[rusch_bag]

1 - 165 Med Wizard - Main putter
1 - 170 Med Wizard - Turnover Wizard
1 - 175 Med Wizard - Stable to Overstable approach, Drives, Super windy day putts

3 - 174ish DX Rocs - different stabilities
1 - 177 KC Pro Roc - overstable midrange

2 -171 Star Tls - One new one beat, main drivers/control drivers,
1 - 175 Champ Teebird - For those somewhat windy days that need something a little more than a TL

1 - 170 Z pred - obvious

2+ - DX Valk - one beat, one or more newer, rollers, annys, big d, etc

169 & 174 - SOLF - 169 is a touch longer and straighter, long hyzers, moderate headwind

No changes from the last time I posted. I have been messing around with a few destroyers in the field lately but they have not made it in the bag yet. Longest I have ever gone without changing my bag and I am loving it. Everything is clicking right now and I am just having a blast playing disc golf lately.

edit - I am really close to putting a few destroyers in the bag as they give me 20-30 feet more than my orions do. Do they overlap with anything else in there? Also, after I really beat one in could I carry a champ, a newer star or pro, and a beat pro or star and have that cover everything my valks and orions are covering or is that not so much of a good idea? Any thoughts on this would be great.

[_.-Dut-._]

Been playing around trying different things, think I have a bag I am going to stick with for awhile.

Drivers:

Champ Wraith: Max Distance

Z Avenger: Moderate Overstable driver

Z Predator: Wind and Sidearm shots

Z XL: Fairway Driver mainly dead straight and anhyzers

Champ Teebird: Fairway driver, anything where I want a little fade at the end. Also great for knife hyzers.

Champ Sidewinder: Rollers, and hard turnover anhyzer shots.

Champ Orc: Overhand shots

Mids:

Z Buzzz/Z Wasp: All midrange shots. Buzzz handles dead straight and anhyzers while the wasp handles wind and any time I want to throw straight and fade at the end a little.

DX Classic Roc: Approaches. Can hold a anhyzer or hyzer line as well as can go dead straight and have no fade at the end. Also use this as my "putter' off the teebox shots.

Putters:

SSS Wizard: Layups, and when I want to take a run at a basket without fear of a roll away.

S Jerry Garcia Wizard: Jump putts, offers a little more stability then my main putter. Also great when I need to throw a hyzer to putt around a tree.

Med Wizard: Main Putter. Beat to crap and great in the circle. Dead straight and very little fade. If you putt more "line drivish then loft" broken in wizardds work great.

 

[tumpsi]

3* Firebirds for overhead shots, spike hyzers, and extreme winds.
3* Teerexes for long hyzers, straight shots, max max D.
3* SOLS for turnovers, hyzerflips, and max D.

4* Rocs for all shots shorter than Teebirds, and longer than putters.
3* Aviars (no-bead glow) for putting & approaches.

[Aaron_D]

(2) 165g S Wizards - putter and backup
171g SS Wizard - super thrashed finesse upshots
175g S Wizard - stable approach and putter driver

177g dx Roc - lost my ultra beat golden puppy, but soon I will have another!
177g kc Roc - ultra straight and very beat but still super straight.
180g kc Roc - newish for straight with a fade

175g SOLF - beat to H E L L for awesome max D, turnover, finesse straight drives
175g MOLF - seasoned, straighter max D low ceiling

171g dx Valkyrie - max D turnover, roller
172g dx Viking - very similar to the valk..a little straighter

167g z Predator - overstable duties

5 molds (valk and viking are basically the same) 12 discs in a revo mini.

We will see how it turns out this weekend. The dx teebirds got booted for orions...the orion just always finds its way back into the bag. A truly beautiful disc. Just about the perfect balance of D and control. The TL and dx teebird are close seconds, but the TL is not as versatile and the dx teebird is much much less forgiving.

Loving them on drives and approaches. Getting used to them on putts. Deeper than the Wiz which I have been using. I used to use KC Aviars for years, so its not that hard gettong used to
