coasts of California our tour has arrived out west the Port Town of Stockton May differ from the bay but there’s no doubt the home of OTB reflects a California state of mind and underneath the sunshine lies our first test at West Swenson Park a bomber course requiring power and accuracy will we see a return to Victory from former Champions three time Champion Paige Pier or can those on the brink this year finally break out one thing is certain Victory this week will require only the best the 2024 OTB open Starts Now [Applause] good afternoon dis golf fans and welcome into Stockton California at Swenson Park disc golf course the 2024 OTB open presented by MVP dis Sports is underway and it’s the afternoon show Brian arhart n Perkins this Tournament Central Time to lead you into the no action that’s about to unfold this afternoon but first let’s quickly recap what went down in the foo division this morning quite a few players shooting really hot on this property what do you think yeah perfect day out here at Swinson I mean no humidity whatsoever when we woke up the wind was down you know it’s in high 60s low 70s when these these players were out there tossing and it was perfect scoring conditions and these are as good of numbers as we see all year on Foo we’re still a few Strokes behind paig Pierce’s 12 under par in this layout a couple of years ago but nine under was the number today by Holland Hanley she still doesn’t have an Elite Series but how many times Brian have we seen Holland at the top after round one probably double digit at this point in her career she probably has more Elite Series lead cards without an Elite Series win than anybody else in the field can she do it this week I think she can absolutely do it this week look at her scorecard she started out four for four got six 8 9 10 look at that front 10 hole stretch that’s that’s that’s just perfect disc golf right there yeah she got a couple Bogies in the back stretch but I think a lot of players are going to do that double Bogies are right around the corner on a lot of these holes if you’re not clean off the te if you misread the wind this is in that wind range where you’re not quite sure whether or not the wind’s going to fully affect your shot do you need to change discs in your bag uh so I feel like Holland did exactly what you needed to do today I don’t think you’re going to need to shoot a 12 under par at all this round so I feel like or this whole weekend I don’t think you have to shoot that number so I think she’s in a great spot can she continue this pace as the weekend moves on uh personally I think it’s time I think a lot of people are thinking it’s time but we did talk to her after her round today let’s take a listen to what she had to say all right joined here in the clubhouse Holland Hanley nine underpar effort on round number one how you feeling about it oh great I mean I was just chilling today they they started us off with like uh Superstition playing while we were teeing off on whole one and I was like feeling that and just kind of try to keep that all day they had the Stevie Wonder playing they had Superstition going when you were teeing off are you a superstitious player are you a superstitious athlete not superstitious but I’m a little bit stitious okay I’ll take that I’ll take that I mean you know some some little things like I definitely right now I I think my my red shirt is my lucky shirt so I saving that for for the last day and uh I I try to wear black on moving day like I got a couple little little things I do slightly above average dishes but Le let’s uh talk about the round a little bit how’s the course playing when there’s not much wind out there is it pretty attackable oh it’s very attackable um yeah really it’s just a few key spots where you need to really think about it before you get too aggressive and um if you if you’re going to make a mistake there is definitely a right and a wrong mistake to make um you don’t want to end up in the water short or OB early or anything like that um and then yeah that’s pretty much it 9 under par currently the best round of the day but you had two bogey out there talk about the Bogies and are they mistakes that you feel like you have to make adjustments for um not really the the first one was whole 12 I believe what was that part four where you got the the pawn shot as the second shot and honestly out of my hand I thought it was perfect and I came up just a couple feet short um so not too worried about that might just aim a little bit more to the right so I get kind of that fatter Landing Zone um and then the second one was just like a little bit of a brain fart missed a short putt um I only missed two short putts today so I’m not really too worried about it well Holland it was a great start and under power we’ll see you tomorrow hey above well I think uh I think Holland again did exactly what she needed to do and I love her mindset right now she’s doing just fine she knows what she needs to do to keep shooting good this weekend the out of bounds on 12 can get cleaned up and couple little micro adjustments here and there but she she’s in the right spot moving on C merch dropped an incredible first round eight underpar effort she got done second on the day they just absolutely flew through the round she said she was very grateful to have the second tea time of the day which I think is a great mindset you’re not playing with any backups you’re not going to have to worry about any of those pinch points on the course where two three card backups can sometimes present themselves they flew there was a four card difference between them and the card behind them so uh they were all in a good space but catch has played great today yeah I heard she played in a threesome today as well and you like playing with less people and and playing the course pretty quick Brian you feel like it it helps the the overall scores well if you’re towards the top playing in a threesome it’s awful you’re always catching the group in front of you but if there’s just one group ahead of you that’s just easy goinging all day that’s Best of Both Worlds really so uh I think the conditions were great for her to shoot the round she she did clean ate under par cat was in control today she said there were some putts that she not necessarily was proud of she feels like she can clean them up a little bit um four for seven from Circle one so almost 50% on the day uh got to clean that up she’s got to pick her sides of the green that’s the big thing with cat merch it’s not like she has this super direct Christen tar Style no wobble spin putt she has a very Pitch Putt oriented style and she has to be a little bit more choosy when it comes to where she puts her approaches yeah definitely has to be conscious of what side of the basket she’s landing on and today was the calmest of the three the wind kind of it doesn’t Peak until the late afternoon so for this n round we’re going to see it pick up towards that 15 to 20 mile per hour but for Saturday and for Sunday it’s going to Peak a little earlier and so the FBO is going to have to deal with a little bit more wind and I agree with you I think that merch’s putt when it’s calm and it’s in the woods it looks good but it is susceptible to being affected by the wind so we’re going to have to see how she’s able to dial in that Putt and a trend that we’re noticing Brian the finish here at Swinson is tough it looks like a lot of the scoring is done on those first like 12 13 holes what do you think it is about the finish that is just that much more difficult than the rest of the course 17 18 are funny there there’s certain positions on these holes where you get tempted to do something so silly and a lot of times you bite unless you’re very disciplined 17 I think is a perfect example that low ceiling kind of creates this really challenging t-shot that you have to throw fast on and clear as as much ground as you can otherwise you’re in that position where you’re like okay I know distance-wise I can get to the green but but should I actually try to challenge this and get up to the basket and a lot of times you make the wrong decision let’s fly this hole right now low ceiling got to bite off some distance what do you think here Nate I love this hole and Leonard used the oak trees that are here at Swinson to Perfection and you need at least 330 ideally you’d like to get something out there in that 360 range and if you’re too far left you’re going to have that ceiling that you were talking about on the approach and the prevailing wind direction here on 17 is ahead right to left so most of the time players are swinging and out over that water and having to trust that the wind isn’t going to flatten their disc out and cause them to throw their Force shot from you know 250 short and this bucket is only 15 maybe 18 ft from The Waters Edge right there this is playing as the fourth hardest hole but because of where it sits in the around this is one that we see a lot of people really struggle on I think the placement of the hole is very important because yes you want to go for those late heroics you want to go for the green and stick a birdie that can potentially take a stroke on the rest of the field and then a lot of players don’t necessarily accomplish that task so yes the finish here is is brutal and we’ll talk probably more about 18 as the weekend goes by because I put that in the same category Nate our perks picks are starting to look pretty good for our pick twos Holland hanley’s in first place and then Ella Hansen goes eight under par she’s tied for second place going into the second day of competition you watched Ella all day what are your thoughts well the distance is just so casual for Ella I mean right here she’s going seven speeed on a 360 foot hole a lot of players are throwing driver right there the distance is an advantage it’s not all that you need to score her approaches were on point and then the forehand look at the where where she’s delivering years past we’ve seen her nose up heer find the water right there she Parks the seventh here’s another forehand approach across the water on the ninth they look great after a boom and drive yet her forehand approaches and then these butts right here the 20 foot looks she went on to cash that one here’s another great forand approach another water carry another one here on 12 and that’s money as well goes on to make that 20-footer there it is Nate we’ve watched her for years now mess up a lot of those forehands and say okay she played amazing but then you look back at where The Strokes were bled a lot of times it’s on that forehand side and her releases are beautiful when you watch her practice and now this forehand is a deadly weapon in the consistency is much better and I think this is why we’re seeing her on the up and up she’s had some fantastic finishes recently at MCO Champions Cup and that’s why I picked her in my pick two this week because she’s trending upward right now and I feel like it just takes a little extra push for her to get those few strokes and actually take down a victory this season I think she can do it another person that I think can still defend the title as Paige Pierce Nate Paige is starting to get some speed back and I think a lot of people are noticing I think she’s absolutely back I mean that she’s showing no signs of you know lack of distance right now Brian she she has plenty of speed it’s it’s how she’s choosing to harness the speed is the only thing I think that Paige is missing right now now I feel like sometimes she’s aggressive in the wrong spots and is almost just trying to do too much at times but this right here she found the stroke from Circle 2 I feel like this putt is what she’s been missing to kind of just get in that rhythm you’re not going to park every hole but this year she just hasn’t been making as many as years past look at this Fierce butter shot oh my gosh this is the type of shot that we’ve been missing from the foo division not a not a single other player in the field still throws that shot I mean Kristen tar doesn’t throw putter backhand approaches she’s leaning on the forehand that like 300 and in Fierce putter shot is something that Paige used for all five of her world titles we just haven’t really seen her dialed at that speed and and approach distance yet and today she showed me that she has it Brian I absolutely think paig Pierce is back and I think she could defend here we got a lot more to talk talk about we have the no coming up this afternoon we’re going to take a quick commercial break and then on the other side we’re going to see Eagle McMahon again Nate come [Music] on you want to know what a disc is going to feel like before you get it you have to check out OTB disc the first thing I’m looking for when I grab a new disc is the feel of the disc it’s got to be confidence instilled virtually in your hand tells you what the disc is going to feel like how heavy it’s going to be it’s everything you want to know before it shows up to your house it’s really really helpful in not only finding a disc that looks beautiful but is also exactly what you’re looking for it to feel like of course when you’re dealing with OTB you’re going to get only the best [Music] I’m David Wiggins and in 2016 I set the disc golf world distance record with a throw of 118 ft with our mount in the field measuring a max distance throw or on the course checking the elevation change for an upshot I rely on the eagle Seeker 360 to give me accurate distances it’s the only Rangefinder on the market that measures in feet yards and meters it’s USBC rechargeable and features a lithium ion battery visit Eagle secr 360.com to get yours today coming back everything just came flowing back in people are calling me the champ and and just talking about last year my first practice round uh coming up to 18 green was almost emotional for me and it just brought all that feeling back and just I mean a year ago I was speechless I still am how does it feel to be a dgpt champion it feels so good like uh yeah I have been short like time I have been like waiting for this kind of and uh yeah it feels good and there’s so much things that came with the win like the final spot in the dgbd Championships which was one one of my biggest goals this year and uh I kind of feel a bit empty to be honest to to and why is that I think it came so quick I didn’t even like I wasn’t sure if the win would qualify me there or anything like that and now I got got the information that it did so I kind of feel feel a bit bit empty and uh but uh still yeah super excited about it are you able to you know kind of hold on to you know the Rhythm and the routine that that led to good putting at DDO yeah um putting was really good that final round at DDO I wouldn’t even say was great the first two rounds but um I felt pretty good out at Vegas uh made most of my putts out there I actually for that final round at DDO I put a new I used a completely new putter for the bag I just need to change something up so um and those Putters are that one and the next new one I put in they’re they’re flying really good right now Nate let’s start out by talking about Emerson Keith you You’ known Emerson Keith for a very long time you guys are both Texas boys youve watch watched him grind weekend you know weekend after weekend after weekend in Texas and now full-time for however many years he just doesn’t lose that competitive spirit I mean he won last year and then comes into the season hasn’t been a great year but he’s still going out and playing leagues he’s playing Flex starts he’s he is all in what what can you tell us about Emerson Keith and and can the energy from last year’s win take him to the victory again I I honestly Brian am a little worried about the nerves from last year’s when affecting Emerson cuz I I feel like Emerson is obviously more of of of a people’s Champion he’s not some superhuman you know athlete with the S foot wingspan like we have in you know ab and and Ganon Burr I mean he’s a he’s a different kind of player like you said you use the word Grinder like he grinded that win out the the 23 under power it’s not like he played close to perfect for him he can definitely exceed the 30 under but he played out of body at that tournament and I’m slightly worried what the nerves are going to do but when we talk to him he he just seems like a veteran I know he’s young but he has his third kid on the way Brian I mean he’s he’s been a dad now for over three years and he’s been providing for his family with the game of disc golf for you know approaching eight years now so I’m impressed with what Emerson has been able to do in the adversity of of his you know long career now he’s been playing since you know a little bit past the Inception of the discov pro tour so do I think he can repeat here at Swinson I do but I also think that it would be as last year was one of the more historic oh yeah kind of Underdog Tales even though he’s defending champ he’s probably not even in the top 25 now as far as skill set goes what do you think Nate average finish this year has been 37th okay he’s 39th in the dgpt standings right now hasn’t been a great year for Emerson Keith but we think about what they were doing when they took the victory like Emerson Keith or parker wel last year at DDO it can happen but if it does happen this year what an unprecedented title defense that would be and I think there’s a lot of people rooting for him to take this down because like you said I don’t think he’s like this Larger than Life personality he’s Emerson he’s like going out and playing leagues he’s mingling with the locals he’s doing kind of the things that all the older touring Pros used to do just to get by and now I I feel like it’s awesome to see him still doing that a real member of the Disc Golf Community across the board but he’s playing to win this week Nate but he’s going up against some guys that are also really Allin and one of the guys we have to talk about that we talked a little bit about this morning is yes a Neiman and talk about Allin the man is over here going back to Europe and now coming back here after having a fantastic performance in Copenhagen getting his first dgpt win Nate we have more to talk about yes a uh I think there’s something in that interview that really stood out and I know that kind of sparked your interest well yeah he said that he almost felt empty and we’ve heard other athletes talk about that I mean you you you make this big sacrifice you leave Finland for six to eight weeks you come here and when you you find yourself you know outside cash two weeks in a row you know 3 weeks in a row you’re dealing with an injury you don’t even know if you can play you start to kind of give up and and be faced with is this really for me should I continue to pursue discov it’s not that easy when you have to come over the pond and and you’re away from your family for two months and then all of a sudden he finds himself in the winter Circle over in Copenhagen it doesn’t matter that the field the Americans weren’t there he won an Elite Series and it happened quicker than he expected it to he qualifies for the Tour Championship now he’s just it’s like what do I what do I do now I I accomplished my biggest goal of the year so it definitely it resonates with me what he’s saying about being empty and it also inspires me and likely others around the world to just continue pressing and and pushing for your dreams and here’s what impresses me he started out coming to uh the top of leaderboards in Finland because of his alls sidearm play style he had a backhand it’s a decent backhand but it’s not like Nicholas to a level of shot shaping competency sidearm was his bread and butter and then you come over here and it it’s really tough I mean our alls sidearm guy right now is Chandler Kramer who you know plays really well at some courses and kind of runs into a brick wall at other courses and you see it in the performances not having a high level backhand with high RPMs is tough especially when the wind picks up on these long courses like OTB this Swenson parkour so I love that he’s been able to come over here and get the Reps on the backhand and learn what he needs to do clearly he puts the work in look at his sidearm I mean to me it’s top five top 10 in the world right now um and I think he can put the work in to get the backhand there too and he said he’s excited for it and I think that’s the goal I think come over here and acclimate to this West Coast style style um I think he could do it I totally think he could do it but he’s got to go up against guys like Calvin heimberg Nate who last week at DDO final round looked absolutely Unstoppable like we remembered from the earliest uh parts of the 23 season talk about what you think about Calvin this week well I remember back at Texas States you and I were calling that and thinking that it was the end of everything for the rest of the field I I remember asking ifin golf was over if Calvin felt bad for the field because he he was winning by eight Strokes after two and and then all of a sudden we saw The Human Side of Calvin heinberg the rest of the season we saw him you know falter time and time again in pressure moments we saw him crumble in the majors and then last week two weeks ago rather at OTB pardon me DDO I’m with you guys Calvin found the putting stroke and found the late flipping drivers into the wind and again looked like there was nobody else in the field that can touch him and I think if he continues to find that Rhythm that routine that allows him those Deep Circle one shallow Circle two makes when there’s a little bit of wind out there I don’t think this course is safe today Brian I think nine under par right now is a score to beat that’s coming in 1057 Cole shot that in 12 I think power out here on a course where scratch scoring average was considered to be plus two so that would just be something special but Calvin is a generational Talent have we seen another Calvin heimberg are we seeing one in the junior ranks right now that’s playing like him like I know a ton of young players were playing like Paul MC Beth when they were coming up but you just don’t see anyone play the game like Calvin it’s it’s such a beautiful thing to watch uh when he plays the game I think most specifically whole 15 at Nokia over overseas in Europe for the European open 500 plus foot downhill Park three this man is grabbing an eagle out of his bag a seven-speed fairway driver and throwing it on a frozen rope down to the basket I mean nobody else is even thinking about doing that and he does it with such ease and now that he’s starting to feel a little bit better on the forehand side he says he actually likes the late flipping turnovers that he kind of had to start learning because of the forehand being uh off limits and now he’s going to keep leaning on them as long as he can and he says the forehands there doesn’t have to use the forehand so I think he might be in a little bit better spot than he was before giving that he makes a full recovery Nate last thing we got to talk about speaking of players coming back from an injury Eagle McMahon is back yes Eagle McMahon is playing at open at an open course we get to see feedback we actually get to see his discs fly yep uh it was kind of frustrating as a spectator to watch him go out to Northwoods because his timing is clearly going to be off he’s still recovering he’s learning a new bag we want to see these new discs are flying and if you hit a tree halfway up the Fairway we don’t get to see how they fly so what do you think about his chances this week but also what do you think this means for his career in this season you know I think Eagle’s the the type of guy that we’ve learned a lot from mentally like he he wasn’t shaken up by this I I obviously think that he found himself in a tough way not able to have his timing but and obviously the fans didn’t didn’t cut him cut him one cut him some slack on last weekend they were harsh on him Brian but what you’re talking about with the feedback is being able to see how this new plastic is flying and I think Eagle’s probably forgotten all about what happened at Northwoods and honestly he probably didn’t even have expectations for himself at that tournament today and this weekend I feel like he probably is coming into this tournament in the proper mindset to be able to throw he’s going to forget all about those those Shanks and the numbers I think the fans at home they were too zoomed in on hey he shot 10 overpar he going win the tournament that doesn’t matter if you shoot 12 overpar when you’re just trying to get back in it in into the tournament you know kind of scene and get your timing right with you know a bit of pressure with the cameras and at a certain point when you’re that far over par you’re just going out there and you’re trying to enjoy it I saw him throwing some some rollers I saw him ring when he didn’t really need to so we can’t zoom in on the numbers and and and try and cut him down and say hey he’s not he’s not coming back Eagle McMahon could potentially just blank out this whole course I I don’t know if you remember but he shot the 13 under par here at Swinson the first year we had it uh and ended up you know winning the tournament so eagle has obviously everything that it takes and now he’s playing at an MVP event and we’re going to see that plastic get ripped on today we might a 700t roller like I can’t wait to see how he’s putting with the Nomad so as a fan I just can’t wait to see the bird fly again well we’re going to get to see him throw some really spectacular shots out here and especially for the Power Players there’s some holes that allow you to do some pretty incredible things let’s talk about hole N9 let’s actually fly hole n and talk about this really special hole again golf course but they use the trees in a really creative way talk about this shot yeah where we’re sitting under these coastal redwoods right here on the teapad and this is one of the t-shot Brian that if you mess this up short and if you mess this up right you’re potentially adding two strokes to your score right here you’ve got to feed it inside this next eucalyptus you need at least 430 to clear that OB line right there you really need 460 if you want to land in the center of the Fairway here and then the second shot here is asking you to throw 330 to carry that water you’ve got some reads on the right that you need to get the disc up and over the wind right now today is a left to right headwind that kind of keeps the disc from swinging back in well I talked to Leonard Muse he said these reads in the right side are no longer going to get cut he’s going to let them grow as high as they possibly can to get players to think a little bit more before they throw their second shot over the water I Love Hole nine this is my favorite hole in the course playing is the seventh hardest today just a little bit over par man so much to talk about this weekend a really special place here in Stockton let’s take a look at some hot rounds of the day and get you down to the dgn booth for another round here Cole ralin 9 under power effort you said the nine is not going to stand what do you think I don’t think it’s safe right there you know Isaac Robinson hoping to catch his brother by the end of the day we saw Paul McBeth go three for three I think honestly Cole might be on the Chase card after these guys come through there Brian I’m telling you steak dinner somebody goes 30 to 33 I would be so blown a way to see that I’ll take a medium rare riy well let’s let’s just wait to see how round one goes for the rest of the no division wrapping things up here for Tournament Central Brian aart and N Perkins we’re going to set it down there see you [Music] behold the Eagles Crossing disc golf course a sanctuary where the ordinary transforms into the extraordinary as each dis takes flight Destiny intertwines with the

