Disc Golf in the News

[Tripper]

Hurricanes and tropical storms.

Sorry I forgot to use the sarcasm quote. Living in NC I am fairly familiar with hurricane and t storms.

The Deaf Disc golfers National Championships were held here this past Wed. through Saturday. I helped out Paul (asst.TD) for the 4 days and had a great time meeting and watching these players that came from all over the country. I would now like to learn sign language!

You know about the spectator/parking fees, right?

There is a $10 parking fee

I like how "Richard" (BTW, that's his PDGA name) is in front of racks of Paul's discs. We're all one big family, I guess.

Jomboy does great breakdown videos of MLB games in a fun way. It was nice to see a DG vid show up in his content.

Our national TV sports news just reported on Eveliina Salonen's second place finish at Worlds. Video footage by Smashboxx TV!

Oh On Weather Channel on 9/23/2019 I saw a thing about the Flood of 1997 in Fargo ND and how the city is doing the flood control and in the part the people were showing that Lincoln Park was demolished in the background was a modern Mach III in the park. Later on in the Video some Male is playing disc golf though just pulling a cart some kind with the seat on the back side, one of those generic carts that come with the bag and seat on them with seat folded up and a disc golf bag in place of the original bag.

I can't find the video but if I could I would.

Regional radio station USDGC podcast

A reporter with Charlotte's powerhouse AM station, WBT-1110, did a nice piece on "What's all this Frisbee golf we're seeing," focused on local Pro Master Brad Ramsey going up against the young bucks and best-in-the-world DGers at USDGC. Great exposure - it ran live at 6:05 pm last Thursday, right in the middle of drive time.

Was just watching the latest Major League Fishing episode I DVR'd this morning, when what do I see... Hole 9's basket, lol. A Discatcher just sitting right there on the bank. Took me a few minutes to figure out what course it is but it appears to be BuckHorn in Raleigh, NC.

This is one of those times I wish I had a smartphone...

There is really such a thing as major league fishing??????

I thought fishing was something one did so they didn't look like a vagrant when one decides to take a nap on the shore.....

Lol....sure is a thing. Much larger than disc golf, better sponsored, more well known and regularly on TV.
