Ha ha "favourite" - I didn't notice that. So much for my job as their proof-reader. "favourite" is repeated on several other pages.

Seems pretty odd that you're buying discs since you don't play disc golf.
Good one. i actually have been getting out a lot. couple times a week at least.
ha, this is why you ship to the office! haha
I trust facebook as much as I trust the distances people claim they can throw here on DGCR.

My 170 D1 scaled at 172.9. Sooo. I haven't scaled my 168. Or my 174 D4.

I scaled 40 Prodigy discs at Disc Golf World in KC today and only a few weighed exactly what was written on the rim of the disc. The rest of the entire (being very conservative 80%)lot weighed more that what was written on the rim. Most were 1-2 g's heavier and a couple were as much as 3g's off. 1g off, I understand. 3g's off, that's a little outside what I would consider 'reasonable'. Either way, I picked up a D1 and a D4.
Sounds like they were made in a dry climate and then shipped to a more humid climate and all the discs picked up some moisture after they were weighed if it's that consistent.
What? This new company hasn't provided the quality control miracle that the grapevine here supposedly promised? Say it ain't so!

I scale disc all the time from every manufacturer and they are off more
times than not. When you are talking about 1-2 grams that equals a little more
than a half percent off.
Have you ever tried to measure your pants? A half inch variance is industry standard.
How do these disc fly is what should be discussed. Anybody throwing them yet?

Innova has well documented weight inconsistencies. Hopefully Prodigy doesn't follow the same business path as that mickey mouse operation. I bet they don't even have two nickels to rub together.

maybe all companies should just put stickers on their discs with a Approximate weight so throwfromthewoods is happy..... its between 100-200g

:clap: i see what you did there!!
Just like mashnut said, because of the materials used (Vibram notwithstanding), discs are hygroscopic and, as such, may change in weight due to the amount of moisture that has been absorbed/lost based on the climate.

Apparently my sarcasm shift key wasn't pressed hard enough. Or some people didn't get the point. I was saying that despite the weight issues all manufacturers seem to have, Innova is still the most profitable company in disc golf. So Prodigy shouldn't be too worried.
I was just saying it the opposite way in an obvious irony. But instead it got read as standard "Innova bashing" without regard for the intent. Misconceptions are fun!
See what I did there, Glass?
