[Recommend] Build me a single brand bag

Fun fact, the second label to sign Hootie and the Blowfish, after the flop of their album "Fairweather Johnson" was called Sneaky Long Records.

The more you know.
 
Guess I'll go with Vibram since I doubt anyone else will. All max weight unless stated.

Putters:

Sole x2 (for actual putting, close to an Aviar, firm or medium depending on preference)
VP (firm for upshots)
Ridge (firm for shaping approaches

Mids:

Ibex x2 (one firm that's straight flying, one med that's understable)
Obex x2 (firm overstable, medium flys like a beat Roc)

Fairway:

Trak (medium anny and rollers)
Ascent x2 (firm OS/skip/FH, medium 168-170 turnover control driver similar to a leopard)

Driver:

Unlace (long range super flippy roller, low ceiling low power shots, controllable lines)
Lace x2 (medium roller, firm downwind driver and anny)
OLace x2 (medium the go to driver similar to boss, firm OS FH driver and skip shots)

Honestly I've played a lot of courses just using the three fairway drivers but the others giv great flexibility. All have great grip under any condition.

nice! I'll throw my choices in.

drivers:
unlace medium x2 dirty rollers, annys, and tailwind's
lace medium main driver
olace medium wind fighter, side arms, fh rollers

fairways:
firm ascent x2 one fresh one broke in for slow turnovers

mids:
soft ibex straight to stable shots
firm ibex stable hyzer shots

putters:
VP wind
ridge stable goto putter
summer under stable duties
 
Since nobody has done Discraft yet, I'll take a shot at it. I tried to keep it as similar to your bag as possible. If I were going to make a bag like this for myself, I would obviously just have the bag in my signature, but with Challengers instead of P2's. Also, you could substitute the Mantis for the Tracker or the Crank for the Nukes, depending on your preferences.

Putters
  • Challenger (Pro D x3) - Drives, upshots, putting
  • Zone (Cryztal Flx) - Hyzer upshots

Midranges
  • Meteor (ESP) - Slow turnovers and Annys
  • Buzzzes (10 Yr, ESP) - Most midrange shots
  • Hornet (Z) - Hard fading midrange shots.

Fairway Drivers
  • Tracker (Z) - Straight to fade
  • XL (Z) - Straight and turnovers
  • Predator (any plastic) - Forehand mostly

Drivers
  • Avenger SS (Z or ESP) - Long Annys and Turnovers
  • Surge SS (Z) - Slow turnover, left-to-right distance.
  • Surge (Z) - Straight with fade
  • Force (ESP) - Long RHBH shots that finish left
  • Force (Z) - Long RHFH shots that need to finish right

Max Distance
  • Nuke (ESP) - RHBH distance with a little bit of turn
  • Nuke (Z) - Safe RHBH distance. I know it will finish left
  • Nuke (Ti) - RHFH max distance
 
Here is the quick rundown of what I have in my mixed bag. I'm interested to hear what the brand-loyalists would recommend if I was to switch entirely to your favorite brand.

Putters
  • Pa1 (or Pa2 Pa3) (300) - putting
  • Pa4 (400) - Understable/Anhyzer upshots
  • Pa1 (400) - Drives, Hyzer upshots

Midranges
  • M5 (or M4) - Slow turnovers and Annys
  • M3 (or M4) - Most midrange shots
  • M2 (or M1) - Hard fading midrange shots.

Fairway Drivers
  • F7-Understable
    F5-Straight
    F3-Straight, slightly OS, shaping shots
    F2-Stable, more overstable finish

Drivers
  • D5 - Long Annys and Turnovers
  • D4 - Slow turnover, left-to-right distance.
  • D3 - Power Driver, stable enough, but not crazy overstable
  • D2 - Long RHBH shots that finish left
  • X1 - Long RHFH shots that need to finish right

I threw Challengers, XLs, and Nukes last year. And I've had an Avenger SS in an out of the bag a lot over the last couple years. I think I could do very well with a Discraft bag.
 
Might add in an ESP Avenger into the Discraft bag, great disc that is between the force and surge stability wise, flies nice and straight with predictable fade.
 
MVP/Axiom

Putters
  • envy

Midranges
  • Tangent
  • Axis/Alias
  • Tensor

Fairway Drivers
  • Crave/Inspire
  • Resistor

Drivers
  • Inertia
  • Volt
  • Tesla
  • Motion

I use the inertia for "max" d drives and my P volts which just fly too far on a straight line not to throw them lol.

I think I'm going to build this bag for a casual round at my course. My tourney bag is a mixed setup but wondering how this might be fun! Looks like I need to buy a small bag!

Whoa whoa whoa, wait a minute! You're telling me that Medium Vibram plastic is less stable than Firm Vibram plastic??

  • Zone (Cryztal Flx) - Hyzer upshots

Midranges
  • Comet (ESP) - Slow turnovers and Annys (Meteors are too fast for slow turnovers)
  • Buzzzes (Z) - Most midrange shots

My changes are in bold. In going Discraft, you could simplify a ton.
