I just lost my Wraith, and I am going to buy a new one, but I'm thinking of switching it up a bit. I'd like some input from people who know what they're talking about. So here's the deal:
I usually throw 168-169 drivers in star plastic. The wraiths (for me) tend to fly stable brand new, and beautifully straight when slightly beat in. Then they get pretty flippy and VERY unreliable in a headwind.
What would you say of picking up a champ wraith in a lighter weight? I'm thinking 163-165. I usually hate champ plastic for anything beefier than a TL, because it is so darn overstable. Then again I have never thrown anything in such light weights, so I'm hoping it wouldn't fly quite so stable as I would expect from a heavier wraith, and maybe I could eek a bit more distance out of it (for reference, I throw ~360' consistently, max out at 400' on a perfect drive, flat no wind).
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
PS please don't tell me to throw destroyers. I hate those things.
