The Roc is too much disc for 100'. You should do like the top pro's and follow this basic rule of thumb.
over 400' throw a Teebird
300'-400' use the legendary Roc
200'-300' time to break out the putter
Anything under 200' If you can't hit it with your mini you have serious form issues.

People accuse me of drifting threads all the time, but I have never drug a discussion of a golf disc into a conversation about middle-earth.
Types of Rocs:
History of the different kinds of Rocs:[FONT="][4][/FONT]
1) Original Roc 21.2 cm diameter - narrow rim, one of the first discs with a bead, and was basically a beaded version
of the XD. This disc was first released around 1987, and discontinued around 1992.
Drug.... did I hear something about Drugs??
The original 21.2 cm diameter disc came back in '95 as the "Classic Roc." It has the "Roc" name, but it should be considered a completely different unrelated disc to the other Roc's. It is nothing like a Roc.
There is also the Ching roc or "full color" roc. This is a dx disc that has a stamp on top in full color and tends to have a slightly flatter top for this reason.
So for someone who has never thrown a ROC, but would like to try one out ... what is the best first ROC to get?
Every run will be slightly different in terms of shape...this is caused by the how quickly the disc cools after it comes out of the injection mold, which is heavily affected by the outside temp and humidity at that given time.
Why can't Innova build an environment-controlled cooling booth to cool the discs properly instead of leaving it out in the open area where it can be exposes to unpredictable temp/humidity??
Makes no senses...
probably because the number of disc golfers with this level of concern is extremely minimal.
no offense intended to anyone who has this level of concern.
my opinion is the first time you throw that disc it is going to hit something (ground counts) and no longer be in the exact same shape as it was when it was formed. heck, my discs sit in their bag all summer in the trunk on hot days. that must warp them at least slightly. and then all winter as well. every champ innova disc i've seen so far once it gets to warm the top starts to cave in. just my opinion of course.
Well, if you are going to take a Roc and a Buzzz and expect the Roc to knock your socks off and be so much better than the Buzzz that you want to convert on the spot, I'm afraid you will be disappointed. The Buzzz is a very solid disc and should perform very well compared to the Roc.after reading about how good the roc seems to be i decided to give it another try...i just traded and got a brand new roc and im gonna see if it will take the place of my buzz
