 
That's all they need. 

704
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:26,040
That would be. 
I think honestly, MA four, I 

705
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,520
think 3 discs and you're going 
to have a great time. 

706
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:30,720
That's all that. 
That's what MA 4 should be 

707
00:37:30,720 --> 00:37:32,240
about. 
It's just going out and having a

708
00:37:32,240 --> 00:37:34,560
good time. 
So you just really need a driver

709
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:39,280
like a fairway driver, a mid and
a putter and you're golden. 

710
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:40,400
That's it. 
Three. 

711
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:43,320
That's my answer. 
You said 8, Zach. 

712
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:45,240
Tell us what? 
Which eight would you say? 

713
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:49,040
So I think most people will, you
know, rock with a couple 

714
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,200
putters, hopefully the same 
putter you got it, you know, 

715
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:55,120
case you lose 1 whatever. 
I would say what Eric said you 

716
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:59,840
need and then in a perfect 
world, a super beat up, flippy 

717
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:03,280
version of that or a less stable
and that way you you, you know, 

718
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:06,000
because, but yeah, you don't 
need anything more than that. 

719
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,760
It's single digits really. 
Because like at that level you 

720
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,200
are still like needing to get 
better. 

721
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:14,840
Like, you know, you're still 
working on your game. 

722
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,440
You're not, you know, you're not
like, well, this is where I want

723
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,120
to be like everybody wants to be
better than that. 

724
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:21,640
So you're working. 
But like you also most of the 

725
00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:25,440
time probably don't know all the
frisbees in your bag and like 

726
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,560
really know how to throw them 
and throw them a different way. 

727
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:31,800
So like most people are rocking 
20 or more, but how many of 

728
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:34,320
those do you really know, right?
So it's like it's got to be 

729
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:35,840
single digit. 
Like Eric said, you're, you're 

730
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:38,560
going out to have fun. 
We want to get better, but it 

731
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,280
should be enjoyable. 
You don't need 12 different 

732
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,840
options on a shot to like be 
overwhelmed and not know what to

733
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,680
throw. 
The best thing you do is throw 

734
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,680
very few discs and master those,
and then you kind of expand from

735
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,480
there. 
Yeah, which three of those, 

736
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:53,840
Eric? 
What's 3 molds? 

737
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,120
A Mac to. 
MA 4. 

738
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,560
So yes, yeah. 
And a EMAC judge. 

739
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:01,000
I. 
Mean you forgot the. 

740
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:03,240
Yeah, right. 
Well, it makes 4. 

741
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,480
Yeah, I mean. 
There you go. 

742
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:08,600
Winner, Winner. 
What do we got? 

743
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,280
No. 
I think the well. 

744
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,600
The the emac trespass is going 
to be a little bit more stable 

745
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:17,480
probably for an MA4 player. 
And it's it's more of a distance

746
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:18,800
driver. 
I would say fairway driver. 

747
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,120
I would almost go either 
Maverick. 

748
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:25,240
Get a Melton Maverick in your 
hand, an Emac Truth in your 

749
00:39:25,240 --> 00:39:28,520
hand. 
And then the putter is all about

750
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:31,640
do you want to bead or do you 
not want to bead or do you kind 

751
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:33,400
of want to bead? 
And if you do want to bead, you 

752
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,200
go Judge. 
If you don't want to bead, you 

753
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,240
go Warden. 
And if you kind of maybe want 

754
00:39:37,240 --> 00:39:39,320
one, you go Emac Judge. 
There you go. 

755
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,240
Yeah, there you go. 
Perfect. 

756
00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:45,160
That works. 
All right, let's jump. 

757
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:47,880
This is an old question from 
back before the holidays when we

758
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,000
were regularly doing disc golf 
pants, man. 

759
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:51,320
But we're back. 
We are back. 

760
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,240
We're back. 
This one's from Timothy. 

761
00:39:53,240 --> 00:39:55,960
And this kind of applies right 
now actually with this being 

762
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,920
like kind of the season where we
hear about players move and 

763
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,520
things like that. 
But Timothy wants to know he has

764
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:06,680
he has a daughter that has 23 
career wins with A&B tiers. 

765
00:40:07,240 --> 00:40:09,880
She is currently number one in 
the world in her division. 

