[Recommend] Large Diameter Beaded OS Mid

[Lumberjack504]

Hello all,

I'm continuing my never-ending search for an overstable mid that feels like a roc and flies like a Buzzz OS. Decent beef but decent glide. I push rocs out to the 325' ball park, for reference.

Criteria:
1. Stock disc (read: relatively easy to replace)
2. Beaded and large diameter

Current contenders:
- Bard (doesn't seem to satisfy criterion 1 at the moment)
- Lat 64 anchor
- Wasp (the wasp thread here doesn't make it sound like current runs are quite that OS)

Does this disc exist, or am I chasing the dragon?

lolol you need an os mid

I think the answer to the search is the gila from RDG. Might not be as readily available as you'd like but the flight and feel are pretty spot on.

No, I WANT one, and I want it NOWWWWWW

Millennium Sentinel?

Isn't that new McMoneymaker disc a beaded mid too?

Need to revisit the sentinel.

You talking about the Malta? I think it's putter diameter but I'll look into it.

RocX3

I'm open to trying another one, but I remember it being pretty roc-esque mid-flight before a dumpy fade

 

[TurnedOver]

More like a Roc3 mid-flight with more fade.

I'd say Malta could be a contender. It's not super wide, but not driver narrow either. Feel is good in the hand. I think the RocX3 is deeper like a Buzzz OS.

malta is small diameter

do yall even throw the discs you talk about

I think it's 21.4 but that is from memory.

Came here to type this, they have some on the RDG site right now.

Agree on the Taurus, it's a Roc x, just a beefy Roc. Sentinel is cool but it's faster and likes to be thrown low and hard and is super sensitive to nose angles in my experience

MD5 and a Gator sound like what you're looking for.

Came here to say this.

Gila and Thor are other solid options, Thor will not be quite as OS though.
