I might be replacing my Pro Shark with a G Star Shark if the Pro disc becomes US and does not stay neutral since the disc broke in right away after a year of use.

GStar is going to break in relatively quickly, also. If you want your Shark to stay where it is, go for Star. (Champion would be better, but I don't know if Sharks come in Champion plastic like the Shark3 does.)

No what I am really looking for is a disc that would work better as my windy putting putter as the Pro is broken in to neutral and can't handle the really strong winds when I play on occasion. The bonus is the G Star is found above 167 grams what Innova's Pro Shop sells the old pro X out at or did when I last looked a few weeks ago and Around the 175 gram discs are what I am looking for. The Star Bounces more out of the chains then I would like and a plastic that is a soft flexible Star seems like it would not bounce as much as Star.
The XT Colt is what got me throwing putters, even though it's more of a mid range feel to me. It's the reason I throw Ringer GT's now as well. I never threw deep putters well but the Colt and Ringer fit my hand and feel nicely to where I could still get putter flight without having to find a super beat up powered down mid range disc.
Against my wifes better wishes I'm interested in trying the Kong and the Raptor. I doubt the Raptor will replace my Vultures unless it's just that much more stable, but we'll see.

Yeah the #2 Upshot in ProStyle Plastic similar to the XD/Colt is what I used to throw as a putter as well as uphill/downhill putter until my putter got the top with the micro warping as the disc did not fly when driving with the disc without wobble. Now The #2 Upshot just does the main thing and I use Star and Pro Sharks at 175 grams for the driving putter slot but more the Star as the Pro is more broken in to neutral flight.
Just got a couple 400 H3v2s and two 750G Spectrum D3s.
I want to test the H3v2s against Saint Pros, Thunderbirds, and Riots.
The D3s feel like bombers.
I want to test an Eraser Wizard against my Shields for throwing.
I really like the feel of Eraser but it'll be hard to replace my Shields.
I'll be throwing these this week.

Last year, I used a heat and a crank for distance drives, but this past autumn, I lost my crank driver on a ski hill course a couple weeks before snow started falling and it was lost for good (or at least until the thaw) so this year I figured I'd try something different and more on the OS side of the spectrum to complement my heat. What I really wanted was a super lightweight z-lite nuke OS but they don't seem to be available new for purchase from any retailer (according to a Discraft rep, the z-lite plastic is on backorder) so instead I ordered a light (160) z-flx punisher and a light (160) z-flx nuke. Last season, I started off by favoring a spectra and a nuke SS, but ended favoring the crank. I have a heavier nuke that I never grew into so I figured that maybe I'll try a lightweight grippy one and see what I can do with it. So yeah, I'm kind of excited to get out there and throw my new lightweight punisher and nuke.
