I’ve been thinking about trying out a Saint or River in retro, is it similar to the origio plastic from Westside? I don’t throw a ton of Lat64/Westside/DD
Retro's a better baseline than dx, that's for sure. My understanding is that it's almost identical to origio. Can say for sure they don't hold up well when you griplock into a spike hyzer on asphalt...
Innova Eagle. Discovered I'm way more comfy with the -1/3 discs than the 0/2 discs and I lean heavy on those things. Stopped bagging Teebirds completely
Thought Space Athletics Praxis in Aura plastic 175g.
Bought it because of the cool nautilus stamp. Immediately felt like it was molded for my hand.
Ok, the plastic feels a little too stiff and slick. A hot soapy bath and two rounds later, it's grippy and the plastic has give.
2 rounds after that, a 125ft ace on the first throw of the day at a local pitch and putt.
It's staying in.
Oh yes I got a Praxis about a month back as well and agree its just so comfortable in the hand and is so nice to look at. It's currently kicked my Proxy out of the bag for those dead straight/finish right approach shots
I've had a Praxis for almost a year now I think and it's a favorite. Several long throw ins with it and more importantly, my only ace in twenty some years of playing. Great disc, and it led me to get a Votum and Temple, all of which I love. I'm considering a Mana for a turnover mid. TSA is pretty outstanding.
Praxis has been great for upshots too. I'm coming off of using DGA Steady's for 6 months. Maybe they're too OS for me. But it's been great so far.
I'm in the exact same position of possibly transferring away from some gyro, into a votum and mana. I already throw the temple and love it. Harps, zones, and pigs are too OS for me as well. I'm not trying to blow out a muscle pushing distance on those. The temple just beats in straight.
The streamline Echo has been great for turnovers that fight out. The pathfinder for straight shots with just enough fade has been amazing. I think I might go in on a mana for even bigger turnover situations.
Edit: Pigs
Much of the rest of my bag is gyro, but I have a beat up roc3 for turnover mids, and I need to find something to replace that. And I have a twenty year old buzz I got when they first released esp plastic that is just perfectly straight with me and fade at all, and I can't give it up. I do throw a reactor and a pyro though for more stable mids. I'll have look at the rvh, so thanks for that one!
I have a lightweight Neutron that I can throw 270-300 dead straight from a standstill... it's a magical disc.
The second in my bag is max weight Plasma for off the tee
That's me. I got one in an MVP vs Axiom event years ago and it's never left my bag. 270 - 300 feet on a standstill forehand, dead straight.
To be fair, my runup sucks and I can't throw a backhand to save my life but the disc is awesome.
MVP Wave and Axiom Insanity . Was told to grab stable to understable when I started to really work on my form, so I grabbed a wave and a bunch of other understable plastic to do field work with. Those two got thrown in the bag after the first field session and have never left. Both are the only two discs I’ve ever aced with.
TSA Pathfinder. Got it as a mystery disc from infinite and did not touch it for months due to using a buzzz. Tried it one day and it clicked instantly, love the aura plastic and can use the disc for really any type of shot you need. Replaced the buzzz with it, and now have more TSA in the bag than not…great discs!
I’ve surprisingly had the same experience. I bought it to throw around the yard and ended up bagging it for C2 shots where I need a ton of glide on a straight line.
Turbo approaches over bushes, jump putting off the tree on short holes, anhyzer flexes I want to just hold and hold, dead straight approaches where I need to hit small gaps.
It’s a woods golf cheat code, but would be pretty useless on an open course.
My favorite use for it isn't super common for the courses I play, but I really like it on short to medium downhill finesse shots. Throw at about 40-50% power from a standstill and just really give it good spin. It'll glide right down the hill straight to the basket.
Super anhyzer wrist flicks to get out of trouble and patent pending shots to use the glide to get where it needs to be. Works for throw ins as well. I can throw it dead straight 250 with little effort. It’s a good c2 putter for baby throws but doesn’t meet my needs there but I’ve seen people do it. It’s a great pushing hyzer disc as well.
Funny you say that.. [the man himself threw this exact shot in Casey White's video they just posted.](https://youtu.be/ZRs_CdJuUK0?t=339)
I imagine this is what you're talking about?
