Brodie Smith PDGA #128378

Man...First time I've watched him play and gotta say I'm really impressed. Needs to refine aspects of his game like the drive on 15 that got away from him but he gets some consistency going he'll be a force to reckon with.

Also, the big fella can putt - usually lol.

Of all the things Paul has helped him with, that putting form will likely be the thing that helped him the most in the long run.
 
So, Brodie and Foundation Disc Golf, is the first Idlewild post coverage to hit?? Hmmmmm....maybe this Brodie kid has some marketing game, hmmmmm?

I guess that's one way to get a caddie out there for him.

Edit: not taking anything away from the guy, he played pretty damn good. Just thinking he benefited from having (presumably hunter) someone from foundation helping him with what to throw.

Brodie works hard, both on and off the course. Nobody can deny that. That is going to take him a long way in this sport (and life). Regardless of what his ceiling ends up being (1030?) he's going to be successful in this sport, be it with his Youtube channels, Patreon, marketing, media, etc.

He's got that magical "it factor" which is really disguised as passion and worth ethic that is the biggest factor between success and failure regardless of the endeavor.
 
Well... if you're going to go bogey, dubogey… throwing one in for bird from 60+ is the way to respond on the next hole, lol.
 
He better get his **** together or this round might get ugly. Looking at a dubogey at least on the KY hole which would put him at +3 for the round with the hardest holes still to play...
 
I would think that the expectation should be that he will be inconsistent. From hole to hole, round to round, and tournament to tournament.

He's been playing at the pro level for basically a month. Expecting or predicting consistency seems like a stretch. I wouldn't be surprised by really anything that happens in a given round, from fouling the bed to shooting lights out.
 
Decent job of limiting the damage on the back9. With 4 OBs and only 45% for the round in fairway hits... +3 probably isn't too bad considering.
 
Per this ^ vid; he was very pure with his ground green placements. Greens in the creek area (astro turf greens) have extremely little room for error. And (correct me if I'm wrong); he played them all fantastically...some from some distance away.

Yea. The shots on 5 and 16 were really good. The one on 17 was almost shorted into the creek but it barely made it.
