In this episode I have a conversation with Craig Kitchens from Idio Sports. Back in 2018 Craig got the idea to make a disc golf shoe and then 3 years later he had a prototype. He had people like Nate Sexton testing the shoe and then soon after started a Kickstarter campaign with a goal of raising $119,000 and ended up raising over $260,000.

In this episode Eric Oakley talks about his move to Infinite Discs and some of the top discs he is excited about trying out. 

A few topics we discuss:

We answer questions about taking your disc golf practice to the next level and what a structured practice session could look like. 

Eric answers a question about the importance of release angle especially as you develop more power with your throw. 

When your round is going bad do you change up your game plan or stick to what you did in practice?

If you are not throwing understable discs for your forehand throw....you are the problem and not your discs.

In this episode I have a conversation with Robbie C Disc Golf about his start in disc golf and what prompted him to start a YouTube channel. His YouTube channel is only a year old and already has 22k subscribers. Robbie gives us some tips on growing a presence on YouTube using disc golf and he shares some disc golf tips.

A question we often get on the show is people inquiring about how to get a disc golf course in their area. Who do they need to talk to? How do I work with the local disc golf club? How do I approach the local Parks and Recreation Department?

Pacific Upshot Consulting saw a need locally to help disc golfers grow a disc golf community and is now doing it just about every where.

On this episode Chris Clemons and I talk about lessons he learned during the 2021 season, how it felt to be matched up against Calvin Heimburg during the DGPT Matchplay Championships, and what he has planned during the off-season.

If you follow the top disc golf pros on Instagram then you have seen art work from Paul Johnson and his company Tee Box Disc Golf. Paul has been creating amazing disc golf art for players, disc golf clubs, and disc golf manufacturers for a few years now. I wanted to learn more about what Paul does and how he got his start.

According to their site, DGPM was created out of the necessity to provide Representation, Leadership, and Advocacy for Professional Disc Golfers. Within this continuously growing industry, it is important that a company representing the top professional athletes of Disc Golf be deeply involved within both the industry and the sport itself.  will include career management, seeking out new endorsement opportunities, player management in areas such as social media, website development, branding, and above all else, enabling Professional Disc Golfers to obtain the quality of life they deserve.

I ask Stephen Scansaroli (or Scans as he likes to be called) why he feels players and the sport of disc golf need an agency like DPGM even though there have been others that have tried.

We also dive into his advice for players that are trying to make it in disc golf and then we learn more about the Scans the person.
