The term "hyzers out"

[MrDarkHorse]

Hyzer is a release angle, but people, including pros, frequently refer to the end of a disc's flight as "hyzering out"

Does this bother you?

Some people seem to pop a vein over this, but we all know what is meant.

 

[Highway Bill]

It's just a fade but hyzer's wiser

 

[Halcón]

It's all good. The term is well understood.

 

[Hampstead]

Is a hyzer more stable or overstable?

 

[Improbably]

It bothers me a little, but it's no worse than the average level of imprecision in the diction of most.

 

[Allurex]

People get upset over things like this? Goodness.

 

[Shapers]

The term hyzer is used to describe the angle of the disc. Therefore "hyzering out" is a valid term as the disc is on a hyzer angle at the end of the flight.

Yup. When it fades, it's also taking a hyzer angle, so it seems appropriate.

Still, I voted don't care. Call it what you want.

Call it what you want as long as people know what you are talking about.

'stable vs. neutral' seems to be the classic in this category.

The point of communication is that the message is intrepeted by the receipient in the way the sender intended.

The following paragraph would be considered effective communication even though the message is terrible.

I cnduo't bvleiee taht I culod aulaclty uesdtannrd waht I was rdnaieg. Unisg the icndeblire pweor of the hmuan mnid, aocdcrnig to rseecrah at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mttaer in waht oderr the lterets in a wrod are, the olny irpoamtnt tihng is taht the frsit and lsat ltteer be in the rhgit pclae.

I'd prefer it if the disc hyzered in...

 

[SteezeOG]

I usually say "faded out" but I've used the term hyzer out before too. Everyone knows what the message is so I don't see it as a big deal. Much like saying more stable or overstable. Sure one is more accurate than the other but I don't see how it could actually get someone upset. It's like when I work on a gun for someone and they call a magazine a clip. I'm not going to correct them, I've used both terms. I just know one is correct and one is technically not. I still know which part they are talking about. The poll question should be "Has DGCR run out of original topics or do we need another pet peeves thread?"

 

[Flip Hyzerman]

"Hook up!!!!" seems to be more prevalent around here. Call it what you want, just get off the teepad and let me throw.

 

[Hampstead]

I play with a guy who will yell "Get stable!" when he wants a disc to fight back and fade hard.

 

[FriedInTheDesert]

Hyzer is a release angle...

Is this correct? I thought hyzer is an angle. It can be at the release and/or at the end.

 

[SteezeOG]

Your version is more correct. It's an angle but not just a release angle. :hfive:

 

[3j0hn]

I agree hyzer is the angle whenever, not just at release. Of course, I have an acute feeling that all this talk of angles is just obtuse. Right?

 

[BigGAC1]

The world would be a better place without it.
