Best mid-range for RHFH

[Kris C]

What's your opinion? Please tell me why too.

[TreeLove]

And while we're at it, which discs are good for LHFH?

[Nathan]

The ESP Zone. Its considered a putter but I throw it like its a mid range. Its great for sidearms up to 250'ish. Its overstable and can be thrown really straight and finish, with hyzer and hold the hyzer or anhyzer and flatten out. It always seems to end up where I meant to throw it, so I love it.

[Bruce]

If I need a 'mid' for sidearm it's generally a whippet x. Great overstable finish with a new one, and I have an older that will hold an anhyzer line fairly well.

[The Ombudsman]

The Mako is a great midrange with a flight path much like that of a catching disc - very true to the flight path you put it on. (Of course, there is no better forehand disc that the 80 mold.)

[Trozzle!!!]

as a RHFH player solely, If I have a good but short backhand shot I go with my Crystal Buzz. for forehands it depends on the shot. I can put my KC Pro Eagle close on many shots that fade left. I have an old beat up Champ Beast I can forhand good for right turning shots or high hyzer shots.

Well, if it's got a Huk Lab stamp, it will want to only spin one way.

Champ Gator, Z or FLX Drone, Z Wasp, E or S Demon, E Blaze, Q Sentinel.

Those are all overstable, because generally if I'm throwing a mid forehand then that's the type of flight I'm look for.

Out of the choices I gave, just pick the one that feels the best in your hand and comes off your fingers the nicest.

Exactly. This is why my TriFly sticker is on the right side window, otherwise my truck would just go around in circles.


For RHFH I cant offer any help, I only throw left handed.

I do however throw an upshot forehand on occasion.
I use a light Eagle X.
Best technique I have learned is the "peace sign" grip, which makes it easier to throw a straight line forehand shot with reduced power.

Just started throwing a star whippet x as a mid range , seems to work well.
Champ gator is also a good one , champ shark ?

Anyone have an opinion on the shark? I was leaning towards getting one to try.

Any time you have a question that contains the word "best" and the word "mid-range" there really is only one answer: Roc.

I can only attest to this disc working for right-handed people. It doesn't work as well for me when I throw it with my left hand.

Isn't the Roc pretty overstable?

[Parks]

The Roc is slightly overstable for a couple rounds, and then its just laser beam stable for months.

Z Drone is my go to for stable mid range forehands. The ESP Meteor for strait to turning mid shots. One of the prettiest shots in the game is a slow turning forehand with the meteor, it glides sooo smooth and can travel incredible far on the right to left path. But mostly a Z Drone, since it is so torque resistant.

[SPIDER-DAN]

I have been using an elite z wasp since i got in 2003....it was very flat. I have had pretty good success with it until recently it has not come back as fast as i wanted it to so now i use it for a slight turnover sidearm and went to the elite z drone i got from scott papa. Like 'The Whip' said.........it is torque resistant for that nice, smooth 's' sidearm shot that will come back.

[prospect]

I'm a predominately RHFH player, and I use a champ gator and a champ shark, depending on the shot. The shark will turn and then flatten out, but never really fades hard. The gator is a different animal, and when thrown hard will fly flat and fade hard, like a shorter distance whippet. I use the shark when finesse is needed, and the gator when there isn't.

I as well prefer the Zone. Because of its stability it allows you to make less mistakes.
