How Bag Tags Work in Our League 🥏
Bag tags are a fun way to track player rankings and add a competitive edge to our disc golf league. Here's how they work:
- 🏷️ Tag Assignment: Each player is assigned a unique bag tag with a number and custom artwork. Lower numbers are better!
- 🎯 Up for Grabs: In each league event, all participating players' bag tags are "up for grabs."
- 📊 Ranking by Performance: After the event, bag tags are redistributed based on players' scores. The best-performing player gets the lowest-numbered tag, and so on.
- 🔄 Tag Exchanges: If you outperform a player with a lower-numbered tag, you'll exchange tags with them.
- 🛡️ Defending Your Tag: If you perform well enough to keep your current tag number or better, you've successfully "defended" your tag.
- ⏳ Inactive Tags: If you miss two league events in a row, you forfeit your tag.
- 🆕 New Players: Newcomers receive their tag at the end of the list after their first event.
🏆 Tiebreaker Rules:
In case of ties, we use the following criteria to determine tag distribution:
- Number of league events played in the current league (more is better)
- Average score across all events played in the current league (lower is better)
- PDGA number (lower is better)
🏁 End of Season: At the end of the season, your final bag tag will be permanently displayed on your ElevateUT Disc Golf Leagues account as a testament to your performance.
Remember, bag tags are all about friendly competition and bragging rights. Good luck, and may the best player earn the #1 tag! 🥇
Buzzard Spin's Current Holder
Tag History
Adjusts falconry glove while studying the evening sky
Ah, what a fascinating display we witnessed tonight! Tag #10 'Buzzard Spin' has found a new bearer in Chris, who demonstrated the patient hunting style of a red-tailed hawk in these challenging conditions. Like a raptor adapting to shifting winds, they soared three strokes below the field average, despite the course's new layout testing every competitor's instincts.
Their +6 performance might appear modest to the untrained eye, but as any seasoned falconer knows, true mastery isn't measured in single strikes, but in consistent pursuit. While their 916-rated flight dipped slightly below their usual 926 hunting altitude, they showed remarkable resilience - particularly in those five bounce-back pars that would make any Cooper's Hawk proud.
'Buzzard Spin' seems to recognize a kindred spirit in Chris - both sharing that methodical, calculating approach that marks the most successful aerial predators. Yet, as I've observed countless times in my years studying migration patterns, this may just be a temporary perch. The winds of competition blow ever stronger, and next week brings fresh thermals to ride.
As the ancient Talon Masters would say, "Sometimes you must fold your wings before you can truly soar." This tag's journey is far from over, and I suspect we'll see both bearer and tag testing their wings at even greater heights soon enough.
🦅 Until then, this is Hawkeye Ravenscroft, ever watching the skies. 🦅