opening up the cannon it’s just pouring out yeah it seems to really unlock the new AV this year and it’s been just incredible to watch just clutch butting this year is been that was the missing component to his victories and it has been there he’s found something he’s unlocked some kind of code you know that freed his mind and let his body just do the thing and it’s been a lot a lot of fun

bad man not bad at all getting three wins through his first five events I think it was that’s insane man yeah and Burr has not missed the top 10 at all took second last year Pho you like his game for this course man like like his game for pretty much every course that he shows up to he’s one of those guys that just figures it out you know may not really suit his game but he usually finds a way to navigate and execute to a high level usually making up some ground on the putting that’s really where he separates from Anthony Barella if anywhere within the game yeah yeah that’s definitely true and MC Beth to start six for six back in his home state of California trying to get some feels and Stockton six for six doing Pablo proud wow wow that’s don’t Unleash the Beast Man never see that guy

Northern California see if his game is on fire hoping this drags back in a hurry looks like you ripped it over a bit too much team gentlemen good luck have fun in circle two but Raven is dangerous in circle two oh they make their way down the Fairway MC Beth T of s that’s an interesting swing from Paul F did you see that yeah that’s going to be a yeah down there on the ground is J he’s with our man Nate Perkins take it away are you rocking the modified F grip today no I’m I have changed to the power now and uh I think this is a great event to try to learn it and lean on it more so yeah new creep new things and how much of the the backand are we going to see versus your distance forehand out here at Swinson I think a lot more I think I throw backand on nine or 10 holes and some rollos so

that whole want’s a pretty big bomb to start your day F you know 450 MC Beth to go seven for seven will need a circle two make to do so six for Seven’s still pretty good I’m sure he’d like that put back oh yeah right online just righted up short look at Raven Nome Fairway maybe Circle two looks like he’s inside Circle too oh he’s 55 ft oh right on the edge there goes to that steppers just didn’t look connected there Yesa a couple feet closer perhaps a bit of jet lag on the putters hustled back to the states after the big win in Copenhagen not quite the putt he was looking for to start off still early Burr in circle two pretty look [Applause] icean The Man known for it does his job right there G Burr trains it put like that early to watch out that’s what y was hoping for you get one of those early mop putts from out there in circle two you start feeling a little Invincible it’s kind of big time isn’t it one of those things man confidence and momentum are such a big thing on a tournament like this especially putting it’s so mental yeah and the wind starting to pick up this afternoon it was rather calm this morning not much of a breeze at all you see the trees are jumping around out there now you’re right Conrad went long left just a little bit coming back for birdie Conrad offt Target with his bid as well so Burr grabs a stroke on the card jumping ahead eight for MC Beth Par Four we will show you that second shot on the other side of this break we’ll be back in just a [Music] few MVP and OTB partnered up again for a huge run of exclusive and awesome disc to

[Music] laon the OTB open is presented by MVP disc Sports the Leading Edge in disc golf [Music] jumping from a fox to a beast MC Beth throwing two on eight I sure did feel that coming there Ian sets up great for the roller that’s really wide right looked like it yeah like that Landing off the ground really affected the angle maybe caught a little hole or some soft dirt or something yeah bur now on the T of two that’s going to be the challenge today fighting against these Crosswinds with these low canopies saw it a bunch in the foo earlier I feel like it’s a little easier to battle with a Heiser flip than a force over Flex if it depends on it just depends on which direction the wind’s blowing yeah Hiser flips are really tough to do when that Crossing wind going the opposite direction MH got to be so pure with it so smooth Conrad oh a little too high up in the window for Conrad makes contact drop straight down it’s a long ways to have a look at a birdie 3 when you hit early like that yeah it’s near impossible after that drive maybe a miraculous roller if anything Neiman in unleashes a low laser along the left side should be skipping right back towards the middle I think it caught a tree oh no yeah I’m pretty sure was looking really nice out there it was let’s take a look though at your Copenhagen open Champion see how we got it done shots like this I’d imagin inan little tasty sidearm into the green under the Koozie even yes sir nice Circle two Banger there going back to the sidearm again just weaving him he’s got a great flip up 4an game that was tasty it was tap in and call it a win two strokes Young Gun and Nicolas Conrad second keeps it in the air playing for par yep ooh that ain’t going to hurt him too much another 40 50 ft doesn’t change much on the approach there look down at switon Park from our flight Factory drone if you’re in the area come check it out this is a great tournament to watch there’s sight lines all over the course there’s no low brush you know oh it’s it’s a pretty nice walk out there yeah it’s really nice tons of spectator stuff yes I throw in two there’s Obie left that just gets back in Pho wow I don’t want to miss your first Putt and then throw OB on your second shot fortunate there to be safe MH get that up and down for a par you see that that gold spectator area right by ones t isn’t that amazing Pho that’s wonderful it’s so cool to see what they’ve done here at the OTB open over the years shouts to Sean Jack wife Elena for setting up that awesome uh gold spectator area the super Lounge yeah it is a super Lounge man you’re like you’re like 10et from people T off on one that’s epic that’s the coolest great idea Raven and his second for over sidearm along the left side looking to get some ground play going to come up a bit short these long par fors f with these low ceilings it’s tough you got to have a lot of speed and velocity not just speed but you know everybody’s throwing it about as hard as they can but they don’t all have the same velocity on them no give me that guy’s arm for some velocity right there doubt about it Eagle McMahon you will see your future card take the te after this

