I was paralyzed in Afghanistan when a 250lb IED blew up my truck. Since I’m wheelchair bound regular activities have been a struggle for me as well as outdoor activities. There were a lot of things that I thought I couldn’t do anymore outside. All of that changed when I met Anthony Netto, and he got me into a Paragolfer. That machine changed my life as well as my family’s lives. I use it for everything now. I play outside with my kids, go to the range, walk my kids to school, walk the dogs, go to the beach, I’m involved with my sons football practice, I use it when I take my service dog to training, take my kids for rides on the back of it, play sports with my kids and their friends, go for walks with my wife (Hillary Wayman) and the list goes on. I don’t know what I would do without the Paragolfer. It puts a smile on my face every time I open my garage and see it. I tell everyone else I see about it, who was injured in the military, with mobility issues.

Thank you, as always, to the Stand Up and Play Foundation. For making our Full Swing Golf RI event possible! Without the generosity of Stand Up and Play and  Anthony Netto today and all our other events would not be as special!

Life took a difficult detour three years ago when my son was paralyzed … this past fall,  Anthony inspired us to a new idea and sitting around in a wheelchair just doesn’t make sense anymore when you can stand up and play. Thank you Anthony Netto. See you June 19 at Kelowna Springs GC.  https://youtu.be/Ru3ge-BLw_g
