About Fry Guy

I dyed my first disc in September of 2022 - it was a yellow Star Wraith that became literal camouflage due to my reckless choice of dye colors and style. After a few more attempts with my ProChem starter pack, I finally managed to make a disc that I was proud of. I dyed up my whole bag and then tucked away my supplies, since the job was done.

After a few jumps around the US, the moving box labelled "disc dye stuff" found its way into the garage of our new home in Northern Colorado. I had played a few flex tournaments in 2023 and didn't want to spend the earnings on any more discs (with a toddler and another on the way, my disc collection had outgrown our family's comfort level). So, I opted to cash out a 12-color dye pack from a local disc retailer in Denver. 

Getting my hands on some more colors was the kick I needed dust off that moving box and start dyeing up the discs in my bag again. After a few secondhand sales of used discs among friends and strangers alike on marketplace apps, I decided to list a dyed disc – the fastest sale I had made yet. List another – sold. Upped the price – sold. It became clear that I was starting to make some discs that folks liked, and I was hooked.

The disc golf industry is brand-obsessed. Confident that I could make something of this hobby, I brought back my college nickname "Fry Guy" and slapped together a logo. Started buying all the white discs I could find. Having experienced the rigor of the disc golf secondhand market, I already had a feeling I knew what would sell.

One year in, we've eclipsed 1,000 discs dyed, with new friends now bagging Fry Guy Dyes in 49 out of 50 states (looking at you, Hawaii!).
