welcome back to Bonanza Disc Golf in a super cloudy day today I'm at community park in Channahon Illinois just outside of Chicago for the 35th Shannon classic which starts tomorrow Saturday so today I want to get a practice rounded and show you everything that goes through my head while I'm practiced so in this video we're going to go through my bag as well as my general thoughts I want to be a little more laid back show you most of my shots and all my thought process so I don't have to do as much editing but you guys also get to see a little bit more into my mindset because you guys have been telling me that's what you want so let's get into the bag real fast practice putting and get on to the course now to be honest with you my bag for this session is probably going to look a little bit different than my bag for the tournament what we'll finalize that at the end of video because in my putter pocket here I have my two putting Putters but I might not practice too many putts out there unless it's a weird basket because I can always just come back to the practice basket and I want to not throw as many throws out on the course because it's pretty busy and I want to give my arm a little bit of a rest but I'm bringing this guy God 4 back into my back because I've realized now putting the Toro in my bag as of that video yesterday this has taken the place of some of my zones and I'm not trusting my ESP Zone on forehand lines as much as I was before this is my more stable Sky God for them gonna try to work on those forehand lines to see if it it'll work or if I need to find a new disc but still on backhands it's just way too deep for my hands my opto pure my Toro as well as my ESP Zone and then just my super flippy pure that's great for just Woods turnover shots or anything that needs to go from a crazy hyzer to Flat I also have two more discs down here which are in the putter category for me the zone right here my Z Zone which I'd replace pretty much with my Toro and then this guy got four which has two Aces on it but I don't think I'm gonna be using it I brought it just in case it's just a little more flippy than this green one which I've only thrown like three times for mids I am bringing only four minutes I guess I have my Justice super over stable my fuse super understable this pretty beaten Lucid emac truth which is pretty much for me hyzer flip right now a little bit of turn and it'll go pretty pointing straight honestly and shoot not pointing straight and then my Lucid X glimmer emac truth which is my overstable throwable mid-range whereas this is more of a utility disc to get me out of trouble or if I need something to just get big skips or go hard hard left oh gosh a lot of therapies we're looking at from overstable to understable my 2021 germ Thunderbird this disc is pretty beefy for me I actually played with someone yesterday he was throwing like 150 feet farther than me and this thing was like Kaiser will be frame which is kind of crazy because I have this Thunderbird which is more of my Heiser flip F2 super B in Champion love this disc and then this is one that I normally don't bag but I'm bringing it today because it's slightly more stable than this guy and it flies more true to what a Thunderbird does fly like and so I'm thinking this might be perfect for some forehands that I don't want to turn over I tend to turn over my forehands with this Thunderbird so I'm gonna throw this I think on one hole because I came here yesterday and played some doubles with Steve he's actually a subscriber so what's up Steve if you're watching and then some other people it was a lot of fun then I got my Explorer which is my hyzer flip to somewhat turn this is point and shoot disc in the woods for me my evader slightly more stable than my Explorer and this is the only evader in my bag right now because I think the Thunderbirds overlap a decent bit with this and I might be switching this to an Explorer but still have that for now and then my river which is super flippy but also super Glady so this goes far if I needed to on a straight line for my distance drivers I actually am bringing one extra just in case am I I'm missing the disc I am I need to go find that in the woods I lost that yesterday well I have two races I had three my overstable grace right here it's pretty new my very flippy Grace which is super beat in and I brought three rides actually my overstable ride I honestly need a disc that's more overstable than this now I don't have one so that's things this ride relatively flippy pretty just straight right now honestly with still some finish because it's a 13 speed and a zero 3.5 and then this one I'm not exactly sure how it flies I think it's slightly less stable than my pink one but more stable than my other green one so I'm bringing it just to see how it flies on some holes but that's the bag I'm gonna warm up find that Grace hopefully in the next 10 or 15 minutes and then we'll get on the whole one all right one search for it didn't find it hopefully it'll turn up sometime over the next three or four days and lost and found that suck that's my second just regular orbit race that I would have lost one of them got found I hope I can get back to