[Discraft] Comet love?

[Three Putt]

Plus there is the dirty little secret that the original picture didn't have all my Comets in it, and the new picture doesn't have all the new Comets in it. :\ The ESP Comet that I was complaining about yesterday isn't in either of these pictures.

 

[Broken Shoulder]

The picture was just recent additions; all of theses Comets are still around:

One of those pink Z's is in the middle on the right. My daughter stole the other one. :| The last time I saw it, it was in her boyfriends bag.

Smart boyfriend, taking the rainbow stamp. :thmbup:

 

[Stetz]

Three Putt, would you ever let go of one of those Elite Xs at the top?

 

[SpikeHyzer]

Been off the site for a bit and decided to hop on today to see what's happening. I see we're talking comets. Here's my family picture...minus the two in my bag at the moment.

Spikehyzer is a lost cause lol

Three Putt made me feel compelled to share my own addiction, as I now feel that this is a safe space:

Hello, my name is Stetz, and I have a Comet problem. At one point, when I stopped playing around 2012, I had around 20 - I gave away, and am kicking myself in the ass for it, several PFN Z's, and a few Elite-X's. I'll get back to that number soon though!

Worst way to display 7 discs I've ever seen

Legit shot, just line them up better next time

How sad is it that I of all people have the fewest Comets? I told a friend to hold onto my storage discs while I moved across the country, and all I had left when I moved back was my play bag. These 6 are all I have left...

On a side note - I'd forgotten about those old, super stiff yellow Z Comets! Man those things fly like trash if I wanted to throw something that flew like that, I'd throw a Buzzz!

They flew so much better than the Z Cyclones that I barely noticed. :|

Y'all making me want to grab some Comets.

To be fair (to be faaaaaaair), very few things fly worse than a Z Cyclone...

I truly am...can't help but buy a comet if it catches the eye. I've had the same two comets in the bag for probably 3 years. About the only time I rotate one out is when I hit an ace with it. Unfortunately, most of my aces are with putters.

At least now I know what to get you for your super soft birthday.

Gotta compliment it with the other total stinkers like the Z Putt'r, and the Z Hawk. Get some of that zero glide, garbage line NYYYYYUT

I have two ace, both with ESP Comets. Second was like 2 weeks ago.

 

[Stetz]

Saw this bubblegum pink wonder bread stamp ESP and had to grab it. Not many people around me throw Comets, so when they restock at my local shop I usually have first picks on'em.

 

[VictorB]

I got my Icons earlier this week, and haven't been able to get out at all and throw. I got a creamsicle (orange and white) and a cotton candy (blue/blurple and pink) swirlies, couldn't have asked for a better set of colors since ordering was sight unseen

 

[Skamanda]

Just got done throwing a putters/Comets round. Really love getting back used to throwing them. I've been clicking with them more and more since I got back to playing, and it's a bit hilarious the lines they open up at my home course. I only threw maybe three or four shots all round that I would've gotten a substantially better lie on with a driver.

 

[Skamanda]

Anyone else throw a Comet to shape a line where you go forward, then turn left and cruise straight a good distance, before approaching the basket? It wasn't a shot I used to really think about the Comet for, because I had this super beat in 150g ESP Flick that I used for it, but I threw a round last weekend with a couple holes like that, and was really pleased with the results. A steep flip, a straight cruise, and a gentle fade to the pin...

I throw tons of hyzers with Comets, is that what you're talking about? Or are you lefty and talking about a throw with late turn?

Well there's the normal start-to-finish hyzer, and the hyzer-flip straight shot, I'm talking more something that goes straight, flips to a hyzer angle (flying at a dogleg left to the tee-pad), and fades to another, even more left angle. Throw at 0 degrees (relative direction to the tee-pad), flip to 45 degrees left carry, fade to 90 degrees left carry kinda thing, but varying on the angles.

Some of us might need a drawing to explain that shot.

Does 0 degrees mean a flat release? I'm having trouble relating release angles to "tee pad direction".
