Nice thread HZB and awesome input again from SW22! I've been struggling with the same issues as you. My main sport was tennis for over 10 years and firing my hips comes naturally with the tennis forehand and backhand. I feel I can build the same momentum with my FH in disc golf but backhand is a...

It will turn on you for sure, depends if it's a bad thing or not. I max around 360' on golf lines and I use the Saint as my main straight driver. I rip it on a slight hyzer and it just goes and doesn't fade much. I'd say if you're used to ripping drivers flat for distance, the Saint isn't for...

Just snatched a pack of 166g pearly white Saint Pros from my local dealer: So they definitely come in lighter weights. I agree on the Stag comparison, they're everything I hoped for the Stag to be :thmbup: I got them to flip however when I intentionally crushed one with my FH into a headwind...

To the OP: Yes, they do lack one. Westside Underworld (7/6/-3/1). Flies like a glidier pro Leopard straight from the shelf. Switch over to the dark side, you know you want it ;)

Used to love Pro Leopards for hyzerflips but the Underworld is even better. Such an awesome disc.

Try a Jokeri. In premium plastic, it's glideless and straight. It also absolutely kills wind. It's a tweener between a putter and a mid. It also has a straight, more forward penetrating fade than the Trident. In Basic plastic it has more glide and the fade can be beaten out in no time still...

I've broken the 400' mark a few times in the field. I always try to be smooth and I feel that I've gained consistency on my drives. On the other hand, it seems that my plant foot still isn't closed enough as it should be. I also noticed that I rush my weight forwards quite early. Perhaps keeping...

This. The Saint is a pretty unique combination of distance, glide, and minimal fade. When facing a headwind or when needing a strong finish, I grab something else.

Have you thrown a PD? How does it compare to the Villain? The rim width is the same. I might try a 170ish GL Villain. I've thrown the Giant a few times but it's too beefy for me and the rim is also too wide for my liking.

Anyone pair their Saints with Destroyers or Villains? I'm in a search for a distance driver when I'm wide in the open facing some headwind. I carry a stable S-PD at the moment, but I feel it overlaps a bit too much with my firebirds. I tested my mates Star Wraiths a bit in the weekend and they...

Yup, that too. Both are great discs.

Few remarks from a player who switched from PDs to Saints last season. Pros: -Far better plastic, Latitude plastic is far superior in durability and feel compared to Innova's. The only plastic I really enjoyed PDs was the old Pro (P-PD). -Better glide -More controllable on low-lines without...

Good stuff. After watching Will's video (especially the parts about shoulder turn and weight transfer) I finally broke the 375' mark yesterday in a tailwind on a nice low line. I also get a pretty loud snapping sound with my drives, which brings me to this whole pull-push thing. I know that the...

I used to throw DX/Pro Leopards as US fairways but now the Underworlds have replaced them. My 167g VIP flies like a champ Leopard or like a beat River. It's really easy to throw straight laser beam hyzerflips with it. On the other hand, my 168g TP Underworld is just like my beat Pro Leopards...
