2023 POLECAT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP | Back 9 | Hanson, Korver, Proctor, Scoggins, Phelan

The 2023 Polecat World Championship is back on track as the players take on the final nine holes of the course. Joining CEO and founder Harper Alexander are experts in polecat throwing, discussing strategy and technique for a strong finish. The front nine showed promising scores from James with three-under-par, despite a few missed putts, while Derek and O brought their A-game to the table. As they head into the back nine, viewers can expect insights on how to navigate the course's challenging layout and what it takes to shoot under par. The focus shifts to Nick's impressive "Boomer pull cat shot" that demonstrated his skill and precision. Harper Alexander breaks down the key elements of this throw, including the technique required to hit a precise 302-foot distance with a slight uphill slope. Meanwhile, Proctor showcases his expertise on hole number 11, where he nearly landed a putt despite the presence of a "safety net" tree behind the pin.
