i would agree. doesn't seem to match the fuse or mace or core. cool looking disc.
*edit* though i now just looked at my fuse and now i'm not sure.

Pain and Fuse are pretty different. The Pain kinda looks like a Roc, but without the prominent bead.

they are pretty different, i agree - but it's tough to tell from those two pics since there is no real perspective. i wish i still had my pain to compare directly to. :doh: gave it away to someone who found it.

What is the Story on this disc . . .
I will put up better pictures tonight when I get home, but here are the details:
Top of disc has the following info:
Made in USA - Official R.D.G.A Disc Golf Disc - 1995
Recreational Discraft Magnet - MFD Exclusively for DGA INC Watsonville CA
Putter - RDGA & PDGA Approved
Bottom of disc has the following info:
Magnet by Discraft Inc, Walled Lake MI 48390
So what exactly do I have here?

In the mid-to-late 90's DGA sold a line of 150 class "Recreational" discs under the RDGA label. The RDGA was a org that DGA started; it had a one time "lifetime" membership. It didn't do anything so it was kinda pointless. Anyway, that was when the DGA/Discraft partnership started and the RDGA discs were just 150 class versions of existing Discraft discs in crappier plastic.
So what you have is a 150 class Magnet in crappy plastic with a DGA stamp.

Thanks for the info. I guess it will suck as a thrower, but does play a part in disc golf's history.
Don't know if they're still there, but a while back at the head shop I saw 2 5x JK Aviars. One was stamped "5x", while the other was stamped "Five Time". Any difference in flight or collectibility between the two?

Yep, I've seen some clear star Coyotes. Not really sure what it's about.

Nice looking stamp on the one you got. DGV has them for $8.95, because they're technically a X-Out.

They're Champion plastic, stamped as Star. Not sure why.

8.95 is much better then what I paid, but the disc is cool. Do come in anything other than a Coyote?

Uh...that's a patent pending beadless Aviar. It's from '83? Really early anyway. Cool pickup. :thmbup:

Interesting thing is I would grade it 8/10, they had it for 3.99 plus tax. Normally, all they have new stuff, I stop there when I am visiting clients. This time they had a nice amount of used stuff. Thanks for the information.
