I throw max weight buzzz's as well. Generally I throw Z's but my best buzzz I have is an esp that is as flat as any Z buzzz that I have. I've got 4 Glo Z's coming in to at max weight to, can't wait.
 
I prefer the flat buzzzzzzzzes myself. So basically anything run from the 1st run mold (FR,2FR,Midnight, etc).
Personally I have retired all of my 1st run buzzzes and throw the FLX now.. I think they are very similar.
I also carry(when my bag is how I want it) Beat in Flat Top D Buzzzes.

One sort of negative regarding the glow Z...I absolutely blasted a tree right off the teepad on a hole I wouldn't usually throw a Buzzz on (I was trying it off every tee). It visibly bent down the wing on one side slightly.

As I figured would happen, my original Glo Buzzz has come back to shape 100% after every hit and is barely different than a new one.


Mines been quite durable too. My durability fears were unwarranted it would appear. Its been retired for the winter so we'll see how things go next year.
 
I'm really enjoying my CFR CZ Buzzz, and the short-mid game is what I do best. It is indeed beefier than the others, and a little domey too. Also 180 g. It is a disc that I can crank on and it will hold the line for straight or hyzer shots (on anhyzer lines it will either turn right and then go straight, or burn into a cut roll...maybe it just needs more seasoning). I pair this with my shorter range Classic Roc, which does everything very well (hyzer, straight, anhyzer, putt, wind). For distances under 210' I use the Classic Roc almost exclusively, but in the 180-260' range I go to the CZ Buzzz, unless I need a controllable turning mid-range in which case I pull out a champ Panther.

Yesterday a herd of deer were walking about 250' uphill and for fun I hucked my CZ Buzzz in their direction...it sailed just a couple feet over their heads...they never seemed to have seen it, but they knew something was up, and when it touched down on the other side of them, they spooked and ran off.
 
I play in a Sunday handicap that is fairly recent in its development and includes most players in the recreational/intermediate category. I really enjoy playing with these guys because they have a great enthusiasm for the sport and are not entrenched in the kind of drama that plagues our more seasoned disc golf community.

Anyway, last Sunday we had a disc gift exchange where everyone was to bring a disc in new or good condition wrapped in xmas paper. Very few of the people who play throw anything I would like, so I just expected it to be fun and to get a disc for trade, etc. Also, the disc you ended up with you would then have to use exclusively (or trade with your partner) for a doubles round. We got in a huge circle and went around 3 times, each of which you could choose to trade or keep the disc in your hand. By some stroke of luck the person to my left was selected randomly to go first, which meant I had the ultimate pick of every disc there to be mine. That made me feel good, but honestly I still completely doubted that I would receive anything that would ever end up in my bag. Long story short, I end up with a brand new 177 Glo Z Buzzz...my favorite disc!
 
Scored a glo buzzz off my brother in law for christmas....this is the flattest disc I own! Flatter than the Z buzzzz I owned for a few years (which I lost in Oct. in about a foot of leaves on hole 17 at Cass Benton). Can't wait to go out and throw it, just holding it makes you want to go out and huck the living hell out of it.

I like all buzZz's but have an ESP and Regular Z in the bag right now.

I have almost one of each buzzz except the D and X buzzz.

I also have one that not very many have even heard about....

It is a clear 2007 players cup flx buzzz without a stamp. if I remember right there were less than 10 of these that made it out of the discraft factory without a stamp.

Other rare buzzzes that I have are...

White/"Milky" 2nd 1st Run Ghost Stamp with Certificate of Authenticity and Mini
White/"Milky" 2nd 1st Run without Stamp
Orange 1st Run
Lemon Lime 200? (4 I believe) World Doubles Buzzz that has Wasp on the inside rim

Might have some more but thats all i can remember about for now.
 
i throw 2nd first runs, but i recently tried a new production run and liked it almost as much. very similar. i'll probably be stocking up since they are much cheaper.
 
Got a 178 flat Z buzz from dave.....HOW COME I CAN THROW THIS 178 FARTHER THAN MY 172 OR 174 Z BUZZ, GLO BUZZ OR ESP BUZZ? I was having some bombs in the field today...not as stable as my lighter ones?????
 
When I pulled all my Buzzzes out for the photo in the mid porn thread I reaffirmed that the new Glos are indeed the best feeling Buzzzes. Playing a couple rounds without a Buzzz reaffirmed to me that the Buzzz is the best mid out there. When I played one of those unBuzzzed rounds last weekend I was told by a friend who is a Discraft Pro that I should keep the Buzzz in my bag always because I throw it better than anyone he's ever seen. That was a huge compliment that made me feel like fool for playing a single round without it.

Buzzz thrower for life... :mrgreen:
 
I lost my first Glo Buzzz in the lake last week :cry: Hopefully I'll get it back from the boat guy...

Anyway, I took some of my backups to the field to test out which one I'll replace it with. The one I lost was like 177.7. All of mine are between 176.6 and 177.6. Strangely, the heavier one was the least overstable. The lighter ones were the most stable.
 
My backup Glo Buzzz is throwing excellently! I was happy with the performance this weekend. Its also a testament to the durability of the Glo Buzzz...the one I lost was barely broken in after 3-4 months of heavy use. Glo Buzzz = best Buzzz of all time. I wish I could redo the poll at the start of this thread to include it.
 
What about the Photon Glo Buzzzzzzzzz's?

I have a 165g one that is nice and flippy right out of the box. It does nice low turnovers to get around and under trees. :)
 
Let me start by saying I have been a Roc fanatic for years but I picked up a couple of the new Z glo Buzzzes last weekend because they just looked so sexy and I had scrip to spend. These things are the real deal. I played a tournament today and thought I would try one out. They are the bee's knees. They held various lines well, were slightly longer and needed less elevation than my rocs. I usually carry three Ranchos in various stages of wear but the Buzzz worked almost all the angles I needed today. I think I just found a new mid range love............
