Started Disc Golf in 2023
How did you discover Disc Golf?
Trevor Woolman, or as some may know him "Tbone" gifted my family a set of discs to bring with us on a family holiday to Taupo. We played spa park, and after 18 holes I knew disc golf was going to be in my future.
What is your proudest Disc Golf moment?
My proudest moment is my second place finish at the Taranaki Disc Golf Open. I shot a 1002 rated second round, and only just finished shy of winning the tournament.
What are your practice routines?
Fieldwork 2x a week, practice putting everyday. And I try get to the course three times in a week.
What is your go-to tip for beginners?
Start with something under stable like a Pekapeka or a Piwakawaka, and once you gain confidence with those molds you can try out something faster like a Kahu.
