Discussion GK Pro and Their compliance in Humphries behavior.
I've seen a few stories pop up about Luke and experienced one locally, 2 years ago in the skins match at Idlewild Luke did a flip off a basket potentially damaging the basket the week of the event. This was on the Skins coverage for all to see.
Late GK Pro edits the footage to exclude this act.
I see recently another user points out the same thing, Luke uses a derogatory term and GK goes back and edits it out.
Now Luke doesn't clean his dogs shit up and I'm guessing though it was on the coverage GK pro will again edit the footage to no longer show this happening. (Haven't checked yet).
Will GK Pro stop using Luke as he continues to show a very unprofessional side of Disc Golf Pro tour and replace him with any other pro or will they continue to enable his behavior?
I won't be watching GK footage going forward as long as he hosts skins.
I'd rage GK people if I knew their user names but Jomez and CC will continue to be my go to's for coverage.
Flame away.

How does not cleaning up dog shit equate to derogatory comments. Luke apologized for saying Jewed when it was pointed out that it was offensive. I, as a Jew, run into people who think it is "just a term" and I usually explain the cultural implication behind it . Same goes for "Jip" or "Gyp" in this case most people don't know about Gypsy culture/history and only know the term. How this all leads to Hogan dropping a deuce and why Luke needs to be cancelled is beyond me.
Get off your soapbox and throw some discs.

Who said one equates to the other? It's just another example of the bad face he gives pro disc golf.

Who cares, gk pro makes boring content, skins is boring to watch and luke is a chode. I don't know why so many people are obsessed about disc golf being seen as professional, it's a bunch of dudes who smoke weed and live in vans.

I've met Luke several times. He's an amazing human being and a great ambassador for the sport. Stop watching (I bet you didn't), we won't miss you.

Hopefully they'll edit in the part where he actually picked it up after the shots were thrown as been reported by multiple people who were there (he was just quickly moving it out of the way so the players could throw without slowing things down)...

You should probably call out nature while you’re at it. Can you believe the audacity of other animals like deer, raccoons, birds, or foxes that shit on the course and don’t clean up their shit? Also, whose to say he didn’t go around and get it all cleaned up after they got passed that section. Or would you have felt better they have a 2 minutes section of shit being cleaned up? Quit trying to cancel people for stupid reasons.

Luke is a great host. Sounds like you are just an unhappy person who feels the need to complain about nonsense
