Guildmate Gauntlet​ – Feb 2023

February Theme:

For the Love
of the game

Overview

What is the Guildmate Gauntlet?
Each month two new fellow dyers will go head to head in a themed dyeing contest, winner-take-all!

This Months Theme.
The theme for February will be “For the Love of the Game”. With love in the cold crisp air, what do you love about disc golf and the sport? It could be the peacefulness of being outdoors, or it could be having a good time with some buddies. Use your amazing imagination and talent to come up with a unique dye on the provided Premiere Disc War Dove. Anything goes, any style or technique is free game!

This is not a popularity contest, and the winner will be chosen by four judges that are all disc dyers. The winner will receive the entry pot and bragging rights!
