just pulled up crazy hair and all to the first round of the Beaver State fling presented by Inova it is my last disc go prot event of the year unfortunately I'm going give it a secret from you guys that I'm going to let you in on probably pretty soon after this video which is the main reason why I'm not going to be able to play anymore it's exciting thing but it does think for like the disc golf side of things I'm excited to putt today I've been working on it a little bit not sure if it's competition ready but I'm believing that it is and I think I'm going to make a lot of puss today I think I'm going to throw the disc well and I know I can throw myself in 2,000 rated route now at these courses they're so hard that I just don't need to like mess up crazy and I'm doing that and I've been keeping it in in bounds and keeping it safe so if we can put the disc in the pket we can have some good rounds and the stretch goal for this week is to cash you know what that's going to be the main thing I te off at 11:20 today and then hopefully we move a oury time every day but yeah I'm just going to put the goal at Cash of course I want to play good rounds but let's see if we can we can work through it make it happen one stinky thing is during that AB video that I filmed I don't know if it's out yet or not someone ran over one of my Putters so I have two sets of Putters I got to figure out if I can putt with these already the Dome has been dropping which has been really nice I don't think it really matters I think these honestly help me commit more cuz I feel like they're more over stable even if they're not quite the name of the game this week is just commit shots putts up shots forehand everything it's literally just going to be about trusting that I'm as good as I am now I've been struggling with that a lot I've been able to execute shots and I've been surprising myself which I shouldn't be we are going to bring out the cart today there's a couple spots we're going to have to break it down unfortunately but pretty nice to have not a sponsor but I do have an affiliate link if you want you want to snag some snag some don't snag some snag one you only need one card the only other unfortunate thing is yesterday when I was playing I didn't realize but on my tripod my phone part fell off I don't know where I went everything else I think we should be pretty money the only other change is AB gave me a Zone yesterday so this is in the bag for sure it feels really good slight puddle top um it's literally just all going to be about commitment I'm going to go get warm feel ready I'm excited I'm really excited this is a really hard course but I'm going to still focus on scoring but keeping it safe most importantly I've been really good at managing rounds and really bad at scoring so we're going to try to score a little bit this week let's cash let's try that'd be a great confidence boost from the in next year knowing how much training I still have left to come dude you get your claw Breer back bro yeah I know you guys did something to it didn't do anything to it bro well look it wasn't all beat up now it's all beat up look the same to me bro to me said it was yeah it's super I mean it's a roller for me honestly you ready bro 13 down maybe I think you might do that buddy every understands at least get started come on come on oh my break there I threw I thought was a perfect up shot to park it and just hit either that tree or the skinny tree next to it and kick me into 35t range uncommitted putt so I could have made it but first Boogie no worries 11 so I've not been throwing my H ran well literally this whole week anheiser have been hard with it I don't really quite know what's going on I think it's probably cumulative fatigue and not really recovering kind of my torso and the way that I'm throwing but I put in time out today I can't throw it again I just got to throw my do Amper a little tone down cuz I've been throwing that thing so good and I I was like on the tea with both of them and I was like I think I'm going to throw you all today and I shanked it a tree High what have gone be if it wasn't for the tree able to take the part which is fine but that's a hole that you really want so try not think about it like that just try to get the next ones haven't had a circle one put yet this one Circle two well I guess technically two cuz one of them was like around the TR hole one but from 50 ft just a pitch up 0 for zero Circle 1 x cuz everything else has been in the Bull's Eye let's keep it that way but like this time for birdie instead of par and bogey maybe just a thought m great shot Anthony so walking down H 15 I think I just put a drive down in the middle which is just what I want nothing crazy just put it in the middle of a fairway chip up take a four ideally I did just go birdie bogey unfortunately I got back to but I got to one under and then I got back to even unfortunately with that Boogie but it was really tough scramble kind of dumb decision off the tea but we'll learn try not to get any numbers in my head just continue to play and see what I can do B wait dude thank you for today he filmed the last couple holes was just chilling the whole round watching the UPS in the downs and then he started filming then I threw a perfect shot so that's all I need that's that's all I need to know he's not even going to be here the next couple days so hopefully I cannot suck anything you need to say no that's it all right finish up my one down I'm not sure what that's rated I guess a th000 andish maybe a little more who knows look's really good he shot the seven I tied PR Allan this boy about to