[Question] Disc used on longest throw

500' 164 champ beast downhill tail wind.

on flat land my furtherst disc is a backhand 173 force averageing a bit over 400ft. but its gotta be into the slightest headwind
 
downhill doesn't count..if it did, i have thrown a disc thousands of feet..

alot of it depends on the hole tho. my record downhill shot probably had a 60 ft elevation change. while some holes have 200+ft in elevation change.

all in all its not the best way to prove how far u can throw, but if a disc travles 600+ft it sure is a hell of alot of fun to watch
 
Longest ever was hole 21 at Bailey the other day, but it's a big drop, was about 600' using a 140g well-beat D Model (S).

Longest with tailwind was 520' on slight downhill hole 3 West Fork with a 173g Destiny.

Longest normal throw was about 435, a good rip on a 155g Destroyer, one of those Star plastic with Wysocki's bling on the cover.
 
Three throws come to mind, and any of them could have been the longest. Air King/Echostar Tern/TP Destiny.

I had an air King that while incredibly temperamental, produced some of the longest backhand drives I've ever had as well.
 
Longest Backhand - either a 155g Opto Air Ballista or a 165g DX Destroyer.

Longest Forehand - I pulled a 166g Star Wraith from a pond, threw my 4 longest forehand shots (by 30+ feet), then texted the number. And the guy said that was his longest disc by far and he'd tried to replace it with dozens of different distance drivers.
 
IDK if I can even isolate 1 disc as being my longest, but one that comes readily to mind is the Axiom Excite.

It's like a better Katana. It can be absolutely smashed, and will respond favorably with huge, sweeping S curves. The Excite is (IMO) the longest driver in the Axiom/MVP lineup. Less finicky than the Relativity as well.

FWIW, my longest throw with the Excite was right at 500'. This was in the field on flat ground.
 
Downhill: I launched a Plasma Insanity about 490' on hole 5 at Belmont Park. Unfortunately the hole is only 420'. I ended up in hole 11's fairway, about 120' away from the pin.

Flat ground: a Star Tern on hole 9 at William Harbin. Turned over and didn't even think about coming back. Ended up about 380' away from the tee, but 140' right of the pin and took a bogey.
 
My longest throws downhill (570) and flat ground (405) have been from 160g Goldline Ballista Pros.
 
Flat ground, laser measured, Z Nuke, 512'
Down hill, spitballed, X Nuke, 750'+ (Flipped over 2x in an incredible wind event, it could easily have been 800, idk)
 
Longest flat was with a champ glow tern on a hyper flip at about 515'. Need to work more on distance lines.
