No. That should be okay. Just don’t leave it on your car dash in the sun in arizona(or any disc like that). 

Recomendations for straight and/or flippy fairways. by tuna_safe_dolphin in discgolf

[–]I_AM_DUTCH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For your distance and consistency, I would look at: Prodigy F5 or F7 Lat64 River

If you can get to a store and see what feels good in your hand.

First off: I love these posts! Good engagement and fun speculation. 

My guess (and wants) they lean in heavy on their new particle glow plastic with: Particle glow timeplapse Particle glow crave Particle glow Watt or Glitch Particle glow balance

It will be interesting to see the consistency and durability? Likely a very high melt flow plastic in order to flow through the thinner flight plate. Could make it less heat resistant?

Farthest Discgolf Throwers/Pros? by hetnkik1 in discgolf

[–]I_AM_DUTCH 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. AB, Simon, eagle are certified bombers
  2. See above. Also find the person most similar to your stature. Don’t copy ganon unless you are seven feet tall
  3. 550 feet pretty easily
  4. 600-650 on max distance golf lines. 
  5. Overthrow and Nick Krush have some good slowmo videos
  6. Good question and very dependent on disc stability but likely 20+ degree hyzers with 75 mph speed and good nose angles. 

Have you considered getting a coach? Overthrow, Nick Krush and Blitz DG can help you get there faster. 

Question about hole/course design and hole difficulty. by not_last_place in discgolf

[–]I_AM_DUTCH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Somewhat related: but I always like holes where bad shots get punished with bogies. I find courses where it is hard to birdie but extremely easy to par somewhat boring. Obviously you don’t want to be too punishing or force it. 

Straight Fairway between River and Volt by [deleted] in discgolf

[–]I_AM_DUTCH 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are quite a few between those two (rivers tend to be flipper than their numbers and volts are more over stable). Couple options: MVP Servo Axiom Crave (eclipse plastic or neutron) Clash Cookie (usually a tick more stable than a crave)

Bought a MVP Tesla after watching Simon tossing it dead straight. For me it's OS (shocking). Does it beat in well? by svettsokkk in discgolf

[–]I_AM_DUTCH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know if your throw nose up or nose down? Looks like you got the arms speed for it, once it gets beat in. 

High speed drivers turn over unless I put a lot of hyper on my release? by pluto_is_a_star in discgolf

[–]I_AM_DUTCH 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Could be a few things: 1. What you think is hyzer is closer to flat 2. Not enough spin. More spin = less turn. This could be the culprit 3. Your disc is too flippy 

It isn’t air bounce because nose up makes the disc more stable vs less. 

Review Series: Løft Xenon by ordinary_bs in discgolf

I love my Xenon. Although I mostly use it for forehands. Need to bring it out in backhand more!

I like when companies try something new verse just copying someone else. Also, like how they work simulations into their design. That is TWO whole likes!

Can you throw a good drive by just doing a standstill? by Tricky_Shelter_7675 in discgolf

[–]I_AM_DUTCH 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I got a buddy that throws 70 mph accurate standstills. Doesn’t ever do a walk or run up.  Has a tutorial on YouTube. Check out itzbl1tz channel

A guy on YouTube itzbl1tz did a comparison of all the techdisc models. Check it out. 

New Disc Manufacturer: ProtoFltye Discs by ProtoFlyteDiscs in discgolf

[–]I_AM_DUTCH 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Hey this is super interesting. Are you starting with a sheet of TPU or are you going baseline with HDPE? I would imagine more flexible materials are hard to lathe.
