[Applause] hello and welcome back to round two coverage from the open at Austin presented by flight Factory discs you are watching the back n on Jes Pro we’re here on stop three on the disc golf pro tour and you’re watching big sexy Barry Nate ston Jeremy coing Paul

And so far the story of the second round On Moving Day hasn’t necessarily been the exellar play from the league card it’s been more about the incredible rounds that are being slapped down all around the course each player on our league card today has taken a bogey in

One of the last two holes gonur he is is does it say 15 under through 17 holes I think one of those was an eagle on hole five but incredible stuff out there right now these guys are still in the mix obviously uh Back N has a lot of scoring potential starting with

This hole right here where we saw Nicholas anula get the hole in one yesterday but they’ve got to get things moving if they want to be on our league card going into Championship Sunday yeah I mean hold 10’s going to be playing as easy as it can possibly play no wind

Sidearm wide low give yourself the skip or we saw how Mato even played it with the big Fleck shot down the hill slow turning putter really want to just focus on your speed control here cuz it can get away from you if it gets a wild

Skip I would say there’s a left to right Breeze this needs to slow down this is coming in pretty hot on this screen and that out of bounds wall will just keep it’s not close enough where it’s going to deflect back in bounds yeah that’s that speed control fortunately he’s only

Going to be 33 feet away like this yeah perfect shot there oh we’re going up okay delivery on the 13th floor and the birdie has landed I do like that play if you have it double G went with a similar shot in my group pretty cool line to

Watch very wide but this is looking to be moving in nicely here from mared and just outside Bullseye yeah I like the wide play right there nothing really could go wrong worst case he just hits and sticks and he’s like Circle Edge that’s right and Gavin will be taking a

Costly bogy here on 10 number one C2 putting hole on the course 13 out of 24 players and I’m guessing all 13 of them were from the Drop Zone it’s hard to be on this island and not be inside C1 birdie for Corey Birdie for

Andrew and we got to give a shout out to a couple more hole in ones in round two Austin Turner and Trevon Crow so the ace count on whole 10 alone is up to Three yeah so it shows Ganon as 13 through 17 right there okay my apologies whole 11 par five 1,000 ft OB on both sides probably your widest Landing zone is the t-shot so you’re really going to need to get that one in bounds and then things get a little more

Complicated I think most of the guys in this group are thinking Eagle three so they’re going to be trying to go with a big backhand second trying to work it back to the left get close to this elevated pin if you want to play for the

Birdie The Landing zones can be a little bit small you have a few options how to do that see what nichas and nichas after birdie in the first seven holes goes par on eight and nine gets the birdie on 10 and he’s smacked this one this is long

That’s the play if you want to put yourself in position for the eagle ride that right side OB line all the way down there with a back hand get as much distance as you can try to get as close to this bunker as you as humanly possible this is right inside 500 feet

From back here great turn this should come in pretty soft and that will be just inside the circle perfectly played thus far for NLOS this for eagle and it’s in he is now 10 under through 11 holes yeah when you make a little mistake take a par Eagles what’ll

Cure it you know getting back to that perfect Pace Cory this is wide right but this has enough stability I think he’s going to be just fine man he just ripped on that didn’t he a lot of trust I got a little backstory for how Jake

Wolf got his Eagle I I heard this too big forehand nearly to that bunker which is in itself just ridiculous and then just inside 500t Tomahawk to inside the circle I knew a tomahawk was involved Tom a big shot there for Anthony but yeah just over 450 ft minimum for the

Tomahawk into the green the story I heard was two tomahawks oh interesting CU I mean the guy is making some legendary stor so well either way it was uh a cooler way to do it than two backhands if you ask me this needs to get Heering starting

Now it’s got a lot of distance it is wide and it’s just not going to come back in time that’s going to be early out of bounds as well it’s going to be a Scramble for the par at this point needs to slow down this is a type of mistake that can

Really manufacture into something you can’t come back from well yeah and the best he can really do from back there is just put himself basically where he was trying to land his Drive yeah so it’s going to be a long shot to try to save the up and down

Bogy oh man man that’s disappointing trying to play position it is a really hard thing to do to land in that second bubble it almost entices you to go for the eagle and as if we didn’t know Anthony was going to go for the eagle regardless of where his glasses go

Flying how high this is wow it’s just so easy when you’ve got that much distance there’s only one play available that’s nuke OS most stable one you could ever imagine from 500 this is pretty heavy on the left it is going to skip out of bounds have a little putt for birdie

Though I like this yeah good height good width and inside the circle you’ll have that for the par mared with a chance to save his par get this nice and close and he does that should be a manageable putt yeah for Eagle yes fourth down in two rounds

