I have a buddy with a champion Panther (I know you said no champion but you could get it on star) and that is a brilliant midrange. Probably two times a round I find myself saying "hey, you using the panther?"
I prefer base plastic for mids, although I am willing to go with Star-type premium plastic as well. I don't like champion style plastic, so please don't suggest a Z Comet.
It's going to be really nice, one day, when I read this in a thread and can suggest a few MVP/Axiom discs.
Yep! Tangent and Theory got suggested anyway (in Neutron or Plasma which are Star-like and thus meet the lower bar of the acceptance criteria). I mean to try one of those eventually as well; been hearing the Gyro guys singing the Tangent's praises for years now.
I wouldn't mind trying some of the MVP/Axiom mids in a firm Electron someday though. Electron does feel really nice although the Atoms I had didn't seem super durable, so might need a firmer version for mids.

Yea, the Tangent is a great disc. I don't bag it because my Axis has seasoned enough that it's understable, but it took forever to get there.
BTW, it's nice to see a thread like this where the OP actually responds. LOL.
(I know you're a DGCR vet, but just saying)
This non-Gyro person also likes the Tangent. My only issue with Gyro mids like the Axis and Tangent are that I'm not comfortable with powering down with them. Aside from that, the Axis and Tangent are good discs.
Are you not comfortable powering them down because they fade too much or don't turn as much when powered down or some other reason?
Haha, thanks! I think in a thread where I'm asking for specific advice, I should respond to at least some of the posts. I don't have time to respond to all of them of course. Also, posting follow ups about what I've actually tried and how it turned out might be helpful for others reading the thread later.
Yeah this is helpful, I'd like to try a Fuse sometime now too as a turnover mid (I also throw mids ~330', but often 250-330' range is where they are brought out). I hadn't seen them talked about much recently, and just assumed they were too flippy if you could throw mids 300'. I guess not at all. I have been using a Core for this shot but it won't be a real turnover unless it has at least 300' of power on it. Recycled Claymore is a bit less stable when it's thrown 275'+, but it can get finicky at too much power. I do like the Core a lot though, glidey and straight.
My GL Fuse is super flippy, I don't think it's even possible to get it out to 330ft without it flipping into a roller. It's very light tho, only 169g.
