Moving and Moving Forward

There has been a lot to think about lately especially with work changes, moving to Phoenix, and pushing disc golf to the forefront of my priorities. Work has changed... that's all I want to say about that. Moving to Phoenix is the next big stage of my life and I am lucky to be taking that stage with the love of my life, Sydney Bay. This is an interesting period, since I will now have a substantial increase in time to devote towards disc golf and other things. With moving I will have to incorporate myself with a new crowd, new clubs, and new courses. I am looking forward to this but from what I have been able to gather I may still be doing some travel to find tournaments to play in, and on the other hand I do have the Memorial to look forward to. I am not sure what to think but I am ready for a new experience and all the opportunities that come with it.

Moving forward I have been able to string together a collection of good rounds with 4 top finishes at different mini tournaments. It has been a really big boost in my confidence, I feel as all the time I have put into practicing is really paying off. My putting has become more consistent, I trust my midranges and putters more off the box and on the approach. I am learning to read lines, winds, and the game in general. I am powering down more and letting the discs work. I feel there are things I am doing that are helping my game excel. I am allowing myself to play an entire round of golf and not let a shot or missed putt hurt my round. I have trimmed up my bag as well, I am throwing only 6 different discs. This helps me learn the discs and trust what I have in my bag. Which in turn helps me trust myself on the course. I want to continue to push this confidence and take my game further, I plan on practicing more and putting in more rounds each week, but I am uncertain on how many PDGA events I will take part in, I want to allow myself to continue to excel in minis and the occasional PDGA event for a extended period. Once I feel ready I want to make a push and play in tournaments constantly and really push my game further but only when the time is right.

I am ready to push to make something of myself but staying confident, humble, focused and determined will be big.

I am a Discmaniac!
