All right, we're here Bedrock Creek in Kansas City. I'll be breaking down what I think about when I see a disc golf hole, especially here on the pro tour. So, I'm going to go over all the things that I'm thinking about whether it's out of bounds, maybe there's some wind, and specific landing zones that I'm trying to hit whenever I'm playing these holes. And it's going to change based off the conditions. So, we're going to play three holes here today and I'm going to tell you guys what I think about and what my disc selection will be like. All right, so here on hole one, about 600-ft par four, you can see the basket way in the distance there. But I have a couple of different options. I have some water short. I can try to drive the green. Um there's a back slope behind it, so it's going to fall away. Or there's that second landing zone right there short, about 500 ft, which I can throw to and I can chip up for my birdie. Or there's an even shorter left landing zone. I've played to all three before. It's always dependent on the conditions. If we show the flags right here, we have a little bit of a left-to-right tailwind. So, when I throw the disc on this angle right here, it's going to want to carry it further. If I have it on a hyzer angle, it's going to beat it down and not allow it to fade as far left and also it's going to lose distance. Okay, so with this scenario right now, I'm probably just going to go for the green and try to get the eagle look. And if not, I'm going to want to miss a little bit left of the basket because that's the more open area. Too far right's going to be OB in the water. So, here, I'm going to throw it, try to get it pretty close to the basket, and just my only goal here is clear the water. So, going long, not a problem. You have to know it on shots like this. So, okay, something crazy happened with the first shot, so we're throwing another one. Got a nice wind right now, so have to turn turn it here a little bit. And if anything, it's going to finish...
