Your "Water Disc"....

[cbeckett22]

I haven't had to throw over water too often, but when I do, I usually throw something DX.. It's cheap to replace, and has more glide.

Something Innova

Haha!:thmbup:Lol...

 

[mashnut]

I'd rather pick a disc I'm more comfortable with, it gives me more confidence in the shot than having a water disc. I've thrown plenty of plastic in water hazards, but it's just plastic, and that usually means I get to buy new discs...

 

[solomon.trenton]

if im next to water i will toss my normal discs, im im shooting across i have a lat 64 mirus that i toss

 

[mabraddock]

there is no water...

and the water at riverside in GR is nasty goose $#** water.... don't throw it in there...

 

[robbrews]

i have a bunch of discs i dont use. i just grab one from the pile. right now it's an avenger ss

I was using a Roc until it went into a pond in TN. The Impact I got from Brotherdave is in the water at Buckhorn now. I like the idea of going with your normal discs in cheaper plastic. I might have to burn through a few more before I go that route though. I still have various beaters laying around.

 

[DiscJunkie]

I have a #1 Slice floater that I use as a water disc. I've thrown it enough that I can throw it with some confidence. I can make it hyzer or anhyzer or go straight.
It's what I used when I first started out and I still use it.

 

[garublador]

If there's a chance of losing a disc I usually try to throw a newer version of whatever I'd throw. I throw mostly lower end plastic anyway so the newer ones are the easiest to replace. If it's a really long shot and I want to try to make it over for fun I usually carry some sort of distance driver I'm trying out but don't like so I'll throw that.

 

[KNole]

Whatever works best for the hole, or i'll just play around it. If there is a huge chance I will lose a disc, i'll probably skip the hole.

WEAK:thmbdown:

 

[cjskier]

Which ever disc in my bag that is best for the shot. I have not thrown one in water for years now. Off cliffs into the abyss is another story.

 

[beeftrout]

I use champion beasts and have zero fear of water, I'll just go in and grab it anyway. I have over 80 discs I pulled from the water at riverside park. I used to throw dx like a wraith or destroyer but I decided to just throw a disc I can just throw to the basket without a bunch of hyser flip, new dx is awesome but I really would rather use those in the open.

Eric? Wheres the hooch! You got a pinkish/red 168g ESP Nuke? Threw it in on 13 about 3 weeks ago.


This guy does not lie when he says he has no fear of water. Disgusting swamp water. Or goose s**t. Or ecoli. Or salmonella.

 

[Labelkills]

i throw whatever i would want to throw if there wasnt any water. if i use something other than what i should normally im just more ikely to eff it up and get wet.

 

[weeman]

Depends on the situation for me. If its a high risk shot for a roll away into the water or something of the nature, I'll use a back up of the same disc of what I normally throw that way if I lose it there's still nothing missing from my bag. The trick for me is being confident that I can execute my shot and not have to worry about going into the drink. Any other way of going at it leaves that doubt about losing a disc.

 

[Fender088]

I brought a new DX Beast with me to Flyboy the first time I played the course with hole 3 in mind. Truth is I completely forgot that I had it and ended up throwing my Surge. I didn't lose it that day, but I did end up losing it on the same hole another day. I say throw what you got, unless it's one of those beat discs that you simply cannot replace. You'll probably have a better chance at executing your shot if you're using a disc that you're comfortable with.

 

[wolito]

Nope. I just throw my normal discs as I know what they will do. Usually I will play a water shot pretty safe anyway such as a big hyzer that will land on land.

 

[McLeod]

Unless the other side of the water is over 400ft away I just throw whichever disc gets me closest to the basket. If you throw bad plastic you risk going in the water more than if you throw something reliable.

 

[SomeChump]

You can throw almost anything over a big chunk of water since there usually aren't trees anywhere near. If it is tighter, the water probably isn't as big so you have a good chance of getting the disc back.

I use my regular discs and hope for the best.

 

[leppard]

I carry 3-4 discs when playing a water course. Something that turns left, one for straight shots and something that goes right. And maybe a mid. All are discs that I don't care if I lose.

 

[Midnightbiker]

I have a beat up orange DX Wraith that I use. For putting around water, I do use a Hydra. Makes a pretty good putter.