me but I'm gonna grab two more Graces one of them is my first run which I don't really want to be throwing second one was used just Royal ones I have no idea how flies I've never thrown it before so we'll see but I've been pretty confident with my part recently just need to honestly keep that confidence because putting so mental it's almost on the First Tee so let's get our first talk through about what this tournament is gonna look like I played through the course yesterday like I talked about with a little doubles match we played from the shorts so there's maybe four or five different longer pins that I'm gonna have to practice today but really the name of the game for me today is practicing Landing zones I just want to see what's a high percentage shot that'll get me inside the circle on every single hole because if I can capitalize on half of those I shoot 9 down and I'm not expecting to do that because I think probably six or seven will probably be good out here I don't know what the scores will look like I'm trying to not focus on the scores I'm just going to try to shoot my best game but normally I shoot my best round the first round so I'm not as worried about tomorrow's route as I am Sundays because for some reason I don't play well after having looked at scores and thinking about What's it gonna take to win so we'll have to cross that bridge after Saturday's recap video at going into Sunday but let's get on the hole one where we got about 360 feet to the pin so there is a u-disc layout here for my tournament layout which is nice but I'm honestly not going to keep score because I'm not trying to play around today try to practice I don't want to get any numbers in my head of oh this is what I can shoot because it might be way worse than what's needed to do well or I could shoot a really really good round today be feeling really good and not be playing up to that in the tournament and getting my own head because of it looks like hole one is 357 feet out kind of between those trees so there's a center Gap but I'm really looking at that big hyzer line you have to keep in mind there's water over there so I need to throw something overstable because I don't want to turn it over this isn't a hole that I want to throw a lot on because I don't want to be throwing a lot of Max this in shots the day before my tournament but just to kind of get it warm I am going to be throwing all five of these big distance drivers here starting with my Graces because if I can reach it with my Graces especially in no wind and that's probably what I'm going to throw because it's only 11 speed so I don't have to throw as hard as my 13 speed drives but I am going to try these drives just to see how each of them will fare we'll give it a Grace first and I'm really just looking to get within the circle honestly probably should have warmed up a little bit more probably short oh that's probably that's inside Circle I think that's about 20 feet I'm gonna try this other Grace really hope I don't turn it over oh that's pretty flippy that's a sweet disc though oh pretty similar result this is the ride that I probably would throw I'm probably gonna throw a Grace because I can get inside the circle with a Grace but this is all right I would throw it's a little bit too inside you need to really swing it wide which is the hard part about this shot that's why throwing it easier this throw can be better because it's going to be easier for you to hit your wine obviously you're not throwing it as hard so let's try this other ride that low line is actually really nice I like throwing lower shots anyways and that gets a more forward skip on that low Line's pretty soft we're gonna see where those landed and then really be able to assess what's our high percentage shot from here uh here's what we're looking at in terms of spread of the discs I have my ride over here not super bad Grace honestly looks like a pretty decent shot one Grace is right here what's that 15 feet that's an easy birdie to start the tournament don't miss your putts like that here's the other Grace which is way flippier than I thought which actually might work this might be that perfect level stability that I need here's the ride that I throw in that low line honestly either this on a low line because they are both fast enough that they'll skip my overstable one all those are pretty solid shots that big Kaiser line I don't think I'll worry too much about I just can't saw it off like I did my pink rise that still gives me a putt and the big thing I'm looking for is honestly just getting started well those nerves since this is tea time starts so I will be starting on hole one those nerves are probably going to be there so I'm probably either going to throw really hard or really soft and to mitigate that no matter what I'm probably gonna throw my most stable Grace or my most stable ride I want to make sure that I am mitigating my mistakes because ultimately the first three holes I'm just trying to settle into my round recently I've been trying to get more aggressive but I still keep taking bogeys during those first three holes so as long as I can really mitigate those mistakes and be even through the first three without