Strengths:
My driving is almost always working well for me and my putting has improved a lot over the past few years. I would say my mental game is very strong for me, I can always have fun during a round and I don’t let the mistakes bother me for very long at all. Focus on the shot, you can’t change it after it happens so put your focus 100% on the current situation.
Training:
I like to throw for hours in the field, practice putting for a few hours a day if I can. I also like to play rounds of golf when I can; usually I play worst shot doubles by myself.
Player Advice :
Just play within your own game. Don’t be bothered by what is going on around you, you can’t control it; you can only control your own situations. Try to beat the course, not the other players on your card.
Player Models/Influences:
Disc Golfer’s in Wisconsin are a great bunch. They have really helped me improve my game fast. I would not be so drawn to this sport if it wasn’t for all the friends I have made and the fact that it’s always a different result every time. I pieced together my game from watching lots of videos of the top players in the sport throw and putt.
Personal Disc Golf Goals:
I would like to just continue to improve my consistency, and to be able to compete with the top players in the game. Also I want to continue to have fun and meet new people and play new courses.
