Favorite Courses
Milo McIver State Park (Riverbend DGC), Estacada OR - It is one of the most naturally beautiful disc golf course properties that we play for a big disc golf event. It is a magical park to be in and I enjoy the challenge of the design of both courses.
Roscoe Ewing Park, Medina, OH - Because its the home course that I grew up on. My parents, Sharon and Leroy, poured their hearts and souls into maintaining this course every year and it built the passion for the sport that my family has.

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?
Valarie Jenkins 2017 Tour Series Z Thrasher - I have never thrown a distance driver that has as much control as the Thrasher has. It has a great feel in the hand, because the rim isn't too big, and I feel more in control of my grip. This disc has increased my distance tremendously, and I am confident to throw this even when the wind begins to pick up. The Thrasher is the best distance driver I have ever thrown.
How about your main Mid-range?
My go-to midrange would have to be the Meteor. It flies dead straight out of the box and beats in to an understable trick disc. I throw this disc the most in the woods where accuracy is the most important element, and staying in the fairway will save you a handful of strokes each round.
What about Your Putter?
Jawbreaker Roach - I prefer an understable putter and brand new, out of the box, this became my favorite putter. There was no need to spend years to beat it into the perfect flight I needed. I love the velvety feel of the Jawbreaker plastic and the rim of the Roach fits really nicely in my hand. Once I felt this specific disc, I knew it was the one.
