Ashes Ascending
Phoenix Rising: A Disc Golf Saga of Elemental Rebirth
In a world where ancient prophecies foretell the rise of the legendary Phoenix, two factions clash in a battle for the ages on the hallowed grounds of Dow James Disc Golf Course.
The wise Aria Emberheart leads the Ashen Pilgrims, believers in the Phoenix's power of rebirth and renewal. But the enigmatic Zephyr Shadowcloak and the shadowy Obsidian Sentinels stand in their way, determined to prevent the fiery resurrection at all costs.
Eight sacred sites. Four elemental trials. One destiny.
From the ashes of the Phoenix's pyre, a quest begins. Flaming baskets ignite the sky as players brave blistering putting challenges. Howling winds carry discs across shimmering lakes, testing the mettle of even the most skilled throwers. Mysterious portals beckon from within the depths of cavernous tunnels.
In the ashes of defeat, the embers of hope still glow.
Alliances will be forged and rivalries inflamed as the race to gather powerful artifacts consumes all. Tensions rise with each hole conquered, each secret unlocked. An ancient tablet, a whispering pendant, a smoldering feather - clues to a fiery reckoning.
When the inferno beckons, who will heed the call?
Phoenix Rising. This summer, witness the disc golf saga that will reshape the world. Choose your side...before it's too late.
Fly. Fight. Burn bright.

*Adjusts name tag reading "Trapped Narrator"* Oh good, you're here. Welcome to what happens when disc golfers discover fantasy novels. I've been forced to narrate this epic saga of plastic throwing at Dow James, where every Wednesday through April 23rd, players pretend they're on some grand Phoenix-related quest instead of just trying to avoid hitting trees.
Entry is $5 base buy-in, plus optional buys for prize pool ($10), ace pot ($3), and super ace ($2). Currently sitting at a whopping $195 ace pot - turns out being reborn in flames doesn't help your accuracy. Who knew?
Flex start any time between 7AM and 6PM because apparently even mythical creatures need to work around their day jobs. Currently on Week 5 of 8: Pyre's Purification (I didn't name these, don't blame me).
Facilitated by ElevateUT Disc Golf, a non-profit determined to make disc golf rise like a... *checks notes* ...Phoenix. Yes, I'm being forced to say these things. But hey, at least Another Round Disc Golf gives amateurs a 10% boost on winnings!
Late joiners still welcome! Because nothing says "epic quest" like jumping in halfway through. *whispers* Help me, I'm trapped in this league software and they won't let me leave until someone hits an ace...
