A look at The Trilogy Challenge

The 2018 Trilogy Challenge is in full swing, as tons of events across the country are being organized to raise funds and provide players with an awesome one-day tournament. If you’re new to the Trilogy Challenge idea, keep reading!

Each year, Dynamic Discs, Westside Discs, and Latitude 64 release a special disc that’s available only at these events. Anyone can run a Trilogy Challenge, and we make the process of registration, organizing players packs, and more super simple.

The format can be anything you want - a flex start, one round, random dubs, whatever you think will offer the best turnout in your area. Funds raised can go toward course improvements, club reserves, bag tags, or anything else that could benefit your local disc golf scene.

In this video, both Danny and Anthony played in a local Trilogy Challenge in Emporia. They got to chat with players to see how they liked this year’s discs, and are proud to report that the TD was able to raise over $500 for new tee pads at the New Life Church course.

Interested in running your own event or want to know when there’s going to be one in your neck of the woods? Visit the Trilogy Challenge website for all the details you need to get started.

Introducing the Patrol - The Midrange For Our 2018 Trilogy Challenge

Once again, it’s Trilogy Challenge time! It seems like just yesterday we were talking about last year’s set of discs, and already the 2018 season is upon us. In this year’s disc line-up, we have the Maiden as our putter, the Musket for your driver, and the Patrol as the midrange.

If you’re not familiar with the Trilogy Challenge, it’s a great way to play in a relaxed disc golf environment and get your hands on these three discs! Running a Trilogy Challenge is easier than you think, and the funds you raise can be used toward helping your local disc golf club, improving a local course, and so much more.

We got a chance to watch Bobby and Robert throw the Patrol and see how it flies for a pro player versus someone who plays more casually. Here’s what you need to know:

• It features a narrow rim that’s great for smaller handed players to grip
• You can expect it to turn a bit as it’s slightly understable
• The Patrol would be a great option for tightly wooded shots and does well when thrown softly and smoothly

We Check Out The Musket - The 2018 Trilogy Challenge Driver

It's that time again... that's right, it's Trilogy Challenge time! The 2018 Trilogy Challenge season is almost upon us, so we wanted to give you a heads up and take a peek at the three discs that will be included in this year's events.

In later posts, we'll get into more detail about the Maiden, this year's putter, and the Patrol, the 2018 midrange, but today we're getting an in-depth look at the Musket. A Latitude64 fairway driver, the Musket will be a great addition to anyone's bag.

When you have two minutes to spare, watch this video of Robert and Bobby throwing the Musket. It gives you a great idea how this disc will fly for you if you're a casual player or if your skills are at a professional level.

Here's the basics:

• As a speed 10 disc, the Musket has a comfortable profile without feeling like the rim is overly wide
• You'll get a nice amount of distance with a bit of fade if you're a casual player
• Pros will find the Musket has a slight turn to the right and holds your line incredibly well

Have You Tried A Trilogy Challenge Yet?

Regular competitors and casual players alike can agree on one thing when it comes to disc golf - summertime is an amazing time to play the game we love. If you're traveling around the country or are just looking for more events to play in around your local area, have you considered playing in a Trilogy Challenge?

Run by local players, not Dynamic Discs, these events are one-day tournaments that give players the opportunity to get their hands on exclusive discs and the chance to compete in a low-key and fun round. The format can vary, with some people preferring to host flex starts, shotgun starts, or even doubles.

Putting on a Trilogy Challenge is super easy - all you have to do is visit this link and fill in a few pieces of key information. We send you everything you need for a successful event, including sweet players packs with three discs, a t-shirt, mini, and more.

Looking to play in a Trilogy Challenge to test your skills or just get the chance to throw some of our newest plastic? You can find a full list of registered events here, and remember that they run through October so there's plenty of time left this summer season!

Are The Trilogy Challenge Discs Right For You?

Are you on the fence about playing in a Trilogy Challenge and wonder if the discs included might be right for you? Bobby and Eric go over each of the molds included in the 2017 Challenge and describe how they might fly if you’re a pro player or someone who plays casually.

The Pine

Westside Discs has a new stable midrange as part of the Challenge package this year. The Pine gives you control with a really nice feel in your hand and holds up great during windy conditions. It’s a nice compliment to the Warship in the Westside lineup and it’s a great disc for all skill levels. If you need to get a predictable flight path out of your disc, the Pine is the way to go.

The Deputy

Next up is the latest putter from Dynamic Discs - the Deputy. It’s an easy to throw beadless disc that’s great if you have smaller hands, and it’s the putter of choice for 3X World Champion Paige Pierce. The Deputy is a classic understable putter that will give you a straight line and an awesome glide. Casual players will be excited to see this disc flip up to flat, and those with higher arm speeds will find it holds whatever line you put it on.

The River Pro

Finally, we have a pro version of The River! As one of Latitude 64’s best-selling discs of all time, the River Pro is an easy to grip fairway driver that offers a domey profile and a smaller rim. This disc offers a great amount of glide and will be really predictable for a casual player. Pros will find this disc works great when you need an overstable go-to.

Remember, the only way to try these discs is to participate in a Trilogy Challenge, so visit the website to find an event near you.

Everything You Need To Know About The Trilogy Challenge

Maybe you’ve seen your local club post about an event called the Trilogy Challenge or you’ve heard it talked about on your favorite disc golf podcast, and you’ve wondered what exactly it is. Today we’re here to give you a quick breakdown of these awesome events and how they benefit everyone involved.

What Is A Trilogy Challenge?

A Trilogy Challenge is a versatile disc golf event package offered by Westside Discs, Latitude 64, and Dynamic Discs. With a scalable format, developed to make running and organizing a disc golf tournament both fun and easy, it’s the perfect toe in the water for both players and tournament directors alike.

For just $35 dollars each player receives a decked out players pack including one putter, one midrange, and one driver, as well as a shirt, a mini, and a reusable scorecard. If you’re lucky enough to find yourself near the top of the leaderboard, you could also be awarded a Mini Recruit disc golf basket, Micro Recruit disc golf basket, DyeMax discs, or a gift card redeemable at the Dynamic Discs website.

Why Would I Want To Play In One?

A Trilogy Challenge is a perfect event for newer players who perhaps have never played a disc golf tournament before. It’s also the exclusive way to try out three new disc molds before the stock release the following year. The value of the players pack alone far exceeds the entry fee, so when you play in a Trilogy Challenge you have already gotten your money’s worth just by showing up.

Even if you’re a veteran of the tournament scene, a Trilogy Challenge is a fun way to keep your competitive skills sharpened. Maybe you don’t have much time to tour or play anymore, but you want to practice certain aspects of your mental game. Grab your friends and create your own group to go play in a fun event.

How Can I Run A Trilogy Challenge?

The registration process takes just a few minutes and when your package arrives, you’ll find each individual player’s pack comes pre-bundled. For anyone who has spent hours putting together items the night before an event, you know that this feature makes the tournament a breeze to run.

Dynamic Discs has taken all the hiccups out of running an event by streamlining and optimizing the whole process, allowing you to sit back and enjoy your tournament with very little stress. As a tournament director of a Trilogy Challenge, the playing format is up to you. Whether you want to run a doubles event, a flex start C-Tier, or a juniors only event, you have the autonomy to shape things to best suit your needs.
