What's wrong with Rocs?
I get impatient. Other than that, nothing. :hfive:

Impatient to beat one understable?
Throw a Dx cobra or stingray in until you get a Roc where you want it. Then you're not blowing the whole thing up.
Or switch, if you feel you'll be better off. I don't care.
Mortar
Verdict/Roc3
Z Buzzz SS/Star Mako3
TP Tursas

Man there are a lot of good mids. My biggest headscratcher left at this point is - will the BuzzzSS start to overlap with the Tursas if I'm not careful? The SS I used to own was actually plenty stable for my power at the time, so maybe I'd be OK.
Same concern with the Star Mako3 - say I throw it on practically every hole, and pull out the Tursas only on technical shots... I could see the Mako3 beating into overlap. At that point I might consider grabbing a JL Mako3, likely max weight. Can anyone comment on the relative stability and life cycle of the star and JL Mako3s?
A Champion Mako3 is not going to season in for a long, long time... if ever.
I feel the same way when DD gets recommended...
Hey dudes,
I'm looking at possibly replacing a KC/DX Rancho Roc cycle with premium plastic mids. Presently I'm not far invested in the cycle and have a beat KC, some DX, and a comet and possibly mortar as US/OS bookends.
Alternatively I'm thinking of bagging a tursas as an US mid and one of the following two lineups:
TP Tursas 174g
Star Mako3 175ish g
Star 175ishg or beat champ 180g Roc3, cycle in the star maybe
Mortar or the like
-OR-
TP Tursas 174g
Ti Buzzz 175ish g / a BuzzzSS+Buzzz combo
Mortar or the like, possibly a BuzzzOS+zone combo
My fairways are speed 6-7 innova and my driving putters are judges, shields or pures, if that matters.
I don't see a clear advantage of one over the other, aside from the fact that the leaps in stability are possibly more evenly spaced between mortar / roc3 / mako3 / tursas vs the possible overlap between beefy Z buzzz / buzzzSS / tursas. I think if anything the idea of slimming down to a tursas / beefy buzzz / mortar sounds the nicest. Thoughts?
stick with your Rocs. Roc Roc Roc Roc!
Bruh. Stop it.
I've owned and thrown flippy Predators, Banshees, Gators, and tons of other overstable to neutral/stable molds in premium plastics. Z Wasp? Yup. Q Sentinel? Yup. Champ Rhyno? Yup. See the trend? I'm certain other people on this site have the same or similar experience as me, and I'm even more certain people that don't even know or care that these forums exists would agree with me too.
Just because you're not beating them in because you replace new discs with new discs doesn't mean it's fact. ALL DISCS BREAK IN REGARDLESS OF PLASTIC OR FLIGHT NUMBERS. Or glob forbid you actually keep a mold in your bag long enough to reach 5/10? You admit yourself you don't even really break 300' - just chill with the nonsense.
Idk why i feel the need to comment on this, cuz i really dont care...but the post you're slamming is (kind of) right. Champ type discs will take forever to season. And depending on the courses you play, you might not ever see a substantial change.
Or maybe youre smoking the 1st available tree off the tee at warp speed every hole? I guess thatd expedite the process...
DD has the best mid line up, and it's not even close.

Obsolete. Will be oop soon.
How do you figure? I do not see it as OOP, KC Plastic is what helped keep the disc around. Much as I can't figure out the flight path of a ROC to work for me. Classic ROC yes that is gone OOP Mostly with just a Star + mold version being made.
