    what part of your game brings you the most joy?

    Man, I thought about this and sorta dismissed the prompt because I decided then that all of the aspects were pretty equal--whatever my next shot is... But then I decided to answer it another way, and it's like this: What aspect of the game gives me the most joy, ignoring the pain it may also...

    Gran Canyon Lawsuit

    Those Krull discs really don't belong in the sport. This was inevitable.

    [Compare] Are Gyro discs less forgiving?

    yes. I fantasize.

    [Putters] Kastaplast Berg

    My K1 soft Berg has officially become my underpowered touch approach disc FH and BH, for non-shaped lines outside of jump putt and within about 180. I've had three ultra sweet throw ins (almost feels like an ace) in the last month, all FH. What I like is: soft plastic and rim shape minimizes...

    [Compare] Are Gyro discs less forgiving?

    I bag Hex and Envy as opposed to a comparable non-Gyro (I'm brand-indifferent) because they seem to be the most "forgiving", but I'm generally throwing either one at full power or something close. Lately I lean into the Berg for underpowered FH and BH approach for reasons as you describe. I...

    If You Could Only Carry 5 Discs - Which Do you Choose and Why?

    I can't do this again without knowing the course. Gaps vs. distance vs. terrain etc. I throw an Envy a lot though, and also a Teebird. Been moving towards the GG Halo Wraith as my workhorse driver FH/BH. But max D is a G* Corvette up here at altitude. It really depends on how many tees place...

    [Innova] Mako3

    On a lark, I picked up a Halo Mako3 from a buddy selling from his trunk. It had a sharkskin grey halo color. I used to throw a star Mako3, and loved it. But in the quest to eliminate discs, the Hex replaced it. My initial thoughts after some fieldwork are that I might add it to the bag. Here's...

    [Recommend] Mega-understable Envy?

    I'm not a smart man, Jenny.

    [Recommend] Mega-understable Envy?

    From work today with Proxy and Swan reborn, I think that y'all nailed it in terms of feel and flight. It's just an epiphany that I want to run to ground. May be that there's no point in doing this, but something told me to follow up after putting with Paradox and Tursas. Really, all I want is...

    [Recommend] Mega-understable Envy?

    Gotcha. It's such a corner case that I get it, and apologize for my ire. This idea came to me during a long sesh at the local working on C2s. I noticed that my ability to gauge depth on hyzer-finishing longer putts was an issue, and when I used my Paradox or Tursas, I had both easier forward...

    You sound bitter dude, not sure what I did to incur this. If you have something helpful, I'm all ears.

    [Recommend] Mega-understable Envy?

    So I picked up a new (nothing in the used bins) soft cosmic Proxy and Swan reborn (Swan 2?). Swan 2 is super close to what I'm looking for, gonna keep messing with that. Proxy is rad but it still too stable for what I'm after. I'll keep messing with it and maybe I can beat it in. It's a great...

    I keep hearing this. :p

    [Recommend] Mega-understable Envy?

    I appreciate this, because I understand my query may come across as noobish, but the evidence suggests it's not my experience or ability or technique in putting that needs attention. At the risk of coming across as arrogant, I won the local 40-person putting league the two times I played a...

    [Discmania] American, versus European manufacture of discmania

    There is only one DOOMBIRD, it's visible in my avatar. It's sacrilege to demean it by creating a "2" version. The DOOMBIRD will never need improvement. This is a huge mistake. I will address this with Simon. You know. When, uh. Well. Ok. Soon, hopefully. If our schedules line up.
