I just purchased a hole 7 leather bag and I feel like that is the perfect bag to put some old plastic into. Looking for suggestions on a classic bag with a date restriction on it. Please help me out, post a date and under 12 discs.


Vitals:
Years playing/experience: 25 years
Right/left-handed/ambidextrous: right-handed
Throwing Style: RHBH, RHFH up to 250'
Golf Distance (avg/max) for putter: 250/300'; Mid: 300/340'; Driver: 380/400'



Cutoff year: 1991

Drivers:
180 DX viper (fresh, OS distance)
180 DX viper (worn, workhorse driver)
180 DX viper (beat, straight driver)
160 DX viper (beat, turnover driver)

Mids:
180 DX Rancho Roc (fresh)
180 DX Rancho Roc (Worn)
180 DX Rancho Roc (beat)
180 DX Ontario Roc (beat)

Putters:
175 XD (putting)
175 XD (throwing)
175 Hammer (small diameter) (throwing)

Thoughts: I have never beat a viper into turnover status so I'm not sure how that will work out. Also I feel limited in OS putters for driving, which is a more modern throwing style. The hammer with a bead would hopefully keep some stability going.
 
I have thought about rotating Vipers instead of Gazelles in my bag. The problem I have found is the Star takes to long to beat in. Champs are too stupid OS. The DX doesn't really really hold a nice Gazelle OS long enough. I have thrown a Hammer. It isn't OS by any means.

If you want some non-Innova options, there are a number of Lightning discs that you can get still in production from pre-1991, the Rubber Putter (AT6 Texan), #2 Roller (B-17), #3 Slice (F14), #2 Driver (F15), #2 Flyer (B2), #3 Hyzer (F18), etc.

Man I don't know if this meets any of your requirements.....but a good old cactus stamp Discraft Cyclone belongs in the bag. It just does:)

Cactus Clone was for sure a thought, and the only reason I put together the bag I did was to move the date back to '91. If I moved the date to '93 it also opens up magnets for putting which I prefer to the other putters available in 91.
