I Shot Pro-Rated Disc Golf as an Amateur
In this video, I try to shoot a pro-rated round of disc golf at a local B-Tier tournament on my home course - Veterans Park in Arlington, Texas.
I felt confident that I could do it even though I had never come close. My putt was feeling really good and I had the home court advantage since I have played the course so many times. My goal was to shoot 1000 rated disc golf even though I am only rated 930 (vast difference).
I had a ton of fun doing it and want to keep practicing and getting better so that I might be able to play in more tournaments.

The guidelines are clear, 970+ definitely counts as pro rated

Don't invest in round ratings. I watched locals from a course back home putting up 1030 ratings on an easy course. I know for a fact those same players would get wrecked on NC courses.

@Blastmo Hornets Nest and Angry Beaver in Charlotte are the obvious gold level courses. Going west, North Cove has some nice courses, The Gorge being the toughest. Richmond Hill in Asheville has a nice challenge without being too intense. I started disc golf in FL and the ratings I mentioned are from a tournament on a course that's 10x easier than any of those.
Man... I was so invested through that whole round and that first shot on 18 crushed me! That shows good storytelling and a well done video!

Damn bro I wish you made content a while ago. I just realized I watched all your videos and shorts. Dope Chanel, very inspiring seeing a low sub KZreadr put so much effort in your video's. People Don't realize how much editing goes into even a one minute short.
There is a guy in the top 4 named Eagle... I think the obvious solution is to change your first name to Birdie.

one hell of a round of disc golf my friend!!
I played Veterans once when I visited TX. Birdied hole 1 then went on to shoot +7 for the round, lol. Not a great round score but sure loved the course. You’re lucky to have such a great home course.
Great content man love to see it
The hole 18 pressure is REAL
YOOOOOOO I LOVE the shirt. As a huge kings k fan and an avid disc golfer, this makes my heart so happy!!!!!!
So close to shooting an elite level round great effort you’ll get the 1000 rated next time brother!

Quality video, and quality putting. (lets be positive and forget the last hole)
alright so I am a regional pro in another sport, and I am just getting into disc golf. what does it really take to compete in a C-tier? i have a C-tier course near me (haven't played it yet) and I have 6 discs. par? slightly under?
i have never been so invested in a sport i have never watched before
Yeah, a senior disc golfer here. In fact, Im old enough to be your grandfather...and still just might be! 😂 Anyway, loved this video. Well done.
What did you place overall
Best DG KZread out there. Even with that 3 putt on 18:(
This was fire
congrats on the -4 bro i always do similar things when having a hot round such as letting the pressure take you off your game. but i guess thats what makes the elite pros elite right? GZ anyways my dude

Damn so close, thats a tough finishing hole... The gap is far off the tee and then is subjected to the wind halfway through the flight.
Love the videos! We are from McKinney! Would love to get a round in together sometime!
How much OB does that course have?
FYI, not trying to nit pick, but instead of saying "negative 6" or "positive 15," the accepted terminology in ball golf and disc golf is "6 under" or "15 over." Cheers and continued good luck in future tournaments!
That's so tough

negative 6? why does that sound so weird compared to 6 under.

17 with -6.... target reached.... next step.... nervously trying to hold onto a par.... THIS is where I live.... making that bad decision to "try and hold on".... This is where I now try and remember.... "Right, made it this far and here I am... so let's go one better'... (in this case... shoot for a birdie... relax... just think... a nice smooth lay up and bogey.... Then happily take a E (or even the Birdie)... In reality I'm there till morning, overthrow after overthrow.... Course I have one advantage... I'm Mediocre at everything... I LIKE to be the guy just beaten out by 'that guy'... u know... the one that is having a miserable day... Some times it's fun to deliberately shadow someone that's having a bad day... and sometimes it great pushing someone that's usually way better than me. (Om trail bikes I was good if i was angry... but who want's to race angry... so I had more fun stopping and helping out someone stuck in the mud, or shadowing someone noob... (also made it look like I was a better rider than I was... and gave my energy time to make it back out from behind that bush). I've only been throwing plastic at trees for 2 & a bit years... (starting at 50ish)... and can average E at my local (all hills Berhampore, Island Bay, Wellington New Zealand. I have my ups.... (2 HI1's on #4) I have my downs... (literally flipped and rolled down a hill adding 100ft off tee on #8) and a surprise best of -4.... while only using my Pig... with a par on #7, 734ft... up hill (Par 5). I wonder what mediocre thing I'll take up next.
Your almost there just work on your gap shots. Throw fireball type disc on Annie or a meteor on hyzer with a one step run up.
