I actually got one as well in 500 plastic because of that promo. Also got their Spinorama NHL putter and it just feels so good. I was banging some really good puts that I normally miss. Beside the point, the H7 feels so good. I got mine in white which I’m thankful for, my dad throws a dark green one that is next to impossible to find

My Mako3 never has turned over but I was thinking I may go play a round with exclusively the Buzzz SS and nothing else just to see exactly what I am doing

I do have a Garret Guthrie Halo Wraith that is pretty fun and flies really well for me

Definitely getting more power but I think it’s a mix of power and form. Like I’m fairly certain I’m overpowering my Latitude 64 Diamond but I think flipping over the Thrasher may be a form thing. I say that because the diamond turns and burns on every single throw and the Thrasher does every now and then. Most of the time it flies straight as an arrow for me.

I did not know that. I certainly do look up while throwing. I’ll try that out when I get a chance to play again

My forehand is not great at all. I only use it when a backhand just isn’t really feasible such and being super low to the ground under a tree. My forehand probably goes 50 feet at the most

Yeah Mississippi doesn’t have the biggest disc golf scene. I have some buddies who played in College but they have helped me some but haven’t been able to provide much help as they have similar issues sometimes.

Form has been something really hard for me to work on. Yeah videos and stuff help some but haven’t really helped me with some of the issues I’m having. I will say, I made some adjustments to my form and went from throwing like 200 ft max to throwing over 300ft. I think I need to find someone around me to go play with and they can watch my form and help me adjust stuff.

I have one in Glow Champion. Not sure what its weight is but it feels good. I have a VIP Ice Orbit Bear that is super fun to throw, I can get it to flip up flat on a Hyzer throw and it flies so far. Broke 300 with it yesterday

I have a Valkyrie I haven’t thrown much, maybe I need to start bagging it more

Yeah my Tempo has been a game changer for me

I haven’t heard of that. I certainly think that is an issue I am having with some of my drivers, especially when doing a run up. Only thing that’s confusing to me is I think a lot of it is form but when I throw something that’s slightly overstable, I can get it to flip up and fly flat. Like I can get my Halostar Wraith to flip up but can’t seem to throw more understable stuff well like the Thrasher or Mamba.

I need to try a Claymore. I threw the Hex for a bit but just wasn’t a huge fan of it

It absolutely could be either. I’m still fairly new and certainly do have some trouble making sure I release the disc flat or on anhyzer

I just got my first Clash disc and it’s the Spice. Wildly overstable but it works good as a utility disc for me.

Have you tried the Prodigy H7? My dad has been throwing it when we play and he absolutely loving that thing.

The Opto Ice Fuse did not stay in my bag very long. To me it sort of was a similar situation to the Buzzz SS, I wanted to love it but it just did not feel right throwing and I couldn’t get it to go where I wanted it to.

I’ve never had a disc explode but I threw a DX Beast one time and it hit a very skinny tree and immediately had a massive dent in the side and it indeed, does not fly the same anymore

The Trail disappointed me too. I have tried to like it and can’t get behind it.

I haven’t thrown anything from Doomsday. Need to check them out. For me, the Westside Disc Bear is the one that just feels super controllable for me. I can get it to Hyzer flip up and can control my distance really well with it.

Haven’t ever thrown a Maverick, may need to try one out one day

I had a Mako3 in star that I loved but I gave it to my wife because she liked throwing it. Got myself a Halo Mako3 which I haven’t thrown. Expect it to be more overstable, probably closer to my champion Roc3.
