hello everyone and welcome back to the back nine coverage of the first round 2017 Idlewild open big Julie commentary I'm Jeremy colon joined with Paul Yubari and this is where the course is going to really start to show us to back nines is brutal it really is I mean it gets tighter the holes get not necessarily longer but tighter and and I don't even know how to explain it it's just very very very difficult par becomes birdie almost on this course on the background and you can see right here starting it's taking the drone quite a bit of time to navigate through the trees you can Majan what it's like if you're a disc this is a very tough uphill 368 probably plays like 420 430 maybes yeah and and for the viewer Greg just late to this absolutely laces or something yep probably it almost as good as you could possibly throw it on that angle because if you want to use 50 feet away so the route that you throw this disc on it's almost pushing how far the disc can actually go on this flight no and that's another really nice shot but just a little bit backdoor ends up catching a tree but making the initial gap is such a huge bonus here I feel like just to be able to get up there and get easy pars is a bonus so absolutely if we're we're hitting this gap it looks a lot smaller when you're sitting on stepping on the tee ready - yeah I got so once you make that first gap you like you said you're happy and anything after that is a bonus and I got the star Thunderbird the big drum start Sunbird here and I just get through that little gap that you missed out on and really getting a putt on this hole is something that I don't I don't even expect that that's such a bonus for me to be we'll be up there in putt for toots it's a and I really gave us a great yeah get him it was just that I knew that if I popped it I could hit those guardian trees and I wanted to try to make it but then I just rushed it was awful yeah it's funny how it actually looks better on camera...
