This week on the Barely Stable Podcast the boys take a look at Eagle McMahon's video on the release of the Wynn Dragon… But is the song and dance really a “Wynn” for Eagle? Also, disc golf travel: we’ll have a preview of some new gear for traveling with your discs, and we’ll break down the must-have discs you should take if you can’t travel with your full bag.
Different climates and elevation can have a huge effect on how your discs fly. The team goes over what some of the differences are and what to expect depending on where you’re playing. Also Nick has a pimp new disc bag to show us, and Freeberg shares (a little too much) a story about a close call in the airport caused by having disc golf discs in his carry-on bag.
Join us for all this, a breakdown on why society still needs bullies, and another AI wrap song that freaking slaps. This is the Barely Stable Podcast, where the only rule is “Just Be Cool”

Playing alone is one of the best things you can do to learn your discs and improve your game.

The Barely Stable Podcast is back and ready to hit hard with some big-time opinions about the PDGA and disc golf culture. Does the PDGA need to wake up to the times? Does calling a non-existent foot fault make you a turd? And what’s up with the play-off system for the DGPT? We’ll answer all these questions and more!
Host’s Daniel Freeberg and Nick Barr talk about the ups and downs of local disc golf leagues. The team discusses the differences between Sudden Death and Aggregate playoff systems, and figures out the best way for the DGPT to decide which to use and when. And finally, you’ll get to see Producer Daniel Rigdon’s super awesome “Wrap it up Jerks” dance.

This week, The Barely Stable Boys discuss some serious issues with the PDGA and how they handle security, some less serious issues with local tournaments and how they handle unpopular changes, and they talk to a local disc golfer who survived a bite by a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake.
With the threat to the Music City Open Fresh in the minds of the disc golf world, the boys take a hard look at what was done, and what should be done to improve security and player safety at pro tournaments. Moving closer to home, they discuss the Capital of Texas Open, and the loss of Roy G Guerrero Park as one of the courses for the AM’s to play in that tournament, and find out what NOT to do if you get bit by a venomous snake with the first rendition of Freeberg in the Field.
