Default One Driver, One Mid-Range, One Putter
You get one of each for the rest of your disc golf playing days. What are they?

For me:
175g KC Pro Gazelle
180g KC Pro Roc
175g JK Pro Aviar

What are yours... forever?

150 DX Destroyer
FLX Buzzz
JU JU


Of course, the driver is half beaten in, and while my main putter is the Rattler, the JU JU is controllable at longer distances and will hold both annie and hyzer for going around obstacles.

This makes me want to do some three disc rounds. I know I'll miss my FLX Surges. I went back and forth on the driver, but I just can't get the distance from the Surges, especially on uphill shots. I should try it with both drivers to see if the accuracy of the Surge beats the distance of the Destroyer.

No... really. It is. Fairway DRIVER. By your interpretation, I would have said:

Star Destroyer
Gazelle
Aviar-X

But I am playing by the rules.

Are you saying that you do not throw a mid-range disc?

175g DX Aviar

That is EXACTLY what I would choose. Clearly, you have exquisite taste.

172g star eagle
177g kc roc
175g medium wizard

I only chose the kc roc since you have to pick one and use it forever. In real life I keep a star rancho in the bag and rotate a few dx ranchos.

Well, out of the ch. T-bird, St. T-bird, 2 ch. cheetahs, ch spider, z glide, ch. stingray, ch. aero and blowfly (all in the bag, regardless of the course) I definately use the cheetahs for midrange shots the most (between 280 and 150 feet). Inside that range I use one of the putters and outside that range I NEVER use one of the above. So do I use fairway drivers more than mid-range discs for mid-range shots, yup. I find they are less influenced by the wind and sneakier on the ground.