Pilot Point Texas Emerson Keith [Applause] how will things go for the defending Champion here Emerson Keith pretty good Pho catching one heck of a ride out of that Glide slides inside Circle one and just off of Bullseye has what a drive there from Emerson Keef 25 long Alabama Matt Oram hello yeah he’s excited to be here pH no early nerves from the defending no nice and wide looking for a skip doesn’t quite get it gets to Circle two gobbled up by the thick grass there’s some spots out here you got to be aware of that some spots get pretty quick and some do not Eagle McMahon nice to see him back on tour absolutely one angle heer from make man 30 ft in the air that also incredible spiking Hyer there from Eagle McMahon Circle Edge look and completing this group from Scottdale Arizona 474t opening hole Spiker he’s a little different by though so is this guy so is this guy he could follow he could bite off that line hop on those Vapor Trails absolutely Bella into the circle nien have fun play well oh they make their way down the Fairway jumping ahead to bur and is third on hold two basic disc golf there for Ganon Burr a little Chip Shot on nine McBeth carrying the OB with a t-shot such a great hole it’s a good one makes you think a little makes you throw some two good shots third shot for Robinson on 18 and he will have that left for par let’s check out pho’s philosophy you brought to you by our friends at blacking disc.com the premium disc golf store there are so many things you could say at a tournament like this how was really scrambling to think of like three things then they all feel kind of cliche I mean you know this is a long course so you’re going to have to throw the discard bring your long game probably a few rollers here sprinkled in will probably really pay off if you can execute more than likely you’re going to need to make a few bonus putts from Circle we saw earlier this morning with the ladies that was kind of what started to separate people were making some of those big circle two putts and I feel the same thing will happen on the men side maintain confidence and consistency is going to be key especially with being such a long day A Long Walk got to keep that confidence up the best you can try to stay consistent keep those bogeys away play smart the par putt for Robinson on 18 seven down but we’ll head to six hopefully it’s six yeah it stayed in bounds wow rarely see that out of Mr Robinson huh airball huh inside the circle yeah just didn’t touch a thing back to one for orm and his birdie putt just off the mark on the right side there for Matt orm jumping spin putt doesn’t touch a thing McMahon a little bit closer for his birdie bed smooth as ever Eagle McMahon dead in the middle of the basket one of the world’s best Putters voo right there he still got it man little break but still looks like Eagle I don’t think he’s just going to disappear off the face of the Earth you know that game is locked in mentally yeah you knows what to do once his body’s back in the right place you know he’s going to be dangerous again perfectly put pho Keith for two looking to start his defense well one heck of a line Emerson through low laser beam hardly leaked off the line till it started running out of speed just a little strong low and left for Keith on that birdie bid that’s an opportunity missed Bella no maybe that’ll wake him up Pho you can only have one or two of those man you know that it’s got to be that’s it you know in your mind mentally I I cannot allow myself to miss like that anymore see if Anthony berill can turn turn it around here early on Keith for par early bogey bird doy even too those feel a little worse in my mind yeah three puts are rough man yeah especially after a fantastic drive like that that was a statement off the te to start the card wow how fast things can turn huh it is wild Orum to clean up is par oh oh my no what is up with these oh Eagle did his job at least but that’s that’s one for four in this Future car Department Bella in for par followed by two Bogies orm and Keith while they wake their waited two we’re going to jump ahead at nine check on Paul MC Beth that’s a birdie putt easy work nice approach on hole three Burr has a birdie putt oh sneaky sneaky Iceman out there in circle two gosh slow walk that one in perfect nothing wrong with making them low when you’re out there 50 60 ft not a bad place to you know to go in talk about this whole twoo It’s Tricky it is absolutely tricky you got this low tunnel these trees maybe got a 13 14t canopy up there but man it’s so easy with those Crossing winds for the disc to lift especially if you throw something has a stable Edge you see a lot of guys trying to go something somewhat neutral push it out there 380 400 somewhere off to the left side really opens things up if you can finish in the middle that’s really nice but you definitely don’t want to go right especially on the second shot there’s is natural OB over there to the right not a lot to work with can clearly see the OB line along the left side to navigate baskets perched up under the under the Oaks back there nice and pretty like great hole it is really yeah that OB left you got the natural OB on the right this is perfect could go roller off the tea if you can control it you know it’s not one you want to get wild with that’s for sure but if it’s one of those shots you got locked in this could be a good place for it McMahon with the box after the birdie on one first available for that K OB man it really did didn’t it that went directly out of bounds that’s going to be a big number Pho little bit yany there from Eagle mcmah best you can do is save bogey you imagine right that kind of feels like it doesn’t it Bella inches off the ground for barela big flare skip set him up with a nice mid 300 shot in emers and Keith like I saw Ari back there on the bag Pho another sharp drive from Emerson [Applause] yeah sure still shaking off the offensive whole one’s Green Man definitely deflating the three at the first hole and all those you know all hyped up all the adrenaline flowing and walk out of there with a bogey he’ll bounce back yeah no doubt Matt orm oh no also finding first available Rocky start for all here it is looking a little off on our future card so far they’ll get it cooking eventually let’s Jump Ahead to 10 MC Beth classic hole out here at Swenson Beth trying to wave this ever closer green flag but looks a bit shy hen I I’m I’m curious if that’s close enough for a putt you never know with these guys yeah right we saw scas make a 50F footer on that hole this morning man so cool she has no fear with the putter in her hand and she made three or four of those that one on seven was awesome she made one on 11 another 50-footer back to back Footers and MC Beth he is going to putt it Pho death putt Galore up and short for MC Beth can’t blame him yeah tough staring at that water McMahon and his third I don’t think that’ll change anything Pho other than making that throwing it in from 125 it’s not much of a difference there for Eagle just going to make his fourth a little longer but workable the other side of that tree is Matt orm throwing two though still has this Mando that shouldn’t be much of an issue he’s got great roller game kind of wouldn’t be surprised to see him drop one here plenty of room out there to the left maybe he’s just going to play smart golf here and just chop something down there as far as he can keep it safe get his power walk out of here eat the whole one bite at a time air shot it is for Matt orm it’s a really good one too beautiful nice full flight there for Matt orm checking out a live shot from our fight factory Jon and your Cana current conditions 81 degrees 10 milph perk how’s it feel on the ground has the wind picked up from this morning just about the same how we looking down there my man it was pretty calm for the foo round and the wind on the radar looks like it’s just about to Peak and looks like it’s going to be the calmest of the three only getting upwards of 15 mph and we’re really not going to see a lot of that on this front N9 so I I imagine the front’s going to be pretty right for scoring awesome thank you perk Emerson Keith and his second grabbing some range first probably what upper threes 400 F though I’d say he split the hole in half most likely look like he got a pretty nice full flight out of that sidearm yeah not completely lit on fire but definitely a nice forward push a little forward skip this will be tough IO a backhand with that ceiling it’s workable yep it’s workable maybe even from the shape of that it even look like potentially a roller we’ll see what Emon digs up here right oh just a standard and Heiser swing there from Emerson catches some foliage drops down inside Circle two that left for birdie hoping to erase the Boogie from one or throwing two on whole four he hit one of the early trees right father on the way out I am not 100% sure about that but he’s just dropped one heck of a roll here this is pretty special he’s going to have a great look on flat ground Barella is second attacking camera position must be long of pin Circle Edge okay it’s a good shot there from May another opportunity to score some solid Juice by my man Josh down there doing a little foot loose on mcmah so effortless that didn’t hurt it at all just off the bullseye there for Eagle mcmah did the best he could Pho didn’t he yeah that’s all he was going to get after that drive yeah MC Beth we now on the T of 11 par for water carry off the T and then optional water carry on your second what do you think he does [Applause] F that’s a tough one to answer I’ve seen some guys go biger out and around and take their chances I’ve seen guys play the roller into there I’ve seen guys with great sidearm games utilize that it’s really what you feel most comfortable with I don’t want to say what they should do cuz you know I can’t do what they can do so what I would do is a completely different story that is fair Pho that is fair the orm approach is lovely and that should work for par I again not bad after the t-shot finding first available is Matt wearing croakies are we not going to see the sunglasses fly off his face anymore he’s got yeah got a little thing back there let’s check out our scores a lot of action all over the course look yeah Paul MC Beth on a run yeah Adam hamus is Adam Ham on the same card they might be mhm how about that six for six oh ham who wow three of them no excuse me my bad my bad yeah still Calvin heberg yeah man you think about a lowline drive thrower that’s my guy and that’s what this course demands agreed Keith for birdie he’s not the only one that can do it he seems to be one of the better ones at it pal M Beth is another another good lowline dve thrower facts that many shots MC Beth doesn’t have that’s true come on now there you go Emerson Keith covering up that early three put big bomb 56 footer huge bounce back there we go there’s some pressure relief big time yeah Bella’s second one a little bit long coming back for birdie there’s the PT Pho y more of that please McMahon should produce Bogey and he goes back to even or a par let’s take one more look at this Emerson Keith puup f it was a monster clean up on aisle 2 Emerson Keith on [Music] it Edge is a nationally recognized 501c3 charitable organization what we do is we empower the teachers with complete programming along with the equipment and a standardized curriculum so you have a One-Stop shot for teachers and youth Educators that’s really what Edge is it makes everything simple for the teacher to get involved with this golf if we want disc golf to be recognized we need to introduce disc golf to the youth and if nothing else they’ve got a healthy game that they can enjoy with their families throughout the rest of their lives [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] do [Music] [Music] pound’s the best of the best it’s the quality the craftsmanship the vision for what a bag could be I don’t think anyone’s disputing that it’s the best made [Music] bag welcome back to the OTB open the tf3 ab not the longest of holes but it does require your full attention two mandatories out there one right off the te on the right Circle two out there on the left Arrow Corridor you got to Traverse here maybe tugs it on the inside side just a bit pays the price Keith ever since sneaks by on the right side oh somehow fights through and gets into Circle one how about that Ian that worked you’ll take it Orum it’s a tricky little shape here pho it is especially with the low ceiling that seems to be the elephant in the room at this tournament you know just everywhere you go you got to navigate these low tunnels arm keeps it too low he didn’t seem connected on that swing in his body posture was off birdie putt for Burr that will be a par got worked on that shot into the green caught the canopy of the tree face of the Hill rolled backwards in circle too I haven’t seen a forehand on this F though interesting let’s see how it works out here for man tasty soft one but not quite enough yank over to get it there gosh a couple feet higher had the idea MC Beth for birdie hold 11 green light go MC Beth short again did it stop rolling yeah I don’t think it went anywhere he was on the appropriate side it shouldn’t go anywhere from a front hit yeah going to get frustrating for MC Beth on a heater like that yeah I saw conro Riley on that card with Paul MC Beth Iron Hill huh yeah man that was that that’s where he did it think of the number of players you’ve got wins on tour over the last three or four seasons we’ve been doing this live show it’s been so cool to see so many new guys Step Into The Winner Circle forella second should be fine for par for a orm also throwing two cut swing over right into the bullseye McMahon does he get this a stab even he’s such a good putter from distance trying to throw it in there yeah nice little soft touch there from MCB just past the bullseye interesting and Keith the lone member of the card to sneak into the circle back to back birdies and get under par yeah up and in for Keith nice to see him shake off that early bogey backto back Birds confidence is up now let’s see if he can maintain McMahon for par AB also putting forar and one more one more of those from M or let’s take one more look at that putt from here defending Champion Emerson Keith trying to go back to back it’s not easy Pho I guess defending anyway y there it is hand ey putting that hand in the space where the eyes are looking last year right here in Stockton Keith took it down shots like this water crossing on the par three absolutely parked ring the wind out there Emerson Keith dropping in for the win on 18 that’s his first and only Elite Series right I believe it was he’s had some great finishes over the years put in some work over in Utah remember over at Ogden had some really good moments on tour but man to pick up a win with an Elite field like that out there that’s that’s huge heberg we have caughten up with last year’s final boss it’s like hole eight his second shot a little tickle there is a golf green short that looks like some Hazard end yeah that does first blemish of the day for heimberg whole 12 MC Beth that part three we just saw Emerson Keith Park in the Highlight package early cut over stable has the carry green flag for MC Beth looking to get to eight underpar nice shot and if you guys are a disc golf Network Pro subscriber you can watch the MC Beth effect it is a behind the scenes of pal MC Beth 2023 European open tour don’t miss the MC Beth effect episode one is coming to DGM Pro and JZ patreon Tuesday the 21st wait we change that Keith now on the T4 out of the Gap clean You Like It by I do actually I think that’s kind of smart get yourself out of the trouble early and open things up from there Bella will’ll take the hand line look like he’s got a similar concept just going to attack it a different way join Emerson Orum Mato lit the match on that one he did that thing was moving low laser beam that’s the shot you’ve been talking about so far and definitely keep things on the straight and narrow out of trouble o roller coming from McMahon that’s all the wind Ian wow that’s the wind blowing from the right just pushing on the plate of the disc give you a pretty good idea of which direction the wind’s blowing from from now sure thing’s blowing off their right side that thing was moving F yeah it was I guarantee that was over 80 Burr T of five smooth roller hopefully that landed on the appropriate angle that could carry a long way look like it just cut Pho that not flipd from the hazard on hole eight heimberg for par talk about a massive par save here trying to keep things clean heberg settle for bogy MC Beth for birdie all 12 probably the best angle to be putting from if you’re Paul MCB Beth parallel you know sideways instead of straight out the water does not take advantage though does not unfortunately a huge thanks to our friends that flight Factory providing the Drone coverage all year long head over to flightfactor disc.com and grab some merch speaking of Calvin heimberg they have Calvin heimberg gear there second shot for berill I think no I thought for a second he’d go roller here still might oh yeah big sky roller from Anthony BR that landed on a great angle good chuks by the spotter a still great though not bad not far off from where Ganon bur was moments ago similar distance different angle for par MC Beth I’m sure the frustrations are mounting for Paul McBeth not able to capitalize on these birdie opportunities and that’s like three birdie putts we’ve seen him miss the last 15 or so and 12 through 18 have been a tough stretch for the competitors to score on not too many guys really lighting it up on that section not to say that they’re haven’t been birdies by some competitors but you look at the stat sheet and seems like all the birdies come in the first 12 holes and then things slow down McMahon second I wouldn’t HTE a roller from here again we’ll see what he does just a huge air shot Pho no problem with getting past that OB green nice little low tunnel shot in there maybe a mid-range even for Eagle he made half of a mistake but he’s already back on track maybe even a putter from that angle he’s he’s not that far that’s wow two massive shots from McMahon Keith center cut for his second this looks like roller two doesn’t it it’s not a bad idea yeah you know get something on edge got a lot of land out there to work with only real bad place to go is hard right I think it’s going to be hard to get there with the wind blowing off their right shoulder this is loverly from Emerson down there with McMahon Orum look like our CR third roller you see how far left he’s aiming there I yeah he’s anticipating getting some kind of a reaction out of that Crossing wind so he’s aiming way to the left of the Fairway he’s been reading those other rollers hasn’t he yeah yeah look how far over that is now it’s going to get that push oh no but it cuts out bad bounce out there for Mt orm took the angle away Burns over early he’s going to have an interesting third shot long anheiser maybe another roller but it’s a little more of a fluky shot with all those late trees out there bir throwing three on five looked like the distance was about right mhm 133 with MC Beth did bergo be back there I think he did he might he looked like he was he was straddling an OB yeah yeah exactly meanwhile MC Beth hanging it out around the right side looks like he’s inside Circle one semont wow Montgomery winner out there at Waco a few seasons back showing up big out here in stock one hole to go for Colton see if he can get it into the clubhouse 10 under par be the outright Clubhouse leader this afternoon Adam Hamm is going to try to say something about that though yes he is not far behind and a few extra holes to play heberg t of 9 coming up the bogey on eight this is absurdly good gosh wow Calvin’s going to have a straight look yeah exceptional stuff Burr it’s a [Applause] parut looking at yes a right there he is one down as he drops in that was a par on five MC Beth for Birdie on 13 he’s got a window no MC Beth did that not go in four putts we’ve seen in the last half an hour just unable to get one to drop had that Ste start and things have just gone cold for MC Beth on The Putting area three cage hits right yeah three two of them low I believe yeah he sailed the one on the previous hole and then cage is there so that’s three out of four we are back with Oram and his third see the basket just left of center under the trees out there go to the roller trying to get this to go left that looks like it nipped a tree moving right long ways right into the thick some nettle back there Mato might have to contend with yeah maybe some fox tails in his socks that’s for certain Keith also throwing three looks a little low does it have enough velocity to push all the way in there yeah it’s a little short there Ian a little more air would have been helpful for Emerson Keith you see who has a share of the lead now Adam hamus you called it oh hammer time when he gets on a heater gosh it’s a lot of fun to watch yeah they are that’s for sure he’s a very entertaining guy when he’s on very charismatic and lots of smiles and fist pumps yeah and 80f footer Galore Bella is third Lo and left as well going to be short was that a tricky footing thing or just a bad swing Pho do you see anything maybe a little bit of both and it was kind of a weird stance there a little down and up slope going from concrete or black top to to the grass maybe some rocks in there a little slippery hard to say the shot shape was what’s particular it’s a little slowed Bender to the right little slow Drifter you know with the low ceiling you want to punch it in there but you also kind of have to challenged the ceiling a little bit these guys just coming out a little too early now Eagle McMahon saying ah I’m just going to take it up and over everything and the dice grenade or Spike Heiser Spike Heiser I think looks like a spike Heiser yeah we saw it happen again in Bur shot just a little while ago took it up and over retreated back down the hill that’s going to roll close to the circle there you go all right look for Eagle McMahon yeah in his wheel house shots are a camo F too on that camera work that was fantastic tracking on that Spike Heiser from Eagle that’s a tough shot to film MC Beth on 14 Ace run perhaps big flare skip they liked it down there towards the green James Conrad after the slow start looking for three birdies in a row long man world champion putting it together he woke up after that bogy onu and US champion yeah don’t want to leave that out that’s right give that man’s name some respect he wins the big ones Pho you know not a bad thing to be known for not at all that is a par for Burr Barella throwing four that was awful yeah the wind got on that one Ian throwing into a bit of a headwind got the nose over and the wind just sucked it down and right wow that was so weird F not much of a breeze you see it he threw the grass up it kind of pushed away and to his right that’s a heading Crossing wind and just little bit too much speed with a putter perhaps from that distance you know maybe a mid-range something a bit more stable maybe just take a little bit of the angle off there’s one of the pieces was off there for Anthony BR Keith has a long look at birdie she made a huge one back on ho two yeah 56 footer this is similar range God the shape on that was beautiful it certainly was and that was online the whole way just doesn’t touch a thing drives up just a little short good effort though it was and no three putt at least yeah that’s a big thing out here you don’t want to give yourself extra work if you don’t have to speaking of extra work orm headed into the brush for his fourth unfortunate with that bounce on the roller yeah started off looking pretty solid and then all of a sudden just took a turn for the worst and ended up in a nasty little spot out here yeah I love the angle when it was on the ground for the first time that’s not too bad that’s kind of what I I would like to seen out of ab have two different ways of going about things yep yep Barella to clean up that approach and save par Circle two though that’s an annoying bogey for ab you can see it on his face par fives have got to be your place to score when you you’re a guy who can throw 700 ft plus you know it’s just you’re just kicking yourself when you’re walking away from a par five with a bogey No Lie detected Pho you know it’s just one of those things there’s kind of no excuse really when you have that ability to throw the disc like that McMahon for birdie to grab a stroke on the card off and to the right for McMahon opportunity squandered here man it has been a rocky start for these uh feature players here huh it’s been a bit of a weird one Keith to clean up par we heard from Nate Perkins this is going to be the best weather day as far as the wind is concerned on the weekend you really want to take advantage of that cuz we’ve seen how this play plays when the wind picks up in the 20s the difficulty amps up Colton Montgomery on 18 that was a second shot to set up a birdie look look at this guy go and live with Montgomery trying to get it to 10 under for the afternoon no you know who’s at 10 though Hammer Time Adam hamus we’ll show you some Adam hamus action on the other side of this break I I promise we’ll catch you there OTB and MVP have curated another

