What do you like/dislike about your current bag?: I feel like my fairways and putters are perfect. But my distance driver setup doesn't make any sense, and it shows on longer courses. I also feel like something is missing from my midrange line up.
Immediate and long-term goals: More consistency releasing straight and on long range shots.


Bag:
Drivers (weight/plastic/model/(condition)/use):
169 Star Destroyer: Bombs like nothing else, but hard to control

167 Star Wraith: 2 years old. Slightly shorter than the Destroyer, but better on low lines and easy to control; like a longer eagle

170 GL Flow: Long and glidey, but a bit finicky

167 Champ Monarch: Tunnel shots and shorter OH shots

164 GL Saint: Fell in love with the glide longer than the eagle, but not often used

166 Champ Eagle: Overstable and controllable, sidearms and Flex shots

??? Champ Eagle: Beat in, very high speed stable with little fade

170 Star Eagle: Longer than the DX eagles with good control

175 DX Eagle: When I'm willing to sacrifice some distance for control

167 DX Eagle: Very straight and easy to control, good for tight shots

??? DX Eagle: Beat. Turns over slightly and anhyzers well

174 Tournament Underworld: Just got this. Fell in love, filled the hole in my fairway line up.

170 Opto Trident: Utility disc

Mids:
177 Z Hornet: Headwind mid

175 Z Buzzz: New, just a touch of overstability

176 Z Buzzz: 2 years old and PERFECT

174 GL Fuse: Glidey turnover/tailwind mid


Putters:
171 Sinus AP: Love it for controlled shots where keeping it short is a priority

168 Soft Wizard: Putts, upshots, drives

169 Soft Magic: Annys, putter shots where I don't want the fade of the wizard
