New Clash :/

[Trey133]

Must have Clashes:

Renny Gold
Winthrop Gold
Vallarta Ast
Blue Ribbon Pines

Meh:

Cliff Stephens (I wanted to like it so badly)
Hornets Nest

The mixed format with best / worst / tough is just not as fun to watch.

I would take Winthrop Gold and put it in the Meh: Category. Other than that your list is perfect. In terms of all around amazing shots, I would put BRP over Renny gold, with Vallarta Ast at the end. In order of most suck to least suck, I would put Hornets nest over Winthrop, and then cliff stephens at the end (just because I really enjoy watching Markus on that course, I would almost put this in the OK section, but yea it sucked.

What dvd's would people here suggest as a MUST HAVE. I'd like to have something around to pop in when the "What are all these frisbees for?" conversation pops up.

The Tali Open 2009 dvd when it comes out, most definitely. The youtube material by lcgm8 is already by far the best disc golf footage available and from what I gather the dvd versions are going to be even better.

Aargh! The shop I ordered the new sound card for hosting recording from did at first not order it at all. Now it missed the deadline. I may have to start looking around for alternatives after making a ¤(/)#Q&¤&(#¤" call.

2003 USDGC... Most of it's not great, but the Ken/Barry duel is just spectacular.

I was underwhelmed with the 2003 usdgc DVD. I know it was recorded 7 long years ago, but I don't think the footage was that great, quality-wise. I think there were a few instances where the cameraman forgot to zoom in on the discs in flight. The announcers who did the play by play/narration were annoying, IMO. As far as the battle, all they did was play the same boring two holes over and over again! I kind of figured they'd do 18 again until someone screwed up, like sudden death. I'm not a hater, I guess maybe I've been spoiled by the Clash series and what I've seen by Icgm8.

Best of the Clash-

Blue Ribbon Pines
Vallerta-Ast.

lcgm8 has definitely bitch slapped other DG video formats. him/them and diskheadcage.

Yep, Icgm8 and diskheadcage are the best on youtube. I know Icgm8's got a dvd in the works, and I'm convinced diskheadcage has enough followers to warrent a grassroots dvd. Clash needs some competition.

Clash needs some competition.

ooh, please nothing competitive with Clash
something really well done would be nice tho

Commentary during filming... that would not fly even in a highschool AV class

I do like to loop Renny Gold with the sound off.. pretty cool visual of a pro-casual round. The old guy / young guy shred-fest is the best part too.

2003 USDGC... Most of it's not great, but the Ken/Barry duel is just spectacular.

also heard good things about the Skylands Classic DVD

2003 usdgc battle is amazing. It helps to know that course though to appreciate what they are doing. Barry also didn't bird hole 1 all week until the playoff loops.

Skylands is good for checking out warwick and you get a chance to see 2 cards worth of pros. The film is a little washed out though.

St. Louis open is a good one for watching Barry, Nikko and Justin.

My favorite vids though are the usdgc lead cam ones. The quality isn't the best...no disc golf vids are, but the insight from the player's commentary is great. Hearing them talk about why and how they played a hole is cool. And hearing them talk about which mold is being through helps too.

msdgc 2004 is the bomb though for watching Cam and Ron Russel.

I just checked out diskheadcage. Very nice quality. I especially approve of the music.

Ungh! The shop I ordered the new sound card from Denmark from Rolands Scandinavian distribution center which received the order. Unfortunately they left my order hanging in the system due to some glitch. It's coming now that it was sorted by telephone but there's a strike in harbors and transportation which screws me royally because equipment trouble has postponed things for a month already. Nice doing business with professionals who don't seem to be interested in getting money. If there were equal products available I'd said ¤&#ggit and gotten an alternative. Sigh.

Clash brp is my favorite of the series, but my fiancé bought me the tupelo bay DVD and my god it is the worst disc golf DVD I've seen. If you watched any YouTube videos then you've seen this DVD. Attrocious video quality, random holes to follow (you get no sense of the leaders if the tourney or standings of the competitors) and on the second DVD Billy Is announcing with a mouth full of food on one hole. Really disappointed in the quality of this product.

Deaf guy here - based on the action - it is totally random and the angles suck. I did not enjoy tupelo bay.

My personal fave is still Marshall street with Cam Todd's Hot round.

Renny Gold Best Shot doubles would be #2.

I got in BRP and hornets nest yesterday. BRP is awesome.

[Trey133]

BRP rocks!

Watching Nikko 360 is kinda neat

[dgdave]

Hornets nest is a tough watch.

[scoot_er]

BRP rocks!

Watching Nikko 360 is kinda neat

He said Cale made him look bad by throwing a good shot and making him try something stupid which more often then not didn't work out.
