looks pretty good, no big gaps. i would drop the banshee and leopard, the eagle-x and teebird should be able to cover those shots. at your current power level, i would keep your drivers <170g. anything above that will not get up to its proper speed and (generally) fly overstable. champ teebirds are great but your new 175g will probably fly similar to the champ eagle.

get a pro d or elite x buzz and beat the crap out of it. i would also recommend a firmer wizard for driving and approaches. more consistent flight and more durable for harder throws. try a SS in the low 170's.

yeah I like what you have here. Very clean cut, but covers the basics. I agree with GLong about lighter weights. A beat DX teebird will cover your turnover shots.

Thanks for the reviews! I have a couple questions from the replies. I have a 174 EZE Pure, would that work has a good driving putter or is it a bit neutral for a driving putter?

Will the Eagle X start to fly more neutral as my power level increases, or will it continue to fly somewhat over stable. Should this be my spike hyzer disc?

I have used the Banshee for hyzer spike throws and get out of trouble thumbers? Does a Firebird fly different than a Banshee other than being a faster disc?

Lastly would an Elite X or Pro D Buzzz after beating in some replace the Meteor has an under stable mid? I think that might be the case with knowing how my Glow Buzzz flies now.

Thanks in advance for any answers.

The Pure is neutral, but I love it as a driving putter, however I drive with opto or gl. If you're used to the wizard the pure may not have a flight you like and if you're not playing on open courses eze will probably beat in pretty quickly. A firebird is faster and more overstable than a banshee. I don't throw eagles or buzzes so I'm not helpful answering those questions.
