When I'm not disc golfing, I enjoy DIY home improvement, coffee and espresso, travel (especially to National Parks), reading, hockey, and spending time with my wife & 3 sons.

I threw almost exclusively forehand for the first 13 years I played disc golf before learning to throw backhand. Now I throw a mix, but predominantly backhand. I enjoy tight, technical woods courses, particularly with great natural beauty and elevation change. Wildlife sightings are always a plus.

I play longer open courses too but these do not speak to me the same way woods courses do. I also really enjoy well designed nine hole courses to mix in shorter rounds. I love to travel to play disc golf and am always looking to add new states. With 25 states and one Canadian province played, my favorite areas for disc golf are Wisconsin, Michigan's UP, and Kansas City. I carry my gear in an awesome custom Pound Disc Golf Octothorpe - highly recommended.

I try to keep reviews as objective as possible and keep my average for reviews as close to 2.5 as possible. It is skewed a bit higher than this because I tend to seek out excellent courses.

My favorite courses to date:
1. Sandy Point Resort - Lac Du Flambeau, WI
2. Clover Cliff Ranch - Elmdale, KS
3. The Tailings - Iron River, MI
4. Harmony Bends - Columbia, MO
5. Hummel Park - Omaha, NE
6. Blue Ribbon Pines - East Bethel, MN
7. Standing Rocks - Stevens Point, WI

Note: These are my personal favorites, not necessarily the "best" courses I've played. Another way to put it would be the courses I most want to play again someday.