a bogey that'd be better for me because what's frustrating is I have been even through the first three holes and basically all my tournaments I was minus one during one round but most of the time it's with one birdie and one bogey when you do that your mental game starts to go because every bogey you take affects you mentally big at least big time it's obviously you need to work on that having that not affect me but I'd rather just take par far far that's way more stress-free than birdie bogey because then I feel like I'm giving back that birdie I already earned instead of just being like hey I played safe and got par all right here we are at hole two I think Eunice says this is about 430 feet this is actually the whole I lost this time yesterday throwing it after a little round uh yeah Eunice says 423 which is kind of my edge of my distance I was super tired and hungry yesterday and I was like getting barely to the edge of circle with some of my longer drives but I was also throwing with like the worst form I've ever thrown it's felt bad let's see how far we are from here yeah it looks like it's about 398 feet so right around 400 feet and so this is one that like there's gonna be a couple holes at least right now before I've done a ton of field work and a lot of distance work that I'm just like hey I'm gonna be confident getting par you know that's like a good score if I get the birdie that's a real bonus for me right now because I think I can get there but I don't want to have to force myself so the play for me I think is just throwing it straight with a Grace which is a little less stable than arrive and letting it barely finish towards the basket so I'm going to try my more stable Grace then I'm gonna try to hide your flip a Grace and then I'm gonna try some Rhymes just to see what consistently gets there overstable Grace that's way inside and really short looking but way inside so I'm gonna try that same line just with a hyzer flip instead of Simply straight that sounds like a home security system that's simply safe if there's no wind that's a really good shot I might need to try to throw harder because I'm trying to not really throw as hard as I can and that's why I didn't want to do that because I'm turning it over good distance but I turned it over let's try these rods because they're flying a little farther from me right now I think this pink one is a great level of stability oh yeah that this is getting a little more flippy than I want I think that's about 15 20 feet ish I really need to do some distance work one really important thing too that I'm doing out here is thinking about ground action and like where my placement is going to be if I'm going to be 20 or 30 feet short if I want to be short on the left side on the right side or push it a little farther but make sure it stays to the right because it also depends on how I want to put at the basket on the left side it's a downslope so I want to make sure that I'm not putting towards that down slope so staying left like those Graces was actually pretty fine these are all things I'm trying to take into account as I figure out these holes right here's one right second green ride right there and the pink Rive is up by the basket like I said about 15 feet not even that's the grace of hyzer flips that's also pin high and that's honestly a better position to be in where's my other Grace found it it was even shorter than I thought so probably arrive for sure like I said I mean all those were within 60 feet I'm getting up and down from every single one of them just like to give myself a chance for birdie all right we got our first relatively straightforward hole sure if they got this way my question is is it a forehand or a turnover I'm more comfortable with the forehand which is why I brought out this guy got to try I do like the Toro line you just have to get in time with that first tree but I think that's what my play wants to be just a little too stable oh that turns all right first throw that and I know they're not coming in my bag but I think honestly if I just throw this turnover with the pure a little bit of anhyzer it's going to hold it and hopefully hit the wood chips in front inside the circle I don't know why I'm struggling so much with this hole I went and snagged everything the pure was only about 15 feet away it looked farther I think I need to just trust my Toro oh yeah one kind of tournament thing that I've been struggling with recently is having fun because I always play so much better when I'm just having fun and I get too serious my tournaments I didn't like this is what I want to do with my life so I want to do on YouTube I want to be known for it and I'll also want to go to the Pro Tour so I have to be perfect every time and like I don't I'm not good enough to play in the Pro Tour right now and I need to recognize that so I just need to play to my skill level and have fun doing it which is hard to do and you know how much you need to and want to improve I just need a slightly less stable Toro and I'm so happy this is one Pier which I think is either Justin or just outside the circle foreign here's a second Pier so those piers are good shots and here's the Torah if I