Give a gold line light weight Lat 64 XXX a shot. I personally use a purple 167g one. The farthest I've gotten it was parking the flat 435' hole 16 at dela in the Master's Cup this year. The disc flies similar to a firebird for overhead shots, but I find its pan to me much smoother which...
I was on Simons card today. He wasn't so much driving different lines, but he was hitting every single putt. He had a few 60+ birdie putts that I wouldn't even consider running.
150-250 Neutron Anode
250-300 Roc3 or Pinnacle Cannon (Tomahawk)
300-350 Roc3 or Champ Firebird (Tomahawk)
350-400 Avery Star Teebird
400-500 Star Xcal
500-600 Bottom Stamp Star Boss
This is all assuming I'm in a giant field and don't have to do any special shot shaping.
Heres a video showing some throws. It can be a bit hard to track the discs because I couldnt use zoom, but it is possible if you watch in hd. Sorry about the shanks on a couple throws haha.

I've never really thrown the stock stamp star bosses, but the bottom stamp one I have is quite domey, some may call it "pop top". The plastic certainly is one of the more flexible blends of star plastic I've felt. Comparing it to other drivers, it seems to hold its anhyzer line for a longer...
Hey all, I am the one being referred to. It was a 175g bottom stamp star boss, and no, just a standard run up. I can get destroyers out to just under 600 on a "perfect" throw, but these bosses have potential for to get another 20-30 feet for me. I am definitely a fan, they are incredible.
I played baseball for ~10 years before disc golf, so had the tomohawk machanics from the start. I can throw my Lat 64 XXX up to 415', whereas I cant get the destroyers/boss that I normally backhand past 360'. On the flip side, I can backhand the distance drivers 100' farther than the XXX. I...
Here's a semi alternative shaving cream dye method I came up with last night. Let me know if its been done before, I just hadn't seen it anywhere personally.

Heres an alternate shaving cream method I sorta made up last night. It may have been done before, but I haven't really seen anything like it.

As a side note, I only throw max distance forehands with the more stable destroyers, mostly the white Anthon. I think I have just the slightest amount of wobble to my release, which makes the discs that are great for backhands slightly unreliable for forehands. To eliminate this risk, I just...
Here is a screen shot of three sessions of messing around in a giant open field. Each session had a roughly 5-10 mph wind. I was fortunate enough to have a field large enough that I could throw any direction, so I opted to have the wind flowing as a tailwind with a roughly 30 degree left to...
