    noob needs a driver

    I throw RHBH always. I run up on the tee and fairway drives. lots of distance tutorials say that you do not need a lot of snap in the wrist to get good distance on a drive. maybe this only applies to some people but I thought it was good advice. maybe its not. I played with frisbees for years...

    noob needs a driver

    I just checked, my XL is speed 7 and the valkyrie is speed 9. maybe I should just get the valkyrie since it is faster than the XL. great advice.

    noob needs a driver

    gazelle is speed 6 so not sure if your serious. the diamond is doing great for something like a gazelle. what should I get in speed 10 or 11? my fastest disc is a XL so I think I need to buy something fast a long tee right?

    noob needs a driver

    I don't get a lot of distance and I have a lot of flick in my wrist that I need to un-train. my only driver right now is a discraft XL (speed 9). I don't get good results with neutral and overstable discs so my whole bag is neutral and understable discs. I'm looking to add a mamba or a lat64...

    [MVP] MVP Disc Sports (Official Thread)

    Im pretty new to the sport so my opinion is not worth much but I wanted to say that I <3 MVP. I have and axis and a soft anode. I noticed that inside of the rim is angled slightly and I think I like it. I hit a tree pretty hard with the axis in proton plastic and it had absolutely no damage! the...

    what to add next?

    so here is what I have now. I will report back after I throw all my new discs. I'm really hoping the lower weight and 0 stable discs help my game. XL D 165g Buzzz SS 172g Axis 171g Soft Anode 170g rattler 167g I traded away my buzzz 176g :(

    what to add next?

    I want to get another midrange driver. the buzzz 176 esp is just a little bit too overstable and heavy for me. should I try a buzzz SS or MVP Axis? the Axis is only available in 179g+ and I'm trying to go with 171g or less till I can get my strength and speed up. or should I just buy the max...

    Elbow Problems... HELP?

    nice tip! I looked into it and I think I have a very minor case of golfers elbow. it is on the medial side. I can confirm this by touching the tendon to find the pain. I got the injury in exactly the way you described. holding a tight four finger grip on the disc. additional contributing factors...

    Balance Exercises

    do yoga. anyone that thinks it is beneath them should try 5 minutes of advanced yoga to get a perspective of what you lack. inner ear seems like something that you can't control but I disagree. if your trying to prevent infections, aging and brain damage, there are definitely ways to address...

    what to add next?

    the XL in D is rated 0 compared to the other plastic that is rated 0.5 stable. but I think your saying that the XL D will break in so quick that it is actually more overstable than the 0.5 XL? as for a second putter, the challenger looks like the overstable brother to the rattler. what I don't...

    what to add next?

    so I threw the rattler and the buzzz today. the rattler is the perfect approach putter. it flies straight and stalls into an elevator every time. I should have got max weight on the putter and less weight on the buzzz. the buzzz is turning over more than I would like but I can get a good S if I...

    what to add next?

    I finally purchased a couple discs so I don't need to borrow or play with beat up crap I find in the bushes. I am 6'2" and I have been playing with big frisbees (not disc golf) for a while so max weight does not scare me. so far I purchased a Buzzz ESP @ 176g and a Rattler @ 167g I plan to add...
