i want a lot of fade. i am trying to go around a tree that is ten feet in front of me. i need to go out about 50 the fade back fifty feet. i try the pig usually and it just runs out of juice. mabey i should throw it higher with more snap. i just cant get a lot of fade with low power throws. i try some throws today and see what happens.
This is where it gets a little creative...you don't have to use an overstable disc to do a big hyzer. As you stated, the Pig runs out of juice. A Pig is very overstable with very little glide. You need something that will make that big turn, but not just fall off the line but rather hold onto the line.
If the tree is right in front of you, does that mean that once you are past it, the route is wide open? That should give you several options.
Try a stable mid or fairway driver...not necessarily overstable, but I've thrown Rocs and Eagles up high to the right on lower power to get big fades. To get 50 ft of fade, you will need to go on a higher line, I'm sure, to give it enough time to come back.
If the tree is that close, can you go under it? Some type of skip shot, maybe with the disc upside down, and skip it under the basket, or close enough for a putt? Maybe even a FH roller, thrown down at the ground.