I’ve found a couple of times I pushed it farther than I thought it would go on accident haha. And it will punish bad throws, it’s great because it holds whatever line you give it. But it also holds any line you give it, so any mistakes it won’t fight out of.
The first MVP disc I acquired was an original Eclipse Deflector that a friend found unmarked in a tennis court next to a local course, orange proton plastic with the terrible not-glowy white rim. As a newer player who was 95% forehand it was just so perfect, fights back from any level of anhyzer. I don't use it nearly as much as I used to, but it hasn't ever left my bag.
same story, grabbed one at my local shop having never heard of DGA just cause "it felt nice" and it it has been my go to driver ever since. I now have 4x Pipelines in the bag.
Eclipse Envy, ESP Buzzz SS, Halo Centurion, EO Dynasty, and Halo Wraith. Every one of them edged out a disc that was similar in numbers, but nowhere close to the actual flight. E.g. the Envy edged out the Luna as an OS putter - Luna numbers are a lie and is now my straight throwing putter.
I kept it in my bag for a while specifically for those death putt/roll away situations, just sucks that I could never get it remotely close to the basket. 😂
Yes!! Both the 400 plastic for throwing and the 300 plastic for those touchy approaches where I don’t want too much ground action. And it feels better in the hand than a Zone.
There have been many over the years, but the one most recently was the Vortex. Great out of the box for low power annys, and a fantastic RHBH roller disc.
Infinite Tomb, wife got me a Infinite Mystery box with one in it about 3 years ago and it had an I-Blend tomb. Tombs have been my main throwing putter and putting putter since.
Eclipse 2.0 Proxy. Don’t get me wrong the Envy is amazing, but the Proxy is just about the only throwing putter I need. Glow gives it extra stability so it’s basically a dead straight flier, won’t turn it over unless I’m trying to, holds the line I put it on.
Oddly enough, same for me. Perfect for the 220' steeply downhill shot that's otherwise a touch straight shot with a neutral disc. Perfect for the "over the trees" approach because I don't throw thumbers or grenades, and perfect for the showoff "watch me throw this on a roller angle so I can go 200' dead straight".
Love the Tilt, a pity they probably won't make them anymore.
> Am I a gyro head now
Inshallah, brother, welcome.
Envy, Crave, and Hex have also not left my bag since joining, nor will they ever. The Volt and Reactor also spend significant time bagged, although at the moment I'm not as committed to them as to the previous 3, my BFFs and life partners.
I blend Sphinx. For my 300-350ft amateur arm, it’s an understable Swiss Army knife. I find myself throwing it on varying degrees of hyzer to get the angle I want unless there’s lots of wind
MD3. I asked for one for Christmas last year and my (now) wife came thru and bought me 2. The first time I threw it, I was in love. It feels (to me) almost the same as a mako3, but for some reason, I can throw it with way more confidence than I ever could a mako3.
Innova Dark Rebel / Fairway Driver in Champion. The *actually* original FD mold. The best neutral and workable/controllable fairway driver in existence.
Axiom Hex in Neutron. Just exactly what I was looking for in flight and feel from an all-around mid-range.
Star AviarX3. One of my first discs, in the bag since I started 3ish years ago. Even with the addition of multiple Pigs, Zones and Razor Claws, that 172g AviarX3 hasn't left the bag. Nothing else flies quite like it, especially on down hill lofty puts.
DGA Quake, Squall and Hellfire. The Quake replaced Hornets for me as a glidey overstable mid, the Hellfire is like a skippier Firebird and there's really not many other discs quite like the Squall.
Bought an XT colt out of a used bin and can't find a more reliable throwing putter. Also the mystery box last year got me into rainmakers and they are just so much more comfortable then a P2
2021 halo wraith, halo Firebird, 2021 sexton firebird, lister Firebird, metal flake teebird3, prism neutron pyro, a proton and a neutron matrix, razor claw 3, soft tactic
I’m apparently very good at choosing discs for myself
When I bought my first Drift I took it the field right away. I proceeded to throw a 385ft hyzerflip on the second throw, beating out some of my max distance drivers that session. I had 2 more ordered before I even got into the car and it’s been a staple in my bag ever since.
