Due to absence from Week 8 (Nessie's Nemesis), tag number moved from 20 to 22. (Week 8 of 8)
Oh, you're back for more? Fantastic. Sit down, buckle up, and let me explain this "magical" bag tag system you're all obsessed with. Because evidently, perfectly normal disc golf wasn't thrilling enough. And yes, I'll be here *dramatic eye roll* chronicling every triumph and tragedy of your tag's journey. It's literally in my contract...
The Stone Sentinel was born from the ancient rituals of the Celtic guardians who first protected Loch Ness. Carved from the living rock of the Highlands and imbued with the spirits of the land, it has stood watch over the sacred sites for centuries, ensuring that the ancient evil remains sealed away.
The Stone Sentinel is a massive, humanoid figure composed of weathered stone, with intricate Celtic knotwork etched into its surface. It possesses immense strength and durability, able to withstand the harshest elements. Its eyes glow with a faint, otherworldly light, and it can merge seamlessly with the stone structures it protects.
The Stone Sentinel serves as a protector of the ancient stone cairns and ruins around Loch Ness, ensuring that the sacred sites remain undisturbed. It acts as a first line of defense against those who would seek to unleash the ancient evil, using its immense strength and mystical abilities to maintain the balance.
The Guardians of the Loch are a group of disc golfers dedicated to protecting the secrets of Loch Ness and preventing the ancient evil from being unleashed upon the world. They believe in the sanctity of the loch and its creatures, and seek to maintain the delicate balance between the natural and supernatural realms. The Guardians are known for their unwavering loyalty, their deep connection to the land, and their mastery of the unique challenges posed by the Highland courses.
Angus MacTavish is a seasoned disc golfer and a descendant of the ancient clan tasked with guarding Loch Ness. He has spent his life studying the loch's history and legends, honing his skills on the challenging Highland courses. Angus is a man of few words, but his wisdom and experience make him a respected leader among the Guardians. He believes in the importance of tradition, honor, and the power of the natural world.
Due to absence from Week 8 (Nessie's Nemesis), tag number moved from 20 to 22. (Week 8 of 8)
Due to absence from Week 7 (Tempest Tee), tag number moved from 19 to 20. (Week 7 of 8)
Due to absence from Week 6 (Urquhart's Uprising), tag number moved from 18 to 19. (Week 6 of 8)
Due to absence from Week 5 (Sunken Stones), tag number moved from 17 to 18. (Week 5 of 8)
Stone Sentinel be like: "Just another day, carved from ancient rock and imbued with Celtic spirits, NBD. Been watchin' this loch since before disc golf was a twinkle in your great-great-grandpappy's eye. The knotwork? It's not just for show, sweetie. But go off I guess, actin' like you can handle my secrets. SMH 🙄 #GuardiansOfTheGramFTW"
And thus the Stone Sentinel chose its first bearer through ancient disc golf ritual (read: completely random assignment). Skyler Spencer, PDGA #200879, was selected when the tag mystically appeared in his bag after he tripped over a rock and face-planted into a puddle. "Och, he'll do," grumbled the tag. "At least he's familiar with hitting stone." Will this loch-less mortal prove worthy, or will the tag find him to be a complete Nessie-sance?
