The Official 'Ask Paul McBeth' Thread

Impressive win, congrats on the 2-peat.

I'm a guy whose focus starts to drift during a one-round club singles. One bogey over 7.5 rounds is absurd, borderline superhuman territory, liquid nitrogen for blood, given lead card all week, several great players making crazy charge after crazy charge.

You're like Hannibal Lecter, seem polite, heart rate in the 40's, but rip faces off, eat people for breakfast.

Thanks Mushin for the video. I was looking more for an answer from Paul saying "I could have won Worlds with (these 6-7 discs...or whatever), and nothing else. It's really just confirmation from the best player in the world that you don't need a buttload of discs to win, or be a great disc golfer.

Congratulations on such clear victories two years in a row and the best overall success of any disc golfer this season. McWinning 2013

Paul, when will we see a McBeast Signature A-Series Grip? Were you able to get a copy of NW Indiana Times before you left the area?

 

[greenday]

Paul, it was great to see you for the first time in Nokia. Awesome friendly and down-to-earth attitude, that's probably why you're a winner. And a lot smaller in person

Congrats on another world championship Paul.

What are the differences in course style between Europe and America?

 

[OKNate]

I spotted you using what i think were soccer cleats at EO. Could you tell us about them. (or what ever shoes you wear at dg)

the last 2 pairs of shoes he bought were Solomons. He posted a pic of em on FB. One is a pair of what look more like soft cleats. the others are more of a cross trainer looking shoe.

Looked like he was wearin one of the two pairs at Worlds.

Paul,

How do you play through a blister on your finger caused by tons of snap?

 

[dpo2002]

is there going to be a new signature disc (gator?)

Hopefully a 2x Roc3!

 

[Slider]

maybe a more overstable roc3...possibly a little more stiff, that might do the trick

 

[tbird888]

Hopefully a 2x Roc3!

A stamp change is a given. Considering he got two molds last year, perhaps he'll be snubbed this year...I don't believe that's true, but we need some drama.

 

[CarRamRod]

Beadless Champ Gator3!!!!!

I'd love to see one of these!

Hate to break it to you guy. But I'm pretty sure most people like their Gators with the Bead on haha

Yeah, he's gonna have his heart broken when the McGator comes out & it has a bead on it

Paul, on the off chance you still read this thread, I've got a question:

Could you tell us what your main discs are in your bag, and what percentage of throws you use them? I'm going to guess you probably throw about 6-7 discs 95% of the time, and the rest are utility.

Could you have won Worlds with 6-7 discs in your bag?

Of course he could, but even if he did only throw 6-7 discs, why would he intentionally (and unnecessarily) handicap himself by limiting his bag to those discs if he might find himself in a situation where he needed to throw a shot that he could execute more easily or more reliably with another disc, especially if his competitors are carrying a full complement of discs? Even if he ended up not needing the additional discs, it's better to have them and not need them than need them and not have them.

It's just a hypothetical. I'm not asking him to compete at Worlds with 6 discs. Paul, care to chime in?

you might be alone on this one bigsky... its okay, youll save money on bags forever.
