ParaLong Drive events feature amputee (leg, arm, multiple), blind or Paramobile (paralyzed) golfers. The ParaLong Drive Worlds will be held at the Mesquite Sports & Event Complex Oct. 16-17, when the top North American, European and New Zealand disabled long ball hitters will compete for their respective world titles.
Among the qualifiers for that event are Brandon Jacks and Jared Brentz. At the ParaLong Nationals in Mesquite this past May, Jacks became the first golfer with an amputated leg to break the 400-yard-drive barrier in competition with his 401-yard shot. Brentz then stepped up and blasted a 409-yard drive to take the title.