jooin Adam hamus for Birdie on whole 15 that is for the solo lead at 10 down two hand bones MC Beth for birdie we saw the drive [Applause] should get the putter working again just two off the lead of Adam hamus who was one hole ahead of MC Beth Or was at one point anyway Keith T of five Keith going roller look at the wind shove this right perk how is that roller looking for Emerson Keith that made up some serious [Applause] ground yeah I love the roller play and it looked like it was going to flip late in the flight ended up cutting out he’s nearly pin High I just maybe 90 ft from the bucket wow huge stuff thanks perk orm’s going to bite off that line oh the big anheiser route instead there is OB left but Orum is fine yeah yeah yeah Bella oh excuse me like a man I can’t tell I think this is going to be a big anheiser like Orum let’s see yeah perk can you give us some reference on that McMahon shot it looked enormous Ian myself and the 150 Spectators here have no idea Eagle threw threw it into the clouds and then we all lost it uh word is that it it’s safe down there but that’s an acceptable answer when McMahon throws the disc you know other people yeah AB hopping up there as well ooh OB huh wow that did unravel early for Anthony Barilla MC Beth tf65 I looked high can’t it find a window oh it does he in on the side Hill looking like he’s right on circle’s Edge for MC Beth for another birdie and business gon Burr on the power five was that for Eagle it probably was for Eagle right jump putt from 140 ft yeah and we got confirm confirmation that was for Eagle he has that left for birdie that’s a pretty attackable ho Pho yes it is with their arms hamus now on the T of 16 let game plan off the te here Pho get it as far and right as you can honestly for these guys having a sidearm here is a premium especially if you can get this thing to unravel get an edge on some of that Fairway grass and get a skip push that thing out there to the right try to open up that Gap have seen a lot of guys just play for the edge of that water that pond over there and then just play the spike Heiser up and around okay I imagine with the day getting windier as it goes on that variable is just going to increase and we camera cursed Gavin wrath buun ouch or not back to Oram little Chip Shot there for Mador drives up just shy of the bullseye little drop in birdie coming up Conrad this is out in Conrad country going to the jumper there is Off the Mark he’s off that green though right he should be fine okay there’s a golf green far side but there’s a little room to work with not the tightest screen on the course those are coming up we’re looking down at Bella I believe or McMahon that looks like a McMahon okay thank you it could be wrong yeah so that was his third after the OB he’ll have that left for four but kind of throwing away a pretty easy birdie if you have a good t-shot look the rest of the guys all in bounds and makeing pretty short work of this McMahon his second can’t wait to see this Keith second Pho yeah I’m curious to see where that ended up I wonder if it’s that big bigger tree out there to the left yeah manah not a clean line just going to Chuck it up there take his birdie 3 move on little bit of work left but that’s in that warm-up range how about this drive from Paul McBeth that’s the way you draw it up there at the 16th that’s the line when we were doing our drive-thru last night I was like I think we’re going to see a lot of sidearms here that backhand is daunting yeah it’s a really tight line sidearm just a little bit more space can keep it lower to the ground get that edge edgy skip Keith for Eagle he wants the easy birdie instead hard to blame him there’s your answer out there about 85 ft for Emerson Keith gave it a soft bid wasn’t a complete con McMahon has this left for birdie and cards a birdie on this this is the easiest hole in the course you surprised by that no it’s it’s really not the hardest t- shot for these guys they all throw the disc well over you know 500 feet most of these guys getting off the tea clean just give yourself an angle and it’s a pretty routine up and down from there there’s really nothing to worry about OB nowhere within 150 ft of the basket and just a couple of late oak trees out there to contend with it should be a three for pretty much everybody was a three for everybody but Parilla as he cards the par heading to five yeah miscalculation there on thead second shot for hamus on 16 so he came up a little bit shorty and he didn’t catch that full flight a little low out the hand coming up just in front of the it’s on the back edge of the ball golf green if you’re playing the course but on the front edge going towards the disc golf hole here he’s got a long carry got a distance guess on this one like is it 450 at least okay and he’s going to most likely going to try to play it up and around the closest trees to the pond and that’s a rip onole seven Ganon Burr attacking with a forehand he loves likes it already turns his back on it cool guys don’t work don’t watch Park jobs is that how it goes he knew it was going to happen at the right angle good speed let’s take a breather and check our scores and wow Adam ham is Paul MC Beth one2 Colt Montgomery in the clubhouse CER Doan in the clubhouse look at young Zack Nash National amateur golf champion a couple Seasons back we’ve been saying his name on the regular been popping up man it’s good for him man it just shows how hard these young guys have been working all of these cats have been yeah grinding hard over the past few seasons to get their names in the books and good on them man it’s good to see the hard work paying off that’s what it’s all about man absolutely all right Adam is ready for his second ho 16 layup play just going to shoot the Gap keep it green it’s not bad golfing there if you’re Adam hamus he’s kind of around the fpo pin more or less right on it practically so he’s going to have 100 foot approach shot or so smart golf Burr on seven for par he was OB beef it was OB short OB short man look at that did he hit a tree on the way in interesting I thought he loved it yeah he did I guess he was smacking himself it was an aant shot now he’s got this left oh chains didn’t do its job kind of almost kicked off the chains seemed like it gained some speed after it made contact and caught a little wind on the back end of that jumping back to six for Keith is this your second easiest hole on the track right now playing a third stroke under par solid rip once again from Emerson or of course designer letter Muse done such a great job of using trees to shavee shots Pho this course doesn’t offer much in the way of elevation so he had to make it long and had to make it technical or these guys are just going to eat this place for lunch it’s just so much space to work with if you just keep it out in the open you know and best players in the world are just going to have a field day with that kind of track had to use what he had available to him Barella see if Eagle can unload a clean one here huh it’s okay it’s not great got there in a hurry yeah got there fast but a little low AB on T not thrilled with it there Ian no way too high perhaps not the worst of connections there with the tree saved him from going deeper to the left yeah maybe hit one of the many trees on this course as MC Beth row 16 just saw the tea shop from Adam hamus here that has better height there Ian yeah that’s pushing should hook up there it goes shouldn’t be too deep there you go green flag door jar for MC Beth Conrad H just a step inside the Circle high off the band long man having some words with himself as Pho called Adam hamus about 100t short and lays that up perfectly for par or at least I hope so yeah it shouldn’t get away from him that didn’t have much speed on it taking a look down at all these amazing trees out there Nate I’m we got some Oaks we got some redwoods I’m told you found a third type of tree out here talk about that oh yeah there are actually cork trees out here like what they make the corks and wine bottles from and there’s a few of them dotted around the track here and yeah I think Leonard did a phenomenal job of using the trees he had available out here at Swinson with you Nate thank you after a couple early tree hits baella throw his second it’s progress but you’d like to beat that second row on your second shot he threw there really hard real hard yeah it was moving it was moving throwing a little angry after that uh drive maybe one can only speculate you know I’m sure this one will be moving pretty fast as well McMahon in his second there’s a lot of air space out to left voo on this second shot mhm is he looking roller looking airshot we’ll see a little nippy there off the tree and whatever it was it wasn’t good Pho Adam hamus tapping in the par two left to bring it into the clubhouse with a lead smart golf in there from hamus yeah it was Keith this is his second shot all the room to lay down a roller if he wants to he’s going back to that same driver probably from the first hole that thing flew a beautiful line little stand up I hope that’s what he goes to yeah it is it’s got to be the same disc did he tug it too much a little bit though got through yeah it doesn’t doesn’t cost him anything easy up and down from there next up looks like orm arm goes to the Towering turnover does it stay clean no s said I need quit throwing that thing we have caught up with heimberg once again putting for birdie whole 11 [Applause] backto back birdies there for Vinnie after the bogey at the eighth back on track seven owner par MC Beth is second on 16 excuse me three in a row for Vinnie oh my eight under Power by miscalculation there that should good putts May a little short Pho hard to say I couldn’t catch the angle it looked like you had the right you know flare skip approach into the green there but we’ll see if it had the distance yeah McMahon his third on the par five six it’s okay it’s not great you would like to be closer yeah AB also throwing three badly saw off orm going back to the bag for his third I think we’ll see one close here Pho it should do that’s a wide open I mean that’ll do something with that the card isn’t inspiring much confidence though it’s been a little rocky for our feature card little short little right there for mtor little work left heimberg T of 12 this is really wide Pho uhoh I don’t think that’s got a chance it almost kicked in off a tree headed to a drop zone I believe yeah you are correct sir it’s a death put too for par after he just got three birdies in a row heading to a drop zone and most likely picking up bogey I’ve seen a few people bang it today but not many Keith is third that should be good enough yeah it’s inside Circle one maybe a step off the bullseye yeah MC Beth for birdie whole 16 there he is circle two put towards the water short again for MC Beth one can only Wonder his throwing has been unbelievable today it would be for me these puts were dropping his TD Green stats have got to be just insane it says he’s putting 89% from c18 for n but man C2 only two for five that’s why it was in my phos philosophies man you got to make a couple of those bonus you know a few of them at least you’re going to have a lot of opportunities to score just if you can capitalize or not the McMahon approach was a little short left let’s see if he can cover cover it up with a good putt for birie heavy chains but nothing do and expecting perhaps a little bit of wind to assist the disc towards the center didn’t get it I think you’re right Orum and his birdie look coming up that’s better than it looked from the angle behind him yeah definitely inside Circle one a little bit of headwind here for mtor shouldn’t affect his cut putt at all little spinny cutter he likes to throw out there one of one the Matt orm Putt and it’s good under par for Matt orm see if he can get something rolling here yeah I guess the only guy that kind of reminds me of orm Nate Doss he’s coming back for Portland open F you see it is he signed up man how about that the last time that guy’s been there uh it was the 208 Zoot toown open I want to say six years it was 18 or 19 yeah good luck Mr Nate dos yeah man Keith with a nice putt for birdie this is a par coming for ab on a birdie hole that’s two holes he gave up the two softest holes on the course with his arm let’s Jump Ahead to Adam hamus on 17 definitely a hole that you can birdie all about that drive being good attacking position nice rhythmic swing there from Adam hamus right down the middle and we will show you his approach on the other side we’ll be back before you know it I’m beyond excited to introduce my first disc with MVP the prism proton Envy also known as rebirth Earth the stamp is really special it’s an eagle rising from the flames it’s a disc that I feel like is so versatile whether it be an approach putter or a throwing putter that can be almost classified as a mid-range I absolutely love the fact that my name’s on it and I’m going to be able to throw it it’s an incredible