On whole 11 for Anthony one of 13 Eagles wow that’s a lot on the day and what a par save and if Cory doesn’t make his putt then Gavin’s actually going to get a stroke on him even after Cory’s Drive was remarkable and they end up getting the same

Score but dis golf is funny that way and a par for mared are are do you guys think we’re at a place where this hole could be considered a par for or is it no I hope not a I think 1,000 ft is just a little

Too far yeah but I think it could be longer could I think it could easily be 100 ft longer and still exist fine as a par five maybe even 200 ft longer to be honest with you sure I’m a little skeptical about this whole thousand foot

Mark on the dot yeah it is a convenient distance it is a very convenient distance mhm you’re not tricking anybody hold 12 375 I do believe that double Mando not a real big deal throw it anywhere in here or wider skip it up this hill with your most stable fast

Driver probably or Fairway driver for these guys and see if you can make the putt I have seen a lot of people kind of pull it to the right and find that out of bounds so that’s the one mistake you cannot do this looks great to me you

Want to hit that hill with a little pace and just check up let it absorb all the speed of your disc Anthony does that one as well as you can I’m not sure about the height a little too much Hiser as well it’s going to be skipping away it stays near the

Edge of the circle though yeah the height it’s hard to hit the hill with that height you know you’re going to fly it you’re going to end up to the left otherwise great line just lower probably parked this needs to hurry pulled right oh no with this straight skip

Doesn’t quite get the Hiser skip he was hoping for I really like his form once he gets that loaded up yeah pretty smooth little move he has right there great shot for Gavin sit that’ll be a bogey it’s kind of a scary putt for Cory looks deep it’s not that scary

Goodness what a putt does look deep and you can see the wind’s kind of picking up on them right there I didn’t see that a lot out there that is a solid uphill putt when you’re going up a hill into a headwind and the the ground kind of

Slopes away from the basket on the other side you can find yourself at the back edge of the circle in the other side if you don’t hit solid chains and it requires a very firm effort to get it all the way up to get the height right

So great putt for Corey will be a bogey for Andrew and birdies for the other Three hopefully 13 Par 3 415 ft over the OB River if you don’t cross you go to the foo pad I don’t expect we’re going to see that today unless it’s courtesy of this tree right here some of those overhanging branches could slow down even a big arm thrower if they try to

Play it a little bit too inside you just want to throw something high with little stall Spike Heiser for these guys maybe even see if nichlas can show us the proper line it’s going to be like a little buttery flip up wide that skips

To I would say 22 ft what do you guys think it’s going to be about that isn’t it I’d say a little closer than that nichas right now is nearly perfect he is going to get to 12 under through 13 I mean he has an opportunity to put down

The round of his life right now and that is fighting with those High limbs that you’re talking about Nate I think that that crossed up there in in Bow but Matt Orin will have a long putt to try to save the par Calvin this is also playing with

Those High limbs gets under him just in time and that’s the result if you do play that inside line oh and Matt did not cross so here is that fpo pad see if he can save bogey that’s high as well but he will be able to save the bogey good putt

Wow it’s a lot of birds if he can make this one what a day turns out he’s really good at the dis golf business stuff what is that not I don’t understand why a Flex Shot here for Anthony this is out of bounds in the golf green I cannot figure that one

Out yeah you would think just power Fairway driver power mid-range if you what happened in practice to take him away from theer line that you’re seeing Cory throw I think maybe those limbs are just terrifying you get a little bit of anheiser you you are really controlling

The height sure you know sure that’s all I could think of that golf Green’s just waiting for it though I mean I’m sure he expected it to heer faster this is messing with the tree if this gets through this is mostly luck go in okay that is just incredibly lucky to

Even cross up there that was a very errant shot for Gavin and he’s going to have a putt inside the circle to save the par this has got to get up I think I think this is fine over yeah yep it’s perfect but that’s scary

Yeah it’s scary but in the end it’s near bull’s eye but yeah it’s you’d like it to be two feet higher where there’s no question about it okay so it’s not it crossed that’s what I was that Drop Zones only if you do not cross AB will be taking an unnecessary bogey

In my opinion but Cory’s off a little bit with that one he’s been struggling it looks like on the green he’s made a lot of good putts but it doesn’t look like he’s been in real control of the putter sure a lot of different misses right left low low

High yeah that surprising airball on the par five I think was frustrating for him Gavin with an incredibly early release on the drive gets lucky gets through the limbs goes out of bounds by the green putt incredibly early release low left side in the basket get himself apart that’s living

