Think I will give it a month to keep hearing your thoughts and finally pull the trigger on a few. I know I want the destroyer and either the boss/wraith/or teedevil. The hardest part for me is trying to figure out if I want it in the 150's or all the way down to the 130's. I throw around and at times past 400 but don't know if I will be flipping those discs if they are too light. Any help from someone who REALISTICALLY throws 400 would be MUCH appreciated.
The biggest adjustment is with your grip. If you are used to throwing 400 feet with 170-175g discs, 150s are surprisingly light and your grip may try to overcompensate thinking it is 175. I have had a few misfires because of this, especially when I try to generate the power that gets me to 400. However, the Blizzard's saving grace is that it is easier for me to get to that 400, meaning I need less overall power. It is when I try to power completely up, expecting results more than 400 that gets me in trouble.
Right now, for me, it is the same distance, just easier to get.
When thrown cleanly, or at least cleanly enough, the Boss's and Destroyer's stability is very close to their heavier counterparts. The only thing I have noticed is that they have a greater tendency to shoot up a little higher from the point of release. For example, instead of being 10 feet of the ground, from the point of release they go to 13 feet. Not a huge difference, but noticeable.
