I saw this thread on DGR once I think. List all the holes on your home course, and other courses if you want, and write down what you tee off with in normal conditions. Cool way to see which discs you utilize the most, and over time you might notice it changing to different molds which is interesting to watch.

the U of U has a ton of rediculous uphill shots. it also has a bunch of really hard dogleg rights so i throw a lot more FH shots here.

*It should be noted that I in no way meant for this to happen- just clicked "center" on accident, and realized the list looked vaguely familiar- the bottom pole might have been added to finish up the coincidental list...*
 
I can't really do my home course as I am always trying new things at my home course. I have many differant ways to approach each hole as I am always trying something new. However I can do other courses that I visit as I have a stricter gameplan for those.

At Sylmar we have a number of basket positions on every hole and that can change what I tee off with but here goes.

2 - Shark

4 - TL
5 - Shark short, TL for the 2 middle, SL for the long.
6 - TL
7 - Eagle short, SL for the 3 longer ones
8 - Eagle for left, TL right, SL for 2 long straight
9 - Shark for all but the low right one which is an Eagle
10 - Shark short, TL center, SL Right, Eagle down the hill
11 - Shark for the 3 short ones, Starfire for the Long
12 - SL
13 - Shark
14 - Shark for the short 2, TL for the long 2
15 - Shark for the shorter 2, TL for the longer 2.
16 - TL for short straight, SL for the rest
17 - Eagle for short left, SL for the rest
18 - TL for really short left, Eagle for short, TL for Center, SL for long

Chavez Ridge
1 - Shark
2 - Shark
3 - Eagle (I like the big hyzer route)
4 - Shark
5 - Shark
6 - Shark
7 - Shark short, Eagle sidearm for long
8 - Shark
9 - Shark
10 - Shark
11 - Shark
12 - Shark short, Eagle sidearm for long
13 - Shark

Ok, I will play. Cottonwood Creek, Colorado Springs, CO.

1. Meteor or Leopard
2. TL
3. TL
4. Viking or Meteor
5. Voodoo or Buzzz
6. Buzzz
7. Voodoo or Firebird
8. Leopard
9. Viking or Leopard
10. TL or Viking
11. TL
12. Buzzz
13. TL
14. TL
15. Meteor
16. TL
17. Leopard
18. Leopard

So I am using the TL the most, at about 7 teeshots. Then the Leopard gets the nod for 4-5. Pin placement is variable as well as the distances. This is just my best guess and certainly changes depending on pin location and how I feel that day.
 
I'm not willing to write this out for EVERY HOLE...but I throw off the tee:

150 DX Wraith
z Surge SS
162 Champ Wraith
z Avenger SS
z Stalker
Dragon
esp Wasp
Cryztal BuZzz
Wizard
1st run soft Ion (feels just as firm as a medium Ion to me)


Those are listed in terms of the general distances I'm going for off the tee with each disc, longest to shortest.

Wizard and Ion would jump in place depending on the line.

1. DX Teebird
2. DX Teebird
3. X XL
4. DX Teebird
5. Z Pred
6. GL River
7. DX Teebrid
8. Opto Core
9. GL River
10. X XL
11. DX Teebird
12. Z Pred
13. GL River
14. DX Teebird
15. Z Flick
16. DX Teebird
17. Opto Core
18. Opto Core

Teebird - 7
XL - 2
Pred - 2
River - 3
Core - 3

Interesting. This is likely going to change as I debate on if I need the River. Right now I am thinking the XL and Teebird can swallow those; but if I like the Avenger for those longer drives, I might decide the River is better as my control disc over the Teebird.
