    Overhand Sidewinder vs Firebird

    This. Of course the trade off is that the more overstable disc, since it is turning slower, will need more room laterally to complete its flight.

    Westside Giant

    Mine started out very overstable. I loved it. I could throw it hard and flat, and it would barely reach 400', if it managed to go that far, and the last 30% of the flight or so was in LSS. Now I have to throw it with a bit of hyzer and have to worry about a possible turn and burn.

    Westside Giant

    No, but I also have trouble imagining natural deflating of the disc making this big if a difference. Mine is now less HSS than a seasoned wraith. That just seems wrong.

    Westside Giant

    Forgive me if I missed it in this thread somewhere, but has anybody else had their giant (VIP in my case) suddenly lose a TON of HSS?

    The Fury

    I already put the saint closer to a roadrunner than say... A pd. Which I still don't think if as over stable. So... Wtf?

    Highest quantity of same mold in your bag?

    Plus different weights, especially with putters.

    Troubling Flick

    Are you aware that you are throwing anhyzer?

    Troubling Flick

    More spin = slower turn and slower fade.

    Which discs for which distances?

    No. Open field and wind allowing, I can push putters upwards of 330, and mids upwards of 370. These aren't common shots by any means, but in ideal conditions, they're comfortable.

    Westside Stag

    I'd put the saint/stag in the same category as Orc or QOLS, rather than comparing to an Avenger, OLF, or PD.

    Westside Stag

    So I got a few more throws in with the Stags/Saint. Really similar stabilites, although I feel the Stag is still more touchy. I did get a few shots really dialed in with a tailwind though, putting all three in a grouping aroun 400'-415' on very straight hyzer flips. As I said, I think the...

    Westside Stag

    So... fuck the stag. Let me preface this by saying that I've spent most of my time as a disc golfer with one or more fo the following in my bag: roc, teebird, or PD. In fact, I don't there has been a time in the last 4 or 5 years that there hasn't been at least one of those discs. Why does...

    Westside Stag

    Has anybody else picked any of these up yet? I got a couple in today (175 opto; 172 GL) and have only been able to get a couple tosses in with them. Off the bat, they don't seem as overstable as I expected, but I'll get quite a bit more time in with them tomorrow.

    Dave Feldberg part of Latitude 64° team

    I think part of it is finding something confortable. Being primarily a roc thrower myself, its a HUGE change going to latitude mids. Going from mostly baseline plastic in rocs to opto/GL plastics for lat64's mids was probably the toughest for me to get used to. I haven't thrown a fugitive or...

    Latitude 64°

    The few Quasars I've thrown have been stable, but not anything near overstable enough for wind fighting duties. I know there were talks of a few, but I believe those were just freaks in the first runs. Just wanted to point that out. (and that the Giant is awesome).
