      I’m sure u know some of this already but each disc has numbers even tho some don’t print it on the disc you can find it online! Quick tip that I learned from throwing some of my friends discs! If you throw around 270-300 feet max try a “blizzard plastic” (makes the disc super light) disc by innova! I have a innova krait in that plastic and it’s 141g 11/ 5 / -1 / 2. The disc flies with such glide and power but it’s easy to get that speed because of the weight! For me I can throw it around 320-350ft. I suggest trying it out! They got some more as well in this plastic! Have fun out on the course bro

    • @kimmomatikainen1843
      @kimmomatikainen1843 Před 3 lety +1

      @@PoloZ34 Most bigger manufacturers make lightweight discs. Prodigy, Dynamic Disc, Latitude etc. Discraft doesn't have many of those. Discmania has those too.
      I ditched Innova many years ago, because you never know what you get when you buy Innova. Very inconsistent. You buy two from the same mold and they fly totally differently. With that arm speed, I recommend to try Latitude's Sapphire if you like lighter discs. For the woods, e.g. Dynamic Discs Breakout for hyzerflips and controlled drives.

    That was one of the best descriptions of how wind affects the stability that I've heard. It finally makes sense to me why the discs react the way they do in a head and tail wind.

    Awesome video. I’ve only been playing about two months now but it’s crazy how many different discs I have bought in different types of plastic to put a bag together that works for my throw. I’m constantly experimenting with the same disc but different plastic, and different discs all together to find what comes out best for me. At first I couldn’t believe how much more my Champion Roc 3 faded than my DX Roc 3 when I first got them. Just got myself a basket recently and I bought a bunch of new putters to test out and practice with. Each person has to find what works for them.

Now I’m going to use your advise and watch this over again a couple times and see if l can be successful throwing my stable and unstable drivers . I like how you explain and show us what works for you and that is a good starting point for me to work on and start using those discs that have stayed in the cart because l wasn’t sure how to throw them. Wanted also to thank Paul McBeth for being your mentor and l really enjoyed watching you and him play rounds together this year. Proud of you and please keep the videos coming, Dark Horse rules!!