Right they can’t all be Beauties that’s for sure yeah no not quite I’ve got myself a number of ugly duckling pars out there I wish I had an ugly duckling par on whole 13 I had ugly ducking to early like gav not even close found myself a little

Birdie this one’s a tricky one I as short as a 545t par 4 is this one just requires a very perfect placed t-shot and then from there it’s doesn’t seem that far to this green but there is out of bounds on the right side there is a bunker right at

The pin up by the green and early off the te if you kick left you will find out of bounds and be in a bad spot off the T um didn’t quite pick a gap and because it didn’t kick anywhere I think he’s going to have a chance to get

Out the shoot and two with not much in the way Cory’s been throwing this shot very well catches The Last Guardian and one thing when I see backhand players when they get up next to one of those trees it’s like the worst case scenario oh and Gavin I don’t think that he

Going shooting for that left of that initial tree line but sometimes it’s better to miss by 2 feet than 2 in and I do think that this is the line that AB was going for that is an awesome t- shot spotter agrees and this is well in mared’s range

And it’s going to be fine yeah it is good kick just stops there at the Fairway Edge probably 220 230 to the pin from there oh very similar from Cory unfortunately does not kick left I think you could just barely see the OB creep into play on that left

Side love the look of this one though just get down before the bunker oh yeah hit the Koozie touch a class little sex and Firebird got to love it he’s gone with that disc quite a few times today do you know what year that is is that the April no that’s the 2020

2020 I do believe you this man knows his sex and Fire brds I don’t like this at all yeah this got way away from Ab weird from such a perfect spot yeah that’s that was a surprise just overplayed it and a good approach from Corey a short putt for

Par imagine we’ll see a similar thing but with a forehand and here from mared this is a little early on the release but it doesn’t really matter that thing is concaved holy moly tough lie down here Anthony did you see that disc I sure did Anthony spinner oh kidding me from

50 and no body movement that’s just all arm all wrist how do you I mean that’s Fat Tony showing you something that is Fat Tony doing Fat Tony things oh my gosh what a putt just and it looked like he was enveloped with Briar as well like he could barely

Even get out of his stance didn’t look great look at this disc though do you think he could hold more guacamole on the top part of the disc or the bottom part of the disc top okay a good birdie for Gavin and let’s get another Chase carard check in here

This time Mato who’s gone backwards in the last two holes and looks like he’s trying to get things moving in the right direction get down oh good dig wow he’ll have an opportunity to do so from 37 Feet watch his jump hilarious every time I not what I thought you were

Going to say it’s like he’s doing this like little hop thing it’s absolutely hilarious to me it is a froggy hop for sure he getting everything he can possibly muster into that 38 footer here’s what I say I say we move the circle back to 45 ft and we say go ahead

And jump if you want to throw while your feet are off the ground who cares from 45 ft that look so ridiculous I don’t want to see the running start flying who’s going to do that that’s what from 45 ft we’re going to have long jumpers that are like Jake

Wolves Olympic tomahawking flying tomahawks yeah you might that yeah I don’t I don’t know that I want that I just I’m I’m tired of seeing pictures of people’s feet who are two inches off the ground oh they’re cheating it’s like there’s no way we can ever call that

Just allow people to jump putut with their feet off the ground I don’t care I think we just need to appreciate maro’s hop yeah while we got it it goes in a lot when he uses that Gavin a good drive just a little short of the

Pin and look at this thing late turning In very good also a little short but in terms of difficulty it’ll be the easier of the last two putsy had it’s going to be short I think you’re right yeah it’s still in C1 area but you really got to push those two trees that come into play on that left side if

You’re throwing the forehand if you want to get close this just needs to sit I was about to say that looks like the best one but it did have a lot of that speed coming into the green I think this one gets away from you quick if you

Do happen to clear that hill just barely the OB line is waiting for you and he knew it right out of his hand Gavin sticks it for it’s a good putt right there is third birdie in the last four tied for fourth he’s playing well mhm he’s minimizing his mistakes yeah sure

But his mistakes are small and he’s going on enough runs to stay with everyone else yeah what a great drive from Cory it’s a very difficult backhand out of that um tight tunnel there just you you really want to throw a flex shot but it doesn’t

Allow you to so you have to throw the slightest late flip out the hand oh little Joey buckets check in here on 17 look at that little move he puts on I mean that gosh I’m surprised there’s enough height there I feel like I’ve seen some lower ones get hit by trees

But a perfect line so good P the basket that’s a great birdie look what he’s doing on this back nine guys he’s birding and that’s after a boogi on the hold that our league cards about to play which is a pretty bad bogey honestly he’s four back of the lead set by

