I have recently purchased a 158g one and was pleasently surprised by the glide and ease of throwing with it. I didnt outdrive my destroyer, but i havent owned one for very long. One thing though was how easy it was dinged, I had thrown it like 5 times and twice into a tree 375' away and it was already dinged. I did have to put some good hyzer or it flipped easy though, i did enjoy throwing it and look forward to more.

Does anyone have good or bad thoughts on theirs?
 
I like my 161 (175 Champ was a bit much for me), but I don't really use it a lot because it needs a lot of room to work. Also, cause it dings so easy I only throw it on holes where it's not overly-rocky or wooded. Add all that together and I hardly ever get to use it. I mean, it's the highest speed disc with the softest plastic...not the most logical combination, especially if you can handle a heavier version in premium plastic.
 
Keep in mind, I've only used my 163g R-Pro Boss for one round, but I am pretty uncertain that it can be useful for a regular disc. The first several throws it flipped over and turned into a roller. I tried doing hyzer flips, but it was still too understable for that. Then I tried throwing at about 50-60% of my normal power, and it finally flew normal. Without putting much strength at all into the throw, it went nearly as long as my Wraith/Destroyer would have at full power (but not quite). I did notice it still took a bigger "S" than any of my other discs.

I don't know...It may be useful getting out of trouble when I can't throw full power because of restricted motion, but it still seems pretty unpredictable.
 
I have a 150 r-pro boss, and same as you guys, its is getting beat up so fast, its gonna be shot in 2 weeks. It needs a lot of room to flip and i am still not very accurate with it, but for a 150 i can get an easy 340' out of it.
 
when i threw it, it was pretty straight till the slow speed fade hit. it had barely S'ed at all. dont know what i did different but out at whistlers bend here the back nine is extremely open and a long straight disc is just what the doctor ordered for the 400'-500'+ holes
