Co-host Paul "Mr. B" Belyea and myself will be bringing it to you live from the course via the world wide web from USDGC again this year. It was a great sucess last year and it will be event better this year. I just wanted to let the cat out of the bag so get ready to get nothing done at work while the leaders are on the course. We will bring you live and recorded interviews from all of your favorite and not so favorite players as well as loads of inside info straight from the course at the best tournament in disc golf.

We will be monitoring this message board and one or two others as well as email. Start thinking about questions that you would like us to ask, and or info you may have wanted and never knew who to ask.

Question #1:

How it feel to have one of the COOLEST JOBS in Disc Golf?!!! :D

I can't wait. :D

Man, I did not get any work done for a week last year.

Man, I did not get any work done for a week last year.



Neither did I but I still Got PAID !!! :D

It was certainly one of the coolest things I have ever done and I am looking forward to it even more this year.

what is the email addy and will you guys be using dot technology?? now that was cool

Of course we are doing the Dots with a twist or two...

he is the mullet behind TThe DoTTs

kewl

The Dotmeister can't be stopped.

I'd like to see a player's face smile back at me when I move the cursor over a dot so I don't have to remember who is what color. (Not that I'll be anywhere near a computer, though when the action is hopping). Can that happen?

Joe

maybe.... ;)

From the other part of the dot team..

He is the other mullet behind the dots.

There should be a way to communicate how far the putts are when the dots approach the green.

We should put mic's on the dots, so they could fill us in on what they want to do, providing the disc cooperates.

How about some heart rate monitors on the players so that you can see how much pressure is on them during the current putt?

That may be more than the players want you to know.

would love to just watch it live on TV as it happens! now that would be awesome!

some day, it will be on several channels, one that we can all get. but for now. It's the dots

How about some heart rate monitors on the players so that you can see how much pressure is on them during the current putt?

You really only need those on 3 holes, Hole 1, 13 aka 888, and 17. Definitely pucker time on those 3 tees.

Someone at the PDGA needs to approach Versus, Disc Golf has to be more TV friendly than cycling.

Years ago when they were OLN (and in minimal distribution) the PDGA did indeed pay for and receive some production and broadcast services on that network (a Worlds, I think).

As has been pointed out many times before, money and numbers talk. Bicycling is a huge sport in world-wide terms. Disc golf is not, yet.

Did see some kid Scrabble on one sports network or another the other day. Will wonders never cease?

Joe

Years ago when they were OLN



I remember seeing the Colorado State Championships on OLN in 1996. Very cool to see DG on TV. Too bad we've been taking 1 step forward and 3 steps back when it comes to TV coverage since then.

AMEN!

Who in the PDGA is working on business development and progression such as TV and mass media involvement??

I love DOTS, they taste good! :D

They stick in the teeth however. :mad:

Even if it didn't do well, I think the fact alone that Disc golf was once on cable TV 11 years ago and given the progression of the sport in terms of the number of courses, disc sales, PDGA members, and exponentially increasing # of recreational disc golfers in those 11 years, I can't believe that we can't get more airtime if someone is working on this...if we don't I think that should be a priority for our sport

I think that falls under John Duessler, the marketing director.

ps. this year, for the lead card Scorekeeper, It's Barry, not Berry. That really made me laugh.

And no one is more happy than me that you are a commentator again this year, Brian... :D

I hope this doesn't mean Amy is pregnant again. :D

And a great job you did. Best week of work yet. This year, can you make TThe Pro (Schweberger) a red dot, and JJ a blue dot. You know they will be on the lead card so just getting my recommendation in early. I ha a vision.

Mini Thumber

Is that some kind of announcement?

Is that some kind of announcement?



God i hope not.....Unless Lamoreaux's been over again. :D

Hey Mace,

As I mentioned to you before, it would be cool if the the DOTs could give us an enlarged view of the green when the lead group is putting....similar to golf video games. The way it was displayed last year, it was impossible to discern the putting distance of each player.

They have made a lot of changes and I think that is one of them.

Do you plan on breaking out random audio snipits like you did last year? People at work could tell I was up to no good when they heard the cash machine, homer whoohoos and whatever else was thrown out there. Looking forward to being a slacker while listening to the broadcast :D

Brian, is it possible to mic up each player during the round so we can listen to them cuss out the yellow rope?

During your web cast interviews, I think listeners would like to hear how players learned about disc golf and what was their first course to play. :)

Yes MC I will be using the sound bites....many ore in the works.