Drop [Music] Zone biscuit in the basket he’s amazing just cool calm and collected All the Time marching around sagging birdies and trophies it’s a good way to put it it’s kind of what he does huh Keith now on the tf7 this is such a technical shot here and look at this from hemerson Keith on the bullseye the no stress putt on the elevated pin you love that wow I wonder what Fairway driver that was that thing never left the line well you can put one in your bag if you want I bet you I could you can go ask him after the rounds that was pretty sure was Orum try to bite off that line good luck though that was perfect wouldn’t be a bad place for the sidearm if you got it all the danger off to the right here at the seventh got those Cattails sticking up on the edge of the pond you got the limbs of the Oaks hanging down angle of the Hill rolling towards OB Matt orm fillets it nice soft skip there from mattor he’s well inside c one looking at birdie well swing there it was Eagle McMahon that a little loopy huh it was but with his power maybe it gets there all right green flag yeah below the basket couldn’t tell if that was Circle one or Circle two I’m in that same boat Barilla can he get it going AB even on the day and he’s going he’s going backand Pho I hope he pulls this off yeah he sawed that off instantly I am so surprised with his sidearm abilities he doesn’t just dump a little one angle Heiser out there and leave himself with 20 ft it was a far from going onto the OB green Adam hamus his second shot on 17 very conservative play there from Adam hamus and is the magician from Manaka powered by naao it’s a tongue dude good luck glad that’s not my job you want to know part of this basket swing he’s just pitching that thing out there for a par and get on over to 18 try to get this thing to the clubhouse 10 under for the day all day I love that play from him right there he’s played smart the last couple holes yeah 16 could have forced the issue said no I’ll just take my par move on 17 same we’ll see what he does on 18 if he gets clean off the te got an opportunity if not take your par get it to 10 under McMahon Circle two for birdie Deep Circle two oh it’s well early can he find it no missing on the right side grade back up the other side there it is tree in the wave seven M probably not right tester yeah Bella long look what’s he doing over here that’s it’s a wild Miss man like you say he’s got one of the nastiest sidearms of the game it’s a Chip Shot for him at 360 something you know he throw at 340 get a little ground play and you give yourself 15-footer now he’s going to throw it OB well thankfully he didn’t do that but it almost felt like it for a second just talking with perk on the commercial break and he said something that seems to be true he’s not throwing the disc with intention he’s just kind of like winging it out there and whatever happens happens I don’t know man got to find a way to turn that energy around man you’re a tour winner a three-time tour winner this season you know it’s in there it’s in there man just settle down throw a couple good shots and get rolling again McMahon has us left for [Applause] par job done there Orum not much work left on this birdie putt it’s a slow day for Matt but this would be three in a row and it is okay that little 25-footer full attention elevated basket little tree in his face oh yeah steps it in there nicely it’s a comea par look for AP that sees the bottom of the bucket and a drop in for your defending Champion what a turnaround for Emerson Keith after that opening whole three putt yeah you know I mean that that can go so many different ways for a guy when you’re a defending champion and you got everybody watching you’re on camera you got some sharks on the card with you and you just come out shoot a goose egg to start whole 13 heimberg goes to the inside outline I thought maybe we’d see a flex from him here trying doesn’t quite get right enough for Calvin he’s going to have a long look yeah like 60-footer pin High left something like that 17 McBeth ooh drifting left and a bad kick Long Carry into the green for MC Beth from there well decision made for the rest of the hole now most likely yeah it’s just going to get harder so if you don’t get in the prime position it’s layup Central hamus throws his third soft little bid there trying to give it to half go we’ll drop in par and move on to 18 as we check on [Music] scores not much happened since the last time we took a peak y Calvin thas y Rath Bon still cooking too oh another Finn making a move with Nicolas antila down there seven under here we go who can hold on Keith t of8 another very technical t-shot here at the eth long par 4 really got to find yourself in good position here to attack clean living for Emerson Keith he got all of that one in way out there Orum three straight birdies looking to make it four trying to get stable catch an edge not quite high enough there for Matt orm going to dig in a little early from where Emerson is birdie look for heberg pen High left but quite a bit McMahon back on eight wow Eagle big flaring skip going to join Emerson lovely shots from those two competitors one left to go Anthony Pella needs to turn things around get that Mo going in the right direction up into the trees again Ian what is going on perk you’re watching this on the ground how I we haven’t seen AB out of sorts like this all year no we really haven’t and he’s a little quick on the footwork and I I feel like it just has kind of snowballed for him today once he’s missed big enough as he has this round now he’s kind of reaching for something and kind of questioning to himself what’s going on and yeah about as big of a misfire as you’re going to see right there who did not missfire Eagle McMahon let’s roll back auka on that just smooshed Pho yeah must be nice man we throw that fast in our dreams Pho not even in my dreams dude not even your dreams lately get away with that no no my dreams are going like 475 you know nice and crispy love it hamus your leader T of 18 trying to bring it home solid t- shot there for the [Applause] h and MC Beth his second on 17 how aggressive is he getting here now moving left that should be a green flag there for MC Beth out in the middle of the penin Pula wanted nothing to do with that PIN placement Bella second back on eight looking vertical again Ian mhm eyes are over the top yeah caught the very tippity tip of that tree up there 35 40 ft in the air lucky oh man Anthony barell just a little discombobulated this afternoon as you guys were saying first time we’d Seen It All season where it’s continued on for longer than one shot it’s a long birdie bid for MC Beth half go at most throwing the disc great but the putter just quite hasn’t shown up all the way yet for McBeth 18 Adam throwing his second yeah this gets him looks short does 11 huh yeah it’s short that is short see if he does a little soft stepper there and sends that home to get to 11 or just lays it up and content with the 10 under yeah no bad decision there orm his second on eight it’s not going to birdie but it should be an easy par from there shoot it the long way across to Green yeah probably even use the green to his Advantage cuz they skip and slide so well get that thing on edge and just throw it with enough speed need to get across and it should settle right there that’s how we used to do it back at verigo back in the day before they turn the lights off oh man a my heart still breaks every time they say that turn the lights off that was so much fun that was that was a cool thing you know it’s pretty unique it you think about it like you’re not going to find that in a lot of places pige and put part three with the lights the Burger Barn and be man gosh epic stuff they got it down at David Baker down in Orange County did they really yeah wow Huntington Beach Crew runs that one I believe oh nice Jeff for I think was the guy doing it for a while hopefully he’s still doing it I don’t know yeah that’s him key thrown two Emerson look at you dude rarely seen birdie here at the eth not that effortless anyway that was super smooth from Emerson two near perfect shots great drive and even better approach ho 14 with heimberg waving this thing right going to hustle no clobber a tree he’s going to be short and left hamus for Birdie on 18 if what do you think he’s doing I think he’s laying this up that’s smart good job there Adam hamus yep that’s what some experience does for you yeah he’s he’s gotten to that point now hasn’t he I think so it seems like it you know like why take the risk and throw that variable out there McMahon his second this to get overstable in a big hurry he hung that out there good 70 ft too wi in I’m not sure what was going on there for Eagle is he grabbing he’s taking his time yep see if he can cover it up with a big putt mhm into the clubhouse with the lead out of hamus excellent day for Adam hamus yeah nice to see him back on top of a leaderboard one of those guys who’s always working hard has a great attitude loves to share with his fans in his community a lot of fun to see these guys blossom into their own as the years Roll by it’s it’s fun isn’t it it’s cool man it’s it’s a different perspective being on this side you know when you’re in the mix you don’t really appreciate it as much cuz you’re trying to beat him all the time that’s true huh yeah kind of saying in your own head right it’s not like you’re hating on him but you want to beat him we’re all competitors you know that’s that’s the thing is we play to win that’s the third for ab hopefully that was close orm in his third Soft Touch of Mato should be a green flag bador tap in left mhm want to sneak in a quick shout out to all our volunteers we had every card score capped out here man excellent yeah MC Beth on 18 smooth and right up the middle F and then directly behind a tree yeah that was a nice swing it sure was he’s throwing the disc well this afternoon McMahon for birdie don’t do that okay little half go there for McMahon from about 45 AB not especially close here Pho yeah not the angle you’d prefer to put from if if he doesn’t touch a thing this could run off circle’s Edge the opposite direction and that was for par it’s a good par save fantastic par save under the circumstances yeah better than good even par almost halfway through the course struggling to find a rhythm and then bangs one from circles Edge death putt at that yeah that’s a big big moment there for ab Matt or for his version of par does the job how about that birdie for Emerson Keith man he’s he’s kind of on a heater actually no he’s officially on a heater man I mean he’s doing the same things he did last year when he took it down you know he’s just playing to his strengths you know throwing the shots that he wants to throw not worrying about what other guys are doing making some putts you know sometimes when these guys with the big arm try to do too much things get away from them and if you just stay consistent and steady like Emerson’s doing here get six birdies on the front nine potential to get seven heimberg for birdie you saw the tree hit off the tea it’s up there Ian maybe it was going in man I would have loved to seeing it not touch that oh well let’s fly whole nine follow why not awesome Par Four here that t-shot fear Lefty thrower get into trouble hurry on that right side really does set up nice for these guys with the longer straighter shots throw something over that corner keep it straight definitely want to play past that 360 spot you’re looking for more in the 430 range that’d be ideal somewhere out there in the center would be preferable versus off to the left and you can see how those trees out there on the left really block up the airspace Fairway Central is ideal here then you got to press across the water little further back there than this pin I believe that’s the FP the M’s back there in the shade of the further trees or is this the a position yeah this is the a position and there’s different positions for the B position I didn’t know they left it the same I thought that was it’s a different t-shot that’s what it was y my bad I’ll get in there we go well there it is everybody not the longest of power fors but get yourself in position should be able to snag a birdie yeah Keith with the Box sitting on four straight trying to make it five Anderson will live with that Orum this is great that’s what you’re looking for right there cut that corner hang it nice and straight stop it in the middle give yourself all the room to work with McMahon oh my you ain’t joking there Ian another 80 feet past Emerson’s disc at least that was a good better best right there Pho wow from those three there’s a noticeable difference between the arm speed of a guy like Emerson and a guy like Eagle you know it’s just a different action they both throw lovely shots but you can tell there’s a difference in velocity for sure it’s about 10 milph with memory serves Barella t-shot that’s shaping up nice as well yeah that’s the eagle McMahon line though there we go now AB is throwing golf shots again nice maybe that putt straightened out his attitude a little bit and take something right yeah get something positive going the driver for Paul Is Awesome on 18 until it nestled right here can he make the second work has a swing so he has a away does it hang on indeed it does he and that thing drifted so beautifully once it got up there on the left side man that was a gem from a really wicked lie heimberg looks like a second shot don’t want to come in too H there we go nice way to play a bump and run yeah on ho 15 excuse me flying above hole n with our flight Factory drone perk talk about the the t- shots they got there how far ahead are ab and uh McMahon ahead of Keith well actually I was right behind Emerson when Eagle Unleashed on his drive and he turned around raised his eyebrows and said that would just make things so easy if I could do that and Eagles disc didn’t start Heering until it got past Emerson’s probably 110 ft in front of Emerson after he kicked off that tree and I think he actually has a tough decision right here whether or not he’s gonna send this over I think he’s got 360 to clear the water right here Ian okay we’ll see what he does he’s grabbing range as we look Emerson’s got that carry all day long it’s not a matter if he can throw a 360 or 400 it’s you know picking the right discer that is a big part of it yes I think that red disc he’s been throwing today is a good option here that thing flies really straight once he puts it up on that heer anything similar to that is going to be fantastic here for little vacillation here from Emerson Keith going back and forth does pick one finally though does it stay up Ian if it can it Miss looks like it just got clobbered oh man just when you start to get something going miscalculations like that mhm MC Beth for bir and a share of the lead never a doubt Pho that’s more like the Paul MC Beth we’re used to seeing that was fun to watch wasn’t it that was clean 10 under there 72% Greens in regulation 91% from Circle one 40% Circle two are good zero OBS zero bogeys clean living there for Mr MC Beth and he will likely be on your league card tomorrow see how the rest the day shakes out though orm his second back on nine that orm get some air underneath the disc but I don’t know if he got that turned over enough this is leaking left all right 35 footer or so left there from mtor just shy a pin High Bella next with the second shots right next to McMahon putter perhaps overstable putter for these guys that wasn’t overstable Pho not enough anyway took forever to to fade he just dropped out of the sky on him yeah is there a left to right wind on the on the shot perk I think Hiser just really got held out oh McMahon almost throws it in yeah he made the adjustment he saw what happened with Anthony barela’s shot got hung out there and he just put that thing right on the 6 and 12 and nearly threw it in for an eagle it barely moved didn’t it it’s been a while since we’ve said Eagle for Eagle huh it has been a minute man yeah heimberg par 15 T of 16 I love that shap being a little bit more push uh now a little fast started off wonderful not terrible though for Calvin kind of where Paul was yeah not bad okay that’s actually better than it looked that first look it felt it finished a little further left yeah Keith throwing four after his second got wet ring it up Emerson that should be close enough for bogy it’ll be six birdies two Bogies for Keith netting a four down front nine it’s not bad it isn’t still on Pace to have a strong afternoon get this thing 678 underpar on the afternoon you’re still right there in the mix not a bad performance for returning defending Champion yeah know you’d like to get that three putt back on the first you’d like not to throw that shot away yeah but that’s golf right you got to keep it moving still got nine holes ahead yeah still some opportunities to make some birdies does get a little bit more difficult to score on the back nine but you know there’s still opportunities you know keeping yourself in the right head space is so important that is Matt Oram in circle 2 is looking from our flight Factory drone hovering over the pond huge thanks to our friends at flight Factory head flight Factory dis tons of discs gear great way to support your favorite pro you can scan that QR code right there orm strong off the top right there in that tester range coming back got a little headwind lift on that putt AV from the other side for birdie it’s been one of those days for Mr Anthony berilla rough front nine see if he can turn things around get to whole 10 here one birdie one bogey the rest pars for ab orm speaking of pars wouldn’t mind one right now and he finds the same spot as a Barella it’s a three putt for orm to produce a bogey mcmah for birdie let’s get to two under on the day the long looking 5 feet follow no doubt just enough to get over the rim there for Eagle McMahon that gets him to two under par also needs to light a fire and get something going here on this back kn feel like I need to get to like five five you know is at least keep your head in the in the competition at least five yeah it’s there for them if they throw good shots you know conditions are favorable today you really got to take advantage of this and it’s I don’t understand what’s happening I mean these things happen you know you just have off days off rounds something’s not feeling right they’re all in this weird space right now energy wise and we have caught up with one niik La Castro look at him in the top 10 playing strong all right clean seven underpar crafty veteran going roller and that caught a terrible bounce off the oh and a tree yeah what Tru let’s fly 10 I really like this hole this is a fun part three it’s been around since this uh tournament got in the ground eighth most difficult hold playing just a smidgen overp par on the afternoon guys having a hard time getting inside Circle one just 21% you can see why all that water looming just behind three steps away hard to get extremely aggressive unless you’re playing that wide overstable skip where all the speed gets burned out on the flare and it’s very touchy just 435 ft for these guys isn’t a full blast but got to have the right pace on this you’re picking up a stroke I really really like that cut swing here off the te overstable Bleed It Out to the right swing it in late McMahon of that mind oh he’s doing something completely different this is that slow lazy Annie look at that shot in I don’t think we’ve ever seen that line before not quite like that H not like that that was a mid-range I imagine yeah I had no Fate on the back end Barella he’s he’s going slow too Pho okay is that a putter looks like a putter to me wow this needs to get underst stable in a hurry not a chance in why throw this shot Pho oh we’ve said that five or six times today why throw that shot oh my gosh I’m not sure what’s going on with a today uncharacteristic from what we’ve seen of him this season Keith you can see the winds blowing from left to right I’m sure he was anticipating some help but didn’t get it the Keith t- shot is looking good that’s ideal shape oh no not the ideal speed just a little hot for Emerson inside Circle one to save his par perk we’re watching orm take the tea here I heard you uh you caught something about Eagle his thoughts on his shot there oh Eagle turned around and said that was a terrible shot and it clearly wasn’t his intended keep well that makes sense why we’ve never seen that line before Pho yeah I mean there’s zero space out there on the left side for air and yeah he got away with one he did or he’s in there that’s a that’s a par all day heberg his second on 16 you saw the drive a while ago that’s in danger left high and left green flag did he hit the tree he caught the tree that that was dangerous that bailed him out for and in the clubhouse is one of your co-leaders Paul MC Beth let’s send it on down all right joining us in the clubhouse second player to double digits today Paul McBeth 10 under par clean what are your thoughts I threw the disc really well today um I cannot be mad about that give myself a lot of opportunities but once I got onto the green it was uh anyone’s game there and uh hit the cage a lot so I feel like 10 under felt like a very poor 10 under today you said you had a bunch of Eagle looks today and there are eagles to be had but they’re pretty tough to get talk about all those holes and all those opportunities yeah the first one um I’m forgetting the number I think it’s six the Par Four I threw a roller there uh I threw it a little inside of where I wanted but with the wind we had today I went about 25 long and then I was in C2 and uh the way that the trees were there I just didn’t have the best look at it I had to like swing it around the tree but uh just barely missed that eagle look had to tap in birdie and then the next part five after that I actually got my drive in a weird spot to where I had to throw a roller again and it got way up there into into C2 um on my second shot so I wasn’t really running it but the wind decided to make it look like a run and uh yeah then had another another birdie there but uh yeah just threw the disc well today you said uh they brought a camera crew out to kind of follow you around and you said you got iced I know it it’s probably a little bit of a joke but does that ever ever affect you you’ve played for the camera so many times no the camera wasn’t there it was just it was just funny timing um but I yeah once I had the first eagle look that was the first time I missed a putt I was pretty solid the first first five or six holes there I had a C2 Putt in there as well and then just everything just hit the cage they weren’t short they were just low you know I wasn’t leaving them short I had the power just not getting them high enough at this point in your career is a putting performance like this something that will make you go out to the practice basket today to find something or is it just go to sleep wake up and hope it’s different I just think I was trying too hard um and just getting my arm going ahead of my body so by the time I was releasing it it was just going into the ground or it was the other way my body was too eager and I was getting ahead of my arm so I was just putting them low um so I’ll probably go toss some putts over there get the feel um and I just need to I mean putting is just being relaxed you know it’s not like we’re throwing the disc that hard we’re throwing at 30 45 ft maybe doesn’t take much effort Paul nice round today nice start we’ll see you tomorrow thank you thank you Paul and Brian Nico has this left for par that’s a poor approach Pho something happened unable to get it up and in for L Castro we’ll scrape up Bogey and we will take a break we’ll be back to the action before you know it [Music] I [Music] [Music] [Music] I think this golfing can improve our community in many ways it brings people together that maybe some of these kids who feel

