DGPT: Waco Annual Charity Open 13-Mar to 15-Mar-2020

[Always Hyzer Lines]

Great decision by DGPT, Joey and Ryan to put Brodie on that card. If he stays in the 60's he will have played well.

Yeah we're going anyway. Will do the 'air five' for good shots, and no more "hey can I check out that disc" hand-offs.

We might be the only spectators but will get lots of camera time on DGN :thmbup:

Looks like they changed those short technical par5s into par4s this year. Steve should be pleased...

Final hole is par 3 too now, isnt it? The go-for-it and layup shots and total strokes taken are still the same of course but par makes more sense. Previously, as par 4, too many eagle chances on a wide open crush = par is probably not quite right.

I guess now we'll see if par matters or not.

Anybody seeing Ryan Flowers live scoring on udisc? It shows him 6 or 7 putting on every hole, but hitting every circle 2 in regulation. Is this just a typo thing that happens?

Is he getting par-plus-4s for being late?

Yes its clear that's what is happening. I'm guessing the Udisc score guy doesn't know what to do so is just entering 1 drive and then as many putts as is needed to get a par +4.

He's 0/0 in C2 from what I see

 

[Ryan P.]

His 4% C1 putting is a terrible stat though.

I know the DGPT is trying to make this a business and I don't fault them for that but with CV out there, I have a feeling this might be the last Pro Tour event for the near future... They are likely going to be doing this anyway in the weeks/months to come after events get canceled, just give credit or refunds to people who have made the purchase for this month and make this event free to watch.

People are going to be mad anyway, might as well take advantage of some goodwill amongst the people that cant or wont buy the sub. Maybe they can apply for assistance once small businesses start getting stimulus money from the Feds...

I wonder if Eagle broke something after hole 17. .

Fun to see Paige P playing with the "small" Grip CS2 series bag and it does not look that full, so maybe 12-14 discs total

Udisc shows her at +9 through 12 holes. What's happening?

 

[Cgkdisc]

Doesn't even show she has any OB penalties.

 

[brutalbrutus]

Looks like she played plinko on the last woods hole.

 

[Bigtex]

the coverage was pretty solid but jvphobic if you read this WE NEED A CHAT

She doesn't have enough discs obviously

Gotta use that udisc chat!

Probably something you like I'm sure. Not having to mod the YT chat. I couldn't imagine do all that while running the feeds.

 

[Jolt]
