So I just returned from a week of disc golf in Austin , Tx. The wife and I looked at this also as a vacation opportunity and we quickly learned that… yah… Austin is in pretty bad shape. Compared to Fort Wort or Dallas, our state capital is pretty drab. Some good fishing opportunities but […]
So I’m leaving for my trip to Austin for the 2025 NADGT North American Disc Golf Championships and I thought I’d brain dump a bit before I leave. This is the biggest tournament I’ve been in since I started playing disc golf about 12 years ago. I honestly feel this tournament HAS to be a […]
Dang… I was hoping to do well at one of the bigger disc golf tournaments I had planned for this year, but unfortunately… no doubt about it… I failed. This was probably the worst disc golf performance of the year, maybe the worst the past few years. Just crazy….. Long story short… I was 10 […]
I played in one of the 3 important tournaments that I have planned the rest of the year. I have another one this coming weekend and then the biggest one in late October. I can’t tell you how frustrating it is to play good (or even great!) during practice and then in the tournament some […]
With a national disc golf tournament coming up in late October in Austin, which I really… want to do good at, I’m playing in as many local (bigger) tournaments as I can to help me deal with the excitement, stress and anxiety I get when I play these bigger competitive events. Recently I blogged about […]
Charlie Kirk was assassinated today. While I may not have agreed with everything he said, I followed this young man’s journey the past few years. I had so much respect for his willingness to dialog and debate other people who did not share his point of views or beliefs. I was in awe of his […]
As I prepare for the national disc golf tournament coming up in late October, I’m playing in a few tournaments leading up to the event to help me better understand and deal with the mental stress & anxiety that plagues me when I play disc golf. I think… I might be on to something…. A […]
As I prepare for the NADGT tournament in late October I plan on playing in several local tournaments to hopefully get myself up to a decent level of tournament readiness. The main thing of course being mentally prepared. That collapse at this year’s Glass Blown Open is going to haunt me for a long time. […]
I had such a crazy experience at the Glass Blown Open this year, a total mental collapse resulting in horrible last round play that cost me the tournament. It bothered me so much I pulled out of all of my planned tournaments. So why I am signed up to play in another national tournament? I […]
So I’ve decided to document what I have gone through living with heart arrythmia for almost 50 years now. It’s a bit of a roller coaster ride as usual…. so let’s go back in time to when I was cocky confident in life…. Warning.. this is a long… impulsive ramble. If people had to describe […]
