just a personal observation
i think that most "speed 7 users" ie teebirds, leopards, banshee, etc
will often use innova mids typically 4 speed ie rocs, etc
and often discraft 5 speed mid throwers ie buzzz, hornet, meteor, etc. will jump to a 8 or 9 speed
because the gap is so close between a 5 and a 7
PMcB throws Teebirds.For a sidearm player no, you aren't wasting strokes. However speed 7 discs are essential for one thing for a backhand player and that is precision and accuracy not necessarily for distance. For some their mids are fast enough to replace their speed 7 drivers ( Mcbeth and the roc3). But whether mid or fairway for a backhand player this speed is key for accuracy.

I think that is true for a lot of folks. I'm goofy though, I use speed 5 mids (Nebula, Squall) and speed 7 FWs (Eagles, Banshee, EL). I do use some PDs to bridge the gap b/w my FWs and my max D driver (sword) on days where my form sucks too much to make the Sword worth throwing.

And I'm the opposite, I jump from rocs to PDs since I feel like the PDs power down to cover anything longer than a roc shot for my game.
please see my sig
From speed 7 on down, I carry 2-3 of each speed except putters.
I can go skinny on the long range stuff but speeds 3-7 are my bread and butter.
247ft ace with a Nuke? I guess you get a pass for not needing speed 7
This^^^^^
Fairways are the most versatile for me. I can throw them for distance or precision. I keep Several of each fairway mold in different stabilities in my bag. if I need to take some off a speed 7 disc I can and not get punished as much as taking speed off of a distance driver.
