Minnesota Majestic Update: Pro Disc Golfers Thrive on Blue Ribbon Pines Course

The second day of the Minnesota Majestic proved to be a success for the pros competing on the challenging Blue Ribbon Pines course. Despite initial concerns about storms, the weather cooperated, allowing players to complete their remaining holes from the previous day. The course's unique character shone through, with its varied and beautifully maintained features.

One of the highlights of the day was the number of aces achieved by players. Dano Johnson, Chris "Critter" Meyer, and Danny Polk each hit three-hole-in-ones, with Critter and Dano both acing the tight 155-foot shot at #8, and Danny sinking his ace on the left-to-right turning shot at #21.

In the open division, Nate Doss took the lead with a strong round of 71, putting him 17 under course par. He was closely followed by Dave Feldberg, who trailed by two throws, and Cale Leiviska and Nate Sexton, who were tied for third place just one throw behind the leader.

Valerie Jenkins held her position at the top of the women's field, but Des Reading was hot on her heels, only three throws back. Sarah Hokom and Liz Lopez also trailed closely behind, both within one throw of Des.

In the Masters division, Jay Reading's birdie streak helped him take the lead with a score of 76, giving him a two-shot advantage over Jeff Harper, who was competing in his first event of the season.

The Blue Ribbon Pines course is known for its unique personality, featuring wooded holes with distinct characteristics and features. Players must navigate through terraced greens, strategically placed ponds, and a small creek that makes itself known on several holes. The course's variety and beauty make it a true gem in the world of disc golf.

Play will continue on Sunday at Hyland SSA, where another 27-hole round will be followed by a final 9 for the top four men and three women. Fans can follow the lead group live to stay up-to-date with the latest developments from the Minnesota Majestic tournament.
