He was also throwing a Saint. My understanding is a lot of the prodigy players are also throwing wizards.

Myself...I am with the people looking at what's next from DD. So far, I haven't been disappointed in any of their initial releases.

Well, I'm sure Nikko has enough in his basement to supply the whole team three or four times over. Makes me thing the first Prodigy putter will be similar to a Wizard..but in what plastic, I wonder?

Pretty sure Nikko sold his huge basement stash at once to a member here. I'm sure he still has enough to fill a few bags though.

Prodigy mid proto I saw was a gummy plastic Pain copy. Didn't excite me in the least.

Wonder why Will would throw a Buzzz, when he could still throw his Rocs?

Sounds like he's purposely distancing himself from Innova, except when a playoff throw is on the line.

Or maybe he had a chance to throw a Buzzz and liked it more than a Roc. His motives don't have to be sinister here. It could just be opportunity and preference.

He may have always preferred the roc, but could not throw it before. Team prodigy is team whatever we want to throw for a good long while til they have a full lineup. These guys could be throwing mixed bags for the next couple years. It's interesting to see what they throw when they have the choice. But in all honesty who cares? I cannot ever make a buzzz do what will does so I am okay with that.

This is my favorite post in this whole thread! I read it like this:

Why would Will eat a steak when he could have a Big Mac?

Just messing with ya! Seriously, though...those wasted years watching opponents throw straight and controlled shots down tight fairways while he has to work his ass off to keep his Roc on the tightest line possible. I bet he picked up his Buzzzes the same day he decided he was leaving Innova.
