good for me.

I always used s.s. avengers before but the vision tends to stand up for longer before finally turning over. Still have both in my bag for now.

I mainly just use the Av SS for nice long anny's. I'm not so good at rollers.

I gotta new Z Nuke. Never had one before.
Best outta the box forehand driver I have thrown so far.
Lurvs it, made a spot in the bag for it.

Also a 159 gram X out R-Pro Boss that was calling my name at PIAS, only becuase it was cheap and new.
It's not like any of my other R-Pro Boss's, it has no dome, like a Star Boss, and its very stable, not at all flippy like the others.

This is the only R-Pro Boss I have been able to throw FH without the instyflip.
I hope it breaks in though, I bought it for BH hyzerflip duty, and it aint doin that now.

Got a mini juju today

I ordered a Latitude 64 Flow last week. Of course, I probably won't throw it until February...

I recently bought a 168g Champion Rhyno in a wonderful day-glo green color. I picked it up in the store and thought to myself... I have to have this disc now, I was also supprised by how gummy it was for champ plastic. Well after playing a few rounds and having a couple of practice sessions, I am not disappointed with the purchase. I use it as a risky approach disc as it is very slow and sticks when it lands, which is great for those times where you don’t want to go past a basket and (for me anyway) is most always finishes left.

got a few hurricanes and nebulas, the hurricanes are the best, am very surprised that these arent selling like hot cakes. These fly straighter and less fade than a destroyer, which means easier control

How does the Hurricane compare to the DGA Rogue?

You have Nebulas? PM sent.

I just ordered a production Run and a Proto stamp Wahoo from DiscGolfValues.com... WAHOO.

One's for showin' and one's for throwin'

dcnewt2 · #52 December 7th, 2010, 10:07 AM

I have a wahoo on it's way too! Looks like a beast that has water wings on to me! I can't wait to give it a toss!

Uhlman · #53 December 7th, 2010, 10:17 AM

This is the first disc I have ordered on it's release date without thorough research. I am hoping its everything I want it to be. The only thing I am concerned about is the fact it’s r-pro and will not have the long-range durability to use it as my primary driver (if I like it). Hopefully they will make it in other more durable plastics down the road.

dcnewt2 · #54 December 7th, 2010, 11:22 AM

I think the choice of r-pro has more to do with making the disc a 169g floater than anything else. And yep, I hope it holds up well to, but for me it should be more of a specialty, keep my mind off the H2O disc. With those numbers though, It is right in the wheel house to be a primary driver for a lot of folks. And Actually, now that I think about it, maybe it is more of a cross between my beast, my wraith, and my rubber ducky! ;-)

I get to try my brand new Z Force in the morning!!! I've had it for a week, just sitting there...waiting....staring at me...begging to go play...

Sean Johnson · #56 December 10th, 2010, 10:52 PM

I'm pretty sure that the Hurricane was originally developed as a Force "SS." Whether or not that's accurate, it is a higher speed driver than the Rogue and will probably take a fair amount of power to throw properly.

definitely more stable. Think a mix of destroyer and rogue... It does flip and turn on big arms. It flies real nice on a soft hyzer. Maybe kind of a longer teebird? The one that got me hooked is a 169 which was just dyed and is on the way back to me. Picked up a 172 and 173 and will compare the 3. I don't like the SP rogues but the first flight rogues fly more consistent for me.

Kris C · #58 December 11th, 2010, 05:19 PM

So the Force is an awesome forehand driver! Faster and a touch more stable than the Flick. I added around 50 ft to my drive today! It can only get better!

General Scales · #59 December 11th, 2010, 11:53 PM

The Flick is more stable than any Force. I can assure you that it's a true statement.

Kris C · #60 December 12th, 2010, 09:18 AM

I know the Flick is 2.5 and the Force is 2.0, but it seems to me that I could put a little more hyzer on the Force than the Flick and it would level out. Maybe it's because the Force is a faster disc, or maybe it's the way I throw... Either way, the Force ended up being a better driver for me.
