   2. Her OB rate is pretty high in the field of players with a .189 but that just means she doesn't lay up and it seems to be paying of for her
   3. The stats don't lie, she is the top of the field in birdies, fairways hit, parked, circle 1 and circle 2

I want to apologize upfront, the podcast recording glitched and didn't record, however, I was able to strip the audio from the live stream. It's of lesser quality then usual, but at least I was able to get it!

3. You learn your week points, and shots you need to practice

During the 2017 Disc Golf Pro Tour, there were only 6 players that had less than 40% pars. 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.

Hello and welcome to the Disc Golf Show Episode 53

Today is Sunday, Nov 5th.

And our guest host is the man behind McBeth Films… Jon McBeth!

News: USDGC - DGWT Finale Round 1 Jeremy Koling proves why he won last year by leading after the first round at -9 There were a total of 10 eagles during round 1, 3 of them by Kevin Jones Round 2 Apparently there was a slight altercation between Barsby and the spotter for hole 17 His first shot rolled OB, the spotter didn't retrieve his disc before it floated away and Barsby was very irritated Barsby ended shooting a double bogey and at the time was in 1st by 2 strokes Nate Sexton shoots hot round of -9 to take the lead over Koling by one stroke Three way tie for 3rd between Owens, Barsby, and Wysocki, two back of Big Jerm Nate Sexton / AJ Risley tee time mixup AJ was put on the lead card, Sexton on chase card Sexton has the lower PDGA number Duvall stated via DGCR that they had an issue when sorting ties out after round 1. Round 2 tee times were already posted before they found the error and felt it easier to go with already posted tee times Should they have fixed the error or left as is? Round 3 Sexton and Wysocki both shoot a -10 for the Moving Day hot round Nate holds on to 1st place with a 3 stroke lead over Wysocki Round 4 Sexton finally win his first well-deserved Major event and is the new USDGC Champion!

Hall of Fame Classic - National Tour event Winners: Ricky Wysocki and Catrina Allen Wysocki was able to win a playoff between himself, McBeth, and Lizotte in a sudden death playoff. McBeth and Lizotte tied for 2nd

National Tour Points Winners Paige Pierce take the NT points win by 14 points over Catrina Allen McBeth holds onto the NT points win by just 5 points over Wysocki

DGPT Championships presented by Prodigy Paige Pierce was able to add another win to her total for 2017 as well as the DGPT points win As the field shrank down to the final 5 in the men's division, the battle came down to McBeth and Wysocki once again McBeth's drive on hole 18 put him in early trouble from which he wasn't able to recover, leaving him tied with Lizotte for 2nd and giving Wysocki the win and the overall DGPT points win as well We would like to thank our sponsors:

Event praised by Mayor Rosalynn Bliss

Big shoutout to 9 year old Kolby Sanchez for becoming a world champion in just one year of playing disc golf Seeing younger kids get serious about disc golf just increases the hope we have for our beloved sport!

Another shoutout to cancer survivor AJ Carey on becoming the 2017 PDGA Amateur World Champion Getting cancer changed his path from going into the military to getting a sport pedagogy major! Good to see him beat cancer and find disc golf as a way to help get through it all!

What do you think about the payout for the older division such as Masters? https://www.pdga.com/files/2017_pro_m... Should they be bigger just because these are the guys who helped grow disc golf before there was any "money" to be made? Is the payout fine how it is because that's just how things work? The ones in the spotlights get the money, is that right?