trust it it'll get down here got options sometimes it's good sometimes it's bad all right here's hole four 345 so kind of the edge of my forehand distance I could throw a big backhand because I'm thinking either Flex forehand over stable or just really big hyzer and try to crash in I'm gonna try the big Hazel Lang first right now with the grace short really short that's I'm not throwing hard right now that's down there I'm wondering if instead of that trying to play the low Rive oh skip line way too inside oh I'm throwing way left right now let's try that forehand line way right this one's eating my lunch right now I just really need to turn it over more doing a practice putting on this basket because of how elevated it is I don't think any of those are inside the circle though so this one might be a bonus not the biggest fan of that I might need to focus more on practicing but I realized I'm having a bad time filming and practicing it's not easy the props the people who do that this Grace this first one is honestly one of the better shots but I was picking up some discs that I threw a low hyzer line around the outside with over stable this I think that's probably why I'm gonna play because then I don't bring these Woods into play unless I shank mine early and like worst case I get caught up in those trees which gives me a pitch up for a par best case I skip up right under the basket but I do want to practice a little bit of putting on this basket because of how elevated it is there's just so many people out here this hole though hole five 260. oh that's actually not crazy but it's so around and then up into the corner so maybe air forehand my medium stable Thunderbird I'm gonna try that out first yeah oh wow they had a tree I thought it was good let's try actually my less stable Thunderbird it's a hard shot I am going to try a big fuse turnover yeah that's a really good line actually got to get a little higher than that or a little flatter first Thunderbird not great with the basket up there but my other two shots landed really close to each other but they are outside the circle I think the flip up Highs are forehand is a play I think if I just hit that Thunderbird a little harder or a little less hyzer that'll be really good I mean fuse got through so a little higher would be solid as well another kind of uphill putt dang hello that's why we're practicing putting after this but I've been leaving myself so many Circle two looks these past couple tournaments I mean my circle one in regulation is probably been less than 40 percent I've still been playing all right but I'm needing to bring that closer to at least 60 my circle two way higher because I can make some circle two pots I just don't want to have to the whole six is also an interesting thing here because we we're playing from a longer path they switched it to honestly an easier pad which I'm happy with because it gives me a better chance for Birdie the other one would be a really hard birdie for me but we're going down this Corridor to the basket all the way down there 305. that's not bad downhill slightly so honestly you could probably throw my Pier but to throw with left force is more important when hitting these gaps because the more Force you throw with the more you're gonna spray it a little bit side to side which is fine on some holes but not this one so I'm gonna try to hyzer flip this on the right side and let it just fade as it slows down towards the basket so my flip your immature I was thinking of trying to throw some of these Fairways I might try one more just my evader let's see what this looks like hitting this gap on some anhyzer Flex instead of flat but that's definitely the tournament play for me that's solid as well may take a little more or skip a little more way more skip I am going to try the pure I mean that emac truth was such a good shot if I hit that line that's a good chance for a birdie even a little harder it's almost eighth a little bit softer a little more right that's a pork chop and that's why I don't throw harder because I just I sprayed it like I said good example of being bad other smarter people would probably call that bad example picked up the pier because that was terrible shot evader just got a big skip this is where you know truth went pin High just a little inside here oh my goodness definitely need breakfast spot if you can throw a mid or putter it's gonna be much slower and not get nearly as much skip which is really good when you're thrown towards the woods this basket is up around the corner to the right there I think the two obvious plays are turnover with my pure which I almost threw great yesterday and just a simple forehand with the Toro I'm gonna throw the Toro play first because I think that's a little safer play I don't know they're both really solid plays it's only 236 feet it's really inside and the Toro is more stable than my zone that's solid that's a really good turnover shot that is one of the problems with throwing new discs in your bag for a tournament the way that I can throw the Toro is so much more seamless than the Zone but it's for 204 not four three zero three and you can definitely tell that stability difference even though