    Destroyer VS wraith and sidearm

    I use the same discs to flick, But I would suggest going with something slightly less stable if you aren't getting over 350. Maybe lower weights in the same discs would help. I throw my 169 destroyer much more often than my wraith, and I find that it gets much better flight. I honestly...

    More Wrist Stuff

    Went out and threw in a football field for a few hours yesterday, really worked on keeping my wrist relaxed and forcing it open a little earlier than normal. My timing is still surely off, I can't feel the hit as much when I do that but I hear more snap. This made me realize that usually...

    City with the most active disc golfers?

    I think per capita, Moorhead MN and Fargo ND have to be near to top. They're twin cities with a population of about 180,000 out in the middle of nowhere. We have at least 4 courses in close proximity, and people are talking about getting a champion course up soon (maybe this year, hopefully...

    sanding discs

    I use an electric fingernail buffer for fixing all my discs, feel a little gay at times when I'm doing it but the results are worth it. 7 different heads for the buffer, from a cloth felty thing too a rough metal file type dealie. On the sanding note, I sanded the bottom of one of my star...

    More Wrist Stuff

    That's a great tip, can't wait to try it. Its funny, recently I've been working on all wrist and elbow stuff....doing basically the opposite of this. I know you had a bomb before this, how much more D has this given you? I'm a little confused tho, are you now reaching back with more of a...

    Ever seen the disc golf push carts?

    There is a guy in our league that has an electric pull cart, with a radio in it! I see these things all the time lately, seems like a growing trend. The ones I've seen hold about 20 discs and usually have a cooler that can hold at least 8-12 beers. Bags can really take a toll on your...

    Lefty Disc

    I've never thrown a 150 class disc, but are they really that much less stable? those are some big arm discs to be throwing with your off hand. I used a really really really beat xclone to learn my RHBH earlier this year, moved to a star sidewinder after that. The sidewinder gets great...

    Ace's - who, what, where when & how?

    buddy owes me a disc, need advice

    thx for the help guys, got an ace with my new SOLF yesterday on a hole just over 300ft (actual distance is about 298, but was throwing from an alternate 10 yards back and off to the side). It flew perfectly, turned almost all the way to the hole, then flexed and just dropped into the chains...

    Best basket

    I voted mach III, but have only played on mach III and mach V. It could be due to flooding or something else, but the mach V's seem much shorter than the mach III's. Too short for my liking. edit-did a little research, the mach V's are only 3 inches shorter. my misconception likely due to...

    what to buy? Forehand disk

    I have a few discs I use forehand- I like to throw a 175 wraith for anny's, as it tends to flatten better than my 169 destroyer. The destroyer likes to ride the anny too long, but it depends on the shot. Sometimes I'll use the dessy for anny's 300ft or less. Usually need a little flatter...

    buddy owes me a disc, need advice

    haha...I'm an idiot...I did think it was stability. edit-Also realized the 1.1 on my solf means 1st mold 1st run. Saw a thread comparing the 1.1 solf with the 1.2, wondering if I'm going to have to head back out in a week to buy a 1.2. Any thoughts?
