Epoch Lacrosse Releases Limited Edition Gold Dragonfly 7 Lacrosse Stick

U.S. Design and Technology company Epoch Lacrosse has been equipping lax-ers with quality equipment since they began in 2011. With keen attention to detail and knowledge of what’s important in regards to lacrosse equipment design, Epoch Lacrosse has released the next of kin in their Dragonfly series of lacrosse sticks: the Dragonfly 7 Gold.

James Miceli, co-owner and founder of Epoch Lacrosse, told Inside Lacrosse that the Dragonfly 7 is by far their most advanced design. “By using the latest materials and technology,” Miceli told IL, “we’ve constructed a shaft with exceptional design consistency and top-grade material to provide players with a quality product.”

Epoch is always searching to understand the deeper workings of lacrosse, and they’ve showed this in manufacturing their product through a vertical integration system in the U.S. This allows the company to have complete and utter control of the production process, beginning in research and development. So, it should come as no surprise as to why they’ve been so successful in producing such high-performance products.

The Dragonfly 7 features gameplay enhancements like Epoch’s torque-box technology, as well as their Intelligent Weave, or carbon fiber composite, which was designed to create a lightweight handle that will keep your hands stable and push energy toward the head of the stick while passing or shooting.

Not only are these lacrosse sticks built with the best technology on the market, Epoch Lacrosse has weaved some of their Dragonfly technology with a little bit of limited edition steez, equipping the D7 with a gold colored shaft. These gold shafts were created to commemorate the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Final Four in late May — and unfortunately, the Dragonfly 7 C60 Gold size is sold out.

Luckily for you, though, the Dragonfly 7 C30 Gold is still available on Epoch Lacrosse’s website for $140.

Going to the Smoky Mountains in June? Watch out for these closures
Great Smoky Mountains National Park

Repairs and renovations at the Great Smoky Mountains National Park continue as the National Park Service continues to prepare the mountains for the 2025 summer season. If you're planning on visiting the Smokies in June, watch out for these spring closures that could add additional travel time to your trip.

First, off, let's look at the closures affecting sections of Little River Road. The first one will take place from June 3rd through 4th, from 7:00 a.m. to noon. During this time, there will be no direct travel from Townsend Wye to Metcalf Bottoms Picnic Area, so visitors will need to detour through Wears Valley Road (US 321) between Townsend and Line Springs Road.

This simple camping trick keeps bugs away without harsh chemicals
Looking to keep the bugs away with a natural solution? Try sage
Camping around a fire

Modern chemical bug repellents, while generally safe, can be a great way to keep away those pesky mosquitoes. However, these repellants often contain harsh chemicals, such as DEET, picaridin, and permethrin, which have been known to cause skin irritation risks, poison water sources, or even be toxic to wildlife. The NIH reports that these chemical repellents are not safe for public health and should be used with caution. Natural bug repellents like tea tree oil work great when diluted and sprayed onto skin, but what can you do to keep the bugs away from your campsite? Here's my sage advice for saying "shoo fly, don't bother me."
Use sage to keep the bugs away

Sage is a common herb that acts as a natural bug repellent due to several compounds such as camphor, 8-cineole, and thujone, which produce a strong aroma that repels insects by overwhelming their sensory systems. It has an herbaceous aroma that's both strong and earthy, and can often be slightly peppery or woody in scent. Personally, I find it to be more pleasant than tea tree oil, so it can be a great alternative.

When you're just getting started with golf, you may not realize that there are several different kinds of golf balls, each tailored for a specific skill level, swing speed, or other priorities. The choices can be overwhelming, but they boil down to three kinds: two piece, three piece, and four piece. So now you might be wondering, what golf ball should I use? In this guide, we're going to discuss the three major kinds of golf balls and how to choose the best one for you.

When choosing a golf ball, you'll first need to assess your skill level, swing speed, priorities for distance control, materials, and budget. These five factors aren't the only things to consider, but they will get you to a great starting point. The key is to understand the construction and performance characteristics of each golf ball. In a nutshell, two-piece, also known as low-compression balls, prioritize distance and are great for beginners. Three-piece golf balls have better control for more intermediate players, while still giving you great distance. And lastly, the four-piece golf balls, or high-compression balls, are perfect for advanced players for their precision. Here's the breakdown:
