hello welcome to round two front nine coverage of the silver cup a 2020 disc-off Pro Tour Solar Series event I'm Holly Finley from teman ago and I'm Ellen wood boom also a team head of ax thanks for tuning in we are competing today on the Silver Creek course in Manitowoc Wisconsin we've got Haley king Lisa Vegas Kat merch and page Pierce Haley is currently leading the field with 1-under but everyone is in striking distance here we go hole one it is a wooded shot and maybe my favorite one on the course I love the shot shaping that's required here everyone chooses a little bit different route to the basket you can go flex go sidearm you can take the straight shot and give yourself a circles edge putt I also think it's interesting because everyone is choosing a different disc to throw off the tee I know for me last year I was thrown a Firebird off the tee and it just had too much stability to it so I switched to the side winder just to get a little Heiser stand up and flip in my flick shot and it usually gets up there about half the time I would say nice shot by Hayley King to start off the round Lisa looks like she's throwing a mid hits that nice gap and gets that circles edge put that I mentioned with no tree obstructions in a way I kind of like that placement the best I wonder if anybody's ever considered a roller with a mid or a putter even on this hole I feel like just to avoid the trees it might be an interesting option to say the least cat smells it off as you saw her shot float over to the woods there looks like a putter from Paige trying to hit that straight gap like I said you can really use a variety of discs to get to this first hole just whatever works best for you I'd say being on the right or left of this fairway is going to be your best bet right there in the middle you can see all those Guardian trees you just don't want to be stuck in the middle of those it's kind of hard to get out of them great up shot by Paige lissa gives it a good go...
