One Plastic to Rule Them All.

Fossil. It's the KC of yesteryear.
I love cycling discs and fossil does it as well as any plastic I've used.

I just need to produce our mids and I'll be set on nearly every 300 ft. And in shot.
 
Am I really the first to pick Champion plastic? I would be happy to have most all of my drivers and mids in champ blends. Putters would be an adjustment though.

Gateway's S-Line and Organic blends might be honorable mentions here...
 
The older gritty/grippy Elite X is the bomb. Circa 2005-2006. It would hold up well while betting amazingly grippy.
 
Old Star.

I could get used to Star Big Bead putters I guess.

Star, because it has so many varieties... you can get stiff star, just as gummy as G-Star star, regular half still star, star-lite (blizzard star).

Always been a fan of star plastic. Stays in its sweet spot for ages it seems, and grip is always there.

so torn. if only DX existed i'd be totally fine since i like buying new discs a lot, and I buy backups for premium too. also love them for putting.

however - STAR is what i would go with. i fan grip everything including distance drives and have great control and feel on the fingertips. a stiff star putter would be just fine.



These guys are super smart. That older Star that get grippy as all get out, stays in a sweet spot forever, not too soft, not too stiff. Man, that's the good stuff.
 
I don't throw premium plastic putters or mids very well, I've always preferred DX or KC-style plastic for these spots. On the other side, I pretty much only throw Champ/Star plastics for all drivers (except one Excel Patriot that I love).

I guess if I really had to choose, I would rather be comfortable with the feel of my putters/mids and deal with crappy driver durability.

Gateway S for everything!
 
Torn between kc pro, fossil and classic blend.

Id have to switch the bag up a bit but wouldnt be a problem

Prolly switch to banshees from teebird or a mix.

Switch to xcals from destroyers or a mix.

Cycle thunderbirds.

Cycle rocs with maybe a gator or two.

Fossil novas sound just amazing.
 
Overall I'd have to go for gummy champ (or crystal FLX Z). I love throwing softer discs; given the choice between entirely stiff or entirely gummy I'd have to go for gummy. I think I could get used to throwing gummier versions of my current stiffer plastic much easier than trying to adjust my game for not having some softer discs in the bag.
 
That's a tough one. Love Star & Champion. I throw a lot of FLX and some ESP. My putters until recently were all SSS. And with the introduction of some MVP, I'm liking them too.

But if I had to choose just one plastic it would be Discraft's Z.
 
I would go with Vibram X-Link Medium. Great grip in all weather conditions, very durable, and wears in very slow.

I'm also a fan of DD Fuzion plastic.
