Team Tribe
Disc Golf Career
Amateur
Started Disc Golf in 2021
How did you discover Disc Golf?
I bought a starter set from an impulsive facebook ad during a COVID lockdown. Played my first event a few months later, and I've been hooked ever since. There's nothing like watching a disc fly through the air
What is your proudest Disc Golf moment?
Spirit award at the WA Open 2023
What are your practice routines?
Race to the field when I get 20 mins away from the kids, or the local pitch and putt on my lunch break at work. Throw til my arm or back gives out. Rest for 3 days then repeat.
What is your go-to tip for beginners?
Never forget that you're just throwing frisbees. Then work on your putts and your approaches. Make friends with everyone
Favourite Disc
Plastic Type: Magma
Comment: "I got a gummy, bendy, red magma soft Kea a little while back. Hit a tree with my first throw and bent it all out of shape, but it's the best approach disc I own. Hits the ground and just sticks"
Player Stats
When in doubt, chuck a thumber
