The Ask MJ & Comet Love Thread

[MANBURGARLAR]

Any off season plans MJ? Sticking close to home I bet. Testing out new molds for fun? Any non-DG related activities going on?

MJ! Thanks for showing what can be done with a comet. Had my best tournament finish last weekend using a comet and a flippy soft magnet for 90% of my shots.

Any insight on if there’s a way to get comets in tackier plastic? My hands are super dry and finicky, craving something like the feel of FLX now that the temp has dropped.

I found an MJ/meatball comet in a gorgeous pink/orange color that I just couldn’t live without. Doesn’t look like the 19s I’ve seen online. Is it older?

I actually use the sting quite a lot. Throw them like I would use a super flippy comet shot, but goes a farther and gets there a bit quicker. Plus it's become my trick shot and roller disc for getting out of sketchy spots on the course

All of the above! Mostly enjoying some time away from competing and getting into better shape again.

The regular esp plastic is generally grippier than the rest of the normal production runs of comets. Not sure that they have made flx comets much

One of the ones with the old comet stamp on it?

Yeah, the old stamp and your signature. It claims to be glow ESP but I certainly wouldn’t throw it in a glow round. Gorgeous disc, can’t wait to throw it.

That is helpful, I use an Archer for rollers and right shots since I do not have a forehand and am right handed. I find a disc that is understable great for both rollers and the dreaded right shots. I have another disc for right shots but it is not a Discraft disc. The Most used disc in my bag is the Impact due to how the mold hits that distance gap for me that midrange and fairway driver as well as the longer tight straight gap shot in the woods.

Only a 100 of those with that stamp. Nice and stable for a comet too
