Lets do our own 09 best of awards (Nominations)

[Jacob]

what are you guys using as a reference to what speed rating a disc has? I know Innova's disc all have them, but what about the others?

I didn't even notice that, I just made my own judgements

I'm using Joe's Flight Chart as a guide:
Speed 5 High speed drivers
Speed 4 Fairway
Speed 3 Mids
Speed 2 Putters
Speed 1 Putters

 

[WillACarpenter]

Wow. Looking at some of the flight charts to figure this out it's really weird where some of the Discraft stuff comes up compared to some of the Innova stuff.

Predator slower than a Viking? Weird.

Disc Golf Center has the Innova type ratings on everything, but Joes system does seem to allign pretty well also, but Joes is missing some of the more recent discs that DGC isnt.

 

[Technohic]

I know there are more opinions that this...need to stir the ashes a bit I guess.

Rocs suck! Worst disc ever!
