Just get out and play, if you want to learn the skills, focus on one at a time, like a Martial art Disc Golf is learnt in layers.

Australia

Birth Year

Year Started Disc Golf

When/how did you discover disc golf and knew you absolutely loved it?
I started playing Disc Golf as an 11 year old in Perth Western Australia in 1987. Disc Golf and Flying Disc Sports were in and out of my life until 1993 when i took a long break as the sport was very small and seemed more like a silly hobby back then. In 2008 an old school friend i bumped into got me back into Disc Golf and i have been supporting its growth in Australia since then with course installations and events.
What’s your favourite RPM Disc in your bag right now and why?
My favourite RPM disc right now and for the last 5 years has been the atomic KEA. Its super realiable and although very stable midrange it still allows a lot of glide given the right hit and angle even in the windiest of conditions i can always rely on it coming home!
Do you have any practice routines? If so, what are they?
I split practice into 3 categories. 1. Time on the course, enjoying the game and looking for lines. 2. Time on an oval, learning discs and getting consistency in my throws. 3. Event practice when i play a tournament i always warm up before my round trying to play at least 6 holes to get into a groove. I havent listed putting as this must be a daily thing to keep the touch!
What are your goals for the current season?
2023 is all about playing more often in events, putting my fitness first to play without needing to much recovery time. Im also focused on cementing my position as the Masters player for Australian Disc Golf Team 2024.
Do you have a proudest disc golf moment?
To many to list them all but i am most proudest of putting the development of courses ahead of my own aspirations to ensure successful and consistent growth occurs for more people to find this game and its community
What is the most memorable disc golf battle you’ve experienced/witnessed?
Anytime im battling with Simon and Jacko on the course for a championship win. We've had a few and i look forward to many more.
What is your go to tip for disc golf beginners?
Just get out and play, if you want to learn the skills, focus on one at a time, like a Martial art Disc Golf is learnt in layers.
If you could play any course in the world and bring along any 3 disc golf friends, where and who would it be?
Jarva, Green Mountain or Milo Mcliver with Simon, Jay Reading and KJ Nybo, with a guest appearance of Dave Dunipace and his Chu High
Additional Comments
I love everything that the RPM Brand represents. The community, the game, the owners of RPM. Birds of a feather flock together and RPM and its owners are my kind of people, life long friends.