That is a great suggestion Jerry, I will use it.

I am working on interviews with several players including past champions, and many more will follow on that side.

I am also going to interview people from behind the scenes such as Jonathan Poole, Harold Duvall, as well as many many others. So if you have any questions that you would like to hear answers to or things you were wondering about that someone here can answer, I will track them down and ask that question so let them fly.

That is too funny, how do you get them to do that Brian?

Are the dots ready to keepe busy at work?

Mini Thumber

I do believe so

Your name is on my list as a player.....are you not coming Conners?

mace you need to get my name on that list and I will show up :D

We will both be there Brian. :D

Leaving OKC in the Twisted Tundra in 30 minutes!!! See everyone in Rock Hill! :D

have a safe trip oh twisted one.

No no Seahorse you need to get your name on that list and I will be glad to see you here. I will do my best to make it seem like you are here. And you will still get the same amount of work done as usual Chris.... not sure how much work that is but the same.

I don't see near enough Texas names on that list, I hope to see more in the future.

Joe load up those catch phrases and come on...and you other Okies, Dave you can settle a score when you get here from the summer. Something you message board mouth got you into.....

I am going to interview the following people in the next few days, id there anything that any of you would like me to ask them.

Here is the list

Jonathan Pool
Harold Duvall
Rock and Pat Searle
Billy Crump
Steve Hackenberg
Kevin "Mr Dot" Smith
Brandon Mace
Trey Johnson
Michael Shugart
Paul Bergey
Zeb and Cindy Campbell
Sam Covington
Neal Lanier
Dave Dunapace
Brian Graham
Andy Green
and many more....

If there is someone that you would like to hear from I will also do my best to get an interview with them as well, just let me know.

Didn't know "Lightning" had a relative in the disc golf world.

It would be a long way down a distant branch.

I saw your name and could only guess what you would say.

I saw your name and could only guess what you would say.



Oh, you just wait until Championship week. :D

One Texican that will be very far from home next week is Vinny Miller!!!! It's about you got out of Texas for some golf!

I've got a question for Kevin "Mr Dot" Smith. Although, I suppose it's something I could have asked him in this forum.

It "Dot" technology was pretty stable last year, and with even more development time and features added, it sounds like it's going to be even better this year. How much time went into it's development. What technologies are being employed, from the server software down to the walkie talkies? Is this something that you'd be interested in making available to the NT tournaments or others (assuming they wanted to take on the additional work necessary to do it)? Is this technology owned by the PDGA?

The Dots are very virtual spectator friendly and, in my opinion, add another level of professionalism to the presentation of disc golf in general. NBA and other sports have similar technologies and your implementation is just as professional as theirs. Thanks for all the work and I'll definitely be following them dots from work!

OK...

Elvis, Jimmi Hoffa, Osama bin Laden, God - I'd just like to know who they are pulling for

appreciate it.

Dave

Dave JR of course :cool:

Dave you can settle a score when you get here from the summer. Something you message board mouth got you into.....




You're on! :D

I can't wait to showem what a hyzer is /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

You better get here in time to work on your lefty hyzer.

I have been doing just that

Stan,
The development of the Dots started in mid August of 2006 as Jonathan Poole and I were watching the coverage of the PDGA World Championships online. We were talking on the phone, both in front of our computers discussing the pros and cons of online coverage. Both thinking about how we can set the bar higher for the US Championship.

JP had concerns of how many windows he had open at one time while watching the live scoring. Including a pdf map of the course and the live scoring window and the site. Then it was born that we would try to combine all of these into one screen. It took about 1 month to develop the app and another few weeks to tweek it to perfection before the tournament. During this testing period, we fooled around with adding discs to the graphic to show the position of the player. (Mike Norris was heavily involved in this discussion as well as testing. Chris 'Stick' MacLeod was also another chief tester.)

Last years dots worked so well that it has become a staple of the online coverage at the US Championship, but I could not just let it be. We are always looking for ways to make it better. This year took me 3 months to develop the app and I am still testing it. I have heavily compressed and optimized the files to make sure the downloading is at a minimum, cross your fingers.

I am sure that anyone can take a look at what we are doing and make their own version that accomplishes the same thing until we can get some TV love. It takes alot of time and passion to pull it off, as well as 4 dedicated and excited people. Chris MacLeod, Mike Norris, Erik Speight, Kevin Smith.

