Dear lord, do you carry all that in one bag?!
Been working on discing down recently, but placed a new disc order today to really solidify the bag for awhile. Here is what my bag will look like after the order comes in:
Putters:
2 173 Classic Judges
Mid Range:
175 Z Buzzz
168 X Buzzz
166 DX Wolf
3 168 X Comet
Fairways:
~150 DX Leopard
168 Pro Leopard
170 Pro Leopard
167 DX Teebird
Distance Driver:
171 DX Sidewinder
I feel i don't need much, valkyrie, firebird, buzz and eagle, I mostly throw an eagle, tend to play one disc rounds with just an eagle, I carry a wizard as my putter, with 2 buzzes 2 eagles and 3 putters i carry a grand total of 9 discs, making choices is pretty easy
i lost four discs today.
i wanted to get an ax and chop the rest of them to pieces; i was so angry.
Discing down, as it pertains to this thread, is using speed appropriate discs for your skill level instead of the high-speed drivers most people start out with. When you try to learn how to throw a golf disc by using a high-speed driver, that's like starting out a video game on extreme difficulty. Sure, some people are naturals and figure it out quickly thanks to a baseball background or something but most of us toil and learn terrible habits just trying to make the disc go sort of straight and end up in the general direction we want it.
Discing down to discs that are slower (NOT JUST PUTTERS AND/OR MIDS) and more in the stable/neutral range encourages learning disc golf throwing fundamentals. Once you get the basic fundamentals down, you can do whatever you want in terms of organizing your bag.
Demon102, BrotherDave answered your question a page ago...
I have been picking up a few fairway drivers lately as well as throwing mids. Most of the time I am in better position off the pad. Yeah, the big boys go farther faster, but 300ft in the right direction usually trump 350-400 that burned right or faded left.
Viking and Valkyrie both throw great at reduced power.
