Last year, I went to my first disc golf tournament ever at White Clay State Park in Newark, Delaware. I frantically practiced for about three weeks before. I started to work on different throws that would help me on some of the harder holes. There are many different throwing techniques, but I throw fore hand, thumbers, and backhand. I learned a different stance and grip for each. At the tournament, I came upon a hole that I needed to use all three throwing styles in order to get a reasonable…

beautiful place. The “Country Club” is a place where I spend most of my time. The smell of fresh cut grass, and the sounds of purely struck golf shots are what makes this place what it is. Over the course of my daily trips to the Country Club, I realized that this place holds a lot of good and bad times for the golfers.

could be received from them. Golf has shown me that a competitive sport could still be enjoyable and not require an excessive amount of time. I joined the golf team only a year ago, but I started golfing at a young age with my mom and my grandpa as my teachers. Their love of golf was forced upon me with a miniature golfing set and yearly visits to the golf course. My most vivid memory of a golfing trip was when I was eight and threw one of my mom’s clubs across the course after I had…

A crack pierced the air as my grandmother’s golf ball whizzed down the center of the fairway. I could do nothing but stare, awestruck, as she confidently stepped off the tee box. I was perplexed by how a short, older woman was able to create enough force to send a ball almost 200 yards.