it's coming out easier I'm throwing it with the same power as my zones and I seem to be throwing a little bit harder which I can do on most of the holes I drive so much better for me for upshots but just in case I am going to bag that zone as a backup even though I'm a little more confident with the tour right now but all these discs I mean all four of these right here I thought the pier was far it was not Toro Zone one pure two pure parked all right here we are at hole eight that's 254 straight up the hill so probably place closer to 300 I'm gonna throw my pure I threw this yesterday during our dubs match and Skydive way past the basket but almost aced it so I think just laying off it a little bit more just on any line I think it's perfect this opt to appear it's a little short it kind of fell out of my hand but that disc is gliding enough that probably got an edge a circle look maybe Circle two I'm gonna try the fuse now oh that's a great shot yeah I don't throw anything else I will try forehand just in case I'm not feeling the turnover shot that's the Explorer no that I have a hard time keeping that down oh it's kind of in the open actually something pretty sweet that I've realized these past couple days really focused on trying to throw turnover shots instead of just relying on forehands because they're a little bit easier on my body they're a little bit more consistent in general and they take a little less power to do because it just tastes less power to throw back in the forehand most of the time so I'm really confident right now that I can hit these turnover lines because normally it's like okay I'm throwing forehand no matter what but this tournament I think I'm gonna be throwing some turnovers because it's just a really good shot and it can match the grade of the ground really well as well that being said I still need to work a lot on my forehead because it is over there but I mean fuse is great if you're yeah like I said just as a circle and I misreleased so release that one well I'll be solid yeah it's better oh yeah yeah I really like training on that right side today all right we got a ton of people on this hole so I'm waiting but it's the longest hole on the track hole nine last hole of the front nine 565 feet it says it plays straight up this gap for about 500 feet actually I'm gonna arrange it and then to the right you want to be in the middle of Airway honestly maybe a little left side is better but I'm trying to probably push a mid-range in the middle of the Fairway I might try my river and also my Explorer which are all my Heiser flip discs all right so it's about 420ish feet to the pole there it opens up a little bit before there so if you can try to get 360 it's a little aggressive but it's a good play oh my gosh two for two much better get under it though wrong side but that's down there keep turning wow that's tough you wanna play through all right that wasn't very confidence building I probably want to practice this a couple more times I'm gonna try my ride and my other Grace I think it's just honestly a little bit extra Focus like I know I can hit the shot I just shank my first two right because I opened this is one of the things I really need to work on formwork my form is just not super consistent I'm not throwing super far and I've realized watching some of my videos back because I added them that I'm opening up so early like right here my shoulders are open before the disc is out instead of staying curled and punching through the disc and then following through and when I do it the second way actually staying coiled coming through the disc goes where I want it to go otherwise I spray it right and that's what you saw this first gripple shot which happens when you get a little tired I'm going to play from a couple different positions just to get some practice in I'm just gonna give it one more with the other Grace that I have Heiser flip line this one's definitely getable I just need to throw a good first shot and I did not do that oh there we go all right that's the shot all right actually I don't need to practice it again that's really confident seducing I calm down my body which I was not doing good at because I was rushing through this practice room because there's people behind me I'm filming got a lot going on calm down my body focused on my form punch that line probably threw it about 380 400 feet that should be a simple upshot we'll play from there in a couple more places because you do want to practice getting yourself out of bad situations in case you're gonna have them on The Fairway like I will here now you can actually see the hole but this is where one of my really bad Shanks landed and now it's time to figure out hey how do I want to play the rest of this I'm really cut off on this angle here so I'm honestly thinking the best play for me which sucks is just to pitch out right into the middle of the Fairway there or if I want to maybe get a little more aggressive I could probably step out with a big forehand anhyzer shot with the fuse but the big problem is that brings this tree okay that's so lucky because that brought so much into play and got me what 60 more feet I think I still have like 360 into