2018 Oklahoma Open | RD2, F9, MPO | McMahon, Barsby, Tillman, Why, Lawson

The 2018 Oklahoma Open features a thrilling second round of disc golf action, sponsored by Discmania and Champion Discs. Gabriel Dow and Bobby Cox break down the card, highlighting top players like Eagle McMahon, Richard White, Bo Bartlett, Clayton Riddle, and Greg "Beef" Barsby. The par-3 hole at 284 feet poses a challenge with trees down the fairway, but the experts agree it's a great opportunity to showcase technique, particularly with late-turning shots or controlled forehands. McMahon, currently tied for the highest rated player in the world, is likely throwing an MD-3, while Bartlett showcases his expertise with death throws. The event also features Greg "Beef" Barsby, the current world champion from Grass Valley, California, bringing a high level of competition to the field.
