[Discraft] Comet love?

[BirdmanCR]

Anybody? It has the old Discraft bar stamp 10/10 and 172 grams.

Ive seen some sell for $40

This is a disc that is a vestige from my early years. Over time, every disc with the exception of Comet, Stratus and XL have been replaced. These discs are true workhorses.

I did that once too. It was supposed to be just a tool to learn to throw clean. But from the first throws I fell in love with it so much that Comets have been permanently in my bag since

(btw: Anyone else have this weird association, that any time you see this "Comet love"-thread, a certain bass line starts playing in your head... "We've got this thing that's called Comet love. We've got a disc in the air - Comet love." )

Good decision. What did you get (plastic/weight)?

Its a Z comet, its also rather domey

was hoping for a lighter one like 170 when i ordered it from clearwater... but i scaled it and its a 172.6g.

Domey Z Comets are pretty stable. Takes a while to beat them into a turnover disc.

Pick up a light Elite-X if you want to have it show even the smallest form flaws.

Must be difficult to throw with those disc-condoms on

they are going into regular production according to the latest DC newsletter, so they will be easy to come by.

good thing I have like 8 of them stashed away so I don't go out and buy a bunch.

Even though I don't need one, I may have to get one of the new ESP Comets. If they're flippier, that's even better. I love a good, dependable, flippy midrange.

My first disc I learned to play with was a X Comet. And I still use them. I birdied a shot from 150' away with that X Comet disc. It was a straight throw right at the basket. My nephew (who I was playing with) and I were freaking out because we've only been playing for 3 months at the time. It is still my most memorable dg moment.

 

[Sooner34]

Comets are awesome! Really really like how pinpoint they can be. Now to learn to throw them even better!

/fulldisclosure

Even better = straight.
