Since the last post many different events have occurred on our front. In this post I will update how our sponsored players are doing and highlight a new blog from Off Axis team member Justin W.
First off we would like to congratulate the members of team Off Axis for continuing to play solid the first half of the year. (Starting with the ladies) Kim Jones has had a tremendous half by placing in the top ten 5 out of the 6 tournaments she has entered (That I know of). You might be thinking, “Yeah but she is playing with the girls and there are only a few of them each tournament.” On the contrary, she is playing with the men (so take that) and if she did play with the women, she was in the Open division. By the way, she took home the goods at the Vegas 100 Holes From Hell in June. Way to go Kim and keep up the good solid play! Good luck at the Santa Maria Open!
Next comes the phenom Triston C who has simply been on a tear. 5 top 10 finishes with a 3rd place at the Conocido Conquest, 2nd at Lockdown at the Rock, and a 1st place finish at the Windwalkers High Desert Open! He is pretty much unstoppable and we have high hopes for the rest of the year. Good luck at the Worlds TC!
Justin W has unfortunately been on the side lines with an injury but he has taken this opportunity to start a informational blog highlighting some issues that this sport is facing from really rising to prime time. With two posts already online and more to come, check out his thoughts here: Justin’s Disc Golf Blog. I will be posting a link to his site every time a new post comes online.
In the next post I will update the Off Axis schedule for (hopefully) the rest of the year, and the continuation of the disc golf video seen in the last post. As for myself, team member Ron and I have stayed busy playing on the weekends and trying to better our skills & consistency. Kind of hard to do so only being able to play once a week but we manage. Being that I’m headed for fatherhood my posts will slowly move towards focusing on how disc golf can still fit into a busy baby schedule and how it can be a positive activity for yourself, the family, & the little one.
Till next time, where has the time gone
