I noticed that when I first started playing, I threw almost all Innova. Now, that I have discoverd some Discraft discs, my bag is now 70% Discraft. Anyone else make a change like this?

I did the same thing, especially once I started working on my backhand. My main drivers are still innova, beast and valkyrie, but my mid is a buzzz, fairway is a stalker, and I putt with a soft focus. I have an ESP/FLX surge on the way, and that may be my new driver, who knows. I'm always looking to expand my game and my bag.

I have a lot of 150 class innova drivers, and I use a champ valk for my overhead disc...but most of the rest is disraft.
I'm putting with a Challenger and an Ion (MVP disc) and my mids are all discraft wasp/buzzz/meteor and I'm working with a light avenger and a light surge but don't know how I feel about them yet. I throw an avenger SS now...put the Stalker back in the bag.
but I'll throw 150 class: champ valk (different from my overhead disc) dx wraith, gummy champ eagle, and experimenting but haven't decided on 150 class: champ orc, champ valk, dx starfire, dx teerex, dx destroyer (right now only good for me with a big flex shot)
I also mess around with a Lat64 Striker and Vision some times. I like gateway mids...and I might get my dad an apache in the 150 class because he wants a light stalker but they don't come very light and a really light apache might work for him.

I was all Innova when I started. now I am all discraft. I like the consistency of a new disc. Most of what I throw is brand new and when it starts to break in i switch it out. Discraft is great when I go to the next one and know it will fly just like the other new ones I have thrown.

I too used to be Innova only. Once I discovered the love for the Focus and the Buzzz, I began exploring other Discraft stuff. I even posted a thread looking for similar discs to switch to. Currently I still throw mainly Innova, but I am experimenting with other stuff and I will switch it out if I find something to be better for my game. I also want to cut down molds.

I'm in a similar situation. I purchased the http://www.dgcoursereview.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4031&highlight=discraft+deal discraft deal and now frequently pull out about six of the ten discs. I'm really liking their flx plastic and my crystal and elite-z buzzz

Great free advertising!
haha Seems like if Innova got a hold of this thread, there would be some serious management reconsiderations! I also have fallen to the switch. I started out with all Innova, and now am about 50%-50% Discraft/Innova. I'm in the financial proccess of getting more Discraft. (i.e. Surge, Mag., Pred., and another XL for rolling) I think it has to do with plastic quality... the only plastic i feel compares to Discrafts is the STAR line from Innova. OK, Maybe the PRO line too. The disc flight chart is easier to choose discs out of... Not saying Innova is Quantum Mechanics hard, but it's not as simple as it should be.

Yup, this happened to me too and most of the discs that I want to buy next are Discraft. About the only Innova on my list right now is the Katana.

I started out all Innova because that's all that is available locally. Then, thanks to MarshallStreet and other online stores, my bag is a jumbled mix of all kinds of companies.

Yeah I started with all innova. Then I joined some forums and got interested in the buzzz. After that I started getting more discraft. Now my bag is 4 Innova and 7 Discraft.
Throw a surge... its the exact same mold...

At first it was all Innova, but my horizons have broadened since....
Max D (when I carry them, I'll only take one of them with me):
Nuke
GL Halo
Star Destroyer
Fairway (my staple discs):
Teebird x3 (11x Champ, 12x Champ, E*)
Champ Banshee x2
Champ Leopard x1-2 (course dependent)
Mids:
Buzzz x2 (ESP, Z)
GL Core (at times, but rarely since I haven't worked with it enough)
Putters:
Organic Wizard
SSS Magic
I'm starting to become interested in the Discmania PD, so if I pick one of those up I'll be up to 5.
I don't understand players that play with only one brand; they are missing out on so much awesomeness!

Started all Innova, but have mixed it up since. Still messing around with others not in my bag now.
I am in the middle of changing over. Althugh there are still a few innova discs I like a great amount there seems to be a trend in my bag and I am seeing an improvement in my game (not sure if it is all on account of the discs or the how frequently I play, probably both).

Aside from my Polaris LS, I carry all Innova. That's all they have in stock around here and I have an unwarranted fear of buying things online.
all innova except for one disc....stratus x, found, which is too cool for school. like a slower roadrunner.
I would probably have more discraft, but really don't need to be adding a new disc too my bag right now. Buying more discs would just be buying something with a flight pattern all ready found in my bag.
Do need a drone though.
