3-Time Women's World Champion Des Reading and her disc golf extraordinaire husband Jay Reading visited Shelby Farms mid-April 2008 and put on quite a clinic for the local Memphis Disc Golfers.

Listening to Putting Tips, Food Habits, Stretching Exercises and Long Distance Advice, they demonstrated why these two are at the top of the PDGA Disc Golf World.

Around 25 Memphis Disc Golfers braved the windy and cold April day to meet the couple and play a round of flip up doubles.

"Hold the flat side up"...pure action

The riveted crowd take in tips and advice.  Club Secretary Brad Webb is rumored to be upset that 16 donuts before a round was not considered part of a good all-round Disc Golf diet.

"Tuck n roll"...Jay relays putting technique with the emphasis on - well, I gotta admit I wasn't there, that's probably why I shot 12 over yesterday! - ed.

Des relates more wisdom with the help of a trusty portable basket.  Our thanks go to her and Jay for sharing their expertise with some of our members.
