Nope!

I know they got one tester putt and maybe a drive but not much else.

...in the eyes of the DGCR user. We are still a long ways away from where the majority of average disc golfers know what is going on with Prodigy, or can even name five top pros regardless of affiliation. I think, being in the DGCR bubble, we tend to overstate the impact these players have on the overall outlook of the sport. They have certainly affected the pro side.

apparently you've never been a track, swim, cycling or ski athlete, among many others. a company, state, or other group will have a team comprised of individuals who compete together against others.
use your brains guys, i know it's just the internet, just the comparisons to the other golf are bad enough...

This.

The average player barely knows who Ken Climo is, much less Team Prodigy.

Highest rated round ever!

Not saying it isn't the best round ever but it is harder to make that claim compared to the rock solid fact it will be the highest rated round and the new watermark for the stat.

Thanks for bringing up the semantics of it. You made my philosophical heart skip a beat.

I love how McBeth said at the awards "Will put his Firebird closer than mine." and walked away.
There was a lot of drama and tension and some stuff said that was bull**** that still hasn't been put out there. This year will be interesting for all companies

Least we know what was said by Paul after accepting his trophy. That's kinda funny though. That's what I didn't get about the whole.."Team Prodigy had blah blah amount of players in the top 5 for a lot of divisions at the Memorial..." Until they are throwing all Prodigy plastic, and not whatever the hell they feel like throwing.. to me, they're just individual players throwing what ever the hell kinda plastic they feel like throwing and not this "Team Prodigy" lots of people keep referring to them as. Like someone mentioned already.. these guys were in the top 10 of the world before this whole Prodigy thing started. Them getting a new sponsor wasn't going to change that.
