[Discraft] Paul McBeth Malta

What non-Z Stalkers are you referring to? I picked up TI Ledgestone one but haven't thrown it yet. I've been throwing the Z but I don't know about it anymore. It doesn't fly like a Teebird at all for me. Maybe a way more cumbersome Leopard 3, but not even that. It's no Teebird though.

Also if you wanted a Discraft Shryke you could just buy an Innova Shryke. They make the best Shrykes 😉

I'm referring to the original Ti, new Swirly Ti, and Paige's ESP sig series.
 
Tried one and loved how it felt in my hand, despite being beaded (which I don't generally like). Use it for shots I can't reach with the Zone, and forehands here and there. It's also very pretty. Staying in my bag for the time being.
 
I feel the Malta is more overstable than the Wasp (at least one I have). The Malta comes out when I need to fade left or when I am driving into a headwind. I bag the Buzzz, Malta, and Meteor. If I didn't bag the Malta then the drone would be there instead.
 
If the newer runs of the Malta aren't overstable enough then the Drone will be back in my bag instead.
 
I love the feel of this disc and the plastic. It is working well for my in one my my mid spots. I don't buy to collect or because a pro throws anything... I'm so far from that level anyway...haha. If it feels right and does what it is supposed to when I throw it correctly, it generally works for me.
 
So I've actually gone back to throwing a Malta at least for the winter as its part of McBeth's X Plastic "Premium" starter set that I bought for the Luna and Zeus really. It's quite a bit different than I remember the Malta flying which is good. It's a nicely OS mid, basically a Roc3, maybe a touch more OS. I'm going to have to dig out my lavender TF and see if they pair nicely enough with my Comets that I don't really need a Buzzz (but will still carry one, just cause ya know) in my attempt to go back to a wholly Discraft bag again.

I've got a pair of the X Maltas now so maybe I can start a cycle of them and pair it with a Big Z or ESP and have Comets to cover the S to US side of my mids. I'm going to have to play some one disc rounds with them once it warms up and see if they break in like I hope.
