The Lake Eureka Course can be one of the most daunting courses on tour between the natural OB on the lake and the OB ropes on nearly every other hole on the course, scoring can be tricky depending on the conditions. Yesterday tested many of the top pros in the sport but today provided better scoring conditions, and the players took full advantage of the situation.
On one of the earlier cards of the day, Nikko Locastro carded one of the two -10 rounds for the day, moving up 34 spots into a tie for fifth at the end of the day, placing him on top of the chase card tomorrow. Par Save Productions filmed Nikko's card, and it should be available to view early next week (with Nikko providing commentary).
Also carding a -10 was Cameron Colgazier. Cam is no newcomer to the lead card at Ledgestone. In fact, his -3 performance in day one was uncharacteristic for his typical play at Lake Eureka.

The second round of the Ledgestone Insurance Open presented by Discraft presents a second course to the FPO division. Today the FPO division moved to Sunset Hills, where the scoring opportunities abound on the par 59 multipurpose ball and disc golf course.
Early this morning saw Kona Star Panis making moves from way down the leaderboard when she started her day -3 thru five, carding birdies on one, four, and five. Also on an earlier tee time making moves was Ellen Widboom. Ellen started the day +7 and finished at +4 throwing a -3 at Sunset Hills. She moved up 10 spots on the day and is in an excellent position to make even more moves at Northwood tomorrow.
A bulk of the scoring today took place on the lead card. At different points during the round, each person on the lead card was sitting at the top of the leaderboard.