go out we're just stalking again at this point all right before I even watch my started my round I had to go and watch cuz Nate dos just teed off I didn't get my phone up in time but I was able to see him tea off first time in like seven years Legend I don't even like I'm too new to the sport I just got started that I didn't even like I don't know a lot about him but then I saw PA MC Beth Paul uberry Ricky wasaki and uh now carrot about to go off on the main feature so that'll be a blast probably going to head out but got to see what this rating is and kind of where I'm placed I'm hoping I'm a couple off the cash if I'm not in it but I doubt I'm in it what's up boy it's okay you excited one Down's all right time to win no they is win I guess think so man roll can't get it out your back too tight was too weak bro n it's going to be a sick feature card I can't wait to watch it on coverage when I get home slightly over 1,000 I think it could be anywhere from 13 to 2011 when it's all said and done a lot of people still have to come in honestly no one's been on whole 15 for like 15 minutes so bir would have a Feld day with that but I'm in 47s right now I don't think I'll be that high after everybody else comes in cuz I got a lot of holes to play but it's not like the easiest course I would hope to be 50th or 60th let's go it's literally the freaking goat dude yeah I mean he's on a c with a goat yeah you're right yeah I don't know man I think he is the goat look at the center it's going in dude that's literally the goat there's no way I beat him this we you're gonna beat him C Zer chance zero chance just got here for round two I'm super excited actually I'm a little got a lot of time to warm up actually got a little over an hour snack some coffee not from Stumptown but shout out Stumptown there's like a place on the way from my Airbnb I'm sting Two Strokes out of the cash um most doable it's been on tour so far and I Hade a lot of silliness that I could have been in that cash if I didn't do the silliness so today I'm honestly I'm feeling a little more aggressive in My overall game plan I feel like I've I'm just not trust myself and yesterday every shot that I trusted myself I threw really well I I can't remember a shot or a putt that I trust to myself that I didn't do well and well maybe the one that's no cuz that one I had questions in the bushes that was like 30 ft for saving aart and I missed it and took a Bo at 13 or 14 but everyone that I trust myself I threw and played very very well so today I'm feel confident so I'm going to try to harness that keeping the putters that I switched to just for putting these guys um the newer jelly being stamped cuz the Dome has dropped a little bit they're like really nice they're decent stability and I just can't trust thiss that have been run over and so actually for that we're going to retire one and give it the old salute you could maybe see at the bottom here how the bottom looks pretty regular and then this one's got like this waviness over here SAR it was run over by a tire so this one's by buddy I'll still be up practice putting with it but this one will be in the bag for like upshot and maybe like longer Circle two bids where I don't want as much fade just depending on how I want to put it we'll see we'll keep it in the bag for now and that way I'll have three to warm up with I'm pump man I'm excited um I think that a lot of the bogeys I took were cuz I was playing scared disc golf and if I can find a way to harness this energy that I have right now where I'm not scared and play not scared for the whole day I think I can get in the cut line in The Cash Line I mean and uh and finish strong for this tournament two rounds left I'm really excited it's just it's all about minimizing Bogies out here I will find the birdies I proved that to myself yesterday attack those screens get aggressive and trust myself on the putt they warming up the putter I realized for the last however long I was like oh I need to be in a stagger stance and I would close off my body and now I'm just squaring up the Target and it's feeling more confident I don't know if it's the perfect way to do it obviously people put different ways but I'm going I mean I squared up and that's what I did yesterday and it felt good so feel good about today feel like I got a chance to shred I don't like that putting that out in the world because then I feel like I can get embarrassed by it but even if I do that's how I feel right now I'm excited told Jake who were playing with Jake Brown we're going to shred he's like going to ex my game plan which is just take every shot as it comes good game plan better stay in the moment with his game plan and just trust that the result of shredding is going to come warmed up throw feels pretty nice pot started waning and I got the confidence back we're ready to roll I think I'm not even going to say I got to put one in the heart to start it I'm just going to walk up to every putt confident and if I miss him that's fine I'll walk up to the next one confident you playing well today no am I going to play well yeah probably not why you say that bro you're going to play well cuz that's usually the trend now n you got it today's a day we'll see today a day feeling good today's a new day I'm feeling pretty good A little breezier today so you never know how it's good we got to run through the game plan again yeah what's the game plan game plan all right the game plan is to just live right here in my process it's a it's a stone house that I've built Brick by Brick over the last few seasons what's the foundation you built it on you know out of