why arent you throwing a putter from that range
but to answer your question try a discraft buzzz
Spider - soft champ is easier to range for me between 200-100 differences in power and still maintain both FH and BH lines with a nice little dump and stick instead of gliding past like most straight to understable putters will for me. The rim feels comfy whether going fan grip, power or two-finger FH - it's also my go-to for OH and the occasional get-out-of-shue roller.
It really is a feel thing tho. Find a disc that feels right and your mind/arm will make the adjustments if you are feeling confident in your plastic.
The Spider is OOP? I am not even sure the Star, last plastic made in is still being produced.
Nope, and I'm hoping for a '3' version eventually.

Hi guys, I am new to this forum. I've been playing disc golf for many years and just recently started to seriously improve my game. This question concerns one of my weakest areas of disc golf, which is approaching from outside 50 feet to the the next distance I can reliably power down a fairway driver (for me this is champion banshee and probably would put that at approx. 120 ft give or take 10 feet or so. So for me this is about i.e. flat footed shots in the woods or behind trees trying to give myself the best chances on a putt.
I think the more glide the better in this situation (travels further on misthrow). Right now the best thing I've found is the DX shark, which has worked out okay for me, but that is usually due to luck (it doesn't go on the intended line, but still somehow gets me close enough). I switched to a g-star shark to provide more stability at higher speeds(over 80%), but it lost me some of the accuracy within my gap. I've looked at lot within innova molds and one thing I found out is my middle finger can't handle beaded rims without getting irritated.

The shark is a great disc, but when it gets chewed up, even "beadless" it irritates the middle finger knuckle. I hate beads. Stay away from the Discraft comet.
I'm with those who say buzzz. It's such a versatile disc, it has no bead, and you can play it low power to full power and get consistency.
Have you ever thrown a mako or mako3? It's kind of an oddly satisfying disc in that it's dead straight
I hate beads. All my homies hate beads
If I could only have a single midrange disc in my bag, it'd be a C-Line MD. Unless you're really trying to huck it, it holds whatever angle you put it on.

My personal preference in zone plastic is zflx because it doesn't seem to break in. I have a (relatively lightweight) 165 jawbreaker that I don't use because it flies too much like my ringers. What weight are you looking for? I agree with what VictorB says about the comet and that's why I had a whole batch made for a club of new players as their first (only) disc. And it flies like all of its fans say, which means you get a lot of options from that one disc. For example, you can make it fly like a sol, but you can't power up the sol to fly like a comet. But it does have a really sharp bead.
