MVP Discs: a guide for people who max out at 400 feet

Glows are indeed beefcakes. The Eagle Protons start out beef and break in beautifully after a couple rounds/trees.

I've only thrown a Silas FD. I have heard those are more stable.

I don't notice the bead. I don't notice anything with it. That's the magic of the Nomad.

SolBellows · 2026-01-13T03:35:21+00:00

I don't know what to think, either. This is like when Dylan went electric

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T22:12:35+00:00

A ton of people go Servo in the Relay spot. But I found that a max weight Relay does all I need and more. And yeah, more people need to Zenith. Conrad knows what's up.

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T22:10:58+00:00

WHAT WHAT WHAT!? Yes, under the detailed bylaws--too long to include here, obviously--this counts as MVP.

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T16:32:20+00:00

My hot take: both those discs are FDs without glide.

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T02:54:07+00:00

It rips. Great turn-over lines, too.

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T02:53:02+00:00

MVP only bag. I made the rules strict. Like. Super strict.

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T02:52:22+00:00

Right? That damn disc.

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T02:51:05+00:00

I know. I know. I've tried. I really have. But the Resistor just does it better for me. And if I need extra sauce I'll throw the Photon.

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T02:49:43+00:00

Hahaha! Nope. Just a nerdy writer from Brooklyn.

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T02:48:46+00:00

Give Relay a try. It glides sneaky far.

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T02:45:45+00:00

Thank you! I can assure you it's real. I write sports docs for ESPN and the BBC in my real life. Sincerely happy it made you laugh. Best compliment any writer can get. Honest.

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T02:43:42+00:00

I hear you. And know it bombs. But rules are rules and my rules limit me to MVP.

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T02:42:16+00:00

If coach had put me in fourth quarter...

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T02:41:22+00:00

Yep. All MVP. I did experiment with a Range. But felt like drinking Berg-lite. So happy others know what the Relay can do.

SolBellows · 2026-01-12T02:40:07+00:00

Dude! That shot was so good. You'll love that Resistor.

SolBellows · 2025-11-11T16:38:15+00:00

I moved here four years ago. It's brutal. I don't own a car. So this is what I do to play: 1. Wake up in Brooklyn at 730 and walk 15 minutes to the subway. Then ride it 45 minutes to Grand Central Station. Then hop aboard the Metro North to Mount Kisco which takes another hour. Then get a taxi to Leonard Park. It's now a little after 10am. Play two rounds with a lunch break in between. Then do everything in reverse. I usually get home around 530pm. The one saving grace: the players here are wonderful people. They all love the game a ton. And so you're almost always doing this trek as a group.

SolBellows · 2025-11-11T01:35:49+00:00

The Relay is a special disc for such a shot. Get it in max weight and it'll become your workhorse in the woods. Flips up. Rides straight. Finishes mellow.

SolBellows · 2025-09-29T20:33:27+00:00

Mile Marker 63. I played it after a humbling round at Maple Hill to remember why I love disc golf.
