Week 5 · Horn Sounds
The halfway point is marked by the ceremonial sounding of the horn. The league pauses to recognize the riders currently holding the lead, while the hounds regroup for the second half of the chase.
The horn sounds at the halfway mark, riders and hounds still baying through the cottonwoods, and somewhere out there the quarry is just... a scorecard with better numbers than yours.
Welcome back to the booth, where the Forest Lord has decreed another week of chase through the Urban Forest. The Spanish Fork River trail is our chase line, the oak stands hide antlers if you stare too long, and Hole 13's hazard island remains where quarry goes to get cornered. I'm just the narrator, contractually obligated to make plastic-hitting-metal sound like an epic saga. Spoiler: it kind of is one, and I hate how much I mean that.
Week 5 is the ceremonial Horn Sounds episode - the halfway point where we pause to acknowledge the riders currently holding the lead, while the hounds regroup for the second half of the chase. Seven souls braved the Hollow Oak last week and averaged -5, which means the forest was generous or the players are just that good. Probably both.
The league splits into two factions, because apparently one existential threat isn't enough. The Fractured Fill is the quarry - chaotic overspray, distressed texture, the raw imperfect reality beneath the hunt. The Silhouette Stalkers are the riders and hounds - sharp stencil cuts, aggressive precision, no room for error. Together they're a spray-paint mural in motion, and I'm the only one who seems to notice the metaphor.
Every Monday through November 9, the Urban Forest awakens. All 18 holes, par 54, roughly 5,000 feet of technical wooded chaos - mandos dictating your flight path like the forest lord's decrees, the paved walking path serving as out-of-bounds (the mortal boundary, if you will), and Hole 13's hazard island waiting to swallow your hopes. The course is free to play, dog-friendly, and judgmental of your upshot decisions.
The hunt costs $5.50 weekly, plus your dignity. For the full experience, add $5 to the prize pool, $5 to the ace pot, and $2 for the super ace. That's $17.50 to chase plastic through the woods with your friends, which honestly beats most subscription services.
The ace pot sits at $168.41, a handsome bounty for anyone who can thread the needle and hear that sweet chain music. No one claimed it last week at Hollow Oak - the forest kept its secrets, and the pot kept growing.
The horn sounds and we survey the field. Kellan Brooke leads RAE with 187 points across all 9 events - perfect attendance, which in this league is either devotion or a curse. Chris Fox (RAH, 126 points) and Malachi Vazquez (RPA, 128 points) are also riding perfect streaks, while Kent Moos holds RAD with 82. RAG is less a race and more a coronation - Blaine Callahan at 90 points while the pack sits at 10.
To survive the Wild Hunt, you must speak its tongue. Horn, hound, antler, quarry, rider, oak, dusk, chase. The river trail is the chase line, the island on 13 is the corral, and the trees are full of antlers if you look too long. The season arcs from treaty to curse spent, and we are exactly at the turning. The stencil hoofprints on the trail are fresh, the horn is sounding, and somewhere out there, your scorecard is the quarry.
ElevateUT Disc Golf, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, runs this whole spectacle to grow the sport through quality venues and events. They're the ones keeping the forest lord's league operational, and for that, we thank them. Birdcage Disc Golf supports the league as a local retail partner - swing by for your discs, your putters, and your excuses.
The horn has sounded. The hounds are loose. The quarry is you, if you're brave enough. From the booth, I'm Flippy, and I'll see you in the trees.
