Poll: What's in your bag?

[erp]

So pardon me if this has been done (I know there have been a couple threads on what folks have in their bags...) but I wanted to get an idea of what the relative percentages are of huckers using particular brands of plastic.

Enjoy, and please, let this thread devolve into alpha-monkey name calling and poo flinging - I soooo love that stuff!

[Adam Schneider]

I have Discraft midranges, a mix of Innova and Discraft drivers, and a Lightning putter.

Dangit, I forgot Lightning - any other omissions?

If you want to be complete, you could put in DGA, Quest AT, and Latitude 64.

Too bad the vBulletin polls don't let you select multiple options (checkboxes instead of radio buttons).

Multiple choice was an option - but I was hoping to get a sense of how many partisans there were v. folks that aren't brand loyal.

I'm open to reposting this if folks think it would be better with the other brands indicated and/or multiple choice.

I would like to make the results public though so you could see who throws multiple brands v. single.

My bag is slowly converting to Discraft. If I lose a Innova, I replace it with Discraft.

[REDFIVE]

Innova because it is cool.

[jevon]

I use both Discraft and Innova drivers, Discraft midrange, and a Gateway putter.

[Toby Puttzinski]

what he said, sorta.. innova drivers, innova/discraft mids, and a gateway wizard for puttin' stuff.

[Ol' Bob]

What I said a couple weeks ago, last time this came up.

[Wes Hansen]

Smokes, sunflower seeds, glass, keys, wallet, minis, phone (off), drink, pencils, old curtain piece, lighter and matches, and maybe something else.
Any disc is fine.
Anyone else just like to watch them fly?

You threw mainly innova then got served some tainted papatarts. What are the main differences, if any, you have found since switching sides?

The best part of the poll so far is the 39.39% of golfers that answered: "Other/ my bag has an incestuous mix of plastic and I am a sick pervert."

I've had my suspicions...

[Brian]

I use Quest AT, Innova, Discraft, DGA in my bag.

lol I wouldnt go advertising that I had a lighting disc in my bag but thats just me

[chris7graham]

me I got a mix bag of innova and discraft I love the last years ace race it is bad ass

[Scott]

99% Innova for me. Once in a while a Discraft disc will slip into the rotation. No particular reason for the loyalty, I just happen to be most familiar with Innova discs.

Great question. The difference for me is about 10 rating points

Honestly, the plastic is a lot different (I think it is more durable) and Discraft has a better mid-range line up. I know the Roc is the Roc and it will forever reign as the midrange king, but beyond that, the supprting cast of midrange discs gets their butts kicked by the Buzzz and its supporting team.

Buzzz, Nebula (2008 ace race, not in production yet), Meteor are quite the team that I use.

Putters are putters and it comes down to preference. I use to putt with a low profile Classic Roc, but now I use a Challenger and putt better.

Drivers are tricky, cause Discraft doesnt have anything as fast as a Destroyer, XCal or Boss. The Force is the fastest disc for us, and most pros dont have any trouble keeping up with the Innova guys when it comes to distance on the course, but as far as a pure bomber goes, they dont fly as far as the Innova ones. Partly because they are STABLE. Discraft is working on a new high speed disc though, so everything will be balanced soon.

Innova doesnt have a Force, Predator, or Stalker
Discraft doesnt have a speed 12/13, or Teebird

In reallity, a disc is a disc, and no matter what you throw it all depends on how you throw.

I have found that I can throw my Force a bit further than the Innova counterparts. I have much more confidence in an actual full power throw, which I don't feel comfortable with the Destroyer/Boss. The Xcal was close, but if I release it flat full power I can't depend on it. The Force may be a touch slower, but I can put so much more power on it that I can throw it easily 20-30' further than the Destroyer/Boss line-up. Also, I believe it glides considerably better.

Granted, my throwing style does not really coincide with the general populace. My longest recorded throw was with a Z-Predator at sea-level. But this is my experience, none-the-less.