brick would you build it on I I built it on uh not tying yourself to the result of the shot but just living with every shot like can you get that at Home Depot no okay wonder if for me uh-huh oh yeah treat good through it through yeah buddy just missed whole three again or whole four dang it uh missed a birdie putt from 20 ft left side because I'm underc committed that's the only part of the day though everything else is going in and we've been playing pretty good so far let's keep it up just had it first I'm not advocating to do this please don't but the person who did this it's totally cool but I got out of the bathroom and uh because there's like a mix of holes like it could be also where the players walk in someone ask for a signature so signed my Sphinx U buy one and then I went through a pretty good shot so if you're that person you can ask for signatures anytime cuz I'm like just outside the Bulls that's pretty cool though first time signing something during the run I think at least at the pro tour maybe I did one locally before finished up shout out Jake Brown for the killer around anything you want to tell people um I don't know I told you guys I was just going to stay in my process today and I feel like I did a good job of that really I didn't throw a shot maybe over 400 feet all day but just kind of chipped around and made some putts it's kind of killer though five down you made a lot of circle two putts dude yeah two steppers that's key out here a lot of like 45 Footers appreciate it good play with have fun getting here later yeah a little disappointing honestly with the two down um I ended up whole I got out of whole 14 four under par and then I got to 15 and through just my game plan of just get a four and then I saw Dustin Keegan who is like roller God one of the best roller throws ever oh that's nice no chalk anymore um he ends up throwing a roller to Circle one and I'm like I got a roller I could try this and I was debating I was like I was like I'm playing really well like I'll try it like we'll see um and I'll probably be able to get up and down and then I shanked it into the woods right I should have been able to get up and down from there but hit a bad tree then I had a little bit of a bad break instead of being 20 ft I was about 45 missed that and uh tapped in a six so I got gave away the two birdies I literally just got in the two holes prior by parking them both and then I birdied the next hole Bogi 17 from 20 ft I missed the putt unfortunately my only that was two that was my second Circle one miss and then I ended up uh tapping out on 18 for a par after throwing almost shot that ended up being just pitched around and then got my two under for the round so I don't think I'm honestly going to move up almost at all uh depends on how the course is playing there's a little more wins today it's a little different but man the course is scoring I got eight birdies seven birdies seven birdies in five boogey Strokes again I just got to clean it up really I mean I can score out here I'm 12 12 birdies like that's fine it's like one Calvin round but overall can't be uh too mad about it we I'll check like ratings and score and stuff and once everyone kind of finalizes and comes in we'll talk about it just ah man I can't I can't finalize these rounds right now but today was a really big confidence Builder I was throwing the disc really well like I was playing I feel like more and more I like belong here in terms of like the lower level of tour like I don't feel like I'm out of place uh score-wise I'm playing with these guys and I'm I'm playing well and not even up to my standard or as good as I could be even close I'm still making a lot of little silly mistakes but I'm still scoring um which is really cool like I'm not out here getting no boogies and uh a bunch bunch bunch of boogies a lot of boogies too many but not as many as I could but overall I'm pretty proud of how late and I'm pretty proud of the round so plenty of time left going shnack some food and uh get on my way final day about to go down I'm excited I am four strokes out of the cash right now three Strokes out of one place out of the cash so it'll be between three or four strokes I need to make up which is a little more than yesterday bad news is I could have done it yesterday bad news also for the real AB is that he is playing with me today so we in 64th something like that so he's going to have a heater today and I'm going to I'm going to match him you know why not um hopefully it plays really really well um gets back in the cash hopefully I can do the same I think that the number is going to be seven or eight that's I'm going to try to do everything like I said to get that out of my head feels a little Breezy but not too bad and the weather is looking incredible so if I can play the way that I have the first two days and just like not bogey then I think we're we're in the money that's really what it's going to take is just being clean I missed a couple putts every day I think I missed two inside the circle every single day last round on the pro tour for this year got some Q Series and some mat TI and then a lot of local stuff hopefully got the rest of the year but I'll be informing you guys about why and what's going on pretty soon not a lot to say just trying to get focused up I'm trying to wake up the body a little bit I need to drink some more water my stomach feels a little upset and typically um for me that just means drinking water and that'll start feel much better in the mornings I know he's going to rock up a little frustrated so it'll be interesting to see kind of what his