I'm the disc golf guy and this is my video blog. I'm here in Brooksville, Florida and I'm joined by Madison Walker. Madison, it was just one short year ago that I think I met you and some people told me to look out for some mad skills of yours. How are those going? Um, they're coming along okay, except for, you know, I have some stuff that I'm going to round out. Uh, so I would say your most prominent shot is your forehand shot. Yes. Now, pretty much my only shot right now. Okay. So, you are working on that. What What would you say uh you feel like you need to improve on the most so you can hang with some of the uh top pros in our sport? Um, I'd like to get some more distance forehand for sure. And then, um, definitely my backhand drive needs some work, but I've been practicing a lot. Been putting in some time. Okay. Now, we are out here at this beautiful course. We saw lots of crazy terrain. Some of you practicing maybe had some issues with some terrain. Maybe not. They might be seeing that. A couple people. Uh, what do you think about this course specifically? What, uh, what jumps out to you? I just really like I'm being from Florida, I like throwing off of the side of tall, anything tall. So, the cliffs are great. Um, really exciting. Um, throwing uphill is always a challenge. I don't really I still haven't really wrapped my head around that. I had some help last year here, but I'm still working on that as well. Now, you have some stiff competition. I know you've been traveling with and hanging out with uh Paige Pierce. Now, I one of the rules I learned many years ago was you shouldn't travel with people that are better than you cuz then they'll beat you. So, why don't you keep her at home or something like that? Now, she came in just for the event, right? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Well, I've been trying to convince her to stay home, but she just tags along everywhere. This should be a long but exciting weekend. What would you say you're most looking forward to? Definitely throwing off the cliffs during the round. Just, you know, a little bit of adrenaline and then um...
