What does your everyday disc golf routine look like?

I usually do most of my practice at home in our small backyard, I can do some shorter backhand/forehand upshots and some putting as well. Otherwise I play rounds with family or club members at our home course. If I feel I need to improve on something in my game I just do some single best shot rounds and that usually helps me get my timing and confidence back on track.

 

Tell us about your favorite Kastaplast disc

My absolute favorite Kastaplast disc is the K2 Berg, I use it for upshots both backhand and forehand within 70m and drives on shorter holes of course. It holds the line you put it on and I dont need to worry about long rebounds anymore.

 

What is your best disc golf memory?

My best discgolf memory is probarbly when I managed to take my first pdga open win at my home course in strong wind and heavy rain. I was just seconds from just going home instead of play in the really awful weather, but I got my head straight under the umbrella and decided to be boring and try to just take pars on our normally easy course. And that plan worked out really nice and after two rounds I had a good 10+ stroke lead and an average round rating of 1030.

 

Name one of your odd talents, or, what you like to do when not throwing plastic

When the disc golf season has ended I have found a new passion and that is playing goalie in a veteran ice hockey team and when needed in some other teams as well.