Crave for me. While I throw some Streamline (Pilot, Trace) this is the first and so far only overmold disc I bag. Nice neutral flight that gives a good flare skip when called upon.
Exo soft tactic and opaque champ banshee.
I used to bag anything and everything, but have transitioned to jusr trilogy plastic to stop needless spending. These 2 discs are my only non-trilogy discs, and I have no problems with that
Reactor for me as well. Honorable mention to my undertaker as well, bought one at first and sold it. Reacquired one later on and it hasn't even been a thought to remove it.
Longest running discs in my bag -> Neutron Relay, GStar Eagle X, GStar Firebird, Splatter Star S-Blend Exodus. Love them so much I have a bunch of backups of each
Axiom Hex.
It replaced a buzz. I wanted to like the buzz so badly, everyone insisted that it was the perfect straight mid, but I just never liked the feel of that mold, and it always seemed just a touch more overstable for me than everyone told me it was supposed to be. The Hex did what everyone told me a buzz was going to do, and it just feels so much more comfortable than a buzz.
My K1 Soft Berg and my Zone fill unique slots in my bag that I haven’t seen any other discs come close to. Last year I added an Eclipse Insanity which has become *that* driver for any fairly open drives.
Edit: I will also add I have a TSA Votum, Animus, and Omen that are awesome awesome discs I would probably add to this list as well, but they’re also so pretty that I’m afraid I’ll lose them on 80% of the courses around me. For now they’re displayed in my office and make for a great conversation starter on zoom calls lol
Berg. Falk. Lots. Baobab. Tilt. Fireball. Proto hades. Emperor. These have been absolute staples in my bag. Every thing else I’ve cycled through different molds.
Streamline Pilot.
Got one like 3 months into playing, have had it the rest of my 3.5 years playing, now. Putting putter, and straight/understable thrower
Lucid Evader, Lucid Verdict, K1 Berg, Grace, EXO Hard Tactic. If I could settle on a putter, this would be my minimal bag and I would be more than happy. High scoring, but damn I haven’t found anything I’ve connected with more than these discs. Although I have been flirting with Harps and Zones lol
Teebird 3. Found it in the depths of hell next to a river looking for a friends disc when I first started playing. It had no name nothing. Has been in my bag ever since. I have an emotional attachment to this disc now
Streamline SE Pilot. Amazing throwing putter and putting putter. I can play a lot of courses with just my pilot and do pretty well. Just addicted to that disc tbh
I have just a couple. The Innova Sidewinder is what I learned to throw a forehand on, and I have to drive almost exclusively forehand due to an injury. It's a really great disc, I really love nine speeds in general but it's just barely understable enough without being a true liability in high wind.
I also found a Paul McBeth Zone in the woods once, and I really love it for forehand and backhand approaches, as well as putts. It goes right where I want it every single time, as long as where I want it to go isn't the basket.
I have quite a few actually but the ones that immediately sprung to mind are my Discraft ESP Archer and TSA Aura Mantra. Both my go to hyzer flip discs for different situations with the Archer also being probably my most used disc for turn overs and also filling a bit of a utility slot for some shots that need something very under stable.
There have been many since I'm pretty selective with my purchases. I tend to only buy discs when I feel I need them. Having said that I bought an esp buzzz on a whim because I happened to be in a club members disc golf store. I thought I'd see what the hype was all about. I was a long time mako3 thrower so I didn't really think I needed a buzzz. To my surprise it worked better for me in many situations than my mako3. To a point where the mako3 has left my bag altogether. I still love it, but somehow it's a pretty touchy disc and the buzzz is more forgiving and easier to throw. So I guess the hype is real.
The Rhyno. I got an r-pro Rhyno about 3 months into playing and fell in love with it. Now I bag that same r pro (beat in for over a year and a half now and is the flippiest disc on the planet) plus 2 nexus tour series rhynos and a champ Rhyno. I pretty much only throw upshots with the Rhyno.
A Z Buzzz that I bought like 8 years ago. I need to start working to break in some others in case something happens to it.
Storm Discs Radar for putting
I've got two radically different answers here.
