Competing in the Amateur Disc Golf World Championships in Charlotte July 15-21st. Only 300 pros and 280 Amateurs will be competing out of the 53,000+ competing members in the PDGA. It is a big honor and I plan on doing well. I beat the 4th ranked amateur in the world last weekend on one of the hardest courses! I will also be competing in the long distance competition, the record is 838 feet, which I have come within 219' of....wind plays a factor in setting the record, and the throws that have set it have all been made in Primm Nevada in extreme wind. Might be competing in armwrestling soon again too since I am down to 169 and plan on being 155 soon :-)

Thanks guys! I still follow armwrestling and now that the weight is getting under control I might jump in a local event here in the near future. Maybe I have more fast twich muscle after throwing the past 2 years. lol.

You're my hero already. You are the only armwrestler alive who can throw a frisbee! I wonder if NOT having ridiculous-sized hands is a benefit in Disc Golf?