Nicholas antila who is 12 through 15 probably got caught messing around with these sand traps up here that’s I think the way you would make bogey is if you just found that left sand trap you now you got a C2 look to save it I’m going to guess

Cage just yeah sure I agree I think you’re right I I agree put a good run on it you know it wasn’t like went down you know he went down swinging no doubt he put a good run on it everybody thought it had a chance cage we’re going to see Nicholas antila

What does he have for the forehand keeping this one low just a tiny bit of flip up which is how you really want to get the distance here on this hole and he makes that look so easy man so efficient with his body size to

Get all the power you need on this the 375 is tricky on this one because it forces you into a straight shot and you have to intentionally pull it a little bit early oh please tell me we’re going to get a mato jumper oh oh absolutely he is high

Flying Bo oh that wasn’t as good he didn’t need it the result was as good I mean the Hop though we could just attach some silly video game boing sounds to it that would make it even more entertaining for me you know what’s entertaining 20 under par for Nicholas

That’s very good I like this line a lot just very early to those trees on the right side initially out of the Gap yeah yeah it little short lot left on there but he’s putting good ab’s got so much power he can go high and straight out the Gap and still

Get there no not go in oh wow very short shorter than I would have thought well he actually got negative movement off the ground he keeps that a little bit lower he can use the ground play see if Cory does that this is looking to be a sand

Risk yeah that is heading for a Sandy Landing bonky areed high and short yeah I just don’t know coming out of there cuz sometimes Maru just absolutely rips mhm and it’s just like oh that was 450 and that time it was short Cory from 60 and that is very similar to what we

Just saw from Joey buckets just a moment go Bo great putt I don’t see a chocolate chip cookie in the ground but if there was one he’d be taken a bite out of it it’s the face of a man who’s made more than he can count he just casual walk

Up no undue celebration for a little 40f footer who cares and Gavin just a little bit low I think he liked it out of his hand and just kind of dropped I remember whining about a Miss I had one time as AB lines this is off to the right that’s the first

Really bad putt we’ve seen from him from that distance in a while but Ron conver shot out one of the best quotes I’ve ever heard he told yes this is great he told me young man I’ve had more spit outs than you’ve made putts that’s my favorite quote and he’s 100%

Right great putter from Oklahoma he’s been every round he’s played looks like he’s going on a safari for birdies I think he and he’s finding a bunch he was thousand rated all the way through his 60s or into his 60 I also think that he

Is the oldest player ever to win a pro a tier yes allow me a quick fact check if anyone had more spit outs than Paul yuliar has made putts it’s wrong convers well no you’re you slow your putt down you’re getting rid of your discs like you’re going to an insane asylum if

You’re just like well that’s my 15,000 spit out like I think it’s maybe time for a new hobby couple things he is from Oklahoma it’s really windy yeah sure and I haven’t made that many puds probably in my so at that time perhaps maybe at

That time oh boy help oh what a break for marwe that yeah you love that that’s in bounds wow and not only is it in bounds but it gets up the Fairway he probably cut half the distance it I mean that was out of bounds immediately this is in

Danger does that no okay it need got away with it but that found an incredibly small hole and was heading for the promised land as well if it gets past that last cut Branch this is going to bury in circle two didn’t quite get back to its Edge

That’s what you’re looking for on this hole if you can get it to work back test the ceiling as much as possible and get that little run out that it’s the high stuff that gets you on this hole needs to sit okay it’s far enough that it’s fine

Yeah and the guacamole approach disc comes out once again man look at that thing yeah it that one comes up a lot shorter than Andrew would have liked look like some good touch on that I liked I like the follow through looked like good timing there from gin looking

Sharp this week here in Austin during the South by Southwest Festival that’s running concurrently Austin is a town that loves themselves some mustaches Gavin fits the part AB just a little short and right with his birdie bid and Corey looking to make up for the bogey on 16 unfortunately the frustration is

Starting to set in good butter that guy you know marwi has missed a few from just outside the circle but his c1x putting statistics are still intact they’re still intact 100% has he missed one in the circle if he did it’s not many of them no I don’t

Think he I think he has no the circle’s very short for Mar we I don’t think he’s had a lot right at circle’s Edge just inside too he he just hasn’t had an opportunity to really put him y till about 25 five Footers let’s take another look here at Joseph

Anderson Joey buckets can he get away with it oh not only does he get away with it that is in the prime spot what a kiss he’s going backand from here going to have to burn it from left to right through this Gap that’s what he’s done very very good very good very

