Just for nostalgia and memories, I'll say used to be into gazelles and have talks with Blake T to thank for that.
They had a rim that felt tiny and fit really well into my grip. The hypothesis was that smaller rims gave more leverage.
Might be some truth to this, but I never had any superior...
Yup. Pures wear in better. They get finer dings and scratches. They get flippier too.
Proxy will look like heck, but still be a little OS for floaty goodness
If you want a putter to rip from the teepad, get the envy, they are only a touch more os than a proxy, but that's all the more I need.
Absolutely, 1 disc! It's the most freeing game!
I can change my mind about how, when, where I play, what I throw. Night or day, here or there, 1 disc or 50, for ten minutes or half the day. Meet up, go by self, have a beverage, just drink water, stop and get some food, drop crumbs all over...
Dx eagles and rocs are a blast to cycle, but no one really throws them anymore and the (maybe, could just be in my head) dx plastic isn't always good.
Only Rocs have a bead. Teebirds and firebirds do not. Dave loves to design mids and putters that utilize the bead
I don't think they care to...
@theonediscChallenge,
Maybe I'm not speaking for everyone, but I enjoy reading rants if they make some kind of sense. Keep typing, you're not bugging this fellow ranter. I like to see how people think
As a chronic over thinker, I like less molds. Then I know it was my execution, not the disc selection that did me right/wrong.
Also like the idea of having less stuff to haul around or worry about acquiring. One disc that can fight wind, one that can hold anny or flip up from some hyzer...
Tried out the Malta, and it seems to fit the bill and compliment my other discs.
OS enough for me, still has some glide so I can tee off with it and headwinds and not be very far behind where an OS driver would have landed.
Threw once today with too much annny, plus griplock and wobble, yet it...
Hey y'all, haven't played too many rounds this year, started working nights at my machine shop, then it got so dang hot that mostly all I wanted was to be on the clock.
Lately I got feeling run down, grumpy, and dreadful of the coming of winter but after an hour practice sesh in bright sun...
I agree. I've got my one driver mold, for the most part. Took trying and comparing dozens of discs for many seasons.
It's popular and I don't have to worry about it going OOP.
Some of my fav neutral to understable practice discs are X plastic avenger SS, dx teebird, star sidewinder.
DX teebirds go as far as 9 speeds because of massive glide. Fun as heck, and you can do relaxed throws and still get long flight.
But can beat in and get too flippy from tree hits...
I always had trouble accepting the concept that I use the same disc for straight and S curve.
But for me, SW's gonna go overall straight by scooting right of that mid-fairway trouble and fading back enough given slight hyzer and not too windy
To me, there is hardly a thing as a disc that turns a lot and also fades a lot. I read about, searched for, and field tested many.
At the distance I can generate, 300-325 BH, discs that do turn will fade less. Discs that don't turn fade more.
The only discs I've tried that seems like it...
Super spiffy Neon orange star firebird with blue stamp! Smooth and shiny as I've ever seen a disc. Looks like they went the extra mile to get rid of any sharp edges or seams.
I feel like a king when I throw it- confident and in control. Flies straight and fast when flat, then healthy fade...
