hmmm.. so softer protege? i was hoping it would be the nice stiff stuff like my Clozers
The recent team stamped protege clutches are also softer than the original diamond plating stamped protege clutches. I was disappointed at first, but have come to really like this mix. Just a touch more grip to it. But it does feel and wear similar to the Excel plastic I have been picking up lately.
I received a pink 176g and white 177g gauge in the mail today and i gotta say I'm really digging this disc. I was looking to replace my comets with this disc and was able to throw it on all the same lines & distance with the exception of the gauge fighting out of an anhyzer a little more, which I expect to go away with time. The one thing I did notice was the gauge seemed to "punch" through branches/leaves where my comets would drop or wobble off line.
yeah i dont want to hate on the Comet at all.. i LOVE that mold and threw it for years.. but yeah the Gauge is awful nice lol and like you it and my seasoned Excel Ghosts have knocked it from the bag .. i throw mine a ton on similar lines.. anhyzer, hyzers, you name it the disc is capable of doing it all .. you get Icon or Pinnacle?
Went and played a Monday night handicap league last night with the following my small bag and ended up shooting the hot round for the night and taking down top spot after hcp was calculated in. I think I threw four molds the entire night. Patriot, Clutch, Ghost and Gauge. Every time I stepped up to a hole that was under 400, it was Patriot time.

10-4 .. i had heard about them releasing some softer protege .. i sure do like my stiffs but im sure i will get some of the softer ones eventually .. i have a lil stack of stiff protege i will be able to use for a bit.. im sure i will like the lil softer blend as well.. on the ghosts though boy it would have been sweet if it was the stiff blend.. i assume the original protege ghosts are the stiff like i want but god knows what i would have to pay for them if i could even find them
So i decided to try out a pinnacle gauge a few weeks ago and took out my fuse to give it a fair trial,man this disc is sweet!. I picked up some light purple/pink 174-176 gauges as they felt much more gummy than the semi stiff higher weights. This thing has been working amazing,glides for days,slow turn,sneaky long. Took me a little while to learn it but its getting more throws and i like it a lot.
