    [MVP] MVP Disc Sports (Part VI)

    Right now I am playing with a 'minimal bag' of about 14 discs. Eventually I will upgrade to something in the 'Lore' size bag range so I would anticipate carrying around 20 discs. With the reduction to 14 discs, I decided to putt with Watts. I have one decently beat in and another fresh but...

    I liked the detour but it didn't make my bag. That said I am curious, following the supposed release of the Detour. MVP promised a lot more stock releases this year (that was one of the reasons they shut down shipments at the end of 2023. We have seen a a release that was focused on distance...

    [MVP] MVP Disc Sports (Part VI)

    So to be completely honest I do not know what run Zone I have, nor how old...i bought it used but it looks to be in very good shape (8/10, easy). That zone and the Tempo, again today, were so similar. I bought a Zone OS to try today and I think I am going to go Tempo/Zone OS and drop the envy...

    It's not high on my priority list of things to do but, in no particular order: 1. I play with 14 discs, it's going to be one or the other. 2. I like the hand feel of the Tempo. 3. I am a gyronaut. But, like I said, not a big deal, gonna give it some more effort tomorrow to see if I still...

    OK so I threw a tech disc recently and I can actually quantify what I am about to say with my data. I was averaging around 58mph and 1250 rpm right hand backhand. With that said, based on the one round I played today, the Tempo is a Zone...almost. I mean I had more than once where (shocking...

    Don't worry I am not insulted. I love discussing disc golf and it's cool to learn that history about MVP. I like the idea of the easter egg discs but for me, personally, the pro shop prototype stamp stuff doesn't bother me. But I am not reselling for profit nor am I interested in a paying a...

    Not new at all, been throwing MVP now for 10 years. But I just buy the discs and throw them. Sometimes I discuss here but I honestly haven't followed closely to know the stuff you are talking about. That is a pretty interesting history, so thank you for sharing.

    I know I said that exact thing when I had my first Neutron Wave. Couldn't figure that thing out. It was so perfect sat on the precipice of stability that anything could make that disc go from straight as a laser to roller. I felt like unstable was a better term than understable. There is a...

    MVP doesn't encourage anyone to do anything. This has everything to do with the market, as you have stated. And it's a market you also willingly participate in. If MVP is going to test run Watts in Proton but only 3/10 were viable (just an example, I have no clue why they had that limited run...

    Yeah so I won't be the gatekeeper who is going to tell you to just throw mids and putters. Go have fun and I hope you get hooked back in. But, realistically speaking, with 220-250' of power, you are most likely not going to see massive differences between the volt and relay. I would...

    I think the proton craves just haven't been run in a while. I don't think there is anything particularly special about them other than that. Wraths were selling at inflated prices up until the most recent drop so now they are plentiful. Craves can be finicky though depending on your arm speed...

    I think the soft proton from OTB and the new eclipse envy's just don't seem as stable as a 'normal' envy should be. The rest of the Envy's I have owned (soft neutron, fission, neutron, proton, prism proton) etc. have more or less flown the same. The stabilities certainly varied between the...

    [MVP] The Servo - Fairway Driver

    I think it kind of depends on what your eternal jackalope did for you and which version of the servo you just found. The Apex jackalope I threw two years ago probably flies similarly to the latest run of Servo's. But that is also why I am a bit perturbed with the latest run of Servo. It has a...

    I have had a very similar struggle. I had a realization late 2022 that plenty of pros have switched from one brand to another (Without having a custom putter made) and are still successful putters. At that point I realized that I kept blaming not having that magical unicorn putter instead of...

    I've really enjoyed the Pixels for putting but I was very surprised by their ability to throw well too. I guess maybe I shouldn't have been given this is Simon we are talking about. But I am looking forward to getting a premium plastic Pixel. The envy isn't going anywhere and I love the watt...