throwing over the Brian aart OTB sign effortless 500 foot drive there from Eagle McMahon and perk I’ve gotten quite a few messages about this shirt that eagle McMan is wearing I’m told you did some research can you fill us in well I had to ask him what was up with the Cardinal and he said it’s actually just a a joey tamali shirt and he’s rocking it today because it’s Joey’s birthday a that’s really nice thanks Nate Emerson Keith beautiful shot shape there from Emerson Keith got that thing up in the air so we can catch a ride lovely we saw Joy tamalia last night yes we did he’s got a Estonian lady friend how about that yeah it’s the best shank of his life ended up meeting his girlfriend he hit first tree available and that’s how they met isn’t that great man yeah that just sounds so funny when you say it like that best shank of his life yep the orm shot that was a fun Story the way that he said that it [Applause] was AB can he find the groove one over through 10 it’s pretty far F it’s very far are you seeing anything on on ab’s putt is he not following through or is there have been a few today where it seems like that there’s a disconnect the hand isn’t really Rising into the Zone you’d like to see it just getting a little choppy on the way forward that was heimberg in for par on 16 little slow down but those are some tough holes we showed it this morning but see that OTB sign yes it’s got a little bright your heart signature on it nice from when he tagged it he did say par though Pho what a guy right seems like 10’s got to hold on Pho doesn’t it never know if they heimberg out there that’s true huh he could chase him down couldn’t he two more opportunities for him there they’re both birdal it’s not like they’re impossible to birdie just requires you to throw some excellent disl shots La Castro on 15 he’s throwing that flex play we’ve been talking about look at this shot from Nico bumping grinding off the green into Circle one what a shotly erase that bokei from 14 heimberg T of 17 he’s groaning a little bit trying to stay under those Limbs and push it as far as he can what a shot from Calvin he’s going to all set up the waterline look at that that’s a mid-range maybe even a putter for for Calvin into the circle area there what a shot man and he’s straighter and he’s Opie in the water off the te just blasting this and he’s kind of groaning at it for a second but man this turns out probably about the best we’ve seen yeah he made all the use of that that ceiling exceptional back to orm rle 12 11 excuse me playing the Poke and hope along the right side oh my take some courage get a forward flare there you go mattor Circle Edge putt there for Mio crafty shot from The Savvy betet thank you you saw the drive another the putt for the Castro nice birdie that’s a great birdie yeah it’s a good separator not the longest of hols but it’s got some teeth mhm Obi green short right OB left the entire way yep back to 11 for Keith in his second nothing looks that enticing from this spot Pho yeah that’s a nice big angle out there it’s always that wind that makes this second shot dicey it can kind of lift and go you know it’ll lift one shot and drop the next hanging it out there over the water is always a little dicey Emerson’s lining up a sidearm it looks here safer play initially it can get slippery on the backside if you miss fire looks too low looks like he caught something yeah 100 foot approach left for Emerson Nico live on 16s te similar to what we saw from MC Beth finishing a little left should be a green flag what he he gave me the green I just McMahon back on 11 his second what a shot Eagle Bullseye Child’s Play for one Eagle McMahon out there in the Fairway starting to heat up maybe Pho that’s going to be three in a row there we go get a little something cooking here late on a Friday afternoon perfect everything about that mhm thanks isuka for Rolling that back that Replay for us Bella in his second the low Flex good not great a little bit of work left for Anthony yep doesn’t seem like those two talk much does it no’s he’s missing cupcake man you know cupcake is out playing wasn’t he with Paul y y somebody said something about maybe cupcake could Anthony BR might be cading for cupcake tomorrow the way things are looking right now you saw that ready com think it’s that bad it’s not going to start that early you think not there’s still time for Mr Bella to turn things around y get himself a few underpar this afternoon to keep things respectable Orum it is a birdie putt whoever shooting that bush nail thing is got some work to do I said 25 ft looks like he’s about double that he’s definitely Circle to spinning jump put away for orm catches chains dribbles out how does that jump out of the bucket just a smidgen on the right side there Ian solid effort though for Mt orm Bella from circle’s Edge for birdie to get back to even on the day didn’t think I’d be saying that this late into the round Pho nor did I Ian you know you’d really think this type of a track lines up well for an Anthony Bella something got under his skin this afternoon especially on the front line having a hard time finding an establishing Rhythm been on the roller coaster pretty much since the start three puted the first hole as well didn’t he no he got the only one of the he got the only par he got the par yeah he missed a short putt for he was a 25-footer for birdie feels like a three put caged it yeah exactly that is a birdie for McMahon and three in a row let’s see if we can get it going McMahon now four under par six off the lead with seven to go day one second shot for heberg on 17 after one of the greatest drives this hole has ever seen faxed Ian way down there oh yeah there you go Calvin throw it in ooh flashing chains Calvin heimberg nearly snags an eagle haded on two Dimensions beautiful t-shot sets up this wide openen approach just a mid-range over a for Calvin hanging it out over the water tons of land look at that chain High entrance into the a foot short so close onto that tricky peninsul like green as well one more opportunity for Calvin heimberg to KN it up that’s for certainly going to turn into nine under power for Calvin count it see if he can make this a three-man race here you’re going to take a Peak at whole 12 before you pet your card heads there walk us through Pho this is a great one I love this par three not the hardest hole on the track just 328 ft for most of these guys probably could get away with an overstable mid-range maybe take a overstable faster disc and hang the sidearm out there got Circle Edge on the backside a little bit less than that on the front what’s that four steps to that OB short it’s not a lot of room to work with there so you got some more room side to side best play the boundaries and fade them in makes that heberg DZ save even more impressive from that angle certainly does it’s a big putt McMahon we saw MC Beth go to the sidearm here I think the wind is a helping wind for this sidearm shot see you can say it helps or it hurts cuz if it’s accelerating yank it out there too much and you don’t give it too much respect then this happens yeah you’re right it’s a tough one man it’s not a lot of space when you’re thinking you know 60 ft side to side and 30 ft deep it’s not a massive area after three straight birdies McMahon will head to the Drop Zone and try to save par especially when the wind starts blowing you know and the barbles just start stacking on you AB it’s got to hustle up and it flare skip no one me short brutal I think it comes up shorter or longer is good you know I can see that skipping in off the water I would really like to see a little more air under the disc and have it stall in there instead of such a penetrating line it just seems like that makes more sense with what’s happening over there Keith Emerson just a couple extra feet of height let’s see how this finishes short as well Nate is this just a tough win for this forehand shot right now what are you seeing from behind the tea I mean there’s a decent headwind but it’s maybe 12 mph at its Max right now and the green is kind of sitting under the shadow of the oak trees and it does look really small but those are three huge misses from those players let’s see if Ora can find one Matt orm gets this thing up into the air does it have the carry it does not all four competitors taking a stroll to the Drop Zone rarely seen I don’t think I’ve ever seen it he put four Ians on the card maybe but these guys got some Champs out here playing like some we got a Champs versus Chumps coming up pho you said it I didn’t I’m not doing it where is it at man oh Portland open Tatar and McMahon we’re going to get smoked yeah you are yep there are tickets on sale right now on the website disprot tour.com the Castro shuffling his way into a tree smack let’s hope that stays green oh did that come oh it did all right looked like that HD and retreated backwards but cut through and I mentioned it get your tickets one of the biggest events of the year you love it PDX Champs versus Chums two of the best players in the game on a long course it’s going to be humiliating and hilarious Pho that’s the point right indeed yeah we got big germ and SE on the call live commentary you get roasted in person memorialized for ever on the internet your bad shot your good shot whatever it may be your slip and fall yeah I have done that too H it is bound to be fun hope you guys are out there I’ll see you there if you do I’ll be I’ll be chump wrangling as it were I might sneak in a couple shots we’ll see from the Drop Zone McMahon fluffy little bit there from Eagle tickle some chains feels like the appropriate Pace with not much behind huh yeah you can’t throw it much harder than that unless it’s dead center there we go Pella showing some courage on these putting surfaces yeah been behind the eightball for a little while it feels trying to break free can Keith do the same step through finds the cage and a bogy coming up for Keith or for par there’s a matty or spinner finds the bottom two out of four ain’t bad not at all bogey for Keith bogey for McMahon and they will head the whole 13 and try to grab that stroke back heimberg T of 18 going to his favorite Fairway driver looks like he tug this one right will he gets some Fortune doesn’t look like it buried along the right side for heimberg it’s a natural obese stroke right there La Castro his third didn’t quite get the full Carry he was looking for on that second one wisely just pitching that up taking his par all right it’s all right you playing a good round you know that’s a tough get too man 846 with the shapes you have to throw in that hole you know there’s no distance shots it’s a very technical t-shot which doesn’t allow you to go crazy on it cuz you’ve got that pond creeping up on the backside you got OB to the left OB to the right so it’s very prescribed t-sh shot there you can’t just get wild with it and take your medicine you got to think small aim small Miss small type thing and then that second shot very very technical either going up and around or keeping it down below it’s very thin line either way that up and over shot can get away and end up in the water quickly and it’s easy to catch the trees on the low line taking a look at hole 13 378 another technical t-shot out here got that Mandy off the Box things open up pretty fair out there on the backside just a couple of late trees big trees at that to put around on the inside Circle one playing the third easiest on the day about a quarter stroke under par AB has the T I like this play if you’ve got it it feels like the best option I agree early that flare skip helps a little bit it’s Circle two Circle two but a clean look M Orum also saved par from the Drop Zone I think this option’s a good one but it’s extreme ex technical what I think Mio is trying to do yeah this it’s a flex right under that limb takes a lot of trust and then that disc has to unravel in a hurry this seems like it’s taken forever for Matt orm’s disc 38 footer wide open look for mattor see if he can connect with another spinner like like man Flex as well or is this a turnover you think I think he’s going to go for the flex ah Miss fire from McMahon in a big way there long ways to go get up and down for a par Keith good stand up that was perfect in the center nice little flare skip that’s how you bounce back Emerson Keith cough went up in a silly way on the previous and come back and snap one down the middle b z here for the birdie everyone else has going to have to work for it Eagles got a lot of work left he does he get 80 ft off the box with that maybe and on 18 heimberg and the natural OB pitches out to the corner yeah there’s nothing else he can do yeah he’ll finish that nine under par should be able to get that up and down straightforward approach McMahon second that’s going to need to hustle oh no Eagle McMahon out there in the Fairway long putt to save a par now Ian that is going to be back to back bogey likely after ripping off three straight and kind of getting in the mix man yeah the roller coaster is real out here on feature cards sure enough 18 with heberg his third perfectly paced approach there from heimberg inside Circle one maybe a few feet shy of what you’d really like but didn’t overthrow it and send himself into a weird spot Nate we’ve seen Eagle go to the forehand a couple times here and there does he have a sense for like the distance Max on his forehand right now I thought he maybe would have used it off the te there yeah honestly I don’t think that there’s a limit to how far he can throw the forehand right now after watching him just ease off on one and and have plenty of pace on seven and then go for it on the island with the forehand I just think that the execution just isn’t quite at 100% Today just just doesn’t doesn’t have that eagle stuff we’re used to seeing from him yeah it takes a while to get back into you know dis golf shape after oh my goodness yeah had a ways off yeah yeah yeah you feel that don’t you man you’re you can talk you can speak to that for sure especially coming off of injuries and having some ailments you know and eagle with his elbow and then was his shoulder and he’s had you know numerous other things you know come and go take time off and you get out of the rhythm of the touring life and like I was saying mentally the skills are there but physically Al you have to earn that stuff back earn that timing earn the confidence it takes time you know Barella in circle to to get back under par last time he was there was whole two not enough power on that pu I’d really love to see AB just take a big deep breath you know just shake it off and let it go maybe smile a little bit you know and just kind of let some of that pressure off you know doesn’t look like he’s super mad or anything but the same time like want to feel a little bit of fun a little bit of joy you know that’s one way to turn things around everybody has their own way of doing it you know he has the right to play the game his way not trying to knock him just kind of what it seems like from the outside you know you got to do something to mix it up a little bit heberg to get off the course with a par and one off the lead wow looked closer than it ended up being for Calvin heberg Circle Edge dribbles out the right side and he’s going to drop a stroke to eight underpar opportunity to get it to 10 and tie it up not to be for Calvin heberg we’ll take a quick break here on the dgn catch you on the other side my name is Garrett girthy and I’m the founder of double G craft jerky I love the fact that it’s resealable I can just get a little bit keep my energy levels up but not eat like a half of a meal in the middle of my round my favorite bag is the smash Cracked Pepper that’s my perfect salty snack this is my go-to the sex and sweet and spicy if this bag gets open there’s no need for the seal cuz I’m going to eat it all [Music] [Music] TR [Music] me me [Music] [Music] L Castro tf7 welcome back left get over there trying to talk it into position not a bad angle but not quite as long as we saw from Calvin earlier 14 Keith I just sped over just a tiny bit too much yep a little higher a little more stable something in that combination M had the line Bella inside line inside line for Barella flare skip in there you go that’s a birdie putt inside Circle one on the elevated pin or slow day for Matt as well three birdies two Bogies losing every inch of the Fairway ground play going to dry up a little short there for mtor arm Circle two look saw what he was going for though that slow Drifter from left to right runs out of air very quickly about Circle two out there b man this is doing the right stuff yeah it is great angle on the entrance here you go nice shot from Eagle but it’s been a roller Co coaster lately a quick check on your scores as heimberg in the clubhouse with that eight thanks to that bogey on 18 puts some in your Chase card for tomorrow maybe depending on pdj numbers andon bur still hanging around eight under 35 got a couple more opportunities just one bogey back on seven for e for Eagle for birdie eagle [Applause] McMahon Bella also a pretty look Orman Keith just pitched up for par being out of [Applause] range AB one down with four to go day one Keith a par and or will also par we got a doggo living his best doggy life nothing like a day in the park huh tons of squirrels out there to look at too you could be Fox food Nico’s third on 17 I’m joking we hope not of course not I’m more worried about the geese honestly oh ni great effort just be happy it’s a green flag bud it’s can get squirly off of these baskets 2 me from the bucket yes a nanin is second on 16 [Applause] yeah KAG flag back to 15 Bella can it get stable in time file though just in time for hand nebr got to sit down it does okay right in that edge that was on the OB line for a minute McMahon try to improve on that result pretty big gap over there for this sidearm play honestly it’s 347 you only need about 320 in the air get a little bump and ride to the right should be parked similar it’s almost exactly the same living on the edge over there they sure are but they are happy with the result see if Keith can keep it a little bit safer those two discs looked uh pretty neutral in flight for eagle and Anthony Bell we’ll see if Emerson goes similar or perhaps a bit more stable and ensures that right turn that’s more the line I had in my mind when I saw this whole play right into the face of the Hill sit down safe no brutal oh man by a whisker Pho oh that looked beautiful I thought that was going to kill the speed perfectly What a fine line you know too far left real be left and OB be right lurking as well did not see that happening for Emerson with that release or I’m going to the flex backand oh he doesn’t turn it enough ouch oh and sent out to the right that’s open wide open wide open can’t hate that kick second shot for Burr on 16 looking vertical no right down the middle Kon bur as you can see looking for four in a row seeing a lot of guys clipping those leaves on the corner coming up 100t short oh yeah at least 100 short like bur’s birdie streak will end on 16 I love two more chances though and a chance to grab a share of the lead if you can go birdie birdie it’s out there for him yeah it’s right there that is Matt orm Center of your flight Factory drone screen his second waving it down there you go bounces off the crown of the Hill kills the speed for technically for birdie we’ll see how aggressive he gets though a little flick of the wrist there for Ganon not 0% aggressive didn’t even give it a chance see it’s on a bit of a down slope there so it could potentially catch an edge and roll smart play there from Ganon birdie look baella Putter’s coming alive for Anthony bellaa late this round gets the two under H yeah just right out yeah Keith for par oh no Emerson jumps out the right side that’ll turn into a bogey four here at the par 3 bit of a roller coaster this afternoon for Emerson McMahon for birdie and or par does the job and a disappointing bogey for Keith probably think birdie 90% of that disc’s flight you know from the te and then at least I’ll get a par you would think and then it spits out on him scrapes up a bogey yeah nanin a birdie on 16 nicely done only 12 birdies on a whole 16 today Yesa one of those that’s a tough one to get Ian yeah that Peninsula green is really pinched off over there on the right side takes a lot of courage to go after that that is your easiest place to Bogey on the course 43% of the field as the weekend goes on you’ll see see it’s going to get even more difficult to score birdie there the winds are going to pick up Saturday and Sunday you see a lot of guys just dumping it out there to the left conceding toar 18 L Castro he’s can find a good spot to sit oh that might be all right d that was the tree Paul was nestled on and got up and down right that’s true he was a little tighter to it as well he was right up on it and swung it around the left side so Nico should be in business back to 16 maybe I like that Ian this I like that a lot it kind of gives you more angle into the green you can throw a straight up the tunnel instead of having to start it off on Heiser and then make it flatten out and then carry and then Heiser again should have a straighter straight up and down six to 12 look at it like man thought this might be a forehand for him I like this play for Eagle long as it stays in the air doesn’t cut over too hard he should be heading right over there by Anthony there you go a little shorter but similar angle Orum this is looking nice too yeah it’s going to join the crew a little shy but not bad and now Keith beautiful haer flip up Glide fade right in between McMahon and Pella let’s check out pho’s keys for closing brought to you by our friends at blacking this.com the premium disc golf store yeah that’s one of those things that feels cliche to say but try not to take on some late Bogies we just saw it for Calvin heimberg had an opportunity to tie it up at 10 under par and now back at 8 getting good angles to attack is key here on these closing holes you can see it here on 16 17 and 18 really setting yourself up for an angle to attack so that she can clean up and close out strong that’s that’s the name of the game out here that’s where this tournament is going to be won and loss these last few holes come come Sunday yeah 16 17 18 coming on the stretch those are stroke swingers big time I mean you could easily take double bogey on any of those holes if you get loose on 17 te again in Burr a little shy but should have a nice angle I just don’t think we’re going to see a drive as awesome as we saw from Calvin heberg the rest of the weekend that was incredible that seems like a safe bet I would take the under Pho if that’s the bar the Castro and his second on 18 on the inside of that tree MC Beth was next to yeah more open shot for La Castro disc in the air it’s too stable though starting to unravel oh fortunate little love tap off the tree straightens him out but still Circle two look for Lac Castro on the elevated back to 16 orm in his second orm puts a charge into this catches the canopy and knocks him down got that Chip Shot to get it up and down for his par we’ve seen so much of that here on a 17 such a difficult shot to get it in there close to have a look at bird3 oh this angle is so much nicer than those shots on the left voo big time the world of difference big time better throw an actual like distance golf shot into this green from this angle there’s some room to work with and for a couple of these guys they could definitely play that big wide heer and actually see everything that’s happening instead of being to the left and it’s blind on the entrance Keith throwing two oh see if it’s got enough carry indeed it does Emerson inside Circle one that’s a golf shot Ian he’s still in it has that putt to get to four see it McMahon is he looking at that big over the top spot huh is awesome View this towering Heiser from the flight Factory drone one tree to beat oh going to catch it comes down and catches an edge rolling is that on theing green Obi what a terrible break for Eagle that was what a reaction off the top of a tree you know brella best Drive we’ve seen all day Anthony chooses to throw the golf shot down the middle it’s got to slow down that water comes up quickly I don’t see a Ripp sp’s on it he’s marking it that’s out of bounds for Anthony Bella Ganon throwing two on 17 onto the peninsula green too far too far too far again we’ll have that for par on 18 La Castro for birdie all in all not a bad day there Mr LC Castro seven under keeps you in the top 10 clean it up tomorrow come back and do a little better there’s your feature card heading into the green of 16 Perkins did you happen to watch that uh McMahon shot coming to the green looked like a pretty rude reaction off the tree yeah if he throws that shot 100 more times the chances that he hits the tree and kicks right like that are just extremely low really unfortunate break I love the play with the Heiser he had the the tail left to right that was kind of keeping his disc from finding the water left and ju just hung it ever so wide and paying the price here yeah brutal break for Eagle that cool you guys and likely pick up another bogey the man hasn’t had a par since whole eight Pho that’ll be three bogeys five birdies in that span is this a little half go AC it’s who knows today man I think it was it’s been one of those days you just why when you think you got a your finger on it it just goes the other direction it has been that kind of day you know seems like these guys are pulling out of the out of the funk and then there they go on the bogey train again and then here com some birdies and then they sprinkling another Bogey and this has not been a solid performance from from these guys up here this is where barilla’s disc rolled into the water has this for par good make from Barilla salvaging par two under on the day Keith this is a birdie putt and to get back to four roller coaster has been real for

