ARP | 2025 Climo Open at Big Rip X | R2B9 | Schultz : Bates : Kiep : Samson | Lead Card

The 2025 Climo Open at Big Rib X is back in action, and we're diving into the challenging back half of the course. Ledgestone and Discmania's support made this tournament possible, and Eagle's Landing is hosting some thrilling competition. Leaderboard leader Silas Schultz is on top with a score of 14, closely followed by Austin Bates, Jamie Keith, and Luke Samson. The chase card players are making their move, trying to catch up. The course features both the easiest and most difficult holes, and players are using various techniques to navigate them. Wide hyzer shots on the right side or low routes underneath the tree line are being employed to reach the pin. Silas Schultz's strategy of going low has paid off today, while Luke Samson is combining both approaches. The video showcases the action at hole 10, a par three with obstacles and wind factors that can significantly impact the shot.

[music] >> Welcome back to continuing action of the 2025 Climo Open at Big Rib X. Big thank you to our [music] partners at Ledgestone and Discmania for making this tournament possible. We're back out here at Eagle's Landing getting ready [music] to take on the back half of the course. A back half that we saw really challenge the feature card yesterday. So [music] far though, our leaderboard that these guys were kind of cruising through the front nine, but Conrad, the back nine has some teeth. Yeah, the back nine oddly enough has some of the easiest holes [music] as well as some of the most difficult holes on the course. We see Silas [music] Schultz here leading the way with 14 down with Austin Bates, Jamie Keith, and Luke Samson closely in tow. We have a few players from the chase card trying to [music] make a bid at the back. Yeah, and starting things off here, we're going to jump into hole 10, a par three coming in at 417 [music] ft teeing off from the top of this spine here. The wind always kind of a factor. Today's been relatively calm, [music] but you never know when it can spike up around this area here. You're going to see players taking either wide hyzer at the right hand side [music] banking back to the left around this big tree. You also see some players going kind of underneath the low ceiling here and trying to get some skip on this pine straw dragging it up [music] towards the actual pin. There is OB right and OB long on this pin as we [music] saw Silas Williams finding OB during round one going long on this one. Silas Schultz going the low route today after going wide right the first day. Woah. He got a lot of action there. Landed well before the green and skipped up, went past the basket, almost threatened OB, but he has a putt. Luke looks like he's doing a combo of both going low and a hyzer route. Oh. Got a little kiss off the tree. Stopped his upward movement up the hill. This is more of what we saw during round one. Mhm. Good result there. See what Austin's drawing up here. Almost look like he's doing a combination of both. Yeah. And it works out. Yeah, I guess...
