Ezra Aderhold, PDGA #121715, is a professional disc golfer from Aberdeen, South Dakota, United States. He’s been member of the PDGA since 2019 and is probably one of the most hyped up disc golfers in recent years and for a reason. Aderhold can throw 600+ feet shots, has a supersolid putt and overall a nice guy. He is very active on social media platforms as he constantly puts up new content to his Instagram page and Youtube channel. In addition, he just signed a 2-year deal to join Discraft Elite Team through 2022.
Can Ezra Aderhold live up to the hype? Only time will tell!
Now back to the main topic, exactly how far can Ezra Aderhold throw?
Lucky for us, Ezra Aderhold also participated in Eagle McMahon’s “1 Mile Challenge”, where the goal was to throw as few shots as possible to beat the 1 mile distance marker. That’s ~1610 meters, 1760 yards or 5280 feet.
How did Ezra Aderhold perform in the 1 Mile Challenge?
Let’s take a deeper dive into Ezra Aderhold’s results on the “1 Mile Challenge” video. Just like many other professional and amateur disc golfers doing the challenge, Ezra also chose backhand shots for maximum distance.
Ezra completes the 1 mile challenge with 10 throws, averaging 528.5 feet (161 meters) a shot. Worst shot at 476 feet (145 meters) and best shot at 598 feet (182.27 meters).
Here’s all of the 10 throws Ezra threw: (1) 507′; (2) 482′; (3) 571′; (4) 598′; (5) 569′; (6) 476′; (7) 534′; (8) 481′; (9) 499′; (10) 568′. * = Farthest drive out of 10 throws.
Total Distance = 5285 feet.
The list of discs Ezra threw in the challenge: Discraft Force, prototype Kong = now named Zeus, Nuke.
How far can Ezra Aderhold throw?
Ezra Aderhold has thrown an Innova Boss to a distance of 656 feet (200 meters), this incredible feat was also captured by the GK Pro camera crew as Ezra and other professional disc golfers were playing OTB Tour Skins on the Disc Side of Heaven disc golf course. Though, we should take into consideration the fact that during his throw, there was a decent tailwind, which probably helped out quite a bit. Nonetheless, when the conditions are ideal and everything clicks, I am pretty sure Ezra Aderhold can throw bombs out there, which have the potential to break the 700 foot barrier (213+ meters).
