what's up everybody we are back at you with some more disc-off coverage for your winter enjoyment my name is Gabriel down I'm here with Bobby Cox how's it going everyone this is the third annual First Capital Classic we've got a pretty cool cart for you we got Andrew Smith and Benny David Davis both out of Oklahoma City hotel men and breadhead minute local awesome yeah filming a couple of times awesome to watch really good player hole one is gonna be a part three and unfortunately we didn't have official distances on the holes for you guys but let's have to guesstimate but this hole is pretty much gonna be a forehand play yeah that's a mando Pole you gotta go left of the mando and a couple of small trees in front of basket but they're pretty easy to avoid here we got Andrew shake up a bit yeah maybe got a little more turn on the dis and he wanted but he's up there it's just a little bit left maybe Zuko's edge that's looking pretty good didn't really get that great escape yeah kind of caught a weird skip on that uphill here we got bill Tilghman oh yeah it's looking really good ooh and that is part here we got Brett onestly I just turned over may the land of them clean lost I'm gonna turn something over midrange oh yeah that's perfect Brett then we'll turn over not quite getting the turn out of it but he's up there should be able to make that putt here's Benny shut up Benny we actually filmed a tournament Oklahoma City a while back and he let us stay in his backyard for the weekend shoutout to Benny great guys that does it for that but yeah you weren't there for that but mm-hmm just right at good height on it though and this is really a birdie or Die kind of course and this little side shot here was actually Kelson Griffith he threw an ace yeah Jorge an ace on hole two is first though the day pretty insane that is a way to start you around right there yeah that'd make me you pretty relaxed for the rest of the round yeah oh yeah knowing you're walking away with some kind of money yeah place has got a place it quite easy birdie Oh as well you know those are some great drives especially that Clayton's turnover shot it's a really tough shot to do all right that's an unfortunate bogey to start off with all right on the whole - this is a part of three the most common route is the forehand over the road and that road is OB or if you're not gonna do that it's probably be the backhand route the middle got to keep it low low ceiling and yeah yeah that right gets a little bit more risky cuz it's a really low ceiling for sure kind of cool how the trees line up the fairway yeah gives a cool look yeah and both on some really over stable and it's looking perfect just a little flex line ooh look like a mighty car nasty roll yeah my roll way a little bit look here we got Clayton doing that for hand as well looks like he might have started off just a little bit but they're all running away it looks like yeah and still have a look at it and that OB does wrap around the basket right there manger is going with the standstill we got Benny oh looks like you yanked it a little bit I need to swing fast oh yeah that's perfect the scariest one end up being the best yeah didn't catch that roll off that hill behind the basket and breasts going with the backhand and that thing was kind going up and down headland had a good line but like I said this feeling is just really low there and there's also like bunch of roots and rocks on the ground too so you know I promise with a nice slide up to the basket we got clean from about 25 mm-hm is just low yeah this first couple putts of the rounder was pretty difficult Andrew just a little bit high there we go there's a bird go with the gray start starting off two down yep and I actually wasn't here for this tournament yeah where were you out sir I was I was at the big 12 championship boomer sooner baby boomer sooner yeah hopefully they can pull off that win playing Bama but I'm gonna be tough yeah I'll be real tough but we'll see we be him last time we played him so that's all that matters yeah that Jumbotron at the Dallas Stadium from the 20s yeah it's ridiculous when I walked in that was the first thing like you can't miss it yeah it's hard it's hard to watch the game you're you're there to see you end up catching yourself stare at the jumbotron alright but yeah that was that was awesome all right hole three this is also part three is my prime my favorite hole out here I've got to get past these trees the basket is down up into the left down by that little pond and yeah you really just trying to throw something fairly over stable at it swing left and avoid these trees there's a lot of them yeah but that's off the tee is pretty scary it looks like yeah it's very hard to get parked but it's not you know it's not impossible well is he going mid-range yeah mid-range probably is trying to scoot down be a rock that'll work yeah and that's really all you need just get it oh that little drop-off and you're probably gonna be in fighting Ranch that might have been a good kick it was a great kick it slowed it down but it put it in the right direction yeah and that's actually gonna be only like 3540 out here we got Benny and he's playing a little bit wider yeah and that's the common thing on the sole you got Bret that looks way too hot yeah that's - I still go and they'll squeak through though yeah holy crap wow I can't believe it got that boy he's gonna have a nice little downhill putt it's gonna be scary here we got Clayton kind of flipping something up yeah and you see it left a little bit no what good things just kind of laying up there yeah you can't run that maybe it's like tools left down by one or something but also get bad by Brett complaint unless no no part of that but yeah blending I was the wind it wasn't like that crazy it was pretty cold I mean is your normal Oklahoma Gus yeah they get up to the 1520 sometimes randomly yeah it was pretty calm yes complaining about upon this