Chad Hays can’t wait until spring – not just because he’s tired of winter.
He’s a member of the Ada Disc Golf Association. That means that he can’t wait until Tuesday night league starts at the ONU disc golf course.
Chad’s such a fanatic at the sport that he even has a practice basket in his back yard. And, has a “hole-in-one,” and a signed disc to prove it. “It was a 205-foot toss on number 18 at McComb,” he said.
He retired the disc after that game. “It’s in a shadow box and I’ll never play it again.”
