 * My Disc Golf Evolution **


 * Disc golf is just like traditional golf. Instead of trying to get a ball in a hole, you throw a disc (or Frisbee) into a basket. In 1991, the Pleasure Island Commissioner, Steve Berry, installed the first disc golf course in the area on Pleasure Island in Port Arthur, Texas. I was going to college and looking for cheap outdoor recreation and this fit the bill. The sport was fun, inexpensive, and challenging. **
 * Pleasure Island 1991 **


 * My friends and I went several days a week playing disc golf on Pleasure Island and began competing among ourselves and other local players. The sport was very informal in comparison to traditional golf and this appealed to our sense of youth and unrestrained character. **


 * As we became more skilled, we were encouraged to play some events throughout Texas. We travelled to various cities and had some success. Mostly we enjoyed playing golf and partying with other in various college-type cities. **
 * Austin, Texas 1994 **


 * After college, I got married, started working full-time and took a disc golf sabbatical for about for about six years. **


 * In 2004 I found that many local players had began embracing the sport and I started to play regularly. I started meeting a lot of people who were devoted to the sport. **
 * In 2005 we formed a local club, Golden Triangle Disc Golf and began hosting tournaments and events. **


 * In 2011 I began taking the sport more seriously and gave up my amateur status after winning several amateur events. **
 * Pleasure Island Classic 2006 - 1st Place **


 * This is my second year playing as a “Pro”. I have not won any tournaments and obviously do not make money off of the sport; but I continue to attempt to play at a higher level and still have fun. **
