sorry to disappoint, but I just don't have the appropriate technology on hand for taking pictures thanks for the thoughts and feedback. I guess I'll buy some more (when they become available) and gather more data. Hopefully they will fly more like I have become accustomed to

I mentioned in the OP that it has the word "VALKYRIE" molded near the center. They also have "MADE IN U.S.A." and "INNOVA CHAMPION DISCS, INC. WWW.INNOVADISCS.COM" molded around the rim. No Rancho address like on my older Valks. Also Penned in the center on the new ones "PRO" where the old...

hehe if I knew what I was talking about I wouldn't be here asking questions. been using the same molds for years and just now got my first two without pen. I have stacks of discs in reserve for my main molds and I only lose a handful every season, so really it isn't surprising to me that I am...

not a factory second

yes, but this is for sure a different mold. the text on the underside of the flight plate proves it. we can assume they were aiming to replicate what came before, but the result is not even close

Whelp, I discovered a second one in my stash and initial physical examination confirms it features the same differences as the other. I will have to throw it to find out for sure, but I am expecting it to be freaky OS just like the one I have already thrown. Will report

I have been bagging a handful of Pro Valks for several years now and it has become my most frequently lost mold due to its speed and understability... it has just the right combination of characteristics that when a throw gets away from me, it tends to reeealy get away Recently I picked up a...

4.00 star(s) A new challenger approaches! Condition - 3 • teeboxes: concrete, well kept • signage: none at the teebox. pins feature arrows pointing to the next tee • navigation: generally easy. caveats for teeboxes 4 and 18, which are farther and not intuitive to find • landscaping: easily adequate •...

I threw this hole with my Dad back in December. From the tee, my disc disappeared over the bank just behind the 'A' basket. OB, damn. Then, a second later, it emerged back into view and we both burst out laughing as we watched it continue, skittering across the ice, making it nearly all the...

I wear flat-soled slip-on sneakers, either Vans or LL Bean. $50-$70 They are very comfortable for me and I really like the fact that they don't have chunky treads because it means I can safely pivot out of my drive on a concrete teepad without stressing my knee (still pivoting on my the ball...

I walked the Nockamixon disc course yesterday. It looks like it has not been maintained at all for years... the forest has begun reclaiming it. Downed trees and high grasses adorn every fairway, the teeboxes are obscured beneath mats of weeds and grass, paths are overgrown and hard to find...

I heard from a local arborist about two weeks ago: In early 2019, the state accepted bids for clearing out the ash trees on the course. Several large firms bid in the neighborhood of $200,000 - $300,000. The state eventually accepted a bid from a very small (also incompetent and negligently...

Perfectly dignified, especially the partial disrobing part. And thanks for noticing my good looks! I'd be glad to cook up a round of disc with you anytime!

It's not just Lyme: Powassan is on the rise! Definitely good to see everyone is aware of the tick-borne disease threat. Remember though: Lyme Disease is not the worst that can happen from a tick bite! Powassan virus is on the rise in the eastern US, and while it is not a severe illness for...