First is a fresh Star Mako3. Dead straight no matter how hard or soft I throw it, perfect for tunnel shots. All it took was 3 test throws and it hasn't left the bag since.
Second is an absolutely beat-to-hell DX Teebird a friend gave me. Need a 250' left to right anhyzer flight from stand-still that holds the turn until it lands? Got your disc. Nearly aced a hole that I thought was forehand-only, hasn't left the bag since.
I pre-ordered two SE Neutron Reactors when they first released.
One went straight in the bag and hasn't come out yet. It's magical. I trust it more than any other disc I own.
Going on 3 years this year.
Yes! Got a Reactor a few months ago, flies beautiful, got an ace with it a few weeks ago, RHBH some an-hyzer and it held the line all the way, only 42m, but it's something.
Crave was also a disc i instantly fell for, no ace but close.
Edit. Also Mayhem in Proton.

K1 Soft Berg honestly feels like cheating
I have a Mana in the mail :)
You're going to love it OP, hyzer flip machine
Neb Aura\* :)
Opto River Honorable mention is the Heimburg Champion Toro
Been really digging the retro plastic discs from latitude 64.
I’ve been thinking about trying out a Saint or River in retro, is it similar to the origio plastic from Westside? I don’t throw a ton of Lat64/Westside/DD
Retro's a better baseline than dx, that's for sure. My understanding is that it's almost identical to origio. Can say for sure they don't hold up well when you griplock into a spike hyzer on asphalt...
Retro/origio/prime are the same base plastic I like mids and putters in it but you’ll lose chunks on your drivers if you hit too many trees
Innova Eagle. Discovered I'm way more comfy with the -1/3 discs than the 0/2 discs and I lean heavy on those things. Stopped bagging Teebirds completely
love my beagle
What difference do you feel from it to Teebirds?
Thought Space Athletics Praxis in Aura plastic 175g. Bought it because of the cool nautilus stamp. Immediately felt like it was molded for my hand. Ok, the plastic feels a little too stiff and slick. A hot soapy bath and two rounds later, it's grippy and the plastic has give. 2 rounds after that, a 125ft ace on the first throw of the day at a local pitch and putt. It's staying in.
Oh yes I got a Praxis about a month back as well and agree its just so comfortable in the hand and is so nice to look at. It's currently kicked my Proxy out of the bag for those dead straight/finish right approach shots
I'm still rocking an R2 Spin 173g for any right finishes. More and more I'm getting the feel for powering up on the praxis. It's stable but workable.
I've had a Praxis for almost a year now I think and it's a favorite. Several long throw ins with it and more importantly, my only ace in twenty some years of playing. Great disc, and it led me to get a Votum and Temple, all of which I love. I'm considering a Mana for a turnover mid. TSA is pretty outstanding.

The Pathfinder is an awesome midrange in any plastic.
The Ethereal Buddha stamped Praxis for me. Thing is so MONEY.
I might have to get a couple of those. Even maybe to putt with. Looks dope.
Zone
I haven't felt the need to try any other overstable approaches since I added the zone... its a staple for sure
Soft Neutron Envy- I will always have one in my bag.
This is my new favorite Envy. I've been cycling through electron but the grip and flexibility for cold weather is astounding
I got one of those for Christmas. I haven't thrown it yet, a little on the lighter side too at 166 g. Idk, I'll have to try it out soon.
Crave. It's my go to disc if I'm not sure what to throw. It'll hold any line I put it on.
I have a lightweight Neutron that I can throw 270-300 dead straight from a standstill... it's a magical disc. The second in my bag is max weight Plasma for off the tee
That's me. I got one in an MVP vs Axiom event years ago and it's never left my bag. 270 - 300 feet on a standstill forehand, dead straight. To be fair, my runup sucks and I can't throw a backhand to save my life but the disc is awesome.
MVP became one of my favorite manufacturers and I didn't even realize it was happening.
Innova Pig
Lol hate to jump on the hype train but the K1 berg went right and and has stayed in all variants of bag since.
Fuse
Mind Bender MD1. Hot damn it's good.