As of right now the dots are evolving, so I am not sure who owns them other than the fact that this is Innova's tournament and they pay for me to make this happen. Without them I would not be doing exactly what I want and love.

Although this technology only has a 2 week shelf life before I throw it away and start fresh from what I have learned, I still don't want to give away all the secrets. This is what I am going to tell you, it may not be true... :eek:

Each throw that is made will be marked using a complex new SNMS Foil Webnet Interactive Dot Laser System. Every 45 seconds the dots will be updated for the world to watch! And the dots may have a little attitude this year.

Attitude is Good! :cool:

And the dots may have a little attitude this year.




Maybe :) DOTS for great shots, and :mad:DOTS for OB? Can't wait to see the bag kick'n DOT! :D

Perhaps a crown on or instead of a certain player's dot, a dot split apart at the bottom showing a straddle putter, a period instead of dot for a "short" player, a black dot for an Oregonian, a thumb instead of dot for one player...

Thanks Kevin. Your working with some serious tech there :).

Those dots have gotten pretty important, so some attitude is understandable. I'll be following every one of em next week.

Its late for it to be included this year, but looking at what MLB.com does with their lines for individual pitches, any chance NEXT YEAR we could see actual lines demonstrating the flight path taken on a throw?

So instead of just a dot representing where player A (we'll call him TTTThumbbber) is we see a faint (maybe semi-transparent) line from teepad to where TTTThumbbber's drive landed, and another to where TTTThumbbber's next shot landed, each following a line similar to the one his throw took. That'd be really cool.

I tried that during development this year. It made the whole thing way to busy and hard to look at. But maybe I will come up with something.

dont agitate the dots (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19rVKy_pfFU)

I wish I could find the audio only for that commercial. YO YO YO John Boy can you find it?

so this maybe a newby question but how will i get to view this?

It is a radio show so you will have to listen to it.

My new email is [email protected] btw.

I have looked all over and I can't seem to find the show.

The show is not currently broadcasting. We will be posting a link on the main usdgc.com site when the audio show goes live. The information is hidden once the show is off the air as there will be nothing to listen to.

Ah good thought I was going crazy.

Just tap your heels together and say "There's no place like Rock Hill, there's no place like Rock Hill." Follow that with a strong, loud version of "YO, YO, YO your boat" and Mace and Mr B will magically start broadcasting.

there on

the show (http://www.usdgc.com/lead-group-live-audio-show/)

Bobby Jones 2 4 3 4 6 3 3 5 4 4 5 4 6 4 4 3 5 5 74 6

Figured yall might want some questions on air:
How is the course playing compared to last year and other years based on the first scores that are in.

Whats the weather looking like up there this afternoon? Wind? Rain?

Are you getting Brandon Mace to do any work out there? We missed him at league yesterday, back here in KS. Great interview with the Champ!

QUESTION:

How many spectators today?

Question:

Is everyone expecting rain for the weekend?

Are they ready?

Question:

Will you(Mace) and Mr B. sing a duet? Perhaps Yo Yo Yo your boat? :p

I second this motion. :D

You should get the interviewie's closer to the mic Brian. Kinda hard to hear them.

Steve Rico got an ace on Hole 7. Is there an Ace Fund at the USDGC? If so, is it optional or included with entry fee?


BTW, your voice is loud and clear Mace, but I can barely hear Brian.

Also, the interview with Ken had louder audio than your live broadcast.

You should get the interviewie's closer to the mic Brian. Kinda hard to hear them.





What he said! :D

`Val's in 51

with a 74

NICE!!! YO Yo You're a NUT!!

Lol they sang...

I see Val had a nice +6 today.

She's 1 stroke behind McCoy

Will there be any more coverage on dgtv today?

Look at the Ratings for those rounds!!

We should have a live video web cast!

have you guys talked about the destroyer craze yet?????Did Donny set the destroyer market on fire? does anybody know how many he has???

Mace,
from Discette on another thread.

"I found a way to bypass the scoring page that is not loading correctly.

Click on Overall Leaderboard in new window, then you can click on the name of any player and see the individual hole by hole scoring."

You should talk about players who we have not heard much about. Talk about players new to the Open division this year that could make a run at the tourney.

$2000.00 for a disc,....
$1475.00 for a disc,...

That's some good dope!

Mace,

Pick me up a spectator roc and I will get you back when you get home to Tejas. :D

Cool, Can't wait to hear from the future.

