Funny enough it was a pink disc, A Katana to be exact. Me, being completely new to disc golf when I bought it saw "high speed distance driver" and thought dang, it must go far and fast, I'll buy it. I quickly learned that I could not muster up the proper arm speed or form to throw it without it dumping out to the left almost immediately. After that I did my research and bought many other discs and started to improve over time. A month or so ago I picked it up again and put it in my bag. I think it's my farthest driver next to my destroyer now.
Pro Wraith. After the first field session with this one it was too much for my noodle arm. I put all discs 10 speed and up away for a couple months. Now that wraith is my go to driver. It’s also beating in nicely which is helping.
Which color did better though? We need answers!
Pink: +2 after 18. Blue: +6 after 18.
This seems like pink gang propaganda to me, I demand an independent non-biased investigation!
Started playing when I was in college. Some friends and I went to MC Sports in town and all randomly bought discs that we thought looked or sounded cool. My first disc was a 11x Climo Champion Eagle. Knowing nothing about discs at all, I had purchased a disc that for a beginner was playing very overstable. I hated it, and so I bought other discs and didn't really ever throw it. I played sporadically for the next few years then stopped. This year I started playing seriously again thanks to my brother, and being bored out of my mind. Being over a decade older and wanting to actually understand the game this time around, I practiced and researched more. That eagle is now my favorite disc and throw it more than any other, except for putters.
Just started playing a year or so ago, all forehand thrower, and just threw my first all backhand round this weekend. I was outdriving my forehand nukes with my backhand judges. My mind was blown. But needless to say my entire bacmg has to be altered now...just a good reason to buy more discs.
Well I've been looking for more reasons to buy discs. Funny thing is back when I started I threw almost all forehand, now I don't have any forehand to speak of. It's one of my goals to develop one again, but I've been putting all my efforts into working on my backhand consistency.
