Tempted to pick up a black-cored thrower, just because they look so sweet.
thanks for the review
I'm going to stop by my one local shop that carries more than Innova + Buzzzs and spend some paycheck on one or two.
Just got paid, Friday night.
So, after throwing the Proxy for more than 70 feet, the true difference between it, and the Envy, was immediately evident. The Proxy goes where you tell it, plain and simple. It has very little fade at all, and it just straight as an arrow with a clean, flat throw. Give it a little anny, and some height, and it'll ride it all the way to the ground for a nice turnover. Give it hyzer and it has decent HSS to hold the line.
I personally don't really need a disc like the Proxy. (I have my seasoned Ions, fresh Ions, Axis, and Envy for any shots that the Proxy might cover) BUT, it is a great disc for those looking to add a straight stable, versatile putter to their bag. Think of it as an Envy feel, but more of an Anode type flight. If they make this in Electron plastic, people are going to go nuts.

One thing I should add is that the Proxy was shorter than the Envy on almost every throw. I was getting it out to about 210-230, while the Envy was consistently about 10-15 feet longer. I think that may be in part because I feel I can really rip the Envy hard and not have it turn over much, but the Proxy is not as high speed stable. I think I was concentrating more on not turning and burning it.
Wut? More sleek than the Envy? That proves right there that putters are the most personal discs. (As if there was any doubt)
Yep, feels lower profile to me. Envy feels taller..
