Tkaiser: how powerful of a thrower are you? I've got my G Star Teebird 3 out to 390...once. on golf lines It's more like 325-350. Just wondering if I will see any turn.
Brinster Teebirds are not plus mold. And if the Champ T3s are like the G Stars, then they aren't plus molded either.
So just curious factory shop showed blue disc red stamp, mine came with blue stamp. Is that common stamp color or do I have rare one? Just curious doesn't matter too much I'm throwing it
They may not be +mold (would Innova really tell us?) but they have that thick feeling different than your standard TB. I'm guessing these do as well. The champ Roc3's have that same thicker feeling compared to the McPro Roc3's.
Innova might not tell us whether they are plus molds, but anyone could look at them or hold them and tell; it's fairly obvious. Plus molds have more of a slanted angle on the inside of the wing rather than right angles. Brinsters definitely aren't plus molds, nor are any of the champ Roc3's I've seen or heard of.
I think you must just be talking about how champion or JL plastic feels to you. They are certainly not actually thicker in JL than in other types of plastic, but different types of plastic do feel different in the hand, so I think that must be what you are talking about.
There is a pretty clear difference between these two discs, one is McPro one is JL.
I saw the same difference in the bristers which makes me curious what these JL T3s look like compared to GS.
Yes the difference there is just higher PLH (parting line height) in the JL. I think you'd find if you measured with calipers that the actual rim width is the same, and the JL is certainly not a plus mold. I think the higher PLH is often what makes champion discs more stable than the equivalent star or pro, even right out of the box. It's probably just how the different plastics set during the cooling process that does that.
PLH can vary a lot even within the same type of plastic too. You get some some runs of star destroyers for example with very high PLH and others with relatively normal PLH. I have even seen 2 discs from the same run in the same plastic where one had significantly higher PLH than the other. I really don't know why that happens exactly, but I know for sure it has nothing to do with a plus mold.
