Started Disc Golf in 2015

I picked up disc golf with some of my college ultimate frisbee teammates during the offseason, we needed a break from ultimate but still wanted to throw discs. I love being out in nature, and disc golf takes me to all sorts of beautiful places. I also love how disc golf is competitive but not directly competitive> I can be supportive of my competitors because its not really me against them, its me against the course.

Winning my first tournament! It was at Waterloo DGC in Lebanon Oregon, I played the course for the first time the day before the event. It came down to a three-way playoff and I won it on the first hole!

Practice putt everyday, if I'm prepping for a tournament I like to throw two off the tee on every hole and play the worse of the two so I can practice being out of position.

Start with slower discs, throwing straight is more important than throwing far. The Piwakawaka is the perfect beginner disc as it is easier for slower arms to get up to speed and faster arms will learn angle control.

Plastic Type: Atomic

Comment: "The Tara iti took a bit to grow on me, but once I started figuring it out it became a go to disc for a wide variety of shots. Very reliable stability without sacrificing makes the Tara iti the perfect control driver for a wide range of skill levels."
