Introducing SD, Salient Discs

[The Hammer]

I'm going to start a new disc company that bucks the trends.

"We are going to do nothing that changes the game. Our discs will be the most inconsistent discs ever thrown! Everyone is trying to imitate CE, so we are releasing our discs is less durable plastic than DX, with the grip of Star soaked in motor oil, and the price point will start at $30. Our team will consist of the finest Rec players in the world."

Yeah how bout that marketing technique! Reverse psychology lol

So many Disc manufacturing companies...how are we supposed to choose? I really expect consolidation, instead of more new companies. But hey, if your discs are great, people will buy them!

Good luck with your new venture.

 

[Toro71]

In that case, it needs more "ya'lls" and "yutes".

Ummm, it's spelled "y'alls." As in "you alls." lol

Dang! lol

I agree, it is already overwhelming enough, but a lot of people like to keep an open mind and i think the Prometheus has already sparked quite a bid of interest, including myself of course. Thanks for the good luck

Prometheis was meant to spelled the way it is as not to confuse with the Ridley Scott movie.

Secondly the mock website wasn't even supposed to be available yet and someone found it and posted the link. We will be taking it down tonight.

As for the grammar, I could care less what a few trolls think, the MD behind my names speaks MUCH more to what I represent.

And we aren't trying to change the game, we are trying to make it better by giving another option of discs and all percentages of sales will go towards building a large tournament series where guys can make a decent living. We are just beginning but have a plan in place to make it happen.

 

[The Hammer]

I highly doubt you have trouble finding testers; but if you need a blow-hard forum jockey as a tester, I'd be happy to help.

 

[Toro71]

I think people are just tired of the "were going to change disc golf" attitude. It sounds interesting as it is, don't build it up as a game changer. If it is it is and that will be clear when it happens.

I agree pretty strongly with this. It's like when they ask an athlete or other notable "what is your legacy going to be." It's not like it's their call. They do their thing. History will decide.

It's too bold to call oneself a changer before the game has even changed.

But, I have no problem with the enthusiasm here, or the facts of what they think will make them different from the other guy. "Game changer," like "genius" is a word that's sort of meaningless if self-applied.

These are the last updates that will be given until we release, the rest is non-disclosure between the owners. Peace

I'm a rec player, and can throw 250'. My best game is a +5, and that is with mulligans. Even so, I have a boss, wraith, and lace in my bag and watch them meat hook every time. Can I be on your team?

Absolutely! You have to promise to putt with our fastest driver, though. It's fast so you know it good!

Except, to totally embrace it, you'll need to sponsor the 10-12 lowest rated players with active PDGA numbers.

I can see the campaign now:

"With under 1 world championship among them...."

 

[Uncle Dougie]

Although I don't foresee nearly as much hype with this launch as with Prodigy, due to the lack of star power.

If these discs turn out to be the real deal and blow away what is already out there, they won't need any star power. :|
