    [Axiom] Axiom Fireball

    I recently bagged a 161 gram fireball and threw all of my firebirds away (gave them away actually). If the plasma is any less stable I can't really detect it. I threw it off of a 600 foot downhill shot (probably 75-100 feet of elevation change) with a 10-15mph headwind. Thrown directly into the...

    Making the mando and being behind it

    I think the newly released pictures help a ton with understanding these new rules. For whatever reason, the rule to me sounded like the mando made a vertical line to the tee pad, not to out of bounds or perpendicular to the tee pad. I am not sure why my mind thought of it that way, but I think...

    Making the mando and being behind it

    Lots of pages to read through, but has horizontal "mandos" been addressed? Local Course (Lake Casitas) has a tree limb mando that many people throw up to, the disc flies over the mando on its way, but falls under the limb and its good as it passed under the limb. This rule says its a vertical...

    Prefer Putting with Midrange - Problem?

    I had this problem too, switched to a faster putter and never looked back (Envy). The only advantage that a putter has is that it will usually not go very far if you miss the basket. Putting with a buzzz made for some long comeback putts at times when I missed.

    Brace leg and cracking the whip (backhand drive)

    This is actually a great video for catching this phenomenon. I was watching the MVP Open and noticed a weird hitch in all of the players throws on hole 1. Probably related to them trying to get max distance. They are all spinning and throwing, none of that straight pull, or lever/whip stuff...

    [Dynamic] Lucid vs Fusion Warden?

    I meant that I don't really see a difference in the lucid and classic blend, interestingly, the lat 64 pure I have in retro and opto exhibit the same quality. I am going to order a new lucid warden though to see if mine is just beat in really good. It is a few months old.

    [Dynamic] Lucid vs Fusion Warden?

    I have the warden in prime, classic burst, soft, fusion, and lucid. I absolutely hate fusion, it doesn't even feel like the same disc to me. My vote is classic burst for straightest warden. Retro is very close to the classic burst. I swear the lucid is actually the same stability, but a...

    The more I play the worser I get

    This happened to me a bit, it was because I started running longer putts, trying to throw in from 100+ feet out, and bombing drives. The other day I shot -4 on my home course, the first time I played I shot +28 (one year ago). I literally played to par all of the holes, ended up with a few...

    Understanding stability?

    You are on the right track, the only thing missing is speed. Lets take the Westside sword for example. 12/5/-.5/2 Lets just pretend that you have perfect form and can actually get this disc up to proper speed for a full 450 foot flight. Now, introduce a 10mph headwind into the equation. The...

    Please explain late turn to me

    I am starting to learn to throw left handed spike hyzers. You will be surprised how quickly you can pick it up! I also do some left handed upshots from time to time. Far more consistent than my flick (which I am also working on). Its the same exact motion as your regular throw, only on the other...
