Hey dgcoursereviewers been looking to kinda trim the fat out of my bag for a while now. I'd like to say I'm pretty good but would really just like to grab a bunch of info from you guys. When I first started I bought a bunch of discs and just kinda started throwing them and so my disc selection for certain shots was always very specific. I've more recently been trying to consolidate the amount of unique molds that I have in my bag so that I can start having one or two discs take care of the jobs I have 6 for. Any and all advice, pointers, criticisms, etc. are encouraged. I am looking to be better, bottom line. Thanks in advance for the help guys. -TRON
Vitals:
Right-Handed
Throwing Style: RHBH mostly, FH if it suits the whole, proficiency in all utility throws
Golf Distance (avg/max*) for putter/mid/driver: SS Omega: 200/250' (really only use for putting though); Buzzz: 250/300'; Stalker: 300-350/400'; Boss: 400+/625'
What do you like/dislike about your current bag?: I really like the consistency I have in the short/midrange/shorter drive category but would like to consolidate the discs for some areas of my game so that I can become perfectly proficient with a few different discs in my bag.
Immediate and long-term goals: I'd like to consolidate my bag asap and in the long term become very good with a few select discs.
Bag:
Drivers (weight/plastic/model/(condition)/use):
173 Champion Boss, (beat) - main driver
174 Champion Boss, (used but stable) - straight line distance
175 Champion Boss, (newish) - overstable distance
172 Star Boss, (used but stable) - FH distance
175 Champion Teerex (beat) - tunnel with a skip at the end/ hard hyzer spike shots
175 Champion Teerex (beat) - same as above (first disc was a rex so I collected champ ones)
175 Champion Wraith (beat) - anhyzer distance
175 Champion Roadrunner (beat) - rollers
175 Champion Monarch (in between new and beat) - utility (tomahawk, thumber, etc.)
Fairways:
175 Champion 11x FLAT Firebird (beat still crazy overstable) - Hard left skip shots
175 Z Stalker (newish) - go to Fairway
Mids:
176 CryZtal Buzzz, (newish) - main mid
178 ESP FLX Buzzz (beat) - little more understable buzzz lines/finesse mid
Putters:
3x 175 Black SS Omegas (beat) - putting
The things that I can see is that my fairway game needs to be added to since the majority of holes I play I can reach with these drivers and obviously have more control than I have with my bosses. I am IN LOVE with my Buzzzes and would like to kinda shape my game around them (they are my goto from under 300' sometimes out to 350' depending on the whole). I am really liking my stalker as well because (for me) it flies like the buzzz which makes me start thinking about picking up some more discraft in place of some of my other discs (ie Nukes for Bosses, Predator for my Firebird etc.) I definitely will probably grab some more stalkers as well. also if there are any molds that are kinda close to a buzzz or stalker but might be better for wind or other scenarios feel free to comment.
And finally thanks again for any and all help everybody, Keep Calm and Putt Strong.
