“Those of you who have seen the show ‘Ted Lasso’ have heard Danny Rojas speak ‘Football is Life’. Well, similarly ‘Disc Golf is Life’ and there is no better embodiment of this saying than ‘Not Just A Shot’. Scott’s journey, and life, hasn’t always been pretty and didn’t always include disc golf. But like life, moments of triumph, meaning and significance come along once in a while hopefully for all of us. Not Just A Shot beautifully and poetically captures not only one such moment, but why that moment meant so much… to all of us.
I first met Scott in 2000 as my own life was becoming Disc Golf, in fact a picture of our first meeting is in the video. Our own journeys have fortunately intertwined many times over the years, including that very day. We had breakfast together that morning and I was standing near him when he threw it. Honestly, when it came out of his hand I thought he shanked it. But like life and like Scott, he created one of the most amazing moments in our sport. Disc Golf is Life and Scott Stokely is Disc Golf. Treat yourself to this documentary, you too will see just how Disc Golf is Life.”
