Here's a 13 minute throw back to how it all began, where I came from and how I got to where I'm at today. There's too many people to thank along the way, so I just want to say THANK YOU to everyone. The best thing about this is that I'm just getting started. So many more things to do and achieve!

You may not know really what you do for disc golf, but I can tell you that so many of us love to watch you play. You have inspired so many of us to be better at the sport we love and it's videos like this that really show who you are. In my words, genuine. I messaged you once asking for a driving clinic video and you did even more than that. You broke down my drive and told me what to do. I fully expected no response but I was completely wrong. With your direction, I have improved my game greatly and I will be forever thankful for your time. I wish that one day I could inspire people the way you have. To be better, to bring happiness to others, and to help others who need it. Thank you for all you do for the sport we love and keep on pushing forward in your dreams. You have many of us rooting you on!

It's time to repost this Simon, it is such a good watch. Long time disc golfers and newcomers will enjoy. Also you have so much you can add; marriage, fatherhood, and another meteoric rise, post injury, to people's champion. Thank you PS- people's champion for a long time, maybe was unsaid before.

Brought me to tears. ,but i'm an old guy. We get emotional easy. Lol... Very inspiring. Thank you Simon! I'll be 45 this yr... and am still waiting for my first Adv. Masters win. Took 2nd a couple times last yr., but always seem to "give it away" in the final few holes. I'm really hoping for a win this season. Wish me luck. :)

It's very important that people like Simon have the awesome attitude they do. Though disc golf is still a relatively small sport, having a good role model for kids that models respect, positivity and hard work is essential to creating a good sport culture that's accepting and supportive of new players. My favorite part of the whole video is when Simon says he got good at the sport because he had so much FUN when he played well. Fun is fun of course, but if people can have fun when they do their job or anything in life, success is much more likely! Thanks for being a role model Simon.

Simon, I am 52 years old, have been playing for about 6 years now. You are far and above the coolest pro out there, in my opinion. Keep it up man! You keep me motivated when I don't have much motivation. I suffered a back injury in 2017 which forced me to retire from my job. The injury limits my mobility and I have spent a lot of time sitting around at home. I have put on too much weight, which exacerbates my condition. I get out every now and then to play. Since i have started watching your channel, I find myself more motivated to play. I will get out there more, thanks to you. Have a great 2020 and Thank You.
