Please post what discs you have in your bag. I'd like to get some statistical data.
I just want to know what discs you have in your current bag. For me I carry 20 discs but have 4 Rocs & 4 putters so I won't list a Roc or Aviar 4 times.

I think if you carry more than one of the same mold you should put the number after it.

Discraft 5(9) Innova 2
Will be adding an overstable driver, but auditions are not until March.

This year I will figure out which ones I really use and will likely have more of less of them.
I think there is only one world champion who is a member of Discontinuum. This is what is in the champ's bag:
150 Z Flick
150 Z Talon
150 Z T-Bird
150 DX Firebird
150 UV Wildcat
Z Buzzz
Z Breeze

Sometimes the Talon or Firebird stay in the car.

Have messed around with all of the other disc companies
but in the end Innova is the Best. 100% innova right now
I usually carry around 19 but I keep trying to cut it down. Carry a few less in the snow anyhow,
leaving out discs I really don't wanna lose.

150 Flick
174 & 168 Sidewinder (the 168 is clear and I don't use it in the snow)
168 Flash til I lost it in the snow even though I saw where it landed; replacement isn't working out yet, even though it's the same weight
168 Crush ; 172 when most of my tendons are behaving
172+ Pro Starfire
172-4 DX and/or 150 Champ. Valkyrie (150 for 'special conditions', high winds not being one of them)
166 & 154 Champ Orc - if I carry both I'll take something else out
166 &/or 150 Z- and/or 172ish X-Talon
171 Pro Wraith occasionally (still getting used to it)
168ish? Cyclone (very beat)

That is only 10 disc total.... don't really understand why someone would want to haul around more then 12-14.. Just a waste of energy to me... less discs, less thought as what to throw. As for backups, I keep them in the car..

Once someone learns to play competitively, they will be more consistent by learning fewer molds but learning them well. For me, with the amount of practice that I put in (or don't), it is easier to throw the disc that will tend to the turn and glide that I want to do with that shot, rather than learn how to do a variety of effects with one mold. I would throw the 150 Flick for almost all of my drives except that it doesn't play as well in the wind as some of my other drivers. I throw so many different kinds of junk shots with the midranges that I carry that I really need a few to choose from. Angle, speed of release, upside or downside orientation all have an effect on what window I can use to get out of trouble. Once I figure that out then I have to select the mold that will get me closest to the basket thru that window.
As far as the number of discs carried, some people have excess energy (not me) that they want to spend. When I use a cart I take backups with me since I'm not carrying them. When I carry the bag the backups stay in the car.

So YOU'RE the one! I figured out today that last year I bought 75% Innova, 22.5% Discraft and 2.5% other for the IOS players. I spent $20,000 on discs last year. :o Unfortunately, I still have to pay sales tax on the Innova. :'(

I guess I justify hauling all those extra discs as a form of exercise... there are times though, even during a good round, where I'll find that I've thrown nearly everything in the bag/cart at least once, although there probably wouldn't have been much difference if I'd thrown only a half-dozen. I might try cutting way down for 'real' rounds this year as it can't possibly be much worse than some of my rounds in 05. B)

* I said this PRIOR to being on Team Discraft * : "Unless you are being paid (sponsored) by a specific company to throw their discs, you are only CHEATING yourself".
I'm not being cocky but I think I'm the highest rated person that is going to post to this thread (at least as of right now). Am I the highest rated because I throw Discraft? - Heck NO. I'm the highest rated because I get the job done with a given disc - please learn ONE thing - it doesn't matter which discs you throw. "It's the Indian NOT the arrow"
Please don't jump all over me for my thoughts - I'm just trying to shed a little light on a very Innova biased area.
In the (Discraft Tour) bag: (13 Discs)
D Challenger (3) - I putt with just one and the other 2 are for warming up.
X Comet (3) - One of the most under-rated discs on the planet.
X Buzz
Z Buzz (2)
Z Wildcat
Z Crush (3)
Terry "Discraft" Miller
PDGA 10738
I have to agree with Terry on this one. I would never have realized how great of a disc the Pro Challenger is if I threw only Innova.
I feel that Innova and to a smaller exent the other companies are flooding the market. There is no time to learn a new disc before the next latest and greatest come out.
The only disc I don't have confidence in replacing is my Champion Orc. Other than that every disc is replacable. Oh maybe not my baby blue CE Valk too :tshirt:
i'm wondering how many players out there are actually biased to the point that they will ONLY throw Innova?
all my discs are innova, but i haven't even been playing six months, and all my discs is all four. it's what they had at sports authority. :-\

