I have been playing 4-7 rounds a week for almost two years and have 7 aces, one at 275' uphill and one at 375' on the flat, the rest all shorter.
Last month on the same 375' hole that I aced last fall, I hit basket on back to back throws. One top right and the other skiped into center bottom. Both discs ended up less than 6' from the basket. I threw Blizzard Wraiths at full power that, if thrown at full power, peter out at that exact distance (chain high) and I have never ended up further than 15' behind this basket using those discs.
If the basket were 335', I would do the same only with a max weight Leopard or hyzer spike an Orc with an arch reaching up to 60'.
275' the same with a max weight XD or hyzer spike a Teebird from 50' up.
None of those shots would end up more than 15' past the basket, all would have a chance at chains. Use the disc to prevent overshooting, not underpowering a faster disc. An ace should not be an accident nor should going for one be a risk.
