Can we beat Gannon's course record?!

Disc golf enthusiast Cal takes on the formidable challenge of breaking Gannon Burr’s impressive course record of minus 16. Playing a best-shot triple with teammate Paula, Cal aims to match the performance Gannon delivered during a previous visit that left such a lasting impression. The competition takes place at Heiser, a track known for its demanding layout and consistent wind conditions. Cal experiments with new disc technology, specifically testing the Mass Approach, a relatively new overstable driver designed with a high parting line and less glide. This disc is compared to the Entropy, offering a unique flight profile that Cal hopes will provide an edge on key holes. Throughout the round, the duo navigates various obstacles, including long drives over 400 meters and tricky uphill shots. Paula delivers early birdies, setting a high pace, while Cal counters with precise approach shots and powerful forehands. The video captures the dynamic banter and competitive spirit as they traverse the course, highlighting specific techniques like the Gyro Palooa release style. Viewers get an inside look at disc selection strategies and real-time adjustments to weather conditions. This engaging match serves as both a showcase of advanced disc golf skills and a thrilling race against a previously unbeatable benchmark, making it a must-watch for fans of the sport.
