Im going to be buying 2 drivers and 2 midrange discs for begginers since ive lost 2 drivers, 2 midrange, and 1 putter. Disc names and prices would help. Thanks. (Respond by Saturday, May 19th)
 
Teebird
Leopard

Buzzz
Comet

That's about 90% of my tee shots right there. :thmbup:
 
drivers: Teebird, Leopard, and maybe the Beast if you have played some.
mids: Shark, Roc
$8 to $18 depending on grade of plastic you want
All are good discs to start out with
 
Understable driver: Gold line river $15ish or Pro Leopard $12ish
Stable to overstable driver: Champ Teebird $14ish or star eagle $16ish

Stable to overstable mid: Z Buzzz $14ish or KC Pro Roc $12ish
Understable mid: Gold line fuse $16ish Z comet $13ish
 
I'm mostly an Innova guy, so I'd recommend what I believe they sell in their basic start set. That's a Leopard, Shark, and Aviar. Should run about $25 for the set.

The Buzzz is a great disc (disccraft) to have too. Easy to throw and almost always seems to "do what I expected it to". If you play in a lot of wind, something like a wizard (gateway) or Ryhno is soft plastic would be nice. If you want to add a longer range driver (and have the arm to throw it) you could do something pretty stable like a Destroyer or Nuke SS...

Nuke SS & stable in the same paragraph= epic fail
 
Innova Dx Roc $8
Lat 64 Opto Core $15

Innova Champion Eagle X $15
Lat 64 Gold line River $18 (or a Discmania C-line FD)
 
I recommend buzzz or roc or something similar in the neutral to slightly overstable range (core, axis) for midranges. Something understable like a fuse or comet would be a decent discs as well

For drivers i would recommend something slower (speed 9 or lower) and slightly over stable to understable (teebird, leopard, stalker, XL, river)

Another idea would be tweener type discs like a squall or warrior that has a midrange feel, but fairway driver distance.
 
Drivers

Pro Leopard
DX Gazelle/X Cyclone

Mids

DX Roc
X Buzzz


Putter

JK Aviar or MVP Ion


Also, keep it light weights, I'd say low to mid 160's.

Yes, for the drivers, but I would suggest heavier for the mids/putter. Low 170s.
 
As said before stay slower. Grab yourself a Dx teebird($9) a pro leopard($11), a Dx stringray($9) and if you want to stay innova a kc pro yeti($11).
 
Teebird, Leopard, Buzzz, Meteor.

I'm a big fan of premium plastic so I'd get Champion/Z or Star/ESP (the Meteor only comes in ESP) I'd get the Leopard in the 150-160 range. The premium plastic will run you $15-$20 each. Yes its twice the price but they'll last 10 times as long.

You learn to throw those 4 discs well you might never have to try another mold.
 
I would have to say go with either a roadrunner or a mamba if you need something to go straight a long ways for a beginner as for a midrange I would say buzzSS they go straight and hold anhyzer brand new...
