It started out strictly recreational, then transformed into a competitive hobby with friends. |

|
What makes disc golf better than the other sports you have played? |
Mostly, how you can play it with anyone that's able and willing. |

How do you approach a new course? |

If you could play any course in the world, which would it be? |

What does #NoBadRounds mean to you? |
No matter how the day is going, remember you are still outside playing disc golf. Still a better day than being inside or at work. |
|
What do you love most about your FlighTowel? |
When I feel it helps me the most is after a bad shot. If I want to make a mental note I can grab my FlighTowel and get a "practice throw" even during my round. |

Above Ground Level - Team Captain |
