[Craig Smolin]

this is another amazing Scandinavian course ... makes me want to take a vacation there ... as long as my wife would actually let me bring discs with me, because there's no way she'd let me go without her.

Check it out he's got a little different perspective to disc golf compared to others. He gets paid

Great videos, but those three last Dutch open videos you just ruined with your comments.
Please make comment free versions.

That's a pretty poorly executed left-handed complement. Maybe you should spend hours filming and editing your own footage instead of making tasteless comments like that.

Not cool, tiger aqua. These guys put a ton of time and effort into these videos. There's no need to insult them like that. There are better ways to give criticism.

[JR]

There are some no comments clips on Youtube.

It's alright. People have different preferences and you can't please everyone. One can only hope to not offend too many. For style and content we do need feedback to see what the majority opinion is. And what people would like to hear in commentary style and information wise.

It is true that this is a rush job. I don't have enough free hours to do any better than this at the moment. I'm busy with work and don't have the time to practice let alone comment with a sore throat. Flu. This commentary was made with fewer retakes than normal because i was in a rush to get this ready prior to this years Dutch Open.

We've had feedback from pro players liking the sparse commentary in earlier work. At least for some the host droning on in every throw in commercial videos made by others is a distraction from the competition. I understand the need of new players to have more explanation. I wanted to see the reactions to more narration. Because the events are long i wanted to give the watchers some breaks still so there's a little less narration in the earlier rounds.

We have plans for Dutch Open and Stockholm Disc Golf Open 2010 that are unlike other projects we made. It's not ready for public announcement yet but it necessitates the explanation of fundamentals. So that those that have never heard of disc golf and new players can follow what's going on and get a leg up on improving in playing skills should they get interested in getting deeper into this great sport. With that goal in mind i planned to go even more into the nuts and bolts for a beginner crash course. I know that it isn't popular with the more experienced players but i think it needs to be done for the greater good of the sport. Sorry to those that are already moaning. We need to target as many different types of people as possible with these projects.

Ok that comment was little harsh and made at 3.30 saturday night.
But seriously there is some useful comments about OB, wind etc. You don't have to comment every throw or putt.

That's my preference too as a viewer. But i'm trying to do a public service so my wants must take the second seat.

[Whiz]

I COMPLETELY disagree with aqua. I thought your commentary was a fantastic contrast to the Billy Crump's and Cubby's of disc golf videos. I loved it. Keep it up. It was a great deadpan approach with no going crazy (verbally) over good or bad shots.

[Steady 26542]

I'm with Whiz. I loved the comments and you didn't go on and on. I do love where you show the distance for the hole before the first throwers shot. I get a better idea of how far the throws are going. Keep up the great work. Super videos!

Where'd Ville disappar to halfway through pt.4?

[Star Shark]

Where'd Ville disappar to halfway through pt.4?

Ville goes through elbow troubles now and then. A side effect of throwing so many overheads and sidearms, no doubt.

Just seemed kinda strange, he just finished ripping a great drive and was joking around in the background as the others drove, then no shot of him putting followed by a quick DFN and on to the next hole sans ville.

Anyway, great work on the coverage JR, thanks again for all the work, really enjoyed it. That course looks awesome too, i'd love to get over there for it one year.

[JR]

That's not a permanent course. This year the Dutch Open is held in another town on another temp course.
