| Distance Drivers:
Star Starfires / Star Orcs / Champion Destroyer – I go back and forth on my most overstable drivers, which are ideal for playing in the wind Star Roadrunner – I throw this disc because it has a lot of glide, which means more distance. It makes an excellent anhyzer disc Fairway Drivers: Star TeeBirds – a “fairway driver”, which means it is one I can rely on. I use this disc for hyzer shots Champion Leopards – another “fairway driver”, and this is the most important driver in my bag! In competition, it is about course management and control a lot more than power Mid-Range: Rocs – (DX, KC, Special Blend) I use various types of Rocs for midrange shots (Ontario, Star, Full-Color, DX, KC) and I adjust what’s in my bag to the course Champion Panther – I throw this disc for a lot of midrange and approach shots. This disc reminds me of a beat-up Roc that’s reached that perfect point where you can do anything with it Putt & Approach: Aviar Drivers – I putt with this because I prefer the big bead Aviar, especially since I used JK Aviars for several years before this. I really like the grip on these! Glow Aviars – I throw the Glow Aviars for approach shots because my putter is too overstable. I like the grip of the Glow plastic too 
Favorite Disc Golf Hole: Too many to choose from!
Home Course: Jones Park, Cedar Rapids, IA Number of Aces: 10 Longest Measured Throw: 378' - Worlds 2006 Carded a 2 on a 700 foot downhill hole at 2008 Worlds! Highest rated single round: 2006 USWDGC, Semi-final round, McNaughton Park in Peoria, IL, from the long blue tees, shot 55 which was rated 1020, next closest score was 62, so I went into finals with an 11 stroke lead then went on to win my first major! Goals: National Tour Champion, World Championship, International travels What is your most memorable win? USWDGC – winning the national title is amazing! Most memorable tournament: One of the most memorable tournaments I have is when I went to The Memorial in Phoenix, AZ, the first time in 2005. Being an Iowa native, our winters are brutally cold and when I stepped off that plane in Phoenix I could not wipe the smile off my face! The weather was sunny and 75, and there was grass on the ground! I enjoyed every moment of that tournament, especially spectating from Duke’s! I just could not wipe the smile off my face! The Memorial is one of my favorite tournaments to attend! Advice: This game is at least 80% mental, just like every other sport! Work on your mental game and watch your scores drop! Practice regimen or pre-tournament warm up routine: I focus a lot on my short game practice in a place where I can throw to baskets at approach distance apart. I like to have practice rounds on the course before a tournament. I also like to throw some holes before the tournament starts and to practice putting before the tournament begins. For the women... All of you women out there, stick to it! Don’t give up! Play hard! We’d love to see you at the tournaments!!!  | Division: Pro Womens
