I would recommend consolidating to a few differen versions of the same mold. For example, I love my predators so I throw two. One is a 172g beat in Z pred for longer hard hook shots. Flys dead straight with a really hard hook. Then, There's my heavier Z pred that's newer for bigger spikes and hyzers. Hope that helps consolidate.

I too have tried to simplify my bag. it's only been a couple weeks, but I am not second guessing my shots anymore because i've kept my selection simple.

If you seek more accuracy stick with your fairways and mids off the pad. Once you're dialed in where you want to be then start crushing it with the distance drivers.

what kind of courses do you normally play?

3 Nukes and 2 Wraiths seems overkill, I would drop the two you use the least. The Comet and Buzzz SS seem to completely overlap, and the Epic could go too imo.

Other than that looks good.

If you wanna weed out some molds.. Id say pick either the Teebird or Striker.. and same with the Ion and Anode.. different stages of wear would cover the same shots you're using multiple molds for. Having multiple molds isn't a bad thing if they aren't overlapping.. which it appears that they aren't too bad.. but ya. If you're tryin to get rid of some molds thats my suggestion.

What discs (from each category) have been in your bag without throwing them? I would clear those out first and then start working on overlap.

This is what I would do if your really wanting to consolidate:

3x Nukes- OS, Main Driver, Understable

2x Striker- Heavy Opto for OS, GL for main fairway
1x River- Understable

3x Buzzz- Glow for OS (replace hornet), main buzzz, X Buzzz or BuzzzSS for understable duties

1x Zone

1x Anode

2x Magnet- One main putter, one working in

I would say you can always use a OS utility Fairway/ Control, and if you really don't like driving with the Anode add the Ion back and FH the Zone instead of annying the Anode.

Honestly, with expection of your Fairways (Teebird, Eagle, Striker) your bag is pretty clean.

thanks for the reply's guys. I think I'm gonna pull the wraiths out for now. I just need to get some FH throws in with my nuke. I didn't know opto was more os than gl striker. I think that might be able to replace the teebird. anyway thanks for the help.