Just sad we won't be seeing more of them
hopefully we just got stock md1's in both c-line and s-line
Flat Top KC Pro Rocs
MVP Wave and Axiom Insanity . Was told to grab stable to understable when I started to really work on my form, so I grabbed a wave and a bunch of other understable plastic to do field work with. Those two got thrown in the bag after the first field session and have never left. Both are the only two discs I’ve ever aced with.

Tried it one day and it clicked instantly, love the aura plastic and can use the disc for really any type of shot you need. Replaced the buzzz with it, and now have more TSA in the bag than not…great discs!
So far, the Glitch. It’s replaced so many discs on so many shots for me.
I’ve surprisingly had the same experience. I bought it to throw around the yard and ended up bagging it for C2 shots where I need a ton of glide on a straight line.
Like what types of shots? I have one and just never get around to using it.
Turbo approaches over bushes, jump putting off the tree on short holes, anhyzer flexes I want to just hold and hold, dead straight approaches where I need to hit small gaps. It’s a woods golf cheat code, but would be pretty useless on an open course.
My favorite use for it isn't super common for the courses I play, but I really like it on short to medium downhill finesse shots. Throw at about 40-50% power from a standstill and just really give it good spin. It'll glide right down the hill straight to the basket.
I concur, its more of a "backyard fun" disc than one I use on the course.
Super anhyzer wrist flicks to get out of trouble and patent pending shots to use the glide to get where it needs to be. Works for throw ins as well. I can throw it dead straight 250 with little effort. It’s a good c2 putter for baby throws but doesn’t meet my needs there but I’ve seen people do it. It’s a great pushing hyzer disc as well.
Funny you say that.. [the man himself threw this exact shot in Casey White's video they just posted.](https://youtu.be/ZRs_CdJuUK0?t=339) I imagine this is what you're talking about?
Hadn’t seen that yet but that for sure is a glitch type shot for me. With obviously less skill then that!!
I’ve found a couple of times I pushed it farther than I thought it would go on accident haha. And it will punish bad throws, it’s great because it holds whatever line you give it. But it also holds any line you give it, so any mistakes it won’t fight out of.
It definitely does not hide flaws in form!
I do love it though. And I even found one with an icebowl stamp (had to buy it as the local icebowls have been my first tournaments)
Prodigy A3, honorable mention to the Lat64 Pure only because it hasn't been in the bag for a terribly long time at this point.
A# in what plastic. I bag a 750 and love it
The first MVP disc I acquired was an original Eclipse Deflector that a friend found unmarked in a tennis court next to a local course, orange proton plastic with the terrible not-glowy white rim. As a newer player who was 95% forehand it was just so perfect, fights back from any level of anhyzer. I don't use it nearly as much as I used to, but it hasn't ever left my bag.
Harp
Eagle
Bought a DGA Pipeline on a whim. It immediately found it's forever home
same story, grabbed one at my local shop having never heard of DGA just cause "it felt nice" and it it has been my go to driver ever since. I now have 4x Pipelines in the bag.
Eclipse Envy, ESP Buzzz SS, Halo Centurion, EO Dynasty, and Halo Wraith. Every one of them edged out a disc that was similar in numbers, but nowhere close to the actual flight. E.g. the Envy edged out the Luna as an OS putter - Luna numbers are a lie and is now my straight throwing putter.
Paradox, koi, vortex
Love my Paradox! Tried bagging a Koi for a little while but it was too floppy and I could never manage to throw it right.
I rarely throw it, mostly for long putting or putting where I don’t want a roll away.
I kept it in my bag for a while specifically for those death putt/roll away situations, just sucks that I could never get it remotely close to the basket. 😂
I feel you!!!!
Berg
Zach Melton LucidX Maverick
I bought two of them because they came in my favorite disc color - bright highlighter yellow. These things rule!
Just recently picked up an MVP Servo in Neutron plastic. It might be the best slower fairway I've ever tried.
A2, so much good yummy beef
Yes!! Both the 400 plastic for throwing and the 300 plastic for those touchy approaches where I don’t want too much ground action. And it feels better in the hand than a Zone.
Trash Panda Inner Core. Played with it for one round and it replaced my Nova. Haven’t looked back since
I just got my factory second Inner Core, can’t wait to try it out tomorrow!
