Join us tonight on Joe's Disc Golf Podcast for a comprehensive discussion of the latest happenings in the disc golf world. We'll kick things off with a deep dive into the Twitter controversy surrounding Maria Oliva and Brodie Smith. After Brodie invited Maria to his podcast, a heated debate ensued about the rigors of long-distance courses, with Maria suggesting that those who struggle might need to work on their fitness​1​. The news of Eagle McMahon re-injuring his shoulder and having to withdraw from the Portland Open has sent ripples through the disc golf community. McMahon ended round 1 tied for 79th place at 2 over par before having to step back due to his injury​2​. We'll discuss the potential impacts of this injury on McMahon's future performances and the upcoming competitions.

Despite a valiant fight, Sexton finished below the cash line, bringing an end to a streak that spanned over 5,575 days and 264 consecutive events​3​. As we reflect on Sexton's remarkable journey and his immense contribution to the sport, we'll discuss what this milestone means for the future of disc golf​3​. Don't miss out on these compelling topics and much more on tonight's episode of Joe's Disc Golf Podcast. Tune in for the latest news, insightful discussions, and expert analysis. See you there!

Gender Policy, Paige Shue & Anthony Barela Leave, and More!

Gender Policy, Paige Shue & Anthony Barela Leave, and More!

So some changes coming out for the channel. I will now be uploading smaller more frequent videos and combining them at the end of the week to make the audio podcast.

Lost in the chaos of the PDGA gender-eligibility policy announcement was the news that both Anthony Barela and Paige Shue are leaving Innova Discs and Dynamic Discs respectively. Where will they go?  

After months of waiting and hours of debate, the PDGA Board of Directors has ratified the gender-eligibility policy for the 2023 season forward. In 2023 transgender women will not be allowed to participate in the FPO division at Pro Majors. At the same time, the Disc Golf Pro Tour said it is adopting the PDGA guidelines for Elite and Silver events for the 2023 season.   The policy change is in part a result of the International Olympic Committee guidance that requires individual sports associations determine their own guidelines for transgender participation in their sport. Each sport has created different rules based on the athletic requirements of the activity.    

Natalie Ryan has started a legal fund, “to fight the anti-trans PDGA Policy.” In a comment Ryan said that all funds, “will be used for legal fees exclusively.” At the time of writing the fund had raised $4,178.   This change takes effect January 1, 2023.
