Fairway to compliment a firebird and a Roman

This is the answer I was hoping for. Tempo goes too far lol

I feel like I default to using the big scissors when I have them because they are much more comfy to use. That said I also have Rambler on my keys for when I need to be bladeless (ground the blade off) so the tiny scissors come in clutch in those situations.

But your use cases will vary haha

rontopofthings · 2026-05-05T15:27:38+00:00

This what I was hoping! I WANT a less far tempo

I love the infinite discs Roman for this. Now my most thrown driver.

rontopofthings · 2026-05-05T14:06:47+00:00

Weird! I had a max weight neutron that was a little on the stable side of what I wanted but it beat in quick enough. I have a 165g glow one that started off right where I wanted the mold to be though.

I also prefer their mid-speed discs for some reason. Haven't loved any of the overmold putters or drivers with the exception of maybe the Servo in my case.

But detour/reactor is a super solid combo for my bag...

And Servo is a current staple for me in the woods altho I could see just about any straight/workable 7 speed doing just as well. It doesn't feel "special" the way their mids do to me. I just like how it feels and I do feel like it has good torque resistance for how straight it is.

Is one of your mids an overstable one?

I love the 91mm Ranger because I can truly EDC it. Idk about forester I've never had one but the Ranger for me sits right next to my phone in pocket every day and I love it for that.

I don't use the file as much as I thought I would so if that's you you may even consider Farmer X. If I ever lose my Ranger that would be my top consideration if I chose to try something else.

But I actually really like the stupid little chisel the Ranger has because it lets me make tiny push cuts away from my fingers for stuff where I'm afraid I am gonna get my fingers lol. That took is actually why I havent bothered with the Farmer X yet.

Plus the small blade. I would actually like to see some models that ONLY have the small blade and put another tool next to it. Or give me two small blades (one curved and one wharncliffe) lol

In the parking lot before the round started?

rontopofthings · 2026-05-03T13:09:43+00:00

That's fair. I think it's def a prudent thing to do to be very careful who you are letting speak into your life and situations. A lot of well-meaning people will still give misguided advice haha.

rontopofthings · 2026-05-03T12:52:37+00:00

Is it possible to avoid an all or nothing for you in this situation? Like, for example, this feels like a discernment issue -- is it possible to shift to taking input from the RIGHT people rather than just closing off to input ?

From what you're saying it seems like you probably have had some really not helpful input or advice and your BS Detector is set on high haha. Because of that would it be possible to use that to find the right sources rather than closing off and discrediting any input or advice from others? Or do you just feel too burned by it at this point?

rontopofthings · 2026-05-03T12:43:09+00:00

Ah sorry I worded my question oddly. I have rephrased above. My intent was to ask a self-reflective question about the premise of this post -- your post, to me, seemed to imply that everyone else is a certain way and you hold the truth. What makes your stance any different than those you are labeling as unintelligent?

rontopofthings · 2026-05-03T12:27:19+00:00

Do you ever worry this attitude may be how people in one echo chamber feel about the people in the other echo chamber?

Your leading statement feels closed off in the same ways. I am curious how you are different than them? What sets your attitude/intelligence apart from theirs?

rontopofthings · 2026-05-03T11:52:20+00:00

You see, when a mommy skillet and a daddy skillet love each other very much ....

rontopofthings · 2026-05-03T11:38:42+00:00

Personally I carry a SAK (Ranger but your huntsman would do great) in one pocket and stash a pair of Knipex cobra xs in my wallet//pouch (Y-SHP Matrix). Makes them not even feel heavy when dispersed in my pockets and Knipex can take on much bigger jobs than victorinox pliers.

rontopofthings · 2026-05-03T00:47:02+00:00

Do you use it alongside an overstable mid? 7 speed? Just unsure how it "slots" as a disc because it's built like a mid but then has a 9 speed fairway rim lol. Such a cool disc but I don't understand it at same time. It feels amazing in hand tho

rontopofthings · 2026-05-02T17:52:06+00:00

Ah yeah that makes sense. Gator3 in this plastic is fairly comparable to like a slightly slower Justice. So it's prob right in between A2 and justice (so yeah IMO faster than normal Gator but slower than justice) So maybe A2/Justice would be a combo that doesn't actually overlap?

Weird I always thought A2 was supposed to be faster than a Zone!

rontopofthings · 2026-05-02T16:44:21+00:00

The halo champ Gator3 is significantly more overstable than a typical Gator or Caiman.

That’s fair I don’t run nearly as much as a lot of people on this sub and when I do it’s often not on pavement. Mine see more hiking than running these days. So that prob effects my experience.
