Vitals:
Years playing/experience: DG 1 year 3 months
Right/left-handed/ambidextrous: right-handed
Throwing Style: RHBH, some fh
Golf Distance (avg/max*) for putter/mid/driver: putter/mid: 230/270'; Fairway: 275/310'; Distance: 330/350'
I measure my distance by hole 1 on my home course. The pin is 310 ft straight there is a tree about 270 slightly to the left of the line to the pin. When I first started everything was between halfway to the tree and the tree. Now on solid full power throws, I usually get my putters to the tree, my fairways to the pin and my distance drivers about 30 to 40 feet past the pin

What do you like/dislike about your current bag?: I would like to add more true mids and control drivers but it usually ends up in too much overlap because I am not throwing far enough for there to be large gaps between putters and fairways and fairways and distance drivers.
Specific areas of desired feedback: I have a much better backhand then forehand. When I add understable discs to my bag, I almost always start relying on touch backhands for forehand favorable holes. Is there a need for truly understable discs if I am trying to rely on forehand for right turning holes?
Immediate and long-term goals: I'd like to improve my forehand by having a consistent straight to fade shot, and gain distance on backhand to be able to have 300 ft avg shots with putter 350 ft avg fairway and 400ft avg distance driver
I started throwing understable discs with a lot of hyzer, relying mainly on hyzer flip type straight shots. Now I try to throw stable to overstable discs on very slight hyzer, straight, or slight anny depending on shot type.
Bag:
Drivers (weight/plastic/model/(condition)/use.
171 Lucid Sheriff, (new, slightly understable) - main distance driver when I can afford to have a little turn
174 metal flake lucid sheriff, (used, very straight) - I use this for most drives that I need a straight line, it does have some finish, so I have to be careful of that
174 lucid x chameleon moonshine sheriff, (new, overstable but not dumpy) - I only use this for strong headwinds where I cant afford it going to the right
Fairways
174 Opto Explorer, (beat, very straight with a slight turn and slight fade) - main driver
175 Opto-X Explorer, (new, overstable but not dumpy) - more of a headwind disc
172 lucid-x chameleon sheriff, (new, more overstable than a felon or raptor, flies then dumps hard)- I use this for an overstable approach that is longer than my harp can reach
Throwing putters/Mids:
175 Bt hard harp, (beat, straight if thrown with a little anny) - main thrower
175 bt soft harp (used, overstable and sticks when it lands) - most of my approaches are with this
Putting:
175 classic judge x2, (used) - interchangeable main putters
