Vitals:
Years playing/experience: DG 3 years.
Right/left-handed/ambidextrous: R
Throwing Style: mainly RHBH, some RHFH
Golf Distance (avg/max*) for putter/mid/driver: Neutron soft Envy: 280/300'; Matrix 280/300, Volt 320/350'; G* destroyer 360/400'
Optional:
Age: 39
Sex: M
Injuries/handicaps?: Old and overweight
What do you like/dislike about your current bag?: I like my putters, but find it hard to find a balanced distance driver setup
Specific areas of desired feedback: I throw pretty far for an older and newish player (above distances are not "internet" distances) but I'm not very accurate with my approaches. Still I'm happy with most of my putter selection but unhappy with the drivers since there is too much overlap and too many molds.
Bag:
All discs are max weight or very close to it unless otherwise stated
Putters:
1) Bt hard Swan- puts and sharpish turnovers
2) Plasma proxy (somewhat beat), short straight drives without fade and longer slow turnovers (rarely used, maybe could ditch it)
3) Plasma envy (somewhat beat) longer straight drives and annys
4) Soft neutron envy (pretty new) open drives upto 300ft with reliable fade (most used disc in the bag)
5) K2 berg (new) approaches 50ft-180ft Straight, glideless, never turns and still a very small fade
6) Zone, overstable utility disc
Mids (rarely used except when low ceiling since I get the same distance with the Envys)
1) GL fuse (new): some straight tunnel shots hyzerflipped and slow turnovers in the woods
2) Proton matrix (beat) Straight to fade shots
3) Neutron matrix (new) more overstable than the proton, primarily a forehand and headwind disc
Fairways:
1) 400 F5 (somehwat beat), turnovers
2) GL river (new)straight tunnel shots when I don't want fade (for some reason the F5 works well as a turnover disc but not as slighly hyzerflipped straight disc for me)
3) Plasma crave (new), staight to slight fade tunnel shots, not used much
4) Proton volt (new), straight to fade backhand and most forehand shots (my second most used disc after the envy)
5) Plasma volt (newish), less stable than proton, used for open drives for example when I have to throw a higher straight shot over some bushes etc, or for max distance uphill when I can't power up my distance drivers properly
6) Star firebird (beat), utility, flex shots, used to throw a lot of forehand shots with this, but proton volt has mostly taken over
Distance drivers (this is a mess, I change these all the time)
1) G*destroyer 170g (newish) straigh to fade
2) G* destroyer 175g new (less stable than above), straight to fade with considerable turn, more distance
3) G* shryke, large S curve, max distance (slightly more than the flippier G* destroyer)
4) Plasma inertia (new) gradual left to right turnovers without hardly any fade
Since all of the above seem to turn over and ride right in even mild headwind or unclean throw including the 170g G* destroyer, I have incorporated the followin
5) Star Shryke (new) max distance, but even though seems more stable than G*destroyers, behaves somewhat erratically and not very accurate compared to them
6) Fuzion Tresspass (new) More reliable and stable than the G* destroyers (even in mild headwind or downhill), taking over the role of primary distance driver, does not glide as well though
7) Star destroyer (new 4x Paul) or champion Boss (somewhat beat) strong headwind or downhill discs, max distance FH flex lines. I keep changing which one to carry since I orefer the Boss but would like to reduce molds so the destroyer would be better in that regard.
One problem seems to be that I love the G*destroyers but since I have gotten some more distance this fall, they have become a bit too flippy in many situations. But the Star destroyer on the other hand is way too stable to get a good flight when calm unless I put some anny and flex it. Need something in between and the Tresspass is taking up that role.
People advocate cycling but I work and have a small child so time is limited to break in discs. Additionally I keep losing the distance drivers in bushes or water before they break in.
Any advice would be appreciated, sorry for the long post.