Go G.G. and Team Gateway!

cool!
great job on the broadcast
are you talking about scores as they come in or will you have anyong out on the coures?
jay slack

Old MacDonald had a farm!,....

Sing it boys!

Click on the individual golfer's name and you will get the hole by hole scores for him/her.

so the scores we are seeing they are not correct?

You talked about hole 17 with Brian McRee earlier... about that the drop zone was gone this year...

Too bad for Hans Tegeback from Sweden who came to hole 17 with a -4 score.... He shot a twelve and followed it up with a seven on 18. Ouch!!!

Only on USDGC :)

Could you please put the Mic Closer to the person being interviewd and farther away from mace.

I have to go up and down on the volume just to hear and keep from being blasted away.

other than that you guys are great

Brian,

Would you mind getting some of the top players to provide some insight into their practice regimine. Listening to Kenny's comments about being a dad and not being able to be gone as much, I am curious if there is something that can be shared to help players improve their game when they are not getting to play as many tournaments.

Yeah, Post It.

Matt is a great ambassador for DG

Good picture man also!!

I love the DOTS!!!!

But they get stuck in your teeth!!

Somebody's cell phone is vibrating...

Dots look great this year, loving the rollers.

Question: What day do they spectator rocs get released? Are there any champ ontarios?

Somebody's cell phone is vibrating...

Bad temper?

Marcus is 7 down through 12.

Home, With the Flu.

Work.......but that's what multi-tasking is all about!

I could possibly be in Class... Wouldn't want to admit it though.

He is a good kid when he isn't on the course.

At the library here at the University of South Carolina.

Shout out to Mace, great radio show..

GO CUBBIES!!!! WORLD SERIES HERE WE COME!!

sweet go get some players mace

Dude, I just left the library...I was listening on my laptop. You just missed me because Im back at the house. The show is great and I wish I could have qualified on Monday again this year but just haven't had the time. We need to get together and play soon. Go Cocks!!!

How is the ice cream? Homemade isn't it?

a 26 on hole 17
how is that possible?

Would have to have thrown a lot of disc in the water.

Hole #17,.. a 26, a 15, a couple of 12s and some 11s!!!!

Mace... when you talk to Marty about the 26 let him know that thats nice and all but he shoulda put a couple more strokes on there to break the record... according to World record page... http://www.frivolist.com/index_6.htm

the current record for highest score on any hole is a 27!

A record everyone wants there name on.

here's a couple things from the Records page...

looks like he should've broke the 2nd record listed though!

Highest Pro Score on one hole in tourney
27 by ??? PGA National course during the �storm of the century�.(See DGWN #47-IBTWHA #5-P.40-42)

(Huge apologies to John Andrews who was reported to have held this dubious honor. The real owner of this distinction has not stepped up to claim it)

Most OB's on one hole
Bobby Jones (PDGA #3087) splashed 9 discs in a lake @ hole 12 during a tourney downpour @ Firefighters Park in Rochester, MI.

throw 1, drop 2, throw 3, drop 4, throw 5, drop 6, throw 7, drop 8, throw 9, drop 10, throw 11, drop 12, throw 13, drop 14, throw 15, drop 16, throw 17, drop 18, throw 19, drop 20, throw 21, drop 22, throw 23, drop 24, throw 25 and make putt.

If that is how it happened that would be 12 shots OB.

barry i noticed at the charlotte open you were listenin to the mp3 player . are you doin that this week?

what kinda music are you listenin to?

Wyngaard shot an OB free round I believe... he should have dibs on the bounty!

what does barry think about the fact that his score might not have qualified him from the Monday qualifier? ... and Climo would've just barely squeaked in.

Yo Yo Yo your boat

Love the RENNY & STAN shout outs!!!

Wyngaard shot an OB free round I believe... he should have dibs on the bounty!



I think he wins a BOX of DOTS !!! :D

Not a single birdie listed on hole 11 so far.

are yo kidding me
a pro not in the ace pot
i understand the novice player
but this type of player can post a 58 at the usdgc and no ace pot
how much did it cost?

Looks like Baartman, Climo and Brinster got threes on 11 but it still looks like it might really play as a par 5, especially now that the SSA is rolling in close to 70. BTW, if a player shoots more than 60 points below their rating, their score isn't used to determine the SSA and ratings for that round. So those double digit scores on 17 may not boost the SSA for today.

There goes the phone again...

I wish I could Be There instead of in my little box.

