"Best of Specialty Discs 2009"

[Jax11]

Piggybacking off of Technohic's idea of doing the best of awards. I'll be running the same type of thing, except I will be doing it with specific discs for specialty throws and with plastics. Please nominate here, and I'll take the top four from each category and put them into polls. I'll shut it down on Friday and try to keep on Technohic's schedule to keep things consistent.

If you haven't go check out his original thread and put in your nominations here.