[Music] [Music] Burr for par on 17 that man is filthy with a putter in his hand yeah Iceman strikes again saving a massive par at the 17th death putt after going OB Gathering up the courage about that man no fear it’s so impressive was dead in the middle too no doubt about it it was let’s uh fly 17 before our future card heads there not the longest of par fours but man The Backs side of this hole is treacherous you’re off the mark You’re can to end up like Ganon Burr trying to salvage a a par such a technical t-shot you saw that 510 marker and Calvin was to the left of that another 30 40 ft just in Prime position to throw a little dunker in there and snag a birdie rarely seen Landing Zone but wellth thought out hole how they use that Lake to really just pinch you off there on the teapad and make you think about things M well thought out hole 40 on a rope from Calvin hyberg so impressive every time he does it just makes you shake your head I know it’s not even like a golf distance line you know it’s just not for most that’s the man throwing a golf shot not for most in that Elite category that’s for sure sure he is also in the club baella all right this on the right starting line there you go almost spinning Josh over there right next to the water great shot from Ab should feel pretty similar for ab there’s Calvin heimberg Chip Shot it’s been all Pars in the back nine for Matt orm so far no this is left all day clobbers a tree does well to retreat back towards the Fairway best he can do there is par options for Matt Orum does he shoot the water and try to get safe on the other side or just chip chip Keith I thought I heard some contact Keith a little shorter and lefter than you than you’d like man you go three under still despite the roller coaster around burner missfire from Eagle McMahon not completely out of position to score with his arm but definitely going to be a very difficult shot to get anywhere near Circle one that would definitely be pressing the issue try to get on that green peeking in from our flight Factory drone their feature card Orum should be first as he lining one up right there I hope he can bite off a big Chun chunk here Pho you would like to think with his disc finishing back in the middle that he should be able to press this over the water and get onto the other side o misfire from Matt orm he clobbers a tree comes straight down there you go that OB line right there on the left coming up quick yeah that tree definitely did him a favor it did looks like he had a bit of a misstep there as his foot landed kind of lost his balance and cut the swing off a bit early yeah there’s decent amount of like holes around here we saw it was a bumpy bumpy Drive last night man don’t is a bumpy Drive do not take the pho Express you guys it’s a bumpy ride yeah well a my fault the rough is rough it is those golf carts don’t have a airbag suspension either Pho do not lot of fox holes out there you got to swerve around Eagle decisions how aggressive does he get this looks like a flex P he’s H holding it out there on that angle like he’s going to try to stall it in there maybe like kind of aim pin High left would be a a fair aiming spot it’s not a bad one with his abilities oh no oh no oh that’s a great kick see if it stays safe looks like it did I’m not sure what he was going for there I think just the big Flex out over the lake man right per you got any idea from the ground what we just saw from McMahon and it is he in bounds after that second yeah he was definitely just going for the hero Flex Shot out out over the lake and I think you know sitting at three under par he doesn’t feel like he has anything to lose and that that did kick him safe over there on the left side wow all right thanks Nate he’ll take the result if nothing else man I guess it’s kind of in that position for a guy like Eagle you know you’re seven strokes off the pace first round and having a weird day maybe force the issue and try to make something happen it’s fortunate that it worked got in his favor big misfire there where you aiming right here if you’re Emerson Pho you trying to hunt pen you yeah I think I would take a stab at it if I were Emerson Keith he’s got a little bit of help being a little higher than the basket so that should help with the distance and control coming into the green you can stall it in there a little bit better being above the hole it’s not a bad bad option at this juncture here for Emerson I think the mental thought is finished pin High left standard Heiser hanging it out there trying to control the speed there you go nicely done from Emerson stops on a dime I love that shot from him right there I should get him back to 4 Ender yeah Burr on 18 two off lead a chance to make it one this get stable right about now this is going to be wonderful one tree to beat I think you’ll be all right there you think so I think so okay AB after a huge Drive call it 500 ft will throw his second very similar to Calvin’s Drive gaggle of Canada geese right there like Goose Raz I don’t know man all right he’s got it it’s just what he needs is one of those birds to jump off when he’s throwing clobber one just add insult injury on his day right like what else is going to go wrong for me today that’s the reverse Randy Johnson if it h happens right right yeah that was wild up that bird that poor pigeon I’ve seen it happen on the golf course have you really yeah yeah decapitated a bird off the tea oh my it was pretty wild man the orm third is decent should be good enough for [Applause] par second shot for Burr he’s going slow and overstable we go gon BD inside Circle one that should get him to nine under on the day one stroke off the pace e go checks up inside Circle one also bump ralin to the Chase card with bird grabbing his spot they’re very close in pdj number 4,000 off 75,000 for 79,000 for rallan AB for birdie that’s a timely cut there for Anthony Barella trying to turn that frown upside down out here on Friday grabs one more gets the four he can make up six Strokes in two rounds absolutely you can or him to clean up par we go M orb nice clean up good result after the drive McMahon for par a weird way to get aart but he did it f yeah that’s definitely not the way you draw it up on the old chalkboard but Eagle McMahon nonetheless going to walk out of there unscathed somehow Keith and nice birie gets the four should have been a lost disc and a drop stroke for eagle and somehow walks out of there with a par so this this morning it was is Paige back this afternoon Pho it’s been is Paul back it’s been like one of those days hasn’t it similar stories on both sides fpo and no this afternoon but Paul MC Beth coming back in a big way out here in California solid performance went six for six to open did MC Beth stumbled around for a little while had some problems putting the disc had three or four of them come up a little shy on the height he said he had the Speed right but miscalculated the height and it’s fantastic up and down here at the8 to tie it up at 10 under par fantastic little Bender up the left side stalls it in there t green it was the old MC Beth all day Pho you know he threw the desk he threw the disc exceptionally well today he didn’t really make any mistakes throwing the disc all of his errors came Circle one shallow Circle two I’m let’s check out our Paragon notable statistics for one Paul MC Beth shortly adire a cute fox in the meantime F nap time is nap time go for one of those after long commentary day what’s for dinner Pho you got a flavor I heard about a Chinese spot in town ooh I’m down oo there are your stats Fairway hits 95% that’s miss one you he said he did he he did his you job on the tead in the Fairway just didn’t connect there Circle one there are The Strokes gain T to Green nearly seven strokes on the average in the in the field see if MC Beth can continue his Pace tomorrow it’s been a while since we’ve had him in the winter Circle hasn’t it yeah it’s been since Europe State Side I couldn’t even tell you it’s been a minute was it is it usdgc is that his last wow no couldn’t be Burr in for Birdie on 18 and joining your league card we do into the chase I’m really struggling maybe the stat Mando guys can toss us a line before the show’s over let’s fly 18 though in the meantime [Music] Pho you got this OB well natural OB on the right here Pho actual OB on the left oh there is a line out there on the right you could go far enough yeah see down there line there it runs the whole length of the hole practically so yeah you got to throw a clean one off the te can’t get sloppy here nice 400 ft Drive will set you up beautifully to have an angle to attack this little Keyhole green got Circle Edge to OB or so on the back side Proctor told me a funny story on this one he hit the first tree on the right pitched back out of it and then across all the OB for par okay yeah baella needs to get stable does looks like it bounced off one of those line little Flags out there along the line Keith threw a laser with this disc to start the day let’s see if he can do the same to end the day no first available and I think that was directly out of bounds Ian oh no Perkins can you tell us what happened to that Keith drive I’m down here in the landing Zone but from our angle it looked like it went immediately left and did find that OB after coming up that great bir on 17 too Forum almost to the corner do you think it’s enough pretty solid there for Mad Orum he should be able to fit something around the corner a little tight along those trees on the right side far enough you should have a free swing Eagle put a charge into that one he’s really going to like that Ian yeah set up beautifully for his second a chance to get the four on the day can get where You’ like to be yeah it’s not where these guys would like to be they know what the number was it was already pretty much set before they even stepped foot on the course so they know they’re far off the pace and it’s tough when you’re a player of this caliber you know and you know that you got it in you and guys like Anthony Bell who had an outstanding season so far just a little flat this afternoon and I’m sure it’s a little frustrating but like you said man still got two full rounds in front of him he’s one of the most talented players in the field if he can just settle in man and find some kind of Rhythm tomorrow could find himself in the top 10 in no time Keith lining up his third after the OB Drive well he does so perk I’d love to get your thoughts on this day one before we finish 18 yeah I felt like Emerson showed a lot of heart you know the nerves were definitely press present on hole one with that three putt there and then kind of went on to to light up the next eight holes found himself another bogy on nine and then the back it just kind of fell apart for him and really the rest of this crew here on this feature card had a tough go at it I still think it’s going to take at least 28 under par when it’s all said and done so nine 10 under you really want to push that and these guys just didn’t have the stuff today and you you took a look at the weather for the rest of the weekend how’s the wind looking on Saturday and Sunday this was the calest day uh we’re not going to have anything crazy we’re going to have you know gust peeking up to 20 M hour uh but this was definitely the the cist of the three thank you Nate thanks for all the work man there are you canic current conditions for the final time today Bella throwing two going to the putter that putter had The Drifter on it that’s cool shot it was he was looking for that at whole 10 earlier this afternoon and just bailed on him out there and hooked up went left is that going to get they need a four yeah yeah it will how about that yeah I mean he’s got a bird four of the last five F he and you are totally right my man was he short he was pinched off all he could do is just thr around the corner play it for his par par back nine for Matt orm huh nothing doing wow picked up bogey at the ninth and Par at home McMahon scene lining up his second you can’t drop a disc in a better spot than Eagles right now past all the trees wide open approach dealer’s Choice here for McMahon ni spot on for Eagle McMahon rides the boundary line and into the bullseye a little drop in there also getting to four not you know terrible considering what happened to these guys today you know the roller coaster the Mis cues the forcing the issues the beating themselves if you will to still get it to four underpar I mean like Nate was saying that’s showing some heart you know same for Emerson Keith you know who this is okay it’s just perfect pretty perfect honestly it did look scary for I was like headed right it’s about to get stable yeah but that will work for a bogey for Keith dropping him to three it will be tough to defend from that position yeah no doubt seven off the lead and two rounds to go with a Nick beast on top and Adam hamus who’s been playing some great golf genon bur up there ralin Mony who’s Scrappy as anybody else out there you got heberg yeah right behind him Ezra Robinson coming off the win at Masters Cup there you go it’s a fumble that seems like that’d be a good tournament for Ezra Master cup yeah uhhuh played Pinto Lake and de la Pho nice yeah haven’t been to Pinto since worlds okay I’ve been back a couple times since 2012 or something was that right uhuh I usually leave with poison oak I’ve never got it you haven’t gotten it there never ever oh my goodness marched all over the hills at Santa Cruz and Pentel he must be immune or something I must be man I’m the guy they send in after him parella four P Lake’s a really cool track though not the sorry for the the PO shade but great mix of open holes wooded holes OB not OB Keith for bogy [Applause] and McMahon gets to four joining forella maybe they play together tomorrow and Catch Fire together you know we’ve seen that before well they certainly were flat today let’s see if they can I was going to say it didn’t work today get