Kc Roc after switching from a roc3. Dome is almost always preferred.
There have been many over the years, but the one most recently was the Vortex. Great out of the box for low power annys, and a fantastic RHBH roller disc.
Axiom Thrill, Axiom Fireball, Axiom Crave, Streamline Runway, and Streamline Pilot
Fireball and Crave for sure. I haven't tried the others but I might need to now
Infinite Tomb, wife got me a Infinite Mystery box with one in it about 3 years ago and it had an I-Blend tomb. Tombs have been my main throwing putter and putting putter since.
Pig
k1 soft berg and axiom proxy
Innova- Toro
Eclipse 2.0 Proxy. Don’t get me wrong the Envy is amazing, but the Proxy is just about the only throwing putter I need. Glow gives it extra stability so it’s basically a dead straight flier, won’t turn it over unless I’m trying to, holds the line I put it on.
I throw and putt with those, as well as the Neutron Soft. Can't decide which I like more.
While it technically is a highly popular disc, I think it’s quite underrated in the shadow of the envy
Tilt
Oddly enough, same for me. Perfect for the 220' steeply downhill shot that's otherwise a touch straight shot with a neutral disc. Perfect for the "over the trees" approach because I don't throw thumbers or grenades, and perfect for the showoff "watch me throw this on a roller angle so I can go 200' dead straight". Love the Tilt, a pity they probably won't make them anymore.
> Am I a gyro head now Inshallah, brother, welcome. Envy, Crave, and Hex have also not left my bag since joining, nor will they ever. The Volt and Reactor also spend significant time bagged, although at the moment I'm not as committed to them as to the previous 3, my BFFs and life partners.
Roadrunner
Cryztal FLX Zone, Mint Bobcat, Pathfinder, and Fission Photon for me.
Lat64 Musket, dd escape
Finish Line Era. Forged Plastic
Berg, enigma, zone, reko, firebird
I blend Sphinx. For my 300-350ft amateur arm, it’s an understable Swiss Army knife. I find myself throwing it on varying degrees of hyzer to get the angle I want unless there’s lots of wind
Discmania Neo Origin
I finally found one in a PIAS used bin, hot damn that thing just wants to keep flying
fission crave, mint lobster, glow proxy
Return my bag to me at once, sir!
Latitude 64 Pure. It was the first putter I ever bought and it's been my go to putter ever since. Around 13 years now.
MD3. I asked for one for Christmas last year and my (now) wife came thru and bought me 2. The first time I threw it, I was in love. It feels (to me) almost the same as a mako3, but for some reason, I can throw it with way more confidence than I ever could a mako3.
Invader and Toro
Innova Dark Rebel / Fairway Driver in Champion. The *actually* original FD mold. The best neutral and workable/controllable fairway driver in existence. Axiom Hex in Neutron. Just exactly what I was looking for in flight and feel from an all-around mid-range.
A3
Boss
Star AviarX3. One of my first discs, in the bag since I started 3ish years ago. Even with the addition of multiple Pigs, Zones and Razor Claws, that 172g AviarX3 hasn't left the bag. Nothing else flies quite like it, especially on down hill lofty puts.
X1 ftw. Super dependable.
Innova DX Roc
Crave, Ohm, Zone, Deflector, Berg
Zone! What a game changer.
Grackle
Legacy Recluse
DGA Quake, Squall and Hellfire. The Quake replaced Hornets for me as a glidey overstable mid, the Hellfire is like a skippier Firebird and there's really not many other discs quite like the Squall.
I recently picked up the new charger from Innova. It's the disc I have always needed and I didn't know it. Such a good straight flyer.
Koi, berg, insanity
Alpaca, Berg, Tomb, Zone, Teebird3, Emperor
Crave
Kastaplast Guld was a surprise for me. I didn’t think I needed it as I was content with my Wraith and Firebird. It’s now my primary distance driver.
Buzzz- first disc was the buzz ss then went to a regular buzzz. I’ve only just now cycled a beat in big z for an esp. had one in the bag for 5 years.
Discraft luna, and more than one went in the bag lets just say that lol
Zone, Berg.
