Disc Golf Career
Professional
Started Disc Golf in 2020
How did you discover Disc Golf?
By in 2020 I discovered disc golf through Jomez on Youth. I became infatuated with how the disc flew and knew I had to try it for myself. Ever since that day I have been pursuing my disc golf career and last season I was an able to quit my job and go full time disc golf! I’ve been living the journey!
What is your proudest Disc Golf moment?
Last season I was able to take down NUI an A-tier in MA1 and it was my last AM tournament. It was a moment I felt every emotion, being that I decided that this tournament would be my last MA1 showing it meant the world to me to win it.
What are your practice routines?
For putting I do 10-15 mins sessions with 5-10 min breaks until I make 300-500 putts.
For backhand and forehand I go to a field and start with standstill training working in all angles and control and then I progress to full throws.
What is your go-to tip for beginners?
Paint the pole, and snap the wrist for putting.
For backhand it’s throw with your back leg and core.
