What a recovery.

After a final-round disappointment at last week’s PDGA Professional Disc Golf World Championships found Catrina Allen taking home third place, she bounced back with a 5-under par 64 at Iron Hill Friday morning to take an early lead at the Delaware Disc Golf Challenge.

Iron Hill Disc Golf Course may have a lower par this year, but it’s playing tougher. Steve Hill is back with another episode of Chain Reaction to break down day one of the Delaware Disc Golf Challenge, with news and soundbites from Kristin Tattar, Ricky Wysocki, and James Conrad.

Iron Hill already had a reputation as one of the most difficult courses on tour. So when it dropped from a par 72 to a par 69 this year, the casual observer might think that the track was easing up on the competitors.

Ricky Wysocki is here to dispel that notion.
