DG Clip of the Year?

This video was posted by Dr. Zaius on the ODSA forums, and I thought it was just too sweet of a video not to share here. Erik “Buck” Smith tees off, right into where Dave Feldberg is crouched down, arranging his bag. It’s definitely one of the coolest sequences I’ve seen, great camera work, great reactions by those involved, and capped off with an excellent putt!

I can only imagine how I would have felt if I were in Erik’s shoes. I can hear my inner monologue now “That felt like a good rip, yeah, look at that thing fly. Oh…s!@$…its headed right towards that guy. OH S%$#, that’s Feldberg! Great. I think I hit him. All right, I’ll have that fat slice of humble pie now….”

Obviously Erik and Dave know each other pretty well though. I love the look on Dave’s face when the disc skips up to him, I’d call it perplexed amusement. And Erik seems unfazed by the fact that his disc is wedged in one of the best player’s legs, mere inches from hitting him in the junk. Just another odd lie for him, that he has to stretch out for, nevermind the dog, it’s still just a routine 35 footer. Simply awesome, you couldn’t script something this good.
