Marshall Street Flight Guide Updated!

[Donovan]

Marshall Street has updated their flight guide! (I emailed them 2 days ago) Talk about a fast turnaround. Great job as always on customer service.

I like where the Quarter K II from Discwing ended up. I agree with that one completely.

I thought it was funny that when you ordered from them you got the updated chart in your order, but the web site had the old chart. Nice to finally see the new chart up.

I want to know how they make this stuff up. No way is a Beast more stable than a Valk...

i assume they had to do some juggling to fit ALL of the discs on a grid not just Innova. They are in the ballpark with all the discs.

they did a great job - it's a good tool to reference to see how other discs fly in relation to each other when you are buying a disc. Since all companies use different metrics to classify their discs. Since it's hard to compare a 10/5/-2/-2 Beast to a +1.7 Surge and the fact that older drivers and midranges are still called "Extra Long Range Drivers" taking the chart at 100% face value and complaining about ticky tack placements considering the design isn't very smart.

- they also seem to feel these discs are similar speeds despite what the manufacturer says -its good to have an independent analysis.

so technically a speed 9* Valk thrown at the Beast speed of 10* would be more understable than the Beast at the higher speed - thus allowing them to say its more understable at the 10* speed

*innova speed


Sad they got rid of the "YEAH BABY" speed 8

Maybe that is where "The Boss" will fall :D

HAHA Yes Probably --- they put the Xcal there, then took it away. I totally thought i was THE MAN (good 14 speed driver name) cause i was in "YEAH BABY" territory.

I totally agree. This thing has errors all over it.

The main flaw of this chart is that it doesn't account for glide.

Someone needs to invent a robot arm that consistently throws the same every time. Then use it to test discs and come up with a flight chart that way.

DUH!!! Thanks bro, I have been so forgetful lately.

Anyway, keep in mind those column sections down can be like three spaces wide. So, all three next to each other could be identical too. Anyway, I just wanted to share that it was up. Now you can compare and argue for fun.

Oh and don't forget Joe's Flight Chart (http://gottagogottathrow.com/discgolf/pdf/JoesFlightChart1.pdf?osCsid=234553dbaac1826ace9216 e74b3ae25c).

i liked the old guide a bit more. just due to the fact it gave them more room to spread out the discs.. there is no way the orc/beast/valkyrie are all the same speed
