Personal Profile
The first time I played disc golf was in 1984, my Dad and I wanted to play the very first course in Louisiana. It was installed in my hometown of Shreveport. From that first time, I loved the idea of creating my own holes and courses. In my "real" career, I moved all across the south. During those moves, I was lucky enough to help design or redesign courses in Lubbock, Texas; Denton, Texas; and Carbondale, Illinois before I moved to Jonesboro, Arkansas.
​​​
After a couple of years in Jonesboro, I made the decision to open Disc Side of Heaven.
​
The original "Recreational Course" and the Championship Course were the first two full, 18-hole courses I designed completely by myself.
​
I am passionate about course safety, and designing the course for what you are wanting. See below for more information.
Courses Designed
2013
DSoH Rec Course
18 Holes designed for beginners up to Advanced level players. Original design incorporated 4 different tee boxes for each hole.
2013
DSoH Championship Course
This was my first Championship design and opened in 2013. It has been home to the Disc Golf Pro Tour's Jonesboro Open since 2017. Although the course has changed some since 2013, 11 of 18 holes are still the original design.
2017
Forest Church
This was my first 9-hole course design. The Church wanted a beginner friendly course where their youth could play, as well as a place where locals could come and enjoy the natural area surrounding the church.
2023
Lake Sehoy Championship Course
This is my second Championship course located on an old 18 hole ball golf course. This course will be one of the premier courses in Mississippi and all of the south once final touches are made.
