All right, we're here. Longest hold challenge here at Champions Cup New London Tech Disc Golf Course. I got Barer Harper Thompson in the house. This is first appearance on the channel, I believe. And this one is a doozy. I'm not sure how far this hole is. It's probably close to a mile. And uh yeah, I'll explain it right here. All right, so we are in course hole one, which is the furthest corner. And the furthest basket's going to be course hole nine, which is a par five in the back there. So, what we're going to do is we're going to play down Hole One's fairway to Hole One's basket, pitch over to 18's Tapad. It's across a little bit of a creek. Then, we're going to make our way towards 17's basket and play down 17's fairway. We're then going to pitch over to 16's Tapad. And behind 16's teapad, none of these trees exist anymore. So, we're going to just throw over the open field all the way to hole nine's teapad, which will probably take us four throws. We'll play down normal hole nine, which is already a par five to that basket. And this will be a par 18 we have calculated. So, should be a crazy hole. We'll update you guys as we go.
