Same. I bought one used that was super beat up. I assumed it would be a great uphill disc thinking the stability would be beat out of it. Nope. Ditto, PFN champ banshee will go straighter longer.

Seems to be trend here!
I bought a 161 last summer and it's a meat-hook compared to all of my other Teebirds. I wanted to try a Starlite for a few uphill shots on a local course, but it ain't gonna happen. I have a star Banshee that I can throw further.

Currently bagging an infinite discs infinity bomb 158g star, and a 175g color glow champ.
Both are mad stable and hook up plenty at the end. The 158 Star has a little left to right movement if I put everything on it, but the CGC is straight to fade all the way.
Hoping the Star seasons into a utility bomber like the old 165g Star TB I lost to my AWOL travel bag, and hoping the champ stays as is for as long as possible.

Nothing that stands out from my others. It has the same dome as my Star and Echostar and the PLH is the same as my Champion, but it's more stable. After winter, I'll take it out and try it some more, maybe it just needs to hit a few trees.

Couldn't resist a new CFR Champ Glow Teebird at PIAS for $7.99, going to use it for thumbers this winter to try to beat some stability out.

No doubt. Teebird is oe of the discs I'll pretty much buy everyone I see at pias. Alas, I've only ever seen 2.

I rarely buy new discs now, but have a hard time passing up used teebirds too!

Yesterday I picked up a 11x kc pro teebird at pias - condition is approx 6/7 - wondering it's worth? I'm a trilogy guy, may trade it to a teebird lover for the right deal

Do the trade for 2 or 3 really good Trilogy discs. Trading is always more fun than selling.

Anyone throw a Color Glow Champion Teebird? How do they compare to regular production Champion Teebirds?
I bought a few color glow Teebirds (blue) when they first came out, 175g. They have been some of the best headwind discs I've ever thrown. Very beefy, takes a while to break in. I love them as a forehand roller discs as well.
I also bought a pink 168g Teebird last year and it flies alright. Still beefy for a Teebird but doesn't get the same distance in a headwind, though that might be because it is not as heavy as my other ones.
Don't expect to get the same distance as you would with a Star or Champ Teebird.

Does anyone else dislike Champion Teebirds with a decent amount of dome? I have quite a few Champs. I much prefer flat Champion Teebirds or with just a very small amount of dome. I don't think I'm ever buying Champion Teebirds online again (unless there is pictures). I just got a sweet looking American flag stamped one with a lot of dome. I think a big part of it is I like to flick Teebirds as much I like to throw them backhand. I prefer to flick flat discs. Am I the only person like this or do others feel the same way?

I don't think I've ever heard someone say "I love the domey Teebird I just got". lol.
Doesn't have to be firebird flat, but if a disc is too domey it seems to effect my grip a bit and I have a more inconsistent release.

My newest fav Teeb...ahh love me some JL.
Not sure how it flies, but that is a great looking Teebird. Both stamp and that creamy-orange plastic are not too bad.
