2nded. This is a good one where I can beam it straight, and be very certain that it's going to tilt right before fading back to the left.

I had an (early?) Katana that was _very_ understable at ~130 g. I have two (later?) Katanas that are _very_ overstable at 130 g and 132 g. Complete meat hooks. Thrown slowly (just tossed - strangest looking thing) or thrown medium hard.
They seem very unpredictable. I've heard other stories along these lines (for Katana's even, was it? down to understability in early models, overstability in later).
Katanas are not meat hooks. you are just not throwing them properly. Katanas are overstable at low speeds, so if it is a meat hook for you, then you are never getting near enough power on it. I am guessing you are throwing them 250 feet.
This could totally be it. But, I stand by my claim of unpredictability - since I've had Katanas in the same weight (130, 130, 132) that had vastly different stabilities. With my same arm.
The understable one I had out to perhaps 315 on a moderate hyzer flip. Maybe 280 more typically.
The overstable ones lose distance compared to my straighter discs. Indeed, maybe 250.
I'm a new player, and no kind of long driver, so I wouldn't expect to be able to get a regular Katana up to speed. But... a 130 g?
It's true that the overstable (for me) Katanas do a little better when I put as much zip on them as possible. They don't turn much in the understable sense, but they do wind up a bit closer to straight than their meat hook cousins.
Still, this overstable Katana is _so_ freakishly overstable for me compared to e.g. a 175 wraith that I do suspect the particular (unpredictable) disc is playing a part, not just my noodle arm.
So my Blizzard experience is a 133 Katana and a 150 Destroyer. My Katana is MASSIVELY understable, I have to release it on a sharp hyzer to keep it from turning and burning; but hit the right angle and height and it goes further than any disc I have. The Destroyer I had was a meathook, I had trouble releasing it too late, so I sold it. These light discs mess with my timing and release.
Wasn't one of the main selling points of Blizzards the fact that you could get light discs that still maintained a good deal of overstability? Why would you want an understable Blizzard? Just throw a low weight understable driver.
