Favorite Forehand Disc

[dreadlock86]

z predator, champion starfire for a nice "s" curve or an xcal for a big fade.

been wanting to try a flick.

my FH is still pretty poor. needs a lot of work. i seem to have a problem keeping the disc up, it just drops right into the ground after about 100'. i can't decide if i should do a technique overhaul or try a 150 flick or both.

Teebirds and Orcs

169 ESP Force, 175 Star Wraith.

 

[BrotherDave]

Star Starfire, Star FL.

I use a Champ Monster as my main forehand driver. I've been using this disc for FH drives for a couple of years now.

I am now thinking that I probably have developed a lot of OAT on my FH, and might benefit from throwing something a little less overstable.

Starfire maybe?

Star Destroyer

Star TeeRex, Champ Banshee, and DX Gator.

I also dig the Spirit, and it doesn't seem to flare as much as other super stable discs. In fact in my experience it hardly flares at all. I think it has to do with the shape of the rim- more curved profile than other super stable discs.

Completely agree! If you guys haven't tried the spirit, you definitely should! I don't think there is a better disc on the market for forehand!

no Max love?
those things are $$$ for sidearm

 

[bikinjack]

Star X Cal for me. Second would be Z Flick.

 

[flingingdiscs]

Champion Starfire

 

[jdggna]

Elite Z Predator for general use, but I love the XCal for wide open bombs.
I tried the ESP Venom today and thought it was pretty sweet though. Once I get it down I feel like it will give me some long straight distance before falling off at the end.

For whatever reason, I almost always hyzer flip when I throw forehand so I go with the Viking or Valkyrie.

Vote for other - Champion GROOVE. Great distance and getting more accurate.

Seeing all you guys voting for the destroyer, I should try the Star Destroyer I just bought for forehand throws.

Destroyers are sweet because the different plastics and stages of wear cover forehand drives for long turnover, hyzers, and skips

The only two discs I throw with a forearm is a classic roc (little right-to-left flick anhyzer shots) and a star wraith. I used to throw forearm quite a bit but I have moved away from it in the past year because my backhand has really come along.

 

[ejvogie]

I used to use my Star Wraith and Star Destroyer for forearm shots, but I either developed more snap, or they got too beat in flippy, or both. Currently I use a Star XCaliber (hyzer), a Z Flick (shorter hyzer), and a Star Boss (flex D).

 

[grass_stain]

orc is my go to disc. but have been enjoying my avenger, pulse, force, and drone. sometimes i throw my rhyno fh too.

 

[`cjc]

Star Boss, Xcaliber, Force, Flick, Max, and FL depending on conditions, etc.

 

[runnaman]

Starfire for distance, Firebird for more hook, Whippet for approach.