Cant wait to leave and go play leage in Mulvane KS

tv would be cool
but this is a step in the right direction
i think tv and radio will come

but how about odds making using the ratings
you get people wagering on it and the masses will demand to see it on tv and radio

Good discussion on growth of the sport. It doesn't just happen overnight, at least not if the players are to still have some control. It took ball golf hundreds of years to get to where it is today. It has taken the USGA and PGA decades to make their sport into one with mass appeal and enough interest to generate viewership and dollars.

You can't just make disc golf BIG overnight - it takes patience and long-term committment.

Kudos to you guys on the air.

outstanding interview Mace and JP

Is Nikko still in town? Is he J.B.'s caddy?

In mountain time... came home early to listen and get work done :) Have to admit there's been much more listening than working!

Must use this opportunity - Colorado States is next weekend. Come see how Mikey and Roddy do it at home. And figure out if Chuck Kennedy was right - we had to find the one flat spot in the state and throw up some rope for them to practice before they left :D

feldberg is in w/ a 64

OK, who can simplify the Dot finding, and the up to date info. For those of us that are not pc gifted. Mike!

the 26
i do not know how it could happen ?
at what point do think he had to start counting out loud
and how long did other players have to wait to witness this total melt down

Umm...everyone is now in.

Nice listening to you guys, and the players in Montreal will be happy to know that Mr. B will soon be amongst them.

Maybe you can get people to sign their online petition, which is available in English or French, which is trying to draw in more support to get their first permanent disc golf course, which is long overdue.

Did the weather play any factor in the scores on 17?

great show guys
i enjoyed it
i will be sure to listen all weekend
slack

Unload the bag!?,..

I think someone did that on #17 Today!!!

I grew up playing Mt Airy!!!!!

The lay out is alot different now at Round Rock

Thanks for tuning in. Keep the questions coming.

Yeah Mr DJ Guy can you play some SKYNARD!!!!!

Go CO!! Randolph and Baca shootin 60's

I accidentaly stumbeled across a web site today that would update player scores about every 6 holes. Anyone know where that is?

Mini and Multiple Thumber

go to the USDGC leaderboard page (http://www.usdgc.com/10/03/leaderboard) and the click on the picture.

You probably want the individual rounds rather than the overall. The site was up and down today, so probably expect more of the same throughout the week as folks tune in more and more. THen again, maybe the USDGC folks are on top of that and trying to fix it :)

what time do you hit the air today ?

o and kev what happened to the cubbies last night
you need a rally cap or something

Yeah Mr DJ Guy can you play some SKYNARD!!!!!



FREEEEEEEEBIIIIIIIRD!!

Hey Mace, ask Kevin about those Cubbies. Be polite though, definitely wait until after the round!

and Ask him about little Rhyne.

Streaming an interview now With Dave Feldberg.

i can hear dave walking through the tunel o be pure o be pure

Please ask the players that you interview today what scores they carded on Hole 17 and if they think the hole is fair or unfair.

Thanks

And what type of shot they threw (sidearm/backhand and disc).

Firefox no go today? Yesterday fine. IE works fine. Loud and clear now.

tell Nature boy and Zeb I dunked my phone in the ocean last week, and I need them to call me so I have there number again.

Great work guys! Wish I was there!

It may not be your browsers as much as it could be just the bandwidth available at any point you try to activate the radio.

Is there a link to the Dots.....

Go cory Sharp, He has played in a bunch of my local events here in Boise Idaho. I have watched him put it over 600 with first run surges.

http://www.usdgc.com/leadgrouplive/thursday/index.html

Can't get the audio....using IE. Any tips, ideas? Would have loved to hear Harold and Dave... :(

Its playing for me, but I can barely hear, can you please speak into the Mic, or turn the volume up PLEASE.

Great Interview

Hold down the control button when you click the link.

Is Dave D. still there?

yup

What did Dave think about Christian Dietrich? He wants an Innova Sponsorship and has turned down a Gateway sponsorship.

just finished

lost the dots...anyone else?

Yep

My Dots! Where are my dots!?

Do they archive these interviews, or are you just SOL if you miss it?

the whole usdgc.com is down

We will be archiving all of the dots, even if the apache is having some issues with how many people are watching. Hope to have it back up soon.

Do you think that we can camp in front of the proshop friday night so we get an early shot at the Spectator Rocs? I hear they lowered the limit to 5?!?!?


J/K but i hear its going to be a free for all

Mine too.
