Threw in my second PDGA tournament in Mississippi at two new courses to myself. shot a +3 (865 rated) one course and +2 (840 rated) the second course. Currently at 820. Goal for the end of the 2017-2018 season is to get to a 900 rating and have fun most of all.

The XCal has been great for long forehnad drives and if I want more beef than my firebirds/destroyers.
The R pro dart is amazing and has been great for straight/anny apporaches.

Nice bag seems like it's not crazy overwhelming. How is that dart. Seems to be straighter than a avaiar3 though?
My bad thought took aviar3 out

Yeah I played around with the Rpro Dart and star Aviar 3.

The dart was far flying and straight with slight fade at the end. Almost mid range.
The aviar 3 wasnt OS enough and didnt do great with FHs.

So I decided that I would throw rocs with holes that were 225-325ish and just dial them down. Then use the nova and Bighorns for short drives/approaches due to the nova just doing nova things (sticking, no slide, can put on any angle and it will hold it).
