Watch the round two back nine coverage of the 2022 Texas State Disc Golf Championship presented by Latitude 64, the third stop of the Disc Golf Pro Tour, held at the brand new Thorn course in Tyler, Texas. Mitch Phillips and Hayden Ricard provide commentary on the front nine scores, where Ricky Smothers impressed with a five under par score, while others struggled slightly. As they move into the back nine, the competition heats up, with Calvin and Ricky still tied for fourth place. The duo discusses the challenges of hole 10, a tricky par 3 with an obstructive tree blocking the shot line and a blind approach off the tee. They analyze player mistakes and offer insights on how to navigate these types of holes, particularly in new courses where trees may change over time.