you what the disc is going to feel like how heavy it’s going to be it’s everything you want to know before it shows up to your house not just marketing it’s only the best and welcome into the OTB after show at the OTB open it’s like it was meant to be [Music] Pho and well wel to the booth for final time Ian and Pho that was a weird day one Pho yeah you could say that not the day we were probably all hoping for but it was a day we survived it together yeah there were highlights out there you know there were some moments for sure I this course I didn’t think would be such a roller coaster I thought it’d be more of a birdie Fest man yeah you’d think so too with the long arms in the game out here on a monster course they’d just be out here shredding it up but you know some days it’s Rocky like that and yeah you know it’s you can’t really expect anything with golf you know you got to go out there and earn it and some days it’s a little tougher than others yeah it’s a game of imperfection it is and you know some guys still did their thing one notably being Paul McBeth who it’s been a good minute since he’s won State side and we were just doing some research on that and it’s been since world at Emporia 2022 so it’s been a minute now he’s back up on top of a leaderboard for the first time in a minute I could imagine and it’s pretty awesome to see him back you know it’s so much more compelling when the best players in the world are playing their best you know and Nic Beth is one of the alltime greats of the game and he’s you know this generation’s goat and it’s so good to see him back and playing well and he like you said he shot a 10 and it felt like garbage almost to him with the opportunities he left on the table it reminds me of those old old Paul rounds where he starts talking like that again it could be a long second half of the season for the fellas CU once that guy starts clicking and popping you know you might not see him for dust for a while so you just got to hang in there I don’t know I’m just excited for the rest of this tournament Al hamus up there on top Colton Montgomery another guy who’s hasn’t been up on top of a Leaderboard on a on the elite for a minute you know he’s had some good turn but it’s been a minute you know and other players like Gan bur who started off a little slow and all of a sudden boom right back in the mix K ralin another one of those super talented young Stars yeah his arm’s gonna be fun to watch going to be a lot of fun to see what happens on the next couple of days for sure Calvin heimberg in the mix Ezra just got a win you know Gavin putting in some work he’s had some strong showings this weekend Nik La Castro another Savvy vet who could pop off at any time and a bunch of other guys behind behind so nothing settled here in Stockton moving day is going to be great man it’s going to be awesome yeah should we OTP this thing yeah let’s hit it man do you know what it is I’m going to guess maybe that birdie from Calvin on 17 we hadn’t seen too many awesome things there I don’t know I mean there’s I didn’t really see too many like highlight caliber there’s just a lot of quality shots today yeah that’s a fair take all right Marky always have good selection what do you got for us man hit him probably something we forgot all right the misfire from the eagle the misfire for the park job that’s not what I was looking for but I’ll take a birdie very demanding t- shot get sneaky for smeagle that is like a mid or putter too isn’t it it was a mid-range if that was a putter that’s just ridiculous yeah and if you want to get more analysis from Nate berens Brian aart make sure you stay tuned for tourn Central that’s for pro subscribers concl starting right after the conclusion of this show love here from those guys talk this golf absolutely appreciate you guys and now the broadcast times for tomorrow for moving day at the OTV open 9:00 for the women 2:30 for the gents follow any

  1. I don’t care what the Foundation/Grip Locked guys say. I LIKE Philo in the booth. I like his mellow/cool energy. I like his knowledge. Congrats on the wedding, my guy!

  2. 3 months into picking up the disc so I thought to tune in and see another side of the sport

  3. Notice the lack of spit outs on these baskets. MVP Black Hole Portal ver. 2 should be the standard for the entire tour.

  4. Adam Hammers, Paul McBreast, Snoop AB (California Dreamin’) Emersome Nice Tees … unless the pool is 50,000$ plus, players don’t care because their sponsors are paying them to perform like circus animals boo booo boo booooo
