Got out for a cheeky round today to throw the new discs. Snow fell last night so the Inertia stayed in the bag.

But yeah, I like what the Runway was giving me. My most overstable mids were my champ Roc3 and a Lucid Suspect, so nothing that really would try to dump hard. I think it's going to find a way into the bag. And I agree, it feels great in the hand.

I had a hard time loosening up so not sure how I feel about the uplink. Much of my throws on the day were not feeling great. May need to wait for a Chinook to come through.

I was a bit surprised by my new CN Volt. I was expecting it to fade similarly or harder than my Proton (sparkly orange) Volt, but I was finding it seemed to hold straighter for longer (both 175g). Didn't have both side by side for a proper comparison, but there were some trees I wasn't expecting to get around and it pushed past.

Anyone have info about when Eclipse 2.0 Crave, Hex and Envy will be available to buy?

Crave and Envy have been out of stock for a while around here in Plasma, Cosmic Neutron and Proton. Of course there shelves of James Conrad Envys. I assume next runs of Crave and Envy will include those plastics and not Eclipse even though its dark at 4:45 for me now.

Oh. I would kill some of you for a glow Crave.

Email from OTB today and indicating the SE Waves are now outbound from MVP. Had a little left in the fund and placed a pre-order for a pair of Plasma Entropies.

Also found an online trade and will have a Proton Wave on the way. AND (busy day) someone found my lost Reactor at Suwanee Creek. Not too shabby.

Is that suwannee creek GA? I just played there today.

‘Twas. Had what I thought was a really solid tee shot first of the week on 12 (I think? Whichever has the big ditch running right in front of the basket) and it simply never resurfaced.

Finally played Little Mulberry yesterday. I think I like Suwanee Creek better. LM’s fairways are largely wide and manicured. SC is a little tighter and every shot seems to need a more specific intent. I like that. It doesn’t necessarily like me, but that’s ok: it’s always interesting.

My group almost lost a disc on 12 and got lucky to find it. I do like suwanee, but also like mullberry because I get to throw higher speed discs there. What is your home course? Mine is Alexander

[mas30066]

Oregon in West Cobb. I work off Sugarloaf though, and try to catch a round on office days (mostly remote). I can appreciate getting to stretch out at LM. Not familiar with Alexander though. I’ll have to look that up.

MVP content: the Clash is a killer woods disc, speaking of Suwanee. Yes, the Crave is straighter, but the Clash covers a lot of those lone tree in the pure line situations where a little hard flex is in order to sneak past and keep it on track.

[Jgilletted4]

I work remote too and live off of sugarloaf. Alexander park is actually off of sugarloaf and scenic highway. We may have to get a round in being so close to each other!

MVP wise an envy and reactor combo is deadly at Suwanee!

You guys know Central is just down the street right? You don’t have to torture yourself at Suwannee Creek.

I also play OP a good bit, especially the glow league. Wonder if we have played together before?