766
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,520
This was back in October last 
year. 

767
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,680
She's always asking about 
sponsorship, but it seems like 

768
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,480
disc manufacturers are mostly 
interested in Instagram 

769
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:23,240
following. 
Because of her age as well as 

770
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:26,440
personal more convictions, my 
wife and I will not be creating 

771
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:31,480
an Instagram account for her. 
Smart. 

772
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,000
Wait, he sent it in twice, but 
then he added more. 

773
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:38,480
Is there anything else we can 
focus on to make her career more

774
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:41,080
appealing to manufacturers? 
Or is social media following the

775
00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:46,120
be all end all of sponsorships? 
I. 

776
00:40:46,240 --> 00:40:48,320
Don't know if it's the be all 
end all. 

777
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:51,280
But for kids? 
At that age. 

778
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,800
It. 
It, it could be right at that 

779
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:59,040
age, right. 
I would say just keep doing what

780
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:00,920
you're doing out there. 
I mean, it, it is all about 

781
00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:05,200
promoting the brands that you 
want to follow that you want to 

782
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:09,840
be represented by. 
Obviously social media is the 

783
00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:15,560
easiest guide, I think for a lot
of manufacturers to to see your,

784
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:19,680
we'll save value, right, and see
if it's worth how many discs are

785
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,000
you going to sell at the end of 
the day? 

786
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,520
Now I know I'm not, it's not 
always about that because we 

787
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:27,240
have plenty of juniors on our 
team as well, you know, across 

788
00:41:27,240 --> 00:41:30,840
all of the brands. 
So yeah, I think it's just more 

789
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:34,360
about keep doing what you're 
doing, keep playing these events

790
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,800
and keep winning these events, 
it sounds like, and just 

791
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:42,240
represent the brands you want to
represent and just keep running 

792
00:41:42,240 --> 00:41:44,440
events, clinics, all those type 
things. 

793
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:48,560
Is is 100% what at least we look
look at as far as a player would

794
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,200
go. 
Yeah, how old is she? 

795
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,960
Did he say? 
No, it didn't say he. 

796
00:41:54,720 --> 00:41:57,160
Didn't, but it sounds like young
right if. 

797
00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,360
If the. 
Parents are saying no Instagram 

798
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:00,680
for you so. 
Right. 

799
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:05,400
I think one possibility they 
could think about right is like,

800
00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:07,800
and and they wouldn't be the 
first person. 

801
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,880
There are several juniors who 
their parents run their social 

802
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:13,600
media account for them. 
That way they get to post them 

803
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:18,080
throwing and putting and having 
fun, but the kids aren't dealing

804
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,400
with the negative sides of 
social media. 

805
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:24,840
And so that you know, if if that
is something you want to get her

806
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,000
sponsor, I mean, that definitely
would help. 

807
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,080
But like Eric said, keep 
playing. 

808
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,160
She has fun and likes it and is 
playing well. 

809
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,320
Get her out there. 
Let her play, promote who you 

810
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:37,040
want to promote, reach out to 
those people. 

811
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:40,400
You know, I mean, I think most 
companies aren't just going to 

812
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,160
say like, oh, get out of here. 
You don't have social media like

813
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:44,400
this is we're talking about kids
here. 

814
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,000
Like this is they're going to 
encourage them to keep doing 

815
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,840
what they're doing. 
Promote the company you like or 

816
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:53,960
companies reach out to all of 
them, you know, but at the end 

817
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,840
of the day, I mean, they could 
start a little account and run 

818
00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,560
it for her, you know, and post a
little fun videos of her playing

819
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:01,840
disc call and saying this is my 
favorite disc. 

820
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:06,400
I love, you know, Westside this 
I this is Swan is my favorite 

821
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,440
putter of all time, you know, 
and that's cool, you know, 

822
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,600
without having to like, which we
don't know the age. 

823
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:15,800
So I mean, she could be 6, you 
know, I don't know, but I do 

824
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,280
understand why, you know, 
because I've taught I go to 

825
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:20,400
junior worlds every year. 
I know you're there too. 

