The 2022 Las Vegas Challenge marks the first stop of the disc golf pro tour for the new season, and it's an event not to be missed. The Wild Horse Golf Club in Las Vegas, Nevada, hosted a stacked field featuring top players like Garrett Gentry, Seppo Paju, Chris Dickerson, and Albert Tomlinson. The Infinite Course, one of the shortest on the card, presented unique challenges that required precise throws and strategy. The player bags showcased an array of molds, with Garrett Gentry's selection including newer metal flake discs and a focus on control drivers for windy conditions. Seppo Paju leaned on his experience with the Falcore and H1, while Chris Dickerson brought a mix of mid-range specialists like the Buzz and Drone. Meanwhile, Albert Tomlinson relied heavily on Latitude 64 Opto X discs for their overstable performance. The players' bag changes, disc selection, and strategies will be key to success in this competition, which promises an exciting start to the season.
