    Upgrading to backpack bag

    Well, per my original comment, he has been using it for a couple of seasons (hundreds of rounds). Not sure how they have changed the bag, but I stand by my assertion that the build quality is not comparable to Grip, Pound, Voodoo, Lat64, UPD, or any of the other bags mentioned, save maybe the...

    Upgrading to backpack bag

    Just wanted to point out that the DD Ranger and the Lat64 bag are not the same bag, and are in my opinion pretty far apart in terms of build quality. One of the guys I disc with has had the a ranger for a couple seasons and it is very "limp", no structure to the bag at all. I've been using a...

    [Innova] Surprising Blizzard Champion Variation

    Variation of the same disc from run-to-run and over time is pretty much Innova's bread and butter. I throw innova, so I'm not trying to bash em, it's just true. Unfortunately, there are likely forces at play beyond the bubbles that are causing the disc to fly different than the old one...

    [Recommend] Fairway Driver Help

    GSTAR TL3 is this for us mortals, very straight at 300+ with slight but reliable fade. Pairs well with a teebird.

    [Millennium] Omega

    Supersoft varies pretty widely. Im a former omega ss addict, and have ones that are floppy like an SSSS, and some that are more firm like an S.

    [Drivers] Looking for a new High Speed Understable Driver

    Vibram Lace. For me, with a minimal break-in period, fly similar to a nicely seasoned champ katana that I also have. Worth a shot IMO. More turn than the flight numbers would suggest in my experience.

    Courtesy to female players in 2017 - Can it exist?

    With statements like this you lose all credibility on a topic like this. I was willing to back you up as I thought Tripper was unfair to you. But he's right, you are part of the problem.

    Courtesy to female players in 2017 - Can it exist?

    Dang. I know you're in my neck of the woods as I've bought some putters from you in the past...curious what course this was at? Can't stand any type of intimidation or tough guy antics on the course. I regularly play with a group of three guys, and we've had solo women (on two occasions) join...

    [Innova] What Discs Does Innova Need To OOP

    Groove, Monarch, maybe the Kite. Viking and Archon are great discs, in fact I believe the Viking was one of the owners favorite molds. OP, I may have misread, but did you suggest they OOP the Cheetah, Gazelle, and Cobra?

    [Question] Viking

    100% this, always had more turn with a valk, viking will flip up to straight, and was always more predictable

    Discipline--Where do you draw the line?

    I always seem to make my second-chance putts too, it's like it's easier when you're not thinking too hard.

    S.I. Joint pain

    Herniated discs from an auto accident kept me out for many months doing physical therapy and doing everything possible to reduce I'd say it's likely an issue caused by a lack of mobility in the joint that was aggrivated while throwing. Possible that a stretching routine will benefit you, as I...

    [Innova] Why are all Innova's new drivers so damn overstable?

    I have a hard time believing a 171 Groove would fall into a "WAAAAY overstable cause it's heavy" pigeon hole... Things like PLH and dome have a ton more to do with variation in stability across molds.

    Best strategies/tips/playing styles

    I always tell newer people to keep it in the fairway. Sounds suuuper obvious, and perhaps not easy for new players, but we are talking about how to IMPROVE, and I think it plays into the mental aspect more or less knowing your weaknesses and avoiding putting yourself into situations that can...

    [Drivers] How many distance drivers do you bag?

    I will use two or three Distance Drivers in a round (I consider distance driver to be speed 10+): 158 Champ Katana (calm day bomber, recently kicked my Laces out of this slot, had been throwing those for about a year) 171 Star Destroyer (nicely beat, some turn and some reliable fade) 172...

    [Recommend] Straight Driver in-between Destroyer and Teebird

    I use an Escape between the Destroyer and TeeBird. Handles power well and has a predictable fade but will turn up to flat with some pow.

    To go for birdie or play it safe?

    I'm always pretty excited to a bogey-free round (no 4's), and as a beginner I would say take the 3 and beat your buds. However, there seems to be a developmental threshold where laying up for the easy putt will not improve your putting/upshots/score...at least for me...so at this stage in my...

    My first month.

    This is the way to do it. I played for about 13 years before I started spending a lot of money on discs, and I still only have about 50, most of which are Wizards in the putter stack or duplicates of my go-to's. I'm just as susceptible to the "shiny new toy" syndrome as anyone, but the reality...

    Suggestions on disc-up from Valk?

    INTP is actually saying the opposite. You NEED to be able to power up a disc to be able to have it hold an anny line to the ground. If you don't hit hard enough it will slow down to the point that it starts to fade out. I'd add that this is different than a hefty application of OAT that causes a...