826
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,360
Like, I mean, I like going and 
watching the juniors and and 

827
00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:25,920
supporting and you know, a lot 
of the parents tell me like, 

828
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:29,760
dude, there's no way I'd let my 
daughter run run the the account

829
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:33,040
because got creepy guys message 
in these 14 year old stuff like 

830
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:36,320
that, which is just awful. 
But you know, parents run them 

831
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:39,480
and post the clips for him and 
you know, goes well. 

832
00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:44,000
Yeah, Yeah. 
I would say that like this is 

833
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,960
the first year that I've ever 
been involved with like figuring

834
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:52,520
things out as far as the team. 
Me and Eric worked on, you know,

835
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:54,760
figuring out who we wanted on 
the team and stuff like that. 

836
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,640
And I don't think there was a 
time where when it was a junior 

837
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,880
level that I looked to see if 
that had Instagram. 

838
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,160
That wasn't the criteria when it
at a certain age because I 

839
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,360
didn't expect a younger person. 
Now someone that's older and 

840
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:10,160
stuff like that. 
Yes, that was part of like 

841
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:11,920
looking at it to see what they 
got going on. 

842
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:13,920
And then of course, I would go 
to their PDJ page. 

843
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:16,840
How many events did they play? 
How well did they place? 

844
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:21,160
What did they got going on? 
And yeah, so it's kind of a 

845
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:24,240
tricky 1 though, because it does
seem like social media is an 

846
00:44:24,240 --> 00:44:26,360
important part. 
But like Eric said, it's not the

847
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:28,920
be all end all. 
It's just part of the equation. 

848
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:32,720
It's part of it's part of what 
we have something to offer you 

849
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,120
to help you with your disc golf 
goals. 

850
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:38,440
What do you have to offer us to 
help us with our goals? 

851
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,400
And how do we mutually help each
other out? 

852
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:42,800
How do we have a partnership to 
help each other out? 

853
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,200
And social media is part of that
equation. 

854
00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:49,440
All right, let's go back to 
Instagram. 

855
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:55,320
And we had one of our players 
that sent in quite a bit of 

856
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:57,880
questions. 
She wants to know a lot about 

857
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:02,760
You are Autumn Wong. 
Uh oh, yeah. 

858
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:06,840
She said it will be fun. 
Best roller disc? 

859
00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:14,240
Vandal. 
Vandal Nice, Best lefty disc. 

860
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:19,200
Best lefty disc Maverick? 
Come on. 

861
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:25,000
How's life? 
Life's life's turning turning up

862
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:28,240
right now. 
I had the flu for like 9 days, 

863
00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:30,560
probably the sickest I've ever 
been in my life. 

864
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,280
Usually I'm never sick for 
longer than a couple days, so I 

865
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:36,960
don't know, it's pretty crazy. 
Day 6 I finally went to the 

866
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,240
doctor because like I just had 
gotten worse. 

867
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:42,680
So the fact that I'm able to get
on here and talk with you guys 

868
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,920
without like coughing my head 
off or like having to like throw

869
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:47,560
up into the trash can, it's 
pretty awesome. 

870
00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:49,320
So life is good. 
Thank you. 

871
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,040
Appreciate that. 
Same. 

872
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:54,360
OK, she got we got she got a 
couple more. 

873
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:56,520
So let's let's go through this 
lightning round. 

874
00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:00,840
How many JJ Baskets baskets we 
hitting in 2026? 

875
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:08,440
As many as we can. 
OK, OK, fair answer. 

876
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,080
Or here, what are the biggest 
changes you've seen in the last 

877
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:22,480
five years? 
More younger players getting out

878
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:25,680
and playing more like, like at a
higher level, right? 

879
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:29,680
Yeah. 
Like guys that Eric and I saw 

880
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:32,720
play junior worlds like 10 years
ago, eight years ago, nine years

881
00:46:32,720 --> 00:46:34,960
ago. 
They're playing MPO or teenagers

882
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:36,680
and they're like really good, 
you know? 

883
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,280
So that's that's the biggest 
change. 

884
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:42,960
You're seeing a lot younger 
crowd competing at a higher 

885
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:47,160
level. 
Nice. 

886
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:51,920
And then last one, if you had to
convert a player to Dynamic 

887
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:55,360
Discs, what 3 discs are you 
giving them? 

888
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:58,080
Any love going to get to pick a 
player? 

889
00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:00,680
Can I pick the player I'm going 
to go? 

