Odds to Win: Green Mountain Championship (Sept 18–21, 2025)
Updated: September 13, 2025
Event Overview
Location: Smugglers’ Notch Resort (Jeffersonville, Vermont) — Brewster Ridge & Fox Run Meadows
Dates: September 18–21, 2025
GMC is a DGPT Playoff stop that splits rounds between two distinct tests: the wooded, shape-demanding Brewster Ridge (precision, scramble, angle control) and the OB-heavy, wind-exposed Fox Run Meadows (distance control, placement, pressure putting). Course/field details and player ratings are drawn from the official PDGA event page.

Course Fit / Profile
- Brewster Ridge: Tight lines, elevation, and technical tee shots reward controlled drivers with elite scramble and touchy forehands/backhands.
- Fox Run Meadows: Distance with discipline. Wind + OB corridors favor players who can shape long flights, land safe, and convert pressure putts down the stretch.
Fantasy Picks Advice
Top Favorite — Why Gannon Buhr is the Clear Pick
Buhr arrives with the highest PDGA event-page rating (1062) and top-tier standings across StatMando and DGPT—exactly the blend our weighted model rewards. His title defense from 2024 at the same venue adds specific win equity at Smuggs: he’s already proven he can manage OB on Fox Run without sacrificing birdie pace, and his angle control on midranges and fairways travels perfectly to Brewster. GMC typically turns on late-round decision-making when OB and wind amplify risk; Buhr’s combination of power, patience, and steady C1 putting minimizes doubles while maintaining scoring. With the ratings edge, strong season-long metrics, and direct course proof, Buhr is the most bankable anchor for Fantasy Disc Golf lineups—high floor from clean woods golf and a ceiling to sprint away if circle-2 cooperates.
Safe / Consistent Alternatives
Calvin Heimburg brings elite fairway accuracy to Brewster and top-two DGPT standing form; the PDGA World Rankings (2/21/24) #1 tag underscores his consistency. Anthony Barela offers top-3 StatMando/DGPT positioning and 1048 power that turns Fox Run’s long par-5s into scoring chances—if the putter is average, the ceiling is championship-tier. Ricky Wysocki, a former GMC champ, is the “trust the profile” pivot: forehand control and confident putting in OB/wind make him a reliable contend-every-round pick.
Dark Horses
- Isaac Robinson — Top-five DGPT standings and elite woods precision; if he keeps drivers in-bounds on Fox Run, he has Sunday upside.
- Kyle Klein — 1044 rating and sneaky-steady form; clean releases reduce OB and keep him on the lead card bubble.
- Eagle McMahon — Ceiling play: distance advantage creates birdie streaks on Fox Run; if C2 runs fall, he can flip the board quickly.

Final Thoughts
For Fantasy Disc Golf, GMC rewards balanced skill sets with disciplined OB avoidance. Our model ranks Buhr as the clearest favorite on rating + standings + proven Smuggs success, with Heimburg and Barela offering top-tier floors and real win equity. For leverage, Wysocki brings course history, while Robinson/Klein/McMahon provide upside at lower roster share. Prioritize players who can score at Fox Run without penalties and still carve lines at Brewster—that’s historically the winning blueprint in Vermont.