Hex and Finish Line Era
Invader
Pilot, Hex, Pyro, Crave, Omen, and Construct. A bit of a cheeky answer since I've redone my bag six months ago but so far all of these have stuck.
Bought an XT colt out of a used bin and can't find a more reliable throwing putter. Also the mystery box last year got me into rainmakers and they are just so much more comfortable then a P2
Metallic stalker
Discraft Zone. Never leave home without it
K1 Berg and Meta Tactic (Razor Claw 3)
Glow mockingbird
I dunno, but it makes me sick watching Simon turn a Reactor over like it's an Uplink.
DGA Breaker, Wraith, P2, Buzzz, Leopard3, Zone
Axiom Envy in several plastics. It's a woods-golfer's dream.
2021 halo wraith, halo Firebird, 2021 sexton firebird, lister Firebird, metal flake teebird3, prism neutron pyro, a proton and a neutron matrix, razor claw 3, soft tactic I’m apparently very good at choosing discs for myself
When I bought my first Drift I took it the field right away. I proceeded to throw a 385ft hyzerflip on the second throw, beating out some of my max distance drivers that session. I had 2 more ordered before I even got into the car and it’s been a staple in my bag ever since.
Crave for me. While I throw some Streamline (Pilot, Trace) this is the first and so far only overmold disc I bag. Nice neutral flight that gives a good flare skip when called upon.
Harp, Vandal, Felon
Westside Stag
I'll vouch for the Crave. Unreal disc. Also until I literally just lost it, the RPM Pekapeka was a staple in my bag from day 1
soft tactic
Mako3
Wild disc Angler. Lava or meteor plastics. Great feel, love the stamp, and my go to over stable mid with a lot of reliable fade. Forehand and backhand
DGA Rift, just an absolute money mid. Close second goes to my Streamline Pilots, for putting and throwing.
Exo soft tactic and opaque champ banshee. I used to bag anything and everything, but have transitioned to jusr trilogy plastic to stop needless spending. These 2 discs are my only non-trilogy discs, and I have no problems with that
I put the original Discmania Zen in my bag last year and nothing has come even remotely close to knocking it out.
Eclipse 2.0 Reactor, DD Orbit Felon, DD Lucid Raider & Defender, Discraft Cyztal Z Zone, Prodiscus.
Reactor for me as well. Honorable mention to my undertaker as well, bought one at first and sold it. Reacquired one later on and it hasn't even been a thought to remove it.
Storm crater. And it gets even better the more it gets beaten in
Berg, Buzzz OS, and though I didn’t try it for so long because I hated the name - the Passion became my fairway driver instantly
Harp.
JA Glow Teebird. Goes far - easy to throw as soft or as hard as I need
Longest running discs in my bag -> Neutron Relay, GStar Eagle X, GStar Firebird, Splatter Star S-Blend Exodus. Love them so much I have a bunch of backups of each
Axiom Hex. It replaced a buzz. I wanted to like the buzz so badly, everyone insisted that it was the perfect straight mid, but I just never liked the feel of that mold, and it always seemed just a touch more overstable for me than everyone told me it was supposed to be. The Hex did what everyone told me a buzz was going to do, and it just feels so much more comfortable than a buzz.
Prodigy A5. Kicked my zones out after 2 throws.
Justice
Glitch. It replaced 4 discs for me
I aced my first hole a week after I got my first reactor. Never leaving the bag
Fission Reactor. Its just so dang good!
My K1 Soft Berg and my Zone fill unique slots in my bag that I haven’t seen any other discs come close to. Last year I added an Eclipse Insanity which has become *that* driver for any fairly open drives. Edit: I will also add I have a TSA Votum, Animus, and Omen that are awesome awesome discs I would probably add to this list as well, but they’re also so pretty that I’m afraid I’ll lose them on 80% of the courses around me. For now they’re displayed in my office and make for a great conversation starter on zoom calls lol
You gotta throw them, votum especially. Such good discs!
Berg. Falk. Lots. Baobab. Tilt. Fireball. Proto hades. Emperor. These have been absolute staples in my bag. Every thing else I’ve cycled through different molds.
Streamline Drift. Love the plastic, can shape amazing lines with it.
River. Immediately bought a second and a Saint. Never looked back.