890
00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:05,000
Kevin Durant, KD. 
Yeah, Texas. 

891
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,520
How far could he throw a hyzer, 
Baby Boom. 

892
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:10,080
Yep. 
Former Texas Longhorn, 6 foot 

893
00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:12,560
11. 
Yeah, with those arms. 

894
00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:15,920
I watched him like 700 foot 
hyzers, yeah. 

895
00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:19,720
Yeah, I watched him lose to my 
Jayhawks. 

896
00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:23,480
So anyway, so you were. 
What discs did you say? 

897
00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:29,000
OK, but if it's not Kevin and 
it's just a player, let's see. 

898
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:33,400
I'd love to see him throw an 
escape. 

899
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:36,560
I don't know what level this 
player is, but 9 speed is under 

900
00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:39,200
stable, but it has glide for 
days. 

901
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:44,440
Very slept on mold. 
I like, I'm loving like I agree 

902
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:46,400
with Eric, Trespass is very 
underrated. 

903
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:49,360
I love the heist as a new disc 
because it's kind of like a 

904
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:51,120
little bit less stable. 
Trespass. 

905
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,920
So one of those two for a driver
because again, tons of glide. 

906
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:57,480
You don't have to like muscle it
to make it go far. 

907
00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:00,760
This isn't like some beefy disc.
You got to be able to bomb and 

908
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:05,920
throw. 
And then I might give him a 

909
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:08,280
Judge OG. 
We're going to go with the 

910
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:10,440
Judge. 
Great thrower, great putter. 

911
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:11,760
It combos. 
It does both. 

912
00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:14,520
Yeah, yeah. 
Good group. 

913
00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:16,840
Very nice. 
Good stuff, good stuff. 

914
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:19,320
All right, well, that's all the 
time we have guys for the 

915
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:21,040
questions. 
I appreciate that. 

916
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:24,840
Did we miss a a disc that we had
coming up that I missed one, 

917
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:27,000
Eric? 
The only one that we didn't talk

918
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:31,680
about were these guys. 
Yes, we have some lucid orbit 

919
00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:35,680
color moonshine Emac truths 
coming out with the walleye. 

920
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,800
Pretty sick. 
Stamp on that. 

921
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:42,040
Less white. 
Yeah, pretty sick. 

922
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:45,880
He there was. 
What is that? 

923
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:48,360
What is that event Mattie O's 
dad invented? 

924
00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:50,360
What? 
What's that tour called, Zach? 

925
00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:53,720
Southern Southern Nationals. 
Is that right? 

926
00:48:53,720 --> 00:48:54,800
Southern. 
Yeah. 

927
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:56,960
Southern Nationals. 
Something like that. 

928
00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:59,040
Yeah. 
This stamp was definitely 

929
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,440
inspired by that because there 
was a bass jumping out of the 

930
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:02,280
water. 
I had to tweet. 

931
00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:04,680
We tweaked it a little bit and 
made it a walleye, which is my 

932
00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:08,880
favorite fish to fish for. 
But these are the new retooled 

933
00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:11,520
emac truths as well. 
They feel great. 

934
00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:14,880
They're nice and flat, nice 
stability to them. 

935
00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:19,920
And we have blue, pink and 
orange, and they're triple 

936
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:21,280
stamps. 
They look good. 

937
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:23,320
They fly good. 
They glow pretty good, too. 

938
00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:26,960
So there you go. 
Those would be later on coming 

939
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,080
out later on so, but we'll talk 
about them again. 

940
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:31,800
OK And then another thing I want
to touch base on is Veterans for

941
00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:33,360
Vets. 
I just signed up for one that's 

942
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:36,480
happening in Tulsa. 
Of course, Veterans for vet is a

943
00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:41,560
our event that we help assist 
people to tournament directors 

944
00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:44,120
can't even talk. 
We assist them, we're giving 

945
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:46,520
them some. 
Do what? 

946
00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:50,440
Oh yeah, no, no, no, I'm sorry. 
It's a program to where you 

947
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:54,280
could run an event in your an 
event in your area and use to 

948
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:57,560
raise money for your local 
veterans organization. 

949
00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:00,920
And so Amy out of basket case 
disc golf is doing 1. 

950
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:02,520
And so I thought I want to play 
that one. 

