    [Drivers] Straight stable, high glide, high fade fairways

    Resistor. Eagle-x. Opto Striker. Solid choices, all.

    What disc do you throw off of the teepad the most

    heavily course dependent. I'll swap half my bag (or more) depending on the course and/or wind. Some days are calm and some days are windy as hell in Kansas City. N Volt is probably the disc I drive more often than any other, all things considered. GL Saint probably second and ESP FLX Avenger...

    [Question] What flies like a Ti Mantis???

    I really liked the AR mantises. But unless you can find them (I have 4, sorry, not for sale) they'll be tough to replace. I personally pulled mine for an MVP Shock and haven't looked back. Not innova, but I can't recommend trying one enough. I'm not an MVP fanboy or anything, but the Shock is...

    [Question] Sexiest Plastic?

    Good lawd that mace is the bomb. It's almost too much. Almost. Is there a reason for the pic on top of tp or paper towels, though? Does it cause that visceral of a response?

    [Question] Sexiest Plastic?

    I have the brother of that underworld in the op. That and a deep blue swirled up river are the prettiest discs I own. That mvp plasma looks pretty nasty too, though!

    [Drivers] Premium Plastic hyzerflip disc

    Opto River for 300 ft tunnels on a flip for me. Pull it nice and smooth. Very straight on a flip line or can be thrown flat to hold the turn. Opto plastic is grippy and nearly indestructible. That or a beat up roc 3 would probably be what I pull from the bag for those shots.

    Best body type for Disc Golf?

    It would seem like long arms and big hands would be advantages in terms of build, but in the real world it doesn't seem to work out that way. McBeast and Nikko aren't big guys at all, but they bomb. Paige Pierce looks like a stiff breeze would blow her away, but I've seen her park a couple of...

    Most unpopular/uncommon disc you throw?

    I keep an ESP FLX Avenger in the bag. As mentioned, Avengers don't get hated on, they just get overlooked, it seems. Good overstable complement to a Saint, though, IMO. I don't think I've seen another MVP Shock being bagged either, but I added one a few months ago and really dig it. Also...

    [Recommend] Slightly slower Orc

    I have a recommendation! For some reason, Discraft Avengers get no love, but I think that they should. You never really hear people mention them, but I think that they get overlooked with all the other choices out there, but they are definitely worth a try. They are readily available in...

    Woohoo! Disc Golf is a Sport!

    So according to this sample disc golf is about as legitimate a sport as is F1. Totally legit.

    Hardest hole you have played

    Dang. I saw the thread title and Blue Valley #9 instantly popped in my head. This pretty much sums it the hole up, save for severity of the elevation changes. It's tough to walk, much less play. Oh, and the last shot is blind downhill to the pin which is on a downslope, behind some trees...

    [Mids] Recommend a Slightly Overstable Non-Beaded Midrange

    aftershock is not a bad choice. feels like a beadless Roc. Mine is slightly understable to straight, not what I would consider overstable. It's a sparkle 2010 Worlds, though. Maybe a freak. Hornet is quite to very overstable and you'd never notice the bead in hand. Discmania MD2 is solid...

    [Latitude] Saint Pro

    Just looked through this thread and those things are beauties. Too bad I don't have money to blow on plastic. I throw Saints probably 75% off the tee for regular controlled drives and have a couple beat to just perfect. Love 'em. More overstable Saint = Discraft Avenger, tho. Not quite as...

    video games

    ^^This. If you're at work and have some time to kill it can be a pretty good time. I haven't played it in quite awhile, though, b/c it stopped recognizing me when I opened it up and I basically started all over again with the 3 crap discs that you get at the beginning. Trying to hit that gap...

    Tunnelshots Avery Jenkins

    Avery's a really nice guy and from what I've heard, a very good teacher as well. Plus, he has the clean cut, good guy look that make him a great spokesperson for Innova (first) and DG (second). The fact that he's a very, very good overall player, speaking well in a well produced video is...
