Amsterdam - Disc Golf Show Episode 55

It's of lesser quality then usual, but at least I was able to get it!   Brought to you in part by Final 9 Sports, with two locations, Orangevale - Shady Oaks & Rocklin - Johnson Springview Park, and DUDE Clothing!   Hello and welcome to the Disc Golf Show Episode 55   Today is Sunday, Jan 7th.   And our guest host is a long time friend of the show, the one and only, Dean Schaub!

These also happen to be the more aggressive players that most often go for birdie or bogey.   Anthony Barela (34%) had the second fewest pars (after Eagle at 33%). Anthony was also #1 for Parked and Circle 1 in Regulation!   This goes to show you that there is a give and take for being aggressive and the overall outcome of your game, as Barela finished the 2017 DGPT in 43rd, while Eagle finished in 15th.   Also, Ricky Wysocki who finished in 1st for the DGPT had 36% Pars, and Paul McBeth who took 2nd also had 36% Pars.   Check out more 2017 DGPT stats at: https://udisclive.com/stats   If you would like to leave a comment, or question for the show, please send your emails to [email protected], leave us a comment on our facebook or twitter, or call us at 916-409-6656 and leave us a message, it might get played during the show!
