I had a couple stiff DX Teebirds years ago that could have passed for KC Pro. Wish I would have bought a stack. |
If the factory store does the runs, I will definitely buy the KC Pro and Champion runs, and more than 1 of each.....

And I DID buy a stack. They are by far may fav TB |
It seems like most people on this thread throw non-stock versions of the Gazelle. I also do. But the DX is and always has been my main backhand disc. Being that Disc Golf Center and Chainbangers no longer carry them, I reached out to Innova again just to see if they're out of production or what the plan is. I stated that I understand that the Pro Shop and DGU carry other plastics, but wanted to know if the DX would still be available. Their not helpful at all response suggested that I try the Pro Shop if my usual providers are unable to order me a DX. Because they currently offer three other plastics at the Pro Shop. Glad they told me something I had just told them in my original question...

I love love love dx gazelles but I don't throw them too much anymore except for beat skyhigh roller shots and while they're fresh. Sucks that they didn't answer you, but I don't think they're oop yet.
The domey star gazelles are decent enough approximations imo. :/ |
Just picked up a 5/10 11x KC Gazelle out of a used bin for $11. Someone had spray painted over most of the top, but I managed to get it off with about 20 minutes of work with acetone.
This thing is wonderful. I haven't thrown a lot of Gazelles, but this one has just the right amount of stability to just go dead straight off a hyzer-flip. Also sneaky-long which is nice too. I had forgotten how much I like the old candy KC plastic since I lost my last Teebird a few years ago. |
^^^I'll take it off your hands for $12. ;)

I throw 10x and 11x all winter long, and I'm just a poke down the road from you fellows.
But I want new KCs. Please, guys, send Innova an email (see above). |
I have sent that email multiple times. Hopefully it happens at some point.
I haven't mentioned it in the emails but I really really want another run of CS Champion Gazelles too. |

Gazelles are pretty neat:

And I thought I had a lot of Gazelles lol

ODRB might have more Gazelles than I do discs, overall.

It's an illness. Gazelles are the ill-ness!

I don't know, man. Two posts in a row you come flying in and saying you were first.
Might have to call shenanigans. |

Don't be too hard on yourself. We grow from our mistakes.

Luster gazelles is what I want.
Yes. I bet they would be more overstable than the circle stamps. We would have functioning gazelles for yeeeeeeears. |

Pretty sure that only a few of us actually collect Gazelles. Curious if any of you other collectors have noticed a scarcity of bar stamps? I was looking at ODRB's collection for the 10th time this week, and there are a few in there. I only have one in mine. But you never see them up for sale. Circle stamps and field dressed still pop up from time to time. Those 1996 World's "New" ones do as well. Even the bar stamped first run ones. But I haven't seen a stock bar stamp for sale for years. Anyone know how long they were molded? Maybe there aren't as many out there?

you know, i'm pretty ****ing pissed about losing my asia open gazelle with the snake stamp last year . . . or whenever i lost it. i don't even remember exactly when/where it happened, it just sort of . . . was gone. it was a cfr glo, much flatter than the current runs and the plastic was nice and gummy too. anybody happen to know where to get one?
|
I can probably hook you up. Same stamp? Or just a flatter gummier Glow Gazelle?

So is there anyone else bagging GStar Gazelles? I am loving it for the straight and turnover Gazelle shots and it is beating in very very slowly for GStar about 4 months in the bag at pretty much all wooded courses and no change in flight. I am not a big fan of GStar but these fly so nicely as an understable Gazelle they work perfectly with my Champs.
|
I have been. Had one in the bag for over a year now. Powered down straight shots and turnovers at full power. Best technical driver in my bag.
|
But g*? Really?
|
It's a great understable driver in gstar. I prefer star still though since it starts off more neutral and beats from there. Gstar gazelles fly similar to a pro leopard imo. I love to use them from a standsill on anhyzers and hyzerflips where normally I'd have to give my comet some extra juice.
|
I'm curious what the earliest run of champ/champish plastic that the Gazelle was run in. I've got a mint, 09-01-2002 cfr stamp from the southern national championships in Memphis, TN.
Others that might be even earlier? |
|
Fingerprinty = deteriorating plastic yet, somehow fetches more money. Splain lol
