It's pretty windy out here in Iowa, so I'll pull disc up to an SPD or my domey FB when duty calls.
The caliber of courses also affects this, even when I go to Des Moines and play Ewing, Grandview, Walnut Ridge or Big Creek I have yet to find the need for anything really OS.
I do throw overhead and skip shots with a firebird from time to time, but it tends to be a low frequency. I do see the advantage of being able to throw this kind of variety that only OS discs can achieve.
And that's why I'm only ~900 rated.
But realistically I am intent on focusing on LHBH 100%. The time it would take to learn LHFH would be much more than the time it would take get better at turnovers and annys.
I think it is necessary to have some stupid ovestable discs. I carry an XXX and a Zone and find them very useful for high altitude anhyzers that pan out really hard and get a ton of lateral movement, very useful for getting out and around objects without having to risk going though any branches.
It only took me 3 years to learn forhand and about 2 days to successfully be abel to hyzerflip and turnover consistantly.
And simple answer - Yes
I don't think it's necessary to have BEEF at all levels. Like having a Pig, Gator, Viper/Whippet, Firebird, XCal is probably overkill lol.
Gator and Firebird is usually what I run.

(A little background on my throwing distances first
KC Pro Aviar: 250-275
Roc: 275-320
Teebird: 300-350
PD: 325-375
Wraith: 350+
So my question is: Are truly overstable discs necessary to have a well rounded lineup? I feel like I don't need anything more OS than the discs listed above, I just need to throw them with more hyzer on doglegs or headwind shots. If it makes any difference, I throw 100% LHBH off the tee, and have enough US plastic in the bag to hit left turning shots moderately well enough.
Any else have similar experience, or is it more of a personal preference on throwing a certain disc for a certain shot, or having more versatile discs?
