I finally got back to tournament play over the weekend, after eight months away. It took a while to shake off the nerves, but I managed to snag 3rd place in MA4 with an 856 event rating. I also won a long drive competition afterward. Galesburg, IL, is home to a couple of amazing courses - a fine place to dip my feet back into competitive play.

Next up: Running With The Devil, Bettendorf, IA.

@discwithmolly captured my @throwproud jersey debut.

We are talking about people’s lives, do better and BE better.

Disc golf is an amazing sport for ALL people, we need to encourage growth instead of squandering it!

A decision as disappointing, as it was predictable. One with antiquated thinking, quite literally, at its core.

Happy Pride Month! I'm in Colorado for the Trash Panda birthday celebration, so I had to check out the world's busiest course! I brought a stack of Throw Proud stickers with me, and this post seemed to be the perfect place to leave one... taken in Johnny Roberts Disc Golf Course by @throwproud

Are you in Manitowoc this week? Do you want to hang out with other members of the queer community? Come join us at Ryan's on York this Thursday from 7-9pm! They've got great food, and a great selection of drinks (including NA options, if that's your preference). We'd love to see you, and celebrate each other's existence! A Google Maps link will be in our bio, and in our Instagram story.

We're not typically one to get on the pride month merch bandwagon, but team member Amanda Branch (@skamanda42 ) wanted to put something special together in time for USWDGC, and since there are so many communities in need of support, it seemed like a great opportunity to toss these up for anyone who wants to let others know they're safe with you. The art on the jersey is from a pair of watercolor paintings Amanda did, so there is some blending of the colors (that was intentional, if not entirely possible to control - watercolor is a fickle mistress 😅). It's available in both feminine and unisex cuts, and is the same high quality jersey we've had available since last year!

Happy Pride, everyone! Are you safe? Are you hydrated? Do you have your found family nearby? What's that? You don't have found family? Well WE'RE you family now! 😤💅 It's hard out there lately, and like the game says, "it's dangerous to go alone!" The best way to get through the hate that's being spread around so freely is to have a community to be a part of. Remember, it's not just queer people who are targeted right now - and when it comes to the marginalized, ALL ARE WELCOME HERE!

For real, if you're feeling isolated and alone right now, that's NOT okay. Hit us up, we'll send you the link to our Discord, where you can share a safe space with friends in the community, and our allies. We'll make it through this together. 🫶

Never a dull moment in Nashville! We know a lot of people have been expecting us to speak out on this. In the interest of not fostering further anger, we want to speak on a different aspect of it that we feel is an excellent opportunity to build community, rather than divide it. Apologies for the small text on mobile - there was a lot to say!

I've played against Jami in tournaments, and it was probably the most stressful event I've ever played. Not because Jami is stressful to be around - she's a lot of fun! She DOES, however, have the uncanny habit of canning a putt from 90 feet out, when her opponent is trying to gain a stroke on her. 😅 When one of our own needed help, I was so happy to see Jami stepped up to give aid. That's exactly the sort of person we like to have in our family.
