|
|
How did you get your start in disc golf?
|
My dad started playing after he got a dog and needed somewhere to take the dog for walks. He brought me out to play not too long after that.
|
|
|
What do you love most about the sport?
|
I get to make a difference being involved in running events and helping maintain my home courses.
|
|
|
What makes disc golf better than the other sports you have played?
|
I was never really much of a sports playing person until I started playing disc golf.
|
|
|
How do you approach a new course?
|
If I'm playing casual I'll try to play a bunch of different shots. If I'm playing a tournament blind I just try not to get too crazy and try the shots that look like they might only maybe work.
|
|
|
What motivates you to continually improve your game?
|
My game has kind kind of taken a back seat to my focus on running events lately, but I know I have the ability to put my skills together and play consistently good disc golf and I look forward to having time to make that happen.
|
|
|
What do you do to stay focused playing in tourneys?
|
Have fun even if I'm playing less than great. Don't dwell on bad shots and it won't bring the rest of your round down.

|
What’s your most memorable win?
|
I've yet to get a win but shooting two rounds in a row about 50 points above my rating at the 2019 SeaTac Open was nice. Keeping relatively consistent for 54 holes in one day is not easy.
|
|
|
What’s your most memorable disc golf moment?
|
Probably my second tournament ace, playing on a card with cool people that I know and friend on the card behind me also got to see it happen. And I kind of called the ace on a Facebook post the day before the tournament.

Who is your disc golf hero, and how were you influenced be him or her?
|
Keith Lionetti, owner of the local disc shop and a major part of the disc golf community in western Washington. The amount of time he has put into work on the courses is a major influence in why I have gotten more involved in the disc golf community.

What non-disc golf hobbies do you have?

I like to watch movies. For the most part if I'm not at work or sleeping I'm probably doing something disc golf related.

|
|
Any superstitions you have before or during a round?
|
not really
|
|

They're super useful...great to keep warm when there are backups on the course. It's also really cool to have my event logos on all 3 towel types now.