the pin from that first shot so probably just take that one and practice that play that out because that's another spot that I could land if I hit something early or even if this tree just knocks me down so we'll practice that real fast now I have people behind me so I'm gonna focus on not rushing again still a really big shot from here I think probably about 350 360 maybe 350. I might be able to get there on a forehand but I'm gonna try my Explorer on a backhand oh I don't know where my River went okay it's not as flippy as my River that's probably what I would have thrown but it got me up there all right this is a good position too River fuse a little bit easier just forehand up there about 80 feet further much more comfortable forehand distance I'm pretty sure my grace is like way up here though yep we said that pole was 420 so I'm probably about 380 400 feet we got a back end in or straight forehand in so to practice both those real real fast before these guys start yelling at me behind me I think this forehand with the Toro on Anheuser lie is pretty solid from here oh yeah pretty all day really need to practice that patent pending but that's honestly fine explore is about 40 feet that way honestly with a decent putt to save par pure back in here not a great putt but still a birdie putt for sure let's definitely play that hole that way calm down one thing I'm really focusing on this tournament is slowing my breathing down gets me centered and when my adrenal is pumping when I'm going super fast that's when I tend to open up my shoulders while I'm throwing and you want to keep them coiled until you release your disc so you made it the whole tent looking straight ahead of us in just beyond those trees 285 feet and to be honest with you this hole is why I brought one of these discs this Thunderbird because it's more stable than my super bead in champ Thunderbird but it's way less stable than this Thunderbird and I think it's the perfect shot for this hole because at 285 I can give it straight hyzer but I can push those sides which I did yesterday when I was out here playing doubles oh my gosh not a great showing and I think one of the things I've been realizing my forehand hasn't been hitting well recently and a lot of as I'm stopping here I'm not powering through beforehand and that is better but those are not where you want to be and throwing them way too much higher so I'm gonna throw the same level hyzer on this one have it pop up a little bit and we might not need that other Thunderbird way way better I think that was right over the basket this tournament is part of the four that I'm playing this month tournaments as well as playing some battle videos and doing a lot of work on the edits and stuff I have not been doing as much field work as I need to which is all excuses but my offices pretty much starts not after this weekend but the next one because I don't think there's any more tournaments on our route that I'm going to be able to play so that's pretty unfortunate but it gives me the time to really work on developing a consistent and Powerful forehand and backhand working my putty even more and really getting ready for next season where honestly even though I've only been playing since this January I think I'm gonna try to actually play at least one Pro Tour event if I can get into it but I have to prove to myself that I'm good enough to even try that so one good thing to realize is even back here this Thunderbird we don't have a terrible Lane to the basket we don't have one for a putt but like if I saw it off there it's not the end of the world I can still get up and down for par and even here I'm a little short so I really got to work on throwing flat forehands and practicing that tomorrow because all those were super hazard Colin Bertie ish I mean we're not keeping score all right this could get unfortunate because it feels like it's about to start raining and if it does this camera is not weatherproof so that would suck but here we are at the next toll 344 straight up the gut to where that guy was putting out I'm thinking Explorer is my line just kind of hyzer flip it through this Gap and have it finished back towards the basket I will try River as well and a little bit more hyzer just a little bit more straight shot this is a pretty tight line I would think a Thunderbird but I think it's gonna be between these two for sure just like that honestly a little bit too much speed too much fate I mean oh yeah just skipped down that Hill I think the river might remedy that because it's a little glidier and got less finish okay oh yeah River for sure look how straight that disc is all right good to know gosh I like that you don't have to throw it hard it goes far and straight and that's one of the things I've really been realizing recently has been playing like I've been playing out 960 to sculpt these last couple weekends this isn't great by any means but I'm pretty proud of it for the time being how my minimum scores have improved and one thing that's really helped that is focusing on how my disc is finishing towards the ground not just how it flies not just hitting the Gap but hitting the Gap and having the Finish because those both hit