I've been playing for quite a while now , since the late 90's/early 2000. Just mentioned that so you have a point of reference as to my experience.
My daughter just turned 9 , and she occasionally comes with me to the golf course , sometimes she plays, sometimes she just tags along. This year I found a 144g DX Shark, and she has been using it with fair success. However, I Just picked up a 146g DX Aero for her as a Christmas gift. My thought was that the Aero is neutral/very slightly understable, has little to no fade ,and it has tons of glide . I thought this would be a good disc for her to establish her form and learn the ins and outs of Hyzer/Anhyzer etc without having the disc influence her form too much. The speed 3 and big glide of 6 should hopefully work well for her and allow her to get reasonable distance from her lil arm.
She isn't a little kid, she's pretty good sized (about 51" and 80lbs) but she is still just a 9 yr old girl, so I thought a lower speed disc with good glide would encourage her to play if she sees she is able to get some good distance on it.
Any other discs you guys/gals could recommend ? Does my train of thought make sense to you ?
Any suggestions/thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks for your help/insight.
