Disc Golf Career

Amateur
Started Disc Golf in 2019

How did you discover Disc Golf?

In 2019 we were at a local park and saw some Disc Golf baskets, we were unsure about what they were so did some googling and watch some youtube videos. Not long after that we grabbed some cheap frisbees from Kmart to have a round as a family and found out that it certainly wasn't as easy as it looked! After a little more research hubby ordered two RPM starter sets and so began our journey, we haven't looked back!

What is your proudest Disc Golf moment?

My proudest moment by far would be being the Australian Disc Golf Tour points champion for 2022. I was also incredibly proud to retain the Queensland Disc Golf Tour Points champion for 2023 against some tough competition.

What are your practice routines?

I try to make sure I put in about 30 min of putting practice each day and field work as many days a week as possibly.

What is your go-to tip for beginners?

Learn your discs and how they perform for you. Practice consistency and don't try to throw overly hard to improve distance, it will come with time. Spend plenty of time working on your putting, being confident in your put will save you extra shots in the long run.