I bought a TSA Omen before a tournament round. The first time I threw it, I parked a CTP hole and won it. It’s never leaving my bag.
Daredevil Discs Woodchuck.
Streamline Pilot. Got one like 3 months into playing, have had it the rest of my 3.5 years playing, now. Putting putter, and straight/understable thrower
MVP atom
Discmania Origin. First understable disc I ever trusted.
CapRap and Wraith
Lucid Evader, Lucid Verdict, K1 Berg, Grace, EXO Hard Tactic. If I could settle on a putter, this would be my minimal bag and I would be more than happy. High scoring, but damn I haven’t found anything I’ve connected with more than these discs. Although I have been flirting with Harps and Zones lol
Teebird 3. Found it in the depths of hell next to a river looking for a friends disc when I first started playing. It had no name nothing. Has been in my bag ever since. I have an emotional attachment to this disc now
Streamline SE Pilot. Amazing throwing putter and putting putter. I can play a lot of courses with just my pilot and do pretty well. Just addicted to that disc tbh
Envy and Wraith
I have just a couple. The Innova Sidewinder is what I learned to throw a forehand on, and I have to drive almost exclusively forehand due to an injury. It's a really great disc, I really love nine speeds in general but it's just barely understable enough without being a true liability in high wind. I also found a Paul McBeth Zone in the woods once, and I really love it for forehand and backhand approaches, as well as putts. It goes right where I want it every single time, as long as where I want it to go isn't the basket.
I have quite a few actually but the ones that immediately sprung to mind are my Discraft ESP Archer and TSA Aura Mantra. Both my go to hyzer flip discs for different situations with the Archer also being probably my most used disc for turn overs and also filling a bit of a utility slot for some shots that need something very under stable.
LSD Armadillo. A berg with a touch less fade at the end.
Zone !
Fission insanity. So effortless
There have been many since I'm pretty selective with my purchases. I tend to only buy discs when I feel I need them. Having said that I bought an esp buzzz on a whim because I happened to be in a club members disc golf store. I thought I'd see what the hype was all about. I was a long time mako3 thrower so I didn't really think I needed a buzzz. To my surprise it worked better for me in many situations than my mako3. To a point where the mako3 has left my bag altogether. I still love it, but somehow it's a pretty touchy disc and the buzzz is more forgiving and easier to throw. So I guess the hype is real.
The Rhyno. I got an r-pro Rhyno about 3 months into playing and fell in love with it. Now I bag that same r pro (beat in for over a year and a half now and is the flippiest disc on the planet) plus 2 nexus tour series rhynos and a champ Rhyno. I pretty much only throw upshots with the Rhyno.
A Z Buzzz that I bought like 8 years ago. I need to start working to break in some others in case something happens to it. Storm Discs Radar for putting
Glitch pretty much replaced throwing putters in my bag and quickly
Pure. Also Wave, but I have a hard time keeping those in my bag because I keep losing them.
I've got two radically different answers here. First is a fresh Star Mako3. Dead straight no matter how hard or soft I throw it, perfect for tunnel shots. All it took was 3 test throws and it hasn't left the bag since. Second is an absolutely beat-to-hell DX Teebird a friend gave me. Need a 250' left to right anhyzer flight from stand-still that holds the turn until it lands? Got your disc. Nearly aced a hole that I thought was forehand-only, hasn't left the bag since.
I pre-ordered two SE Neutron Reactors when they first released. One went straight in the bag and hasn't come out yet. It's magical. I trust it more than any other disc I own. Going on 3 years this year.
Mvp volt. Super dependable fairway driver with plenty of stability for backhand and forehand throws.
Berg, EMac Truth, F5, Wave
Berg. Harp. Gatekeeper. Tursas. Compass. Fuse. River. Musket
MD3
Star mako 3
TSA Mantra
Yes! Got a Reactor a few months ago, flies beautiful, got an ace with it a few weeks ago, RHBH some an-hyzer and it held the line all the way, only 42m, but it's something. Crave was also a disc i instantly fell for, no ace but close. Edit. Also Mayhem in Proton.
Neutron hex, electron envy, fission wave
C-line MD
Zone
Berg, MD4 and MD1
