Favorite Courses :
Ozark Mountain is my favorite course in the world. It is a true par 72 course and I like to play par 4's and 5's.
In The Bag:
Proto Warlocks (SS)- Very grippy plastic and Straighter then the wizard
1080 Driver- A little overstable for upshots and short drives
Wizard (E)- Jump putts
Element (E)- All kinds of short drives. Very controlable
Demon (S)- Hard hyzers and headwind shots
3 Sabre (E)- All beat in differently for all fairways shots(250-350). Most under rated disc in the game.
3 Blurr (E)- All beat in differently. One Proto that i use for rollers
Spirit (E)- All Big Hyzers
Player Advice :
The best advice I think I ever got was from Justin Bunnell(Thanks) and as we drove around in his van the 2006 season all he could repeat is all it comes down to is "Executing your shot". You know you can because you have a million times in practice. Just Step up to your shot and believe that you can and you will!!!!!
Player Models/Influences :
David McCormack- He has always been a major influence in my life and has done more then anyone could ask without wanting anything in return. Timmy Gill - My all time favorite player to play with. He makes it feel like your shots are just as important as his own. Peter Middlecamp- He took me in for a week and helped me train for Am Nationals. Tim Schmidt (My Dad)- For always making sure i could get to the next one.
Personal Disc Golf Goals :
To be able to go on tour and play as a career. That would be sick.
