Disc Loyalty Pledges

Totally ripping this off of Discspeed and DGR btw.

Since I'm nearing a point of fine-tuning the bag, I feel like swapping discs in and out has a real chance of hurting my game so I'm going to commit myself to the following molds for the rest of the year:

Eagles (may convert to PDs in 2011)
Magics (was thinking about using the Ions for putting as well as approaching but I've already committed to a little practice stack of Magics)
Nebulae
Comets
xXx ( god I hope I can learn to FH this decent)
Ions
Halos

Who among us is also ready to commit?

My fairly solid at this point. There are still some testing going on.

This is my commitment to keep for the year:
LAT 64
Opto Blitz
Opto Halo
Striker
Vision
Discraft
Elite-Z Stalker
Elite-X Stratus
Buzzz
Innova
R-Pro Boss
Champion Teebird
Champion Sidewinder
Gateway
Voodoo

Still testing these out to fit possible holes in my bag/game:
Lat 64 Opto Trident
Lat 64 Opto Riot
Discraft ESP Nuke
Discraft Elite-Z Surge
Discwing Quarter K
Innova Pro Katanna
Innova Pro Wraith

Changes I'm considering now:
Taking out Innova Super Roc
Adding Discwing Quarter K II (again)

I cant say I would commit to anything. Even my beloved Teebird and Leopard combo is at risk; BUT there is something to be said about not looking for a disc that will do it all; I am just still trying to get down to as few molds as possible. I think I can commit to the Core, Pred, Flick and Wizard though.

Current bag, commitments in bold for 2010:

Voodoo
Roc
Gazelle (could replace w/ Eagles, but unlikely)
Whippet
Predator
Avenger (could replace w/ OLF)
Wraith (could go back to Surge)

And those I didn't commit to, I listed the potential replacement. It's unlikely that I'd pull the Gazelles, but if some things change with increased distance capability and control, I might.

I've been messing around with the stable speed 9 stuff, so far liking the Avenger the best, but the OLF is a possibility. Probably not the PD or the Striker, though.

XXX is too overstable for me, so the Predator is safe.

Wraith is working in Pro plastic for me right now, but if Discraft made the Surge in Elite X in normal weights, I would stay with it.

Yeah, I'm with you. I'm committed to you being committed to your bag. Now can we start talking about our feelings?

Easy commitments:
Buzzz
Valkyrie
Predator

And because I need to use one mold of putter for more than 6 months....

I'll commit to my Ions. The only thing stopping this is if MVP Discs comes out with another great putter.