the Gap pretty much identically but the Explorer being a beaten overstable disc goes left at the very end whereas the river even though it's relatively new negative one one it doesn't have a lot of finish so it's going to finish straight and push up to the basket and I think I probably have 15 feet with my River maybe about 45 with the Explorer even though they both are pretty much the same distance River though 20 feet honestly I could throw it harder I was trying to not throw it too hard because I didn't want to push it past the basket it would be good to practice from Beyond this training wall just in case I honestly don't mind putting up from there so I'm not going to be too worried about pushing it past the basket so as long as I hit the scap I got 60 feet to stay inside the circle this is also another position where I might be putting from so I do want to get some putts in up in the basket from down here ah just off the cage there it is good part all right our basket straight ahead of us here it is 302 we are going uphill which is probably why it feels like it's more than that so I'm gonna try how my Explorer works my emac truth and my beaten Thunderbird the mectruth I think is enough disc espec when I throw it on big hyzer flip line to finish towards the basket but the Explorer does have a good finish as well I think emac 2 is going to be the play oh or throw it that's the other problem I'm having to throw that closer to full power which similar to the front nine I was talking about how I could either throw that disc or a Putter and that's just easier to throw so I threw that I'm gonna try to explore now I don't think I'll spray it as much better line it's a little far though so I think trying just the straight hyzer with a Thunderbird get through that and we're oh that's honestly sure all right it's definitely Fairway hole because I could get mid there but my body doesn't want to we're gonna try a Vader there it is that's the shot all right I knew those evaders on the back or something I do think that this tournament I'm gonna play hopefully better because I've been playing some tournaments getting practice in there but I also have this practice in so I know hey this looks like an emac jerusal we gotta juice it and there's enough trees on the side they spray it too much you're screwed so throw a fairway but then throw my Thunderbirds didn't like that didn't like my Explorer was too flippy that evader perfect level of stability so I'm gonna be able to practice all that and figure that out before the tournament instead of during all right rain is coming out so unfortunately I don't have a super nice camera that I can keep out in the rain I'm honestly probably gonna stop practicing and go back and start editing this and then get out and Putt and maybe finish this practice round later so the rain kind of stops fast but I didn't want to throw any more because I was already getting pretty tired and luckily one of the skills that I've learned is I just travel and play so much is playing course is relatively blind especially having already gotten kind of practice around in yesterday even though some of them weren't from the right teas I'm not super worried about tomorrow because I have a plan that I can birdie every hole I'm just gonna get some practice putting in later but let's talk about the final bag for the tournament all of this that we practice with is coming out what we're looking at here for kind of putter slots my two zones my Z Zone esp2 just in case I'm not feeling the Toro but I think that this is pretty much gonna be the disc that I rely on then I have my very flippy Pier for turnover shots my stable opto pure and then my two putting Piers I'm also going to throw these down with the mid-ranges so I'm not tempted to take them out they're mid Justice and then the two emac truths and then Fairways got paired down a pretty decent bits I have my River Explorer with the evader right here and then my two Thunderbirds I don't need that they're Thunderbird I'm keeping my overstable ride my kind of middle degree stability Rod I do just need a more overstable disc in general then I have my Three Graces this Grace actually is the same stability pretty much as this Grace except it's actually a little more workable because it's slightly more stable I did end up finding my grace in the pond right after the rain came so that's basically the same thing as my first run Grace and so I don't want to bag both of these and then my overstable grace right here let me know what really overstable distance drivers I should try I think I might be actually getting my hands on the Lone Star Tombstone soon so that might be a really good option for that it's not a lot of discs honestly compared to what I'm used to throwing I don't think I need that many I'm really excited for tomorrow I'm gonna get some practice putting in I'll post round Recaps for round one and two with any of the footage I'm able to shoot still trying to shoot that thousand rated round as you can see my plan for the last tournament how I was going to do that here and why I'm deciding to play ma1 down here instead of staying in ma2 even though I've only been playing eight months see you soon
