PDGA membership discs?

[TYVEK]

howdy all, i have tried doing some reserch online with only a little success and was hoping somebody here could help me.

I am looking for a list of all the Black membership discs that the PDGA gives out to new members. trying to find out how many years they have giving the black discs out and how many different molds have been given out in those years. bottom line is that i am interested in trying to make a collection of all the Black PDGA discs if i can.

thanks for your help.

For a long time the Discraft Stratus in X plastic was the PDGA member disc that is what I received in 2002. Later it was a ESP Stratus, that was sort of unique because the Stratus was not a regular production in ESP plastic. The membership disc has also been an ESP Storm. Currently I believe it is the ESP Stalker Happy hunting!

Just to add another to the list, I received a Quarter K II when I signed up in late 2010 I think.

My daughter got a white/pink swirled Cheetah (I think) in '00

I wonder what kind of Frisbee #163 received?
A lot of my old softball team joined in the late 80's, early 90's and received Lightning discs such as, Bearcat's, Rubber Putter mold, (A-6 Texan I think) and of course the P-38 which is what I got for $15 back in 1988. I've seen lots of black Storms and Stratus.

#36735 - Black ESP Storm(or was it a Stratus)

My friend Jeff K's #5469 disc(late 80's) is an orange Bearcat with only his name and # hot-stamped on the center of the disc. It's unmarked, other than the F8F on the under side.

I am #37977 and got a stratus.

I'm 48575 and I got the worst disc ever given away by the PDGA. Shockline Quarter K II. Thing is absolute garbage. I bought my buddy Casey his membership and he got the disc I wanted (ESP Stalker). Talk about shit luck

I checked my stash and they are A-T-6 TEXAN aka Rubber Putter.
Andrew Rich (Pure Disc Golf) may have some. I'm pretty sure he got a whole stack of airplane discs from Vargas years ago.
Personally I didn't start collecting discs to sell/trade later (dumbass me), but I have been know to give away some tasty stuff if the vibes are good and they get used.