951
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:05,280
I want to do some video and talk
more about veterans for vet. 

952
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:07,440
So, but you can find out more 
information if you go to 

953
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:09,600
dynamicdisc.com. 
Go all the way to the bottom, 

954
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:11,960
look for veterans for vet and 
see if there's one or no. 

955
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:15,000
You can sign up to run one. 
If you're looking for one, go to

956
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:17,080
disc golf scene and search 
Veterans for vet. 

957
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:20,960
I saw about 15 of them that are 
for the next couple months. 

958
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:23,040
So they're getting out there, 
which is amazing. 

959
00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:27,080
Real quick before we let you go,
Zach, let's talk about a topic 

960
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:30,040
that's a big topic. 
See if you got a hot take. 

961
00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:36,120
What are your thoughts? 
So here's the way I take it, or 

962
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,400
I think about it is we we 
constantly talk about needing 

963
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,760
money outside of disc golf, 
right? 

964
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:47,160
We had Barbasaw on board. 
There's rumors of, I don't think

965
00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:49,920
Columbia has officially 
sponsored anything, but there's 

966
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:53,280
like different rumors and 
different talks of Columbia. 

967
00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:59,040
We had I think LL Bean, LL Bean,
Adidas was connected to Macbeth 

968
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:00,720
for a little bit. 
Was it officially? 

969
00:51:00,720 --> 00:51:03,360
It was Adidas outdoor. 
Adidas outdoor. 

970
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:06,240
It's the same or not but it's it
was Adidas outdoor. 

971
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:09,680
So we always say, man, we just 
need some outside money to kind 

972
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:11,240
of help. 
And here comes along the disc 

973
00:51:11,240 --> 00:51:15,680
golf Port Tour and they make a 
partnership with Powerball. 

974
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:20,400
A like a gambling or not, it's a
very, in my eyes, very powerful 

975
00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:23,040
organization. 
In other words, they've been 

976
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:25,040
around for what, 30 some odd 
years? 

977
00:51:25,240 --> 00:51:27,560
They're an established 
organization. 

978
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:31,880
So I think it's great. 
I think it's great that we have 

979
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:37,000
somebody that's going to help 
put some money into the disc 

980
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,560
golf pro tour so they can 
continue to improve. 

981
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:41,680
But what do you guys think? 
Do you think this is a good move

982
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:46,200
or a bad move? 
I'll let Zach go 'cause he's 

983
00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:48,760
he's more in tune on the pro 
tour. 

984
00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:53,000
So what do you guys, Zach? 
Yeah, I don't, I don't see, I 

985
00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:55,120
mean, I don't, I don't see how 
there there could be a negative 

986
00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:57,680
side to it really. 
I mean, everyone's all, like you

987
00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:01,320
said, we need outside sponsors. 
So the fact that they got one in

988
00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:04,800
it and to, you know, compared to
all the other ones we've had, I 

989
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:08,520
think this is pretty huge, tons 
of money there. 

990
00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:11,000
You know, I don't know, like the
level of sponsorship and all 

991
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:13,240
that stuff. 
I don't know the details, but I 

992
00:52:13,240 --> 00:52:14,720
mean, I think it's it's big 
time. 

993
00:52:14,720 --> 00:52:16,280
I don't see how it could be 
negative. 

994
00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:20,000
I mean, I guess I could see the 
side to like people who don't 

995
00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:24,520
agree with like gambling or you 
know, like, I guess that's you 

996
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:26,880
could classify the Powerball 
under something like that. 

997
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:29,080
But I I don't know, I think it's
awesome. 

998
00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:31,680
I think it's good for us. 
Can't be bad. 

999
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:37,240
Yeah, feels like we could almost
anything that gets connected to 

1000
00:52:37,240 --> 00:52:39,200
it, you could have some sort of 
negatives. 

1001
00:52:39,240 --> 00:52:41,800
Now, I know it's easier because 
like you said with the gambling 

1002
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:45,120
and and I know that there's some
sort of, you know, there's a 

1003
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:48,000
level of maybe people might be 
addicted to, to, you know, the 

1004
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:51,880
lottery and stuff like that. 
But you know, overall it's a 

1005
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:55,920
it's an organization that puts 
money back into the community. 

