Star Aero

I prefer a beat DX Stingray for turnover rollers or any type of Viper for a cut roller, but I only use rollers to get out of trouble on the course.

Viper, either in CFR or DX its a great disc.

DX Archangel. I had an even weaker arm when I had mine, and it would flip too much with steep hyzer angles. It didn't even roll in a straight line. My beat-up DX Stingray is more predictable than my Archangel was (and it rolls alot better).

Slightly less stable than a Firebird. For me it fights the wind very well, but still isn't too stable in no wind or with a tailwind. Has almost no glide at all, but I can get it to fly quite a bit farther than a TL or Teebird.

I'm in that same boat, and I'll agree that the Sidewinder/Stingray combination is effective for courses requring alot of righty hyzers.

Strong Headwind- Max or CFR Viper Strong Tailwind- Sidewinder or Stingray Strong Crosswind- Anything, depending on what I'm trying to do

Star Big Bead Aviar or Star Aero depending on wind direction. If theres a strong headwind or I need a flex shot that fades, I may use a Star Rhyno or a beat up Viper.

I agree with the previous poster. Very straight flight, with a somewhat strong fade when new, but nothing like a Firebird/Predator. With very little wear, the ones I've had seem to lose alot of their fade and fly like a longer Teebird.

I find that the Viper is the most utilized disc in my bag. I carry 3- a CFR, a newer DX and a beat DX; the beat one is good any day, and the others are valuable when its windy (most days around these parts). I also like the feel of these discs for overhands.

Like this guy, except 175 Pro Rhyno in the circle, and 180 DX Aero outside. I can't get a good grip with champs.

That is alot like me (LHBH), but I cannot throw LHFH at all, and have given up on it. Stingray is how I handle the sharp left-curving fairways.

I'll play the short/easy pads the first time I play a course. After that, I'll typically alternate Long/Short.

175 gram Star Firebird-L, my 5th FL (I lost 1 and 2 in the same year, afraid 3 and 4 will follow suit).

Viper- Either CFR or DX depending on how the wind is blowing and what kind of mood I'm in.
