The storm clouds gathered for “Traitor’s Sting” as Beacon Hill Park Disc Golf unleashed its wildest winds upon three intrepid competitors in Week 7 of 8. The penultimate clash of Legends Reborn Blue was shaped by 14 mph gusts and overcast skies, setting the stage for a day where new legends were written, records tumbled, and the serpent of fortune coiled and struck without warning. With tension mounting and the fate of season standings at stake, two personal bests electrified the course while a dramatic lead change on the back nine hinted at fractures worthy of the saga’s name. 🥏💨
In the MA4 division, Timothy Scholle stood alone—an unchallenged warrior battling not his peers but the elements themselves. With determination carved from ancient rune-stone, Scholle braved the whistling wind to post a career-best +1, mastering Beacon Hill’s gnarled oaks and mischievous gusts on his own terms. If the legend is true that Odin himself plotted the crosswinds as a final ordeal, then today, Scholle proved himself worthy of the gods’ gaze, earning top honors in a field of one by conquering the fiercest adversary of all: the course itself. 📈⛰️
The battle in MPO summoned its own share of epic reversals. Malachi Vazquez (–2, Rating 950) carved a bloody mark in the annals of Beacon Hill, snatching victory from Baylor Sandberg (–1, Rating 939) in a contest rocked by shifting momentum. Sandberg opened with a show of might, taking the lead with a birdie on Hole 1, while Vazquez unleashed a flaming hot streak, notching birdies on four of the next seven holes. The Kraken’s shadow seemed to flicker across the fairways as Vazquez faltered on Holes 9–12, relinquishing his advantage before summoning a final surge to reclaim glory. In a twist befitting ancient betrayal songs, Sandberg’s own furious charge—a personal-best –1—kept both warriors in the hunt until the closing chains fell silent. The mountain winds had spoken, and by Odin’s beard, the outcome remained uncertain until the very end. 🔥🌲
This week was marked by not one, but two feats of personal greatness: Timothy Scholle’s +1 and Baylor Sandberg’s –1 each set new course records for the layout, etching their names into Beacon Hill’s mythic ledgers. Meanwhile, Malachi Vazquez weathered the gale to finish two under par, outperforming his rating by eight mystical strokes—a feat surely blessed by Thor’s own hammer, if you look closely enough at the shifting clouds. 📊⚡
But even as records fell, no treasures surfaced from the deep this week. The Ace Pot and Super Ace remained as untouched as the Kraken’s hoard—silent evidence, perhaps, that the true battles were waged elsewhere, as resilience was measured in heart rather than gold. 🏆🧭
The undertow of “Traitor’s Sting” coursed through every shifting lead and mid-round stumble, mirroring the betrayals and doubts dividing the heroes within our saga. Like hidden runes beneath gnarled bark, today’s faltering hot streaks and sudden comebacks hinted at deeper fissures—alliances swaying in the wind, vulnerabilities exposed as if by Loki’s hand. Even the very course bore the stamp of ancient conspiracies, woven into every unpredictable bounce and swirling gust.
With only one test remaining, the gauntlet tightens. Next week will see champions made and the next seal—whether for binding or unleashing the Kraken’s fury—decided at Beacon Hill’s finale. The gods watch, the runes whisper, and all who remain must steel themselves for the most fateful round yet. The power to shape the endgame awaits—who shall claim it? 🥏⚔️
