the beadless gators are still around but rarely see them. that would be first choice but the zone is really nice...it is a midrange of sorts...and you get the added windy day putter, flick upshot with control. Also no bead were the gator has the tiniest of micro beads.

I was going to suggest this. Way too over stable for me, but keeping in the backup boxes for when my arm gets "up to speed."

Apparently size does matter.

You can clearly see the bead where the light hits the disc below the weight sticker.

The Trident is more of a fairway driver than a mid. The Blaze is a borderline mid...almost fairway driver.

If you are looking for a fairly beefy non-beaded mid, I would recommend a Drone, Zone or Demon. Also, the E-Warrior from Gateway is a pretty beefy mid, but has a micro bead similar to the hornet.

I really like the Star Cro if you're looking for something w/o a ton of glide. Also, as has been stated earlier, the beadless Star Gator is a great disc...pretty beefy...but hard to find. I'm glad I've got one!

With so many Zone recommendations, I gotta mention the Jokeri....the Rhyno w/ wings!

Not as OS, but still plenty beefy.

Premium plastic is very similar to MVP Protons (between soft and medium)

Exactly. You can call it small bead, if you want, but it's a bead.
