always:
172 Star or 10x KC Teebird (not the longest, but easily the most dependable)
167 & 175 Champion Sidewinder
165 Champ Firebird
170ish Stratus
2 - 168 DX Roc (beat/not beat)
175 Wizard
174 Champ Aviar
172 Z-Wasp and/or 170 Star Cro

Usually:
168 Crush
165 Champ Orc
166 Z-Talon (longest, but not wind-friendly)
172ish 10x or 11x KC Banshee
172 Star Teerex
171 Star Wraith and/or 174 Starfire
175 SE Rhyno (when it gets warmer... my most comfortable putter/approach; I just don't want 'em to crack in the cold since they're nearly extinct, and I only have 2.)
168 Flash (when it gets drier... backhand roller; more dependable for me than Sidewinders, for some reason)
175 DX Firebird (when it gets drier... forehand roller, although I was getting good results
w/ a previous Teerex until I flicked it into Lemon Lake last fall; its replacement doesn't work as well)

sometimes:
168-170 Pro/Champ Beast
175 DX Banshee
171 Comet (I've had this for years and had hardly ever thrown it til lately, and I'm liking it)
172 Predator
150 Z-Flick (1st run)
155 Champ Orc
175 Bulldog (losing faith in that sucker though; if you hit the rim of the basket it will roll forrrreverrrrr......)
172ish DX Valkyrie
170ish Coyote (kinda dropped that this past year in favor of the Cro... really shouldn't have a Coyote in the bag w/o a Roadrunner anyhow.)

These are mixed & matched based on weather, wind, my mood (usually dark) and the color scheme of that day's wardrobe.... I usually wind up w/ 19 discs in the bag, which is way too many; I'd like to cut it down to at most 12, but it hasn't happened yet, and carrying the extra discs is good exercise.

Trying out...
169 Star Destroyer
174 Avenger SS
170ish Z-MRV that I've dug out of storage - better than I remembered it...
165 10x KC Teebird (curiously overstable; the Altoids of discs)

The way the winter's been going, I haven't thrown anything all that consistently, so all of this could change.
thanks,

If that doesn't work out for you, let me know :mellow:
Vibram Disc Golf, Ledgestone Insurance, Paragon and Whirld Sports are all cool. Real cool.

I agree with the Meteor and Comet comments. The Meteor will hold a nice line wherever you place it. I think the Comet tends to fade a little more for me than the Meteor. Either way, I usually one of the two in the bag at any given time. Right now it's the Comet.

My bag is so consistently inconsistent that I will post when I have a better idea. Here's the most current:

Star Destroyer
Champion Beast
ESP Surge
ESP Avenger SS
FLX Buzzz
X Comet
D Challenger
X Soft Challenger

(There's usually a Flick, another Buzzz and a more overstable mid)

Oh, it'll work  ;) it's just different from the other 10x KCs I have, and since it's white (like most of the rest of them), I haven't had it out much this winter. It really is overstable though, unlike the others, and weird since it's the lightest of the bunch.

I've got a couple of 11xs I'll let go though.  :D
