STOCKTON, CA – A former drug dealer is forced to return to his old lifestyle in order to keep up with all the tour series disc golf discs being released.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Nathan Pascal is a thirty eight year old man who was recently released from prison after serving thirteen years for drug-related charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While incarcerated, Nathan was approached by Evangelical Disc Golfers Against Drug Dealing (EDGADD), who helped him see the error in his old lifestyle as a drug dealer. EDGADD helped Nathan channel his drug dealing urges through disc golf and taught him the mantra “when the urge to deal hits, reach for your discs.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nathan was released from prison in January of 2020 – at the peak of the Covid disc golf boom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“When I first got out of prison I was doing great” Nathan explained, “I did everything Paul McBeth from EDGADD told me to; got a job, quit drug dealing, and poured myself into disc golf.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“But see, tour series discs weren’t around before I got locked up. I started to collect them, and that’s where things started going downhill.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“They hook you in with limited edition stamps and signatures from the pros.” He said. “At first I didn’t understand the hype, but eventually I caved and bought a 2020 Calvin Heimburg Tour Series Swirly Star Destroyer because the galaxy-themed stamp was just too good to pass up.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Once I got the disc in my hands I immediately realized why so many people wanted these discs. I felt like I added an extra fifty feet to my drive just by holding it; honestly, it was almost an erotic experience.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“That was my gateway drug.” Said Nathan, “Then it was the Eagle McMahon Cloudbreaker. Then the 2020 Champion Glow Sexton Firebird. And at that point, I was completely hooked<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nathan continued, “I started buying every tour series disc I could get my hands on – just like Pokemon, I had to collect them all. Within the first month I already had more discs than I could fit in my bag. Which was fine because some of them were too pretty to throw anyways.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“By the second month, I was already spending more on discs than I was making from my construction job. But I knew the Simon Lizotte Tilt was dropping soon and I needed to get cash fast. There was no way I was missing that drop, so my only option was to start dealing again.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The rate that these discs come out is unreal.” He said. “The companies know what they are doing too, it’s not much different than the drug industry. To be honest, I know drug addicts who are less addicted to heroin<\/strong> than some of my disc golf buddies are to discs.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We asked Nathan if he had any plans to stop dealing and he said: “I mean, in a perfect world I wouldn’t have to deal. But as long as they keep making these discs I really don’t see another option.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
