When I saw Sun King's post this morning, I thought someone must have fallen off a cliff.
Hit by a disc from another fairway?
No clue. Would carry zippo weight under Assumption of Risk doctrine in my state- no idea on Florida.
Any good articles on both sides of the story or are we still in the "everybody's overreacting to rumors" phase?
I have that from an unreliable source....the comments section of Sun King's Facebook post.
Also, that he' s played tournaments on that course before, and that he owns a disc golf store in town.
Obviously, there's a lot I don't know, but my preliminary guess is that he may be on the way to being the most unpopular person in disc golf. Or out of it.
He tends to play every division he is eligible for at Throw Down. Also is the owner of OTB discs (people cite big problems with his company as well.). If anyone understood the risk of playing disc golf and being on a disc golf course it was Trevor. He has also likely signed the waiver 20-30 times in his life. This will get dropped as soon as it gets in front of a judge IMO. That said if the course is to reopen and stay open, some actions should be taken for safety (pads and safer walking trails).

Local Route discs maybe? Pretty sure not OTB.

I met Trevor back in 2016 and threw with him a couple times. He does indeed own Local Route. His store has moved locations a couple times since I moved out of the area, but I believe his store is still in the city of Clearwater. He is getting a lot of heat in the Tampa Bay area on social media. There are a lot of people that do not like him. I've heard a lot of bad stories regarding interactions with him to the point where I question his authenticity. I've never had a poor interaction myself.
