If you had to pick one overstable mid for utility shots what would it be? I'm trying to pick for myself so why not see which people like the most.

Best overstable mid

Oh boy, you're about to get a hundred different answers. All equally unhelpful.
It would be really helpful to give a better idea of what kinds of shots you're looking to use it for and what mids you're currently throwing.

I never threw my Drone after trying the Zone.

I carry both a Drone and a Zone. Drone has great glide; it's goes pretty darn far for something that overstable and lands flat. Drone is a comfortable depth for flicks too. Zone is very useful for skips and short get out of trouble shots.
Same here, the Zone essentially bumped the Drone out of my bag.
You'll find the Wasp and Hornet are also pretty similar, you probably don't need both.

I really like my S and Q Sentinels.

I throw roc3s and meteors, looking for something for insane fade for the times needed, also an occasional overhand shot
Sounds like Drone is what you're looking for.

FAF 12x Firebird. It's essentially a midrange distance utility driver, I mean it's very very tough to get it out to 300'. INSANE fade and best for overhand/trick shots.
True mid go Drone.

Prerubing is like battling the alien parasite from The Thing. Try and try as you might, threads just keep replicating themselves.
It's starting to feel like the zombie apocalypse in forums.

Tell me about it.
OP, I would recommend a Whippet. Look for a CFR or Star Whippet-X.
If you don't want to look outside of Innova, I would say a Discraft Z Xtreme or a Latitude Opto Trident with a real high parting line.

I agree with the Trident. It says driver on it, but don't you believe it.
Something tells me there might be a Star Whippet-X for sale in the MP. Just a hunch...

The general DGCR groupthink opinion is that OS mids are unnecessary. The hive mind here thinks that the shots you would use an OS mid for can be covered by powering down your OS driver. But screw those guys. I like a Gator or a Drone every now and then.

I'd guess the Drone might be the best bet for you. The Zone doesn't get any where near the distance of your other 2 mids.

I like a gator for a mid utility, but if you're looking for a beefy mid all the big manufacturers make one that'll do just fine.
Like any other "suggest a disc" thread there really is no wrong answer, assuming the suggested disc is from the right category.

I was a long time Drone thrower until I got a Zone. True, it doesn't go as far, but I find it far more useful.
