Notable wins
2016 Greater Houston Championships. I had a rough first round, but pulled off a great second round and won the event by twelve strokes. I am most proud when I am able to recover.
Favorite Courses
Flyways Disc Golf Course aka Evergreen in Baytown, TX. The course is beautiful and well-maintained. it has a nice mixture of holes. It is fair and doesn't require flukey shots!
Disc Side of Heaven in Jonesboro, AR. This course is a beast in the best possible way. It is a really fun challenge!

IN THE BAG
*Note* In The Bag section is a work in progress. While these are the discs
the player throws, it may not accurately reflect the plastic type the player uses
Your go-to Driver?
The Vulture is my go-to! It flies straight for a long way and has a nice, reliable fade at the end. It handles the wind very well and the flight is consistent. I am also able to turn it over when needed to work different lines.
How about your main Mid-range?
Meteor! As a lefty, the Meteor has been a life line for me on the many right-handed thrower friendly courses I play. It is as understable as I need it to be. I'm also able to get perfectly straight shots with it by manipulating the release angle. I throw it both with a power grip and a fan grip.
What about Your Putter?
Jawbreaker Focus. I drive, putt, and throw approach shots with this disc. I love the reliable fade at the end for approaches and the super straight line I get when driving it. It also doesn't break in and become squirrelly very easily like some other putters I've used in the past. It does very well in the wind on approach shots which allows me to minimize the discs I have to use.
