Hello,
I recently got back into disc golf after 4-5 years of being away and decided that I would go the route of buying a disc golf starter set - I went with Innova and bought 2 packs. Since I had not played much when I first started I still considered myself a beginner and was told that they would be good as a way to get back into the game and work on technique. Now, my technique is still developing, but I have noticed a one thing with the starter set:
As I said, my technique can still improve, but I do my best to take my time each throw and follow through with the shot as is intended for the proper speed and flight. What I want to know is if I should use these still and get more comfortable with them and eventually get them to fly the way I need them too or if I should move up to heavier and better plastic discs now and not waste my time?
Just for reference, the discs that came in the Innova starter set are:
All the discs are about 145-150g in weight.
Thanks for all your help!
Cheers!

Now, my technique is still developing, but I have noticed a one thing with the starter set:
- The discs are over-stable as a way to help new players however, I am noticing that with the strength that I give them at times, they fly completely opposite of what it states on the disc. I have to tailor my strength too much to get them to fly just right, but a lot of times my throw is too strong and the disc either goes completely straight with no fade to the left or the disc just becomes too under-stable, which goes flying 50 ft. from the basket.
