My weight for discs runs about the same as what Sheep said. Light weight drivers, more weight for mids, and heavier still for putters. Light weight putters are just too floaty for putting.
Sheep, it seems to me that the partner you play with does things you see often, but then maybe you generalize and think almost everyone throwing high speed stuff does the same things? I know for me, I love my Crave. I don’t need it a ton, but I have good control with it at various distances...
Depends on many factors, true. Some discs are just weirdly different from their flight numbers than they should be. But, I use a decent amount of light weight drivers, especially 150g Terns and Katanas, and 5 grams makes a difference for me. At 155g, most of them start to be much more stable...
I love my Crave - a 6.5 speed. But, I also like my 150-155g Tern and Katana, that get me more distance more easily. I can get more distance with my Crave than I used to, but even if I yeet the hell out of it, it still won’t reach my Tern or Katana, both of which I throw with reasonable...
Pixel rocks. Took over my main putter duties, and has not looked back. Great for short approach shots, too. The more I use it, the more I like it! It has me feeling like I should never miss at 20’ or less, and if I do, it was me, not the disc. Also, mild to medium winds actually bothering...
I also like the F2 prices, but I have a Crave, and it is quickly becoming my favorite and most reliable disc. Worth every penny! I have a bunch of Innova F2 (and other) 5-9 speed discs, but I easily trust my Crave more than anything else, and I recently got a Hex that is now in the bag as my...
I think it is personal. I love my Crave and Hex. They feel good in my hand, go mostly where I want them to, and get better distance now than I ever used to think I could get with a 6.5 speed and a 5 speed. I have a 7 speed River in my bag, and it goes very straight, but for some reason I find...
I concur. Do not like the IT at all. Don’t like the feel or the flight. I think mine is a DX, not G*, but super under stable, and I can’t get predictable flights from it. I love my Axiom Crave for a 6/5, though obviously not nearly as under stable. Also, I threw a buddy's Hex the other day...
Everything I have studied says the order is hips/shoulder/elbow/hand. To me, your hips, shoulders, and arm all seem to fire simultaneously, but I am behind you in skill level. I know, done correctly, the timing between firing is fractions of a second, so likely I just can’t see it. If it were...
Agree Champ Sidewinder can be OS - not even close to its US numbers. I had one - traded it in. Me, my son, and a friend that throws faster than us all tried it - total meat hook. Hard left every time. I kept trying it every time I got throwing a bit faster/better - it never improved. It...
What distance are you throwing? Probably more than my 250-290’, but for me, and I don’t do much hyzer because I totally lack consistency with it, but I found a beat in (used) light weight King Air flips up and bombs pretty far pretty easily. Weird that the numbers make it look very over...
If I want the freebie in a specific weight, I go check the weights they show for that particular F2, and assume what they show is what is available if I request a specific weight. Not 100%, but every time I did it so far, I got my weight (if it showed in inventory). Also, recently requested...
My sons and I used to hike trails at Loyce Harpe Park. My older son moved away in the Navy, but my younger son and I stumbled across Hidden Oaks, I said do you want to try “frisbee golf”, he said sure, so I bought two regular frisbees. First time we played, we figured out they weren’t the...
My plan all along was to find a favorite putter, then get ten of it. But, settling on a favorite has been much harder than I expected. I got up to 6 Judges when I found a Soft Magnet I liked much better. Got 2 of them, then 3 Pures. Next was about 7 Fierces. Currently, I am wavering between...
I am no expert - 1 year playing this month, and I share your pain. I actually just started working on this, and I think I keep my grip (get it to rip out) about 10% of the time. Ugh. But, if you are up to 50%, you are well on your way. I think if you just keep focusing on it, and seeing the...
FYI, I have been playing one year this month, and normal max distance is 250’, a rare one to 275’, and very rare maybe 290’ (and likely somewhat right of my target). With two recent lessons with a local coach, I am working on many changes, and hopefully getting them cemented will get me more...
