    I love the OLF. Furthest flying fairway driver I’ve ever thrown. The standard plastic is nice for backhands, they’re a touch flippy but they bomb. Need to try the quantum

    Millennium is so underrated. Been bagging an Orion LS for about a year now, and it’s the perfect dead straight workable 9 speed. Flips up perfectly, such a fun disc. It feels like what the Valkyrie wants to be, but better. Might have to throw in an OLF now too

  • @dustinwilloughby296
    @dustinwilloughby296 Před 7 měsíci

    Try out the Innova Savant. Big Jerm and Nate Sexton have both bagged them and describe them as that beat in Thundy. Available in Halo plastic as well for a bit more stability out of the box.

    Bag the same run 1.4 of orion LF. Honestly the best 9 speed I've ever thrown. Chained out with it from 350 this weekend.

    Next time you're in a shop with some Mint Diamondbacks, give one a nice grope. The wing shape is almost identical to that Orion and they fly like Thunderbirds.

    Stoked you love that OLF! The Quantums are pretty reliable across the runs, but you should def check out some of the Sirius runs too. They’re one of the best discs to cycle. OLFheads everywhere are rejoicing right now 🤙🏼

    Seems like you're running on a great forehand High. How do you think that will fare without having a great backhand as well? Just talking in general

    • @broderic
      @broderic  Před 9 měsíci

      In my mind my backhand midrange game is actually the strongest part of my game and I’d actually consider myself a backhand dominant player but I’ve been dealing with a hip issue for about the last month so I’ve probably been throwing 80-90% forehands. I’m pretty confident in both forehand and backhand (when my hip isn’t wrecked) and feel as though I can hit almost any shot shape/angle from both sides🤝
      My backhand form has taken a massive hit as of late with my hip issue so over the next couple months I’m hoping to dial it back In🤝
