    Course Comments
    Flip City
    Shelby, MI
    The most charming course I have ever played.
    Kensington Toboggan
    Milford, MI
    This is one of biggest courses I have played with lots of elevation and cool layout it makes for a day in woods, what better way to spend some time.
    Cass Benton
    Livonia, MI
    A very cool layout that will often leave you wanting more.
    The Leviathan
    Ludington, MI
    Awesome disc golf.

    A world class course that indeed takes world class shots and demands world class mental golf skills.

    In The Disc Golf Bag: Drivers
    Disc Comments
    ESP Pulse
    (max weight)
    My Pulse is in my bag to fight the wind or just to power through a hyzer shot. The Pulse is the disc to harness my forehand snap. Get this disc and rip it!
    ESP Surge
    (max weight)
    The Surge is my backhand flyer and is used to fetch me some controlled distance. The flippy dance is what I call the cool flight the Surge creates. The Surge is the longest driver I have, in the right wind conditions it can be a fine roller.
    Z Crush
    (max weight)
    This is the most reliable turnover or distance driver in my bag.
    In The Disc Golf Bag: Midrange
    Disc Comments
    ESP Buzzz
    (max weight)
    The best all around midrange ever!
    ESP Comet
    (max weight)
    This the best glide you can ask for in a golf disc. I think Comets are most overlooked midrange disc available. They're great for low rotation shots and turn over lines. In positive wind the Comet will go farther than my drivers. You can always find a Comet in my bag.
    In The Disc Golf Bag: Putt and Approach
    Disc Comments
    X Soft Banger GT
    (max weight)
    I love my Banger for a power grip backhand shots 300 ft to 150 ft or to putt in high winds. This overstable disc is a great asset to those who enjoy driving with putters.
    Soft APX
    (max weight)
    My APX has become my most reliable scoring putter for touch shots 100 feet and in. When I need to seal the deal, the APX is my go-to chunk 'o plastic.
    D Magnet
    (174 - 175)
    This putter has proven to be what fits my hand and throwing style from the day I picked one up. The way it hits the chains has worked well for me and will continue to be my putter for years to come.
    D Challenger
    (173 - 175)
    The best overstable putter in the game. The wind has no threat when the challenger is in my hands.
