[Mids] RDG Croc: Stable Mid-Range

[Moose33]

He was saying with the bomber releases have only been in the rubber putter so far.

I was saying they have a new plastic blend they refer to as " Warbird Edition". The only mold they are currently using this plastic in (from what I can tell) is the Rubber Putter. Rubber Putter is the name of the disc, Warbird is the plastic name.

Knew what you were talking about, just didn't say it well.

First case stamping today!

Some old school marbled plastic & some matte from most recent run.

Slowing building funds for the Fossil run.

They've run new batches of Rubber Putter, #2 Driver, #2 Flyer and maybe a few more. In the drivers they're making it more like an Evo/Pro line type.

Not urethane, but heavy on propylene which has more durability than a baseline but not to a urethane level.

Happy to do my part to get some old school molds into new players hands.

Lightning discs are so much better than I could have imagined. I thought they were all flippy, Newb discs.

So wrong.

I have played very competitive golf using just these old discs. I love it!

yeah i wish i still had some of my old discs,i threw a lot of them back in the 90s when i started

I love it. Very nice kind of subtle homage/show of respect. Nicely done jcass.

As for the mold itself...I have a brand new seriously wooded Biscoe course that this mold needs to be thrown on. Looking forward to these for sure.

Is this one of the Lightning molds that floats?
that would be awesome if it did... but based on the geometry I'm assuming it does not.

Pretty sure the 170g and below float on this mold.

I have piles of Rocs in the garage that are sweating bullets right now...

Can't to try it out. It will be interesting to see how this disc beats in and how it glides

You'll dig it.

I love Rocs
I now love Crocs

Theyre stable, controllable and they power down nicely like a Roc. You can coax some nice fade out of then when thrown on approaches which I love doing with my Rocs

Does this plastic take dye well?

 

[93EXCivic]

Any glows in this run?

25 glows in the run.

Seeing the swirl, I'm guessing this is Lightning Standard, so I'm betting it won't take dye well. Also, I know Jamie likes cycleable plastic, so I'll stick with the baseline guess.

Correct. These are "Prehistoric" plastic, aka Lightnings standard to start.

These won't take dye well.

Hope there are some glows with green stamps.... that would look cool.