Was curious to see what molds were most popular. If the club was to carry one giant bag, here's what would be in it (only listed discs with 5 or more carried by people who posted, counted all multiples when people carried more than one of a mold, and didn't divide by type of plastic as not everyone listed):
Drivers:
30 Orcs
20 Firebirds
18 T-birds
17 Wraiths
14 Sidewinders
13 Valks
12 Crush
11 Eagles
11 Flicks
10 Beasts
10 Leopards
9 Viking
9 Starfire
7 Avengers
7 Flash
5 Monsters
5 Banshees
5 Whippits
Innova - 176 - 83%
Discraft - 37 - 17%
Mids:
39 Rocs
17 Buzz
9 Wasps
5 Gators
5 Coyotes
Innova - 49 - 78%
Discraft - 14 - 22%
Putt and Approach:
35 Aviars
8 Rhynos
7 Challengers
6 Wizards
5 APX Swirls
5 Jujus
Innova - 43 - 64%
Discraft - 13 - 19%
Gateway - 6 - 9%
Ching - 5 - 8%
343 total discs in that bag, can I get a caddy???
A couple of observations:
1 Why so many drivers an so few mids and putters?
2 Innova is a lot more popular than at first glance for discs people actually carry and use.
3 Looks like I really only need to carry a couple of orcs, rocs, and aviars.
4 I have way too much time on my hands. :icon_eek:
Answer to question 1 is easy. The disc companies make a ton more different drivers than they do different mids and putters.
I imagine they do this cuz the range of drivers is much greater than the range of putters and mids with relation to speed and stability (and high speed turn Neal). Most people only carry 1 or 2 different mids and putters, but carry atleast 4 different drivers.
Yes u do need an Orc :D
Here's my current bag, although I'm still new and trying out a bunch of discs I recently purchased...
Drivers:
CE Beast 174g
CE Valkyrie 171g
Z XPress (?g) - have a sidewinder and roadrunner on the way to try out how those will do in comparison
DX Dragon 150g (for days that I still feel like a newb)
DX Orc 168g (I think). I haven't thrown this one yet.
Z XS (?g) - just testing out this disc. That and the Elite Z-Avenger.
Mid Range:
Pro-D Hawk
Pro Line Cobra 175g
KC Pro Roc (I think it's KC... too lazy to go get my bag and check)
Putters:
DX Aero 174g
DX Rhyno 175g
DX Aviar P&A 168g
Innova 9/12 - 75%
Discraft 3/12 - 25%
I have a whole bunch of new ones on the way to check out, including a Star Wraith, CE Roadrunner, CE Sidewinder, CE Rhyno, Challengers, Sabers, Wizards, and all sorts of other interesting stuff :)
Scott
well, my PDGA stuff came in today. so that was pretty cool. they're giving elite X storm. i don't know if i'll be using it much, but it feels pretty good, so it'll probably be added to my current arsenal of five...
orc? what is the deal with the orc, ive never thrown one, but ive heard such great things, is it really overstable? let me know
No, the Orc is not really overstable. It is a high speed disc that I feel I can make alot of different shots with. It is my primary driver.
I dont know about really overstable but it does have good speed and a nice predictable fade.

Great poll. I'm surprised by the overwhelming majority for Innova. I've always favored Discraft (especially for drivers), but I feel like everyone ends up with a Roc and an Aviar in their bag. And I love the XD.

I like the Orc because it is somewhat stable. I've found in moderate wind (15mph & under) it's still predictable. It is fast and has great glide. It is my main distance/control driver. I find I can throw a Wraith a tad farther but have way more control over the Orc.
Brett,
Weight and plastic suggestions for the Orc?

My 2 primary Orcs are 171/172. I have a 164 for long anhyzer shots.