one no not at all there's no pars on it really ideal on this course yeah you need the birdies always cleaning up the par as well silky smooth putt a star par yeah I think so alright we're on to hole for this is a par 3 a little shorty most people would be playing just the touch Heiser with the putter or a mid-range you really want to be careful about skipping too far left because there's a big drop-off there and if you get on there's a lot of stuff in the way and it's not gonna be easy to salvage a to so you definitely want to keep it a little bit wider yeah and there's a sidewalk kind of where post throwing up you should be good yeah right there that's OB as well and that's another that needs to stop okay that's good yeah and thrown driver is pretty risky because you don't want that big skip into that creek down there yeah don't think we'll be seeing anyone in the open field throw driver though now well you know Randy likes it throws sex and Farber's sometimes from like 240 but you got away spike if you yeah look nice Oh Oh No sit down okay that'll work and that little bush in front of the basket that's really like the only thing that's in your line they need to avoid this is looking nice as well yeah yeah oh yeah oh yeah perfect caught a little rocker root or something there that helped him out a lot if you guys are in the Guthrie area you guys really need to check out this course it is so awesome Clayton was throwing the local route there but it looked like he caught a tree it's gonna be well short of the basket I'm gonna have to lay up and take his three and that's gotta be frustrating yeah why the easiest hole out here it's just hi look like you might have had that tree to contend with ooh yes in the bow that's that's surprising miss I'm gonna take an unfortunate par there you brought it to get birdie there yep and Binion with an unfortunate part as well yeah this is definitely Muscat out here yep all right Andrew and Brett with the birdies they're gonna be stealing the box here we are on the hole 5 this is a par 3 we are actually playing to a different basket than what we're showing here on the drone footage they moved the baskets between rounds and so right here we're Bobby standing and the orange is where they are playing - so you're looking at a forehand all the way down just want to keep it straight for a little bit and then have it crash right yeah even just something does that straight is ok - just don't want to be in the woods you can get like two pin-high you'll have an open look to the basket yeah if you have a big foreign that can go fairly straight and just finish right that's preferred both and go with that backhand route and that Sidewalk does play OB yes left there which isn't too much to think about with a shot that's going right see now is the DES right shot and he has a look from there that'll work here we got Benny staying still forehand now you can't yanked it a little bit but it's working the right way yeah yeah that'll work that'll work kind of squeaks through some trees there yeah I don't know if that was the preferred line but it worked out really well this is looking really nice she's kind of a really tricky putt but he's up there and you're having to just tell forehand and that's well done totally obstructed for Brett yeah he's not looking at a fun putt good little out here we got Bo from I'd say probably sixty pretty far Wow puts him at three down great putt by Bo I felt every time we film him he has one or two of those every single time the Bigfoots yeah oh yeah that's what it takes to hang with the big guys yeah exactly Clayton with the really awful look as well if all this treason one oh that was a little old gap Wow great puck Clayton awesome and I'll drop him under par I'm typing in a thirty looks like yes sir yeah and a lot of this course is just distant distance control and keeping it in bounds because already so beyond most of the holes mm-hmm yeah you keep in bounds if you're putting good you're gonna be put up with really ascore yep all right you're on the hole six par three it's super easy you're probably about 270 feet ish yeah there is a opie behind the basket if you see that metal real they're kind of continuing off that real there is a painted line so you do have to be wary of that but I mean aside from that you're just throwing a dead straight putter shot yeah let's see you can dunk the straightest pretty much all it comes down to Oh sawed his off but he's still gonna have a look yeah that's the thing even a bash on this hole is a birdie bull mm-hmm doing this shot perfect up we got an true that's looking money looking really nice yeah that is in the bullseye and we can run yeah he used to get left oh that was kind of scary and Benny really likes those standstills I think he probably don't know yeah I used to you needing that leak through there kind of helps you work on your form oh for sure especially on a course like this where you really don't need a whole lot yeah exactly oh just right Wow looks like the head wind kind of caught that one yeah it rose up quite a bit Benny going under par good burden Bret with the good bird as well looks like everyone's under par is go yeah you're shooting yourself in the foot if you're not getting a birdie on this one absolutely oh man stay in there oh it's happening for three oh my goodness I have mommy alive got that happened he's gonna be taking a four here oh and that almost bounced back for fun and as a frustration tapping yeah we have Clayton Clayton for par yeah it's definitely getting windy look at least behind them yeah they're kind of getting more in there that open all right hole seven par three this one's pretty much a dead straight shot you can throw a flex forehand my sister summers you might see some people go over the top of the big Heiser we'll just see what these guys do though yes kind I just like a weird hole like we step on the tee box you really don't know what the throw yet but yeah