mentality is during actual tournament time um cuz we did actually shoot Navy squar video that'll be coming out a little bit later um as part of something that I'll tell you about probably about a week or two a little nerve-wracking it's cool because similar to Portland last week I had the pressure of making the cut and missed enough putts I think I think I missed like eight or nine putts and I missed a cup by eight or nine it was cool because I I gave my I put myself in in the position to have the opportunity to play with that kind of pressure and I didn't necessarily think that they that would happen this early on in like my disc golf career um like trying to to play Four Cuts or play for cash on the tour cuz it's getting so hard to cash on the tour and I actually some thoughts about that that I talked with Jake Brown about I'll probably make like maybe a second Channel video or maybe a main Channel video about if I like really if they become finalized and I maybe get some other players opinions on it but um it's going to be interesting to see what happens with the tour over the next few years because cuz cashing is getting so hard and the money when you get that last cash is like not very much experiences and the learnings that I had from last week where I didn't really weight Shi very well I was way over my front foot I was just really nervous focusing on scores if I can take that into this week and I'm playing with a similar pressure I was like more back of the cutline yes or last week than I am today of the cash I believe and I just need to clean up all the silly little mistakes play Within my game plan and be patient yesterday I had a couple instances where I wasn't patient and I really tried to push a couple bad breaks a couple silly mistakes and we could have had a really good round as it stands we could still have that really good round today yeah here you go ho one let's get started a well not proud of how that played out um yeah that's basically all I finished five over so two over the tournament I was one over going into 17 then double double and I just I literally just gave up you know I threw a good t- shot on 17 I thought an okay second shot it flipped way fast and didn't even cross and balance and then threw a b tried to go for the Greet again um and hopefully Landing short and then missed a putt and took a seven and then I just literally just gave up on 18 you know I was three over I could have birdied and I was like let me just try this big fun shot and then I ended up um throwing a good second after going out of bounds I guess third technically hit a tree hit the base and then just took a six so pretty disappointed to myself for how I finished um I'm sure it's like 950 rated 960 rated and I played a lot better than that throughout the the round I just didn't really I had a lot of nerves and I realized I have a lot of nerves finishing these tournaments I I didn't I don't have it when like I'm playing bad like my best rounds come at the end of tournaments when I'm playing like terrible and then my best rounds come the beginning of tournaments when I'm like playing all right and I'm not even playing like great but I just can't finish these tournaments I think the nerves really catch up with me and honestly I was pretty like nervous playing with AB just I had those nerves for him being on the card I kept fighting my way back until 14 I was even then I took a silly bogey on 15 after um fluffed up shot a little bit but I was still 25 ft slightly obstructed missed that put made the comeback or was one over then thre drive that had a bag kick on 16 and got up and down for par I knew I was going to finish over par and I just didn't care at that point um which maybe I should have maybe it's okay that I didn't I don't really know but I got to figure out a way to like finish these tournaments the good news is like these nerves that I've been having last week at Portland and this week both being a couple Strokes outside of the cash and then finishing both tournaments really bad and finishing way below the cash I'm sure I'm like really way out of it now you know just kind of how it is the good news is like those nerves that I had at Waco and DDO were not here for Portland and beaver state so I was able to play good enough to be close to the cash L sniffing it making mistakes and not to not be in it but sniffing it and then these end of these serons has just been terrible I thought today would be a little bit better but the nerves were just there throughout the whole round unlike anything from rounds one and two maybe that was AB maybe that was I don't just the end of the tournament and knowing that I could cash if I played well and uh I'll figure it out it'll be figured out disappointing finish but overall really solid tournament it's my last Pro Tour of the Year you guys figure out why in about a week and uh yeah I know I'm better than I play today I feel like after playing these couple events that I like belong at the bottom part of the tour um but I know I have a lot to work on and so I feel like if I've gotten so much better since the end of last year um and that was like 6 months so now I have another eight or nine months training and my training is even more concerted cuz it's really started to get really good starting in like February so it's really only been four months since I've had really considered good trading and now I have double that time and solid foundation so I think I can get better I just I'm disappointed in what I did today it'll get cleaned up I'm not worried about it but I'm disappointed you today so thanks guys for watching you the best bye
