Rose Hill senior Avery Tagtow has been playing golf since he was about six years old, but it wasn’t until he was a freshman in high school when he started taking it seriously. Tagtow is also a motocross rider who puts a lot of his free time in doing that as well.
“I have never done motocross competitively but have always just raced with friends around my track at my house and at there,” Tagtow said. “Even though the two sports are very different in their own ways I have always had a strong love for them both in their own ways.”
That isn’t all there is for Tagtow, he also loves the outdoors.
“My love for the outdoors has always been strong since I was a little kid, it all started when my dad and grandpa pulled me out of school one day to go duck hunting with them,” Tagtow said. “From there the love for the outdoors continued to grow and discover most of my favorite hobbies I have now. Things like duck and deer hunting, fishing and just being outside.”
The senior knows that the outdoors and hunting will always be a part of his life because of the true love his family has for their time together out there.
“(The outdoors) means a lot to me because of how I was introduced to the games and hobbies you can do outdoors, just them being shown to me by my dad and grandpa gives them a special place in my heart that will always be there.”