Good sir hey good sir just a very unassuming character and he just gets it done man just gets it done what a round gets the 16 Under so was a nine under round for Joseph Anderson Nicholas anula currently leading the event through 17 holes as we get to Ho 18 what are these guys going to try to do here Nate gosh I think pushing it straight As far as you can right up into

This sunny area would be fantastic it’s a par 4 685 early OB on the left Obi on the right the whole way you I think backhand flip up probably I ideal shot and then either that turnover or a forehand on the second let’s see what Nika can do on the

Final hole after just an incredible day one bogey blemish whoa whoa and where is this okay kick wave right and ites out of bounds wow uh yeah it yeah just needs to stay out of the woods now in practice when we first got here in Tuesday that was

Marked out of bounds they actually realized that that was a little bit overly punitive and they moved it about 30 to 40 ft left of that spot there’s a beauty from Calvin heimberg past that tree in the middle of the Fairway right there anything up there is just insanely good this is just

Play for for bogey now he is way out of position oh yeah he’s he’s just going to try to Heiser in front of the mandatory tree oh and goes way out wide this is a scary play but I don’t like that he does it pretty well

But he’s still got his work cut out for him to save the bogey risky play for sure oh look at this little flex play from mtio oh great shot from in the woods gives him a chance where what line is this okay wide interesting oh doesn’t work for

Him well he’s not throwing any sidearms remember that that’s true that’s yep handcuffed by that cuz there’s just times like that where you want to be throwing that little 280t forehand does he does he no way what a finish wow 80f footer that’s all fun but I want to see The

Hop M there is a little baby hop what a bird beautiful p and way to bounce back after the bogey double bogey stretch for Mio ends up pulling it together a solid finish for him and nichas anula two Bogies in the last five holes and he is still right

There in the mix in the lead at the moment that’s probably friendly I think that was going to swing right out of bounds AB currently tied for fifth place uhoh I think he needed a birdie here to get potentially on the league card I don’t think he’s going to be

Leaving with a birdie fortunate to be safe right there and really fortunate when you can Ed that it’s a instant double penalty yes you can’t really Advance much and you’re out of bounds Z your third hurry oh it’s a decent looking shot but if just the fact that it never moved

Itself left never had a chance to even be in position for the birdie you have to be left side of this Fairway wow what a shot Andrew mared see what I mean then he does that and it just rips what a shot not only a long way from the pin

But through a tight Lane that’s awesome yeah can you think of any other players that start off with a close stance like Cory does explain that he doesn’t like have his body open his hips aren’t facing the target he starts off with his body 90 de

And he goes into it the whole way one person who teaches that as being very effective is Johnny McCrae oh yeah Johnny McCrae is another player who does that yeah that’s true decent kick there that cameraman is in scary spot oh my goodness that was a bold position I I

Didn’t don’t understand why Gavin felt comfortable throwing with that the guy right there on that line didn’t think he was going to mess up yeah I guess not it was a a really tough time for him to play at that aggressive to to think you can reach the green still it’s just such

A thin line and the kicks are so bad obviously hindsight easy to say oh what a par save Come on Anthony that is an amazing shot pitch out amazing par that is what he has really improved on the season his putting has been phenomenal Annie too yeah just to extend

It a little bit more that was great and Cory unable to get the birdie he’ll have that putt to remain in a tie for third place what a birdie Andrew mared now that could have been just inside the circle you’re in that one yeah sure that’s a beautiful

Putt I mean aside from Ab being in the woods maybe no one was in a worse spot to get the birdie than Andrew MH be a par for Corey and depending on how many players he is tied with at third place he may still be on our lead card going into Championship Sunday

And mared and Cory still tied at third place but they are tied with two players with better rounds so they will be on our Chase card and a brand new league card gburg course record 14 under defending Champion yeah and coming off a win last week obviously a

Proven winner Nicholas anela going for his very first win on the dis golf pro tour that’s the story for me two shot lead for nichas one round to go out here but only a three shot lead over a slw of other players it’s in Texas it’s the

Disc golf pro tour you know it’s going to be a tight finish it’s going to be an exciting round there could be some rain in the morning but it looks like the weather might hold off especially when we were thinking we were going to see some really nasty storms this weekend

It’s been pretty lucky considering what we could have had yeah I’m excited I mean tomorrow you look down that leaderboard and the scores that we saw today if it’s anything like we saw today they learned from the first round we’re seeing 14s 12s I’m going to tell you the

Average score is going to go lower tomorrow if it’s any near anywhere near the same conditions which means somebody could win from the third card going to take something incredible to get it done that is for sure we will bring the action to you come on back for final

Round action from the open at Austin [Applause]
