Year Started Disc Golf
When/how did you discover disc golf and knew you absolutely loved it?
Once upon a time me and my friends were really bored and we tried to make a new game. We went to store and buy bunch of throwing darts and started to play Darts golf to trees. Couple days later we found this Frisbeegolf sport and went to try out. Since then i have wanted to be better on this game every day.
What’s your favourite RPM Disc in your bag right now and why?
Ruru right now because its super glidy straight putter and flies a mile.
Do you have any practice routines? If so, what are they?
Offseason i do practise more technics and physics. On the season i just try to maintain my game and try to stay healthy and mobility.
What are your goals for the current season?
Try to jump to the 1000 club and while making this happen i hope i am gonna get good placements at the tournaments as well.
Do you have a proudest disc golf moment?
For now I think the proudest moment would be ending 2nd at Samui Swine Classic 2023 A-Tier against Philo Brathwaite, Scott Stokely and many big names.
What is the most memorable disc golf battle you’ve experienced/witnessed?
I had a great disc golf battle with Shasta Criss, taking down the victory with 1 stroke in Pattaya. After i got 7 strokes lead heading to final round.
What is your go to tip for disc golf beginners?
Leave the technic practising to the field and when you are shooting scores at course don't think about anything else than playing the game 🙂
If you could play any course in the world and bring along any 3 disc golf friends, where and who would it be?
USDGC Winthrop Gold with Seppo Paju, Niko Rättyä and Lauri Suominen
