WOW! Those discs, as well as the other two in your other thread, are in incredible shape. They actually look new. I'm sorry I can't provide any info on these. Perhaps Three Putt can offer something on these. He's very knowledgeable in the ways of the plastic disc.
That's old DGA plastic. Perhaps they can help you ID them. check out their website: www.discgolfassoc.com

LOL! I didn't mean to make that sound as if they were new discs that just came out. They just look like they haven't seen any action, thus new condition.

They are new and in great shape. They have some minor storage ware but nothing major. I did some research on them and can find when they were approved by the PDGA, but the soft approach was not listed anywhere I could find. It is stamped PDGA approved. Thanks in advance for any help I can get.
I came across some old discs and I'm looking for some history or just some info on them. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.
I actually owned the "putter" disc, I purchased it in 1984 or 1985. It was probably my first disc designed for disc golf. I played with it up till about 1995, when I lost it at Seneca DGC. I have been trying to find information about it for a while now.
I would love to know if anyone else out there has one for sale or trade.

Does the "Driver" have a beveled edge? I think I've seen a Streamliner and as I remember it did have a beveled edge. Obviously the Putter does not. I think the Putter is essentially a Kitty Hawk with the rings of Headrick added.
Cool old stuff.

The driver does not have a beveled edge. The streamliner does. Does the putter resemble a Gumbputt? Have you ever heard of the Soft Approach? It is stamped with PDGA approved, but I cannot find the date it was approved. I can find the rest of them but not that one. Thanks.
