Thrown photons yet?

I really do prefer to have varying plastics for my drivers. So no.

Photon and Wave are the ones I really want to try, but I fear they will demote my Inertia and Tesla to irrelevance. If it ain't broke, don't fix it?
I hear that. there are about 4 unique flights from the 2 plastics currently. I do look forward to trying a plasma and proton. Just a matter of time id assume. Lets throw soon you can toss the 2 i have left. Need to get some more fissions and different weight neutrons. Havent thrown 150s yet just 160s and 170s + all weight fissions.
Photon probably will.
Wave definitely wont. Inertias are going back in my bag after lots of insanity love and messing with the impulse virus wave plasma tesla etc. Virus is sticking around and inertia making comeback.

I really don't like screwing with weights like you guys do either. 
no car right now though. :/

There was a 168 plasma tangent in the racks at The Nati last night Aim, so they are out there.

Is the Wave really that much less stable than the Inertia? Hmm, might have to consider it for turnover driver.

I used to be more that way but molds like the volt and tesla in 160s/150s really give some unique lines while keeping same feel and familiar flight. I never thought id like a 166g distance driver so much but that photon is $! I do prefer the plastic difference vs weight like we see with plasma and fission molds just a problem with only max wt throwers re:fission.

166 is the lowest i'm willing to go for any driver. *shrug* but i have a hard time believing it would give me two completely different flights. especially since i don't like throwing max weight drivers to begin with. i try to stick sub 170.
Pretty noticeable from 166 to 174g. Specially once botb were worked a little. Just lost the heavy and putting a 172 in the bag. Photons at 130g 40g were odd. I liked the 164g fission though later fade more turn and glide.

My Waves are at 153g and 173g... yes, that's a big weight spread, but the flights are almost totally different. The 153g is so flippy understable that I feel NO need to try an Orbital. The 173g is stable enough that I don't carry the Photon for headwinds anymore; I just throw the 173g Wave.
If I lose the 153g Wave, I'll search for a 163-165g Wave to replace it.
I have a 141g Photon and it can surprisingly fight the wind. It's effortless distance and when accuracy isn't a must the photon looks to be my go-to.
On another note, I took out the Crave and used the Volt to cover every shot I normally do with ease.

Here is quick video of me throwing a vector and motion on some anhyzer lines. These are the most overstable discs in my bag so obviously not a typical shot but wanted to demonstrate its not really about stability but rather how you throw in order to get the flight desired.

Another nice video. This is good stuff!
It's really easy to play a round with 3 discs (driver, mid, putter) and do fine.

Mine are too much for you guys sorry. Im thinking a disc golf in your whitey tighties stamp.
