I ordered 50 Pro Wraiths.  I've sold 15 so far.  They have not shown up yet.  I should have some Pro Wraiths.  If you have any spare brass, you can get a pro Wraith from me at USADGC.  I take Federal Reserve Notes also.

I am going to get another pile of Pro Wraiths for IOS #7 and I'll freshen up my Innova stock.  If there is no outcry for Discraft, I'm going into the last one Discraft-lite.  This could be your last chance to get a special order in this year.  Ordering on Monday...

If you've played Golo, and were thinking about getting your own Golo game set, hold off until IOS #7 and you'll be able to buy a Golo game for brass.  I think.  "Jimmy" is supposed to set me up, but I'm waiting for a call back.

I could use a couple of Champ Beasts.  Preferrably orange.  Or red.

Bruce,
   Can I make a trade with you. I have several new Innova Champion Discs. I'm looking for the Clear Champion Orcs 172 & higher. Let me know.

I don't think I have any of those clear Orcs left but I'll check with the factory on Monday.

I met Jimmy's boy Adam in a parking lot and we did a Golo deal.  They want to talk about a bigger deal.  They have a thing with the PGA where the PGA pays them money to go to tournaments to provide evening games and entertainment for the people at the banquet.  I told him we did not have that kind of operation.  Same number of players but divide the number of spectators by 1000 and subtract ten.  Adam said that they still might be able to figure out something that would work for them and work for us.  Adam wants me to meet Jimmy.  Adam mentioned sponsorship for our series before I said a word.  I'll go to the meeting with Jimmy and listen.

Meeting Adam was funny.  He forgot to tell me what he looked like.  I forgot to tell him what i looked like.  We were meeting at an expensive athletic club and conference facility.  I was wearing my suit and tie.  I was walking up to the building and a guy comes walking up quickly, "Good.  You're finally here!  You're here on the Windemere presentation, right?"  "No, I'm here for the Golo meeting."  "The Golo meeting?!"  "It came up kind of sudden.  We aren't on your list."  So I walk a little further and the parking valet comes up to me.  He's dressed nicer than I am.  "Are you Tommy?" he asks.  "No.  I'm Bruce.  So I'm guessing you aren't the Golo guy?"  "No, I'm the parking lot attendant.  Who's the Golo guy?"  "I'm supposed to meet the Golo guy here so is it o.k if I sit down and chill out."  "No problem.  What do you got going on?"  "I sell frisbees.  He sells games.  I'm expanding my product line."  "Cool."  When Adam arrived he was wearing a Golo polo.  

Brett they have this really cool Golo board made of thick stained wood and it has a leather surface for the dice.  They put a trophy tag on it for Golo tournaments and award it to the winner.  Really cool and you could use it for any dice game.  Kind of an elegant coffee table item.

The clear orcs are a little more overstable, right?  The only one I really throw right now is clear but I didnt notice a huge difference with my opaque one.  Cant wait for the SB's to come out.

Special Blend.  Like the opaque Blue and Red CE Rocs from this year.  It feels just like the early runs of CE, durable and grippy.

I've found the clear orcs are much more stable than my older orcs.

Brett, we've noticed the same thing with the light purple colored Orcs with the silver lettering.  For some reason they are beefy bitches.

Bruce Brakel

I asked for a few clear Orcs.  He said he would look.  

I'm also getting a very limited quantity of the pumpkin stamped discs in Champ Beasts, Orcs, DX Rocs and something else.

Oh, I'm also getting some Champion Classic Rocs.  They are no longer CFR.  Even I can get them now.

I find the opposite, I'm not sure which older orcs you were throwing.  But for me the more opaquish,  (is that a word? well it is now!) sometimes swirled ones are way more overstable than the clear.  But then again I'm a big weirdo, so take what I said with a grain o' salt.

Someone was asking about this on the PDGA forums.  Dave Dunipace said that whether it is clear or not is just a result of which coloring or weighting agent was used.  What is gonna make it overstable or not is wether it is harder plastic or the gummier stuff.  In my experience more of the clear ones tend to be hard and more of the opaque ones tend to be gummier and a little more floppy.  I throw a clear champion orc and its very hard compared to some of the ones i see people throwing.

the ones i'm reffering to seem thicker than other orcs.
