DGPT All Star Outcome
Teams Battle:
MPO Winners: Team Isaac
FPO Winners: Team Missy
Driving: Anthony Barela (713’) and Eliezra Midtling 16 yrs old (503’)
Accuracy: Chris Dickerson and Jessica Weese
Putting: Andrew Marwede and Ohn Scoggins
Streaming notes:
Couldn’t find option to cast the stream from DGN app to TV, became available for Chess.com
Stream was smooth, no skipping or glitching
PDGA Live app - UDisc aesthetics are better
Understand the reasoning, but not happy that they cut the rounds to 9 holes
Didn’t need the drone shots of the distance and accuracy competitions, would have been better with just an overhead drone view of the distance at least
Just a quick notation… Distance difference between FPO and MPO winners was over 200’, Accuracy winners scores differed from top scores of 19 to 33, Putting ends with top scores for FPO at 42 and MPO at 55
2024 Chess.com Invitational just finished up yesterday!

Vegan Leather… is it made from PVC (Bad) or something better like MYLO or Pinatex?
Final Question - Should Disc Golf just be called Disc?
You play golf, you go golfing, you play disc, you go discing.
Separates us from golf, at least in name
Less issues with how it’s pronounced by mainstream media and newcomers
Skipace.com | League - DGS Puttcasters - Update after 1 event
