This is more for the seasoned discers out there, I am wanting to put a bag together that is a blast from the past, I figured there is a few suggestions for discs that I may not be aware of or have never thrown. Any suggestions, so far the only older discs that I have thrown are stingrays, eclipses and an old first run dx eagle.

Grant,
I remember a fellow from up north, Brother Don Bishop, who loved old school discs. He used to say "are you still throwing that hippy shit"?
Here's a few for you.
Aero
XD
Cobra
Roc-original, (good luck with this one)
P51 Mustang, Bearcat, Spitfire (Lightning)
86 Softie (Whamo)
Puppy
Vortex, Shadow (Discraft) The Eclipse was my best disc for a time.
Thanks for sparking some memories hombre!

Throw in a Tracer, a B-17 Flying Fortress, a Scorpion, Rubber Putter, 44 Mold, 71 Mold, and a Original "roll up and stick in your back pocket" Gumbputt... Then toss them into a Wall City bag, or the Nylon Innova bag.

Doesn't the PDGA have a "Vintage Class" of sanctioned tournaments. You could take a look at the rules for some more info on oldschool stuff.
Aviar probably fits the oldschool bill even though it is maintained its relevancy over the years.

You really want to go old school, grab a Whamo 141, or 165, better yet a 150 Masters if you can find one; all those others, well I remember them, like all the current choices, as the new discs on the block...

thx for all the choices, I just wish I had some extra flow layin around so I could purchase some of these oldies, quick google search tells me that most of these disc have a hefty price tag to aquire, I guess slowly but surely it will happen.

I've got an old 86 Softie if you'd like it, it's in the truck so next time you see me on the links remind me, and she's yours.

A nice 80 mold Midnight Flyer might fetch $100 or more on Ebay, but last month I was able to land a 'TK $50,000.00' glow 80 mold on ebay for only $12.00!!!

Check out a Barracuda and a Moray. I just bought a couple off ebay and they weren't too expensive.

I have seen both of those on ebay, how do they fly? I am really partial to slow, floaty, line shaping kind of discs rather than haul'n ass kind of discs,thx for the heads up tho.