it looks like Andrews going with the Flex forehand kind of a tricky hole yeah it really is that's looking nice yeah don't have a putt you do kind of want to be careful of going deep too because there's some pretty thick woods right behind the basket and thorns trust me on that yeah just flying like a mint hinge that'll work be about circles edge there into me those flex forehand lines are like the hardest shots at there oh yeah they're pretty touchy yeah this is looking just a little deep yeah that actually landed on like that top level where those people are standing for the next hole okay so very downhill putt yeah turn something clean is so good at those flip up the flight to dead straight shots mm-hmm and he's gonna be right there well not right there but I'll have a putt you know but also really good at those shots yeah oh yeah Oh kick off the branch oh that's perfect that's like ten minute yeah let this happen let's see if Clayton can salvage this bird in just slow it's a good bid someone's gotta make one everyone's getting close I'm counting on Bo to make his this is kind of a tricky putt he's had having to straddle out we've got this tree right in front of him he's gonna hold gallery because this is a backup hole dad said Oh dead center chains and that is unfortunate I wonder if that happen because it was a downhill putt like when it hits the change on the way yeah kind of catches that like groove and the chain or says that wasn't too hard or I mean it was right down the middle - that's a good putt by Andrew yeah this next hole is one of the few holes where you can really try to crush a disc I wanted a few out here yeah yeah it's a little tap-in little not Redemption but nice get this - after that full we're on the easiest hole oh yeah yeah you gotta follow up something like that with the - you have to for your mental game's sake yeah just wipe it out get out you may immediately all right on the hole eight this is a par three probably roughly 14 for 15 ish but it's pretty much your standard hyzer most people would be aiming towards this tree right in the center of the fairway want it to Heiser right before it so you can get to the basket and it is a crush to get a hyzer all the way there so you might see some of these guys laying up yeah and there was a head win on this hole so you really gotta get something over stable so you don't crash into that tree this is looking nice as long as it doesn't turn over you up yeah I kind of clip the tree but it didn't slow down too much that's kind of a scary putt there cuz the elevated basket we've got Andrew how he kind of rolled his wrist little bit as like it's straight in the barn hopefully yeah hey holders have to lay up for a three we got Bret that's looking really nice he's taking the the straighter approach but that'll work yes just that's one of the bunch so far and that stable thing is definitely stable I think came out with like a a knee yeah oh my god yeah you go way up there yeah that'll work it's still not as close as you want to be on that basket and claims ripping this trying to oh yeah he's gonna wait I lift it up a little flat and look at this Josh roll up around the basket it might be up on that little step no kidding that's coming how hot yeah that was a laser I mean you want to be like touching that like those bricks oh yeah you don't want any kind of putt yep and that's just not worth it to run it and have it just cruise past into those bushes yeah absolutely he's gonna have to tap into for injuries not I'm he's dreading this putt there you go and one else just right here touching the concrete tapping in for par and people need start making a move on beau he's starting to kind of run away with this thing yep Clayton with an awesome birdie yeah that's a that's a bonus bird on this field oh absolutely all right we are on to the last hold front nine this is actually probably the easiest hole on the course yeah definitely the shortest yeah it's just a dead straight flutter shot or you could hyzer it in there pretty much play however you want it there is OB on the right side which isn't too dangerous but yeah pretty easy hole yeah if you want to be wary of that drop off to the left of the basket as well yeah that's that's really the only danger here the OB is it's pretty hard to reach though be on the right side but you definitely need to land soft and stay on the right side of the basket mm-hmm and that looks perfect yep that's gonna roll up right next to it I notice that there's a lot of roll ways on the scores yeah I know if it's like the hard ground in the winter time or definitely yeah that's definite and there's part about elevation change on this course for an Oklahoma course especially cuz we had a freeze right before this to so the ground was just all that mud and dirt were just frozen yeah well that's gonna be deep in the west side of Oklahoma the red clay everywhere yeah and that's that's way short yeah it does not go shallot that's yeah we can do on this hole yeah it leaves a really scary putt as well oh just low make sure you guys check us out oh that's a great pot by Clayton there make sure you guys check us out on Facebook and Instagram for updates on terminus we're gonna be playing or filming yeah we got a lot of stuff lined up I think for next season yeah we do very excited about that and Brett with a good little putt yeah nice Burton kind of had awkward footing yeah those were always scary cuz you're not used to you don't practice it yeah that's that's what it is it's like a brand new thing to you you're learning it as you go yep all right that is gonna conclude the front nine of the third annual First Capital Classic low Tillman's ahead of everybody at four down Clayton Lawson one behind at three Dani Davis and Brett Ellsbury I had a two down and then Andrew one behind them so a pretty close field but be sure to tune in for the back nine thanks for watching everybody yeah we'll see you guys soon go through