1006
00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:58,560
I know that they give to a lot 
of veterans organizations. 

1007
00:52:58,560 --> 00:52:59,880
They give a lot to school 
funding. 

1008
00:52:59,880 --> 00:53:02,560
Now I I know that someone, I'm 
sure that's listening, will 

1009
00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:05,520
debate the amount that's put in 
there, you know, how much really

1010
00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:07,800
goes to it. 
But the fact is that they do 

1011
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:10,560
that and they're willing to put 
money back into the sport. 

1012
00:53:11,240 --> 00:53:13,760
Do you have any other difference
of opinion or thoughts on it, 

1013
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:15,960
Eric? 
I think it's great. 

1014
00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:20,240
I think it's, I don't see a 
downside to it at all. 

1015
00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:24,200
It's not like the Pro Tour is 
forcing you to go out and buy a 

1016
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:27,920
Powerball ticket or to gamble on
anything, right? 

1017
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:31,080
It's just if you want to to show
support, do it. 

1018
00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:35,240
But I mean, let's be honest, the
chances of you winning the 

1019
00:53:35,240 --> 00:53:40,560
Powerball are slim to none. 
So no, I think it's I think it's

1020
00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:44,440
nothing but positive. 
You know, with the what did they

1021
00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:46,800
had the Powerball Cup is the 
event that they're going to 

1022
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:47,760
have. 
I think is that what they're 

1023
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:49,920
calling the the finale this 
year? 

1024
00:53:50,720 --> 00:53:54,840
Something like that, yeah. 
Yeah, Yeah, No, I, I, I only see

1025
00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:58,280
positives for it with the 
additional money coming into the

1026
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:02,480
pros and and events. 
It'll be interesting to see if 

1027
00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:06,680
it's going to be spread out 
across the tour and majors or if

1028
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:12,440
it's just going to be for that 
finale slash any event that that

1029
00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:14,600
is just tied to the disc golf 
pro tour. 

1030
00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:17,280
Like for instance, we sponsor 
Idlewild every year. 

1031
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:21,720
Will there be some additional 
funding for that or is that 

1032
00:54:21,720 --> 00:54:26,520
still coming out of the the, the
host, the tournament, whatever 

1033
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:29,960
the title sponsor, is it still 
their responsibility to raise 

1034
00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:32,800
the additional funds or the 
club, whatever the case may be, 

1035
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:35,800
but or is some of that money 
going to get sprinkled along the

1036
00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:37,720
entire tour? 
Or is it just going to be one 

1037
00:54:37,720 --> 00:54:40,040
event, 2 events? 
Those are the things I'm more 

1038
00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,360
interested in. 
That's interesting. 

1039
00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:45,720
Yeah, they I see the on here on 
there, the Disco pro Tour 

1040
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:49,200
website, the Powerball world 
standings, the Powerball 

1041
00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:51,280
playoffs and then of course the 
Powerball Cup. 

1042
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:54,480
So a little bit of Co branding 
there for the titles, but that 

1043
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:56,400
that's a great. 
That's a great question, Eric. 

1044
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:59,800
And maybe we can maybe as more 
information gets put out, we'll 

1045
00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:01,960
find out more about it and kind 
of can talk talk on it. 

1046
00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:04,960
So good stuff. 
All right, Zach, I know you got 

1047
00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:07,160
things to do, probably going to 
go play some pickleball or 

1048
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:10,400
something, but we appreciate you
being on the show and hopefully 

1049
00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:12,560
I know we have the talks, but 
hopefully we can make this a 

1050
00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:16,360
regular a regular gig, get you 
on the show, talk and answering 

1051
00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:20,120
questions and of course giving 
us your your perspective of 

1052
00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:23,240
being out there playing on tour.
So. 

1053
00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:25,080
Yeah, enjoy it boys. 
I. 

1054
00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:27,800
Appreciate that you're on the 
team. 10 years, baby. 10 more 

1055
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:28,600
years. 
Here we go. 

1056
00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:29,840
I appreciate you. 
We ain't. 

1057
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,800
We ain't done yet. 
We ain't done yet. 

1058
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:38,160
We ain't done yet, So all right.
Anything else? 

1059
00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:40,040
Any parting words, Eric? 
Nope. 

1060
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:43,480
That is it for me.
