On the golf lines you mentioned, in a controlled manner, pushing 300 with a star teeb, 300+ with a DX teeb. Terns net me an extra 30-50ft in this manner. I do not threaten 400' at this time.
Speed 9s go 20-30ft farther than teebs.
Cool, then I would look at the Valk/Sidewinder type discs. I would probably start with a Star Sidewinder and Champ Valk, with the caveat that I haven't thrown a fresh off the shelf Champ Valk for some time.
What I'm getting at though is the Sidewinder should give you anywhere from a -1/2 flight to start and break in from there, to a -2/1 flight when fresh depending on the disc. Champ Sidewinders may start off closer to the -1/2 and be surprisingly stable, which is why I would start with star. They go very far, I definitely recommend the Sidewinder. The Valk I would hope to be more in the -1/2 that you can shape smooth hyzers and even tighter flex distance lines with, but again I'd need confirmation on how stable fresh champ or star Valks are now. You could maybe do an Escape for this slot as well.
If you want a turnover distance shot then Gstar Sidewinders can be extremely fun and long too. I'm at altitude but I throw farther, and they can handle my shots fine so I'd think in your expected distance range they should still be great as well. As long as you like Gstar.
Roadrunners are also very fun to throw. Really there can be overlap between Sidewinder/Roadrunner/Valk depending on the plastic and specific disc. Roadrunners do feel a little different because of the convex lower rim.
