Can Eagles and Teebirds coexist in the same bag?
Sure they can.
I'm an Eagle lover but I always have a seasoned DX Teebird in the bag.

sure...just bump up to tb3 =)...i would only bag the eagle and classic tb to use eagle for fh and tb for bh though. I currently bag a very beefy CG 22 tour series eagle and pretty beat in halo tb3. Iven been reaching for the TB3 less and less frequently lately though since falling in love with the hawkeye/dark rebel.
speaking of 3ness...wheres the eagle3!

Get that arm speed up.. you should see the flight you want 350+
That's really, really far to throw an Eagle. I'd bet you'd need at least a 50+ mph arm speed to throw a premium plastic Eagle that isn't beat to hell that far. We are talking like less than 1% of all disc golfers who could do that.
I bag 2 star PFN Eagle X. One is pretty new and the other is seasoned lightly and flies pretty straight but still dumps. For most people their Eagle can fill the slot that most pros use a firebird for. I know my new Eagle is basically my Firebird slot, and that's what great about it. It's basically a usable seasoned Firebird for amateur golfers.

ugh, my Champ Eagle is a brick. I should know by now always to buy DX if DX exists, then Pro, then maybe G*. :doh:

Stack of old pat # L molds arrived in the mail yesterday. MmmmMmmmm
Dang! All star plastic?
All champ, just super opaque.
A flat champion Eagle is an Eagle3. They are only found in used bins these days.
When you guys say "flat" how "flat" are you talking here?
I've thrown Eagles for over 10 years and never prioritized "flat". I look for a nice, even dome (not pop top) without that damn "ledge" between the flightplate and wing. And they have always been great flyers. Stability you can trust, great glide. Pretty much dead-nuts right on the -1, 3 flight numbers.
Anything with that "ledge" is an overstable, glideless turd that I would consider a "bad" eagle.
Anything with a nice seamless wing/flightplate transition with an even dome (whether domey or more on the flatter side) have flown pretty much identical.
Another question... I have this fresh color glow Eagle with a 2022 tourney stamp. It's pretty sexy if I do say so myself. I think the stamp is neat. That being said, does anyone know if this is a 2022 Barsby in disguise? How can one tell? All I can say is that it's stiffer than my 2022 Barela TB3s, 2022 Sexybirds, and 2021 Jen Allen TB (all teal fwiw). Doesn't quite have that level of bubblicious gum (yet?).
Attached a couple pics. I'm at a loss for why the front pic is showing up sideways. Appy polly loggies!
