Innova Blizzard Plastic

[Sr.]

I still have not thrown one of these things. I am picking up a 150 Katana this weekend at the Iron Leaf.  I have already communicated with Patrick. I have thrown a 159 Orc that I somehow got from Jon a couple years ago with pretty good success.  However, I have only used it downwind on open holes. Am I correct in assuming the blizzard discs ought to do better than other 150 class discs with windy conditions?

Lighter than 150 (if they have any) will be better David. I have a 134 Destroyer that flies forever. I hear 140s are good too.

I threw my poppy top Blizard Boss today in a headwind and it held up well.  They fly so far with little effort.  The one I have is more stable than my beat blue SDS Destroyer. Crazy.

The Blizzard plastic does beat in faster than Champion.  I've noticed this with Diana's TeeDevil.

Threw my first Blizzard disc today.  150 Blizzard Destroyer, I am really surprised at hoe stable they are.  I was able to FH them with no problem.  Seems like it will be awesome with a tailwind too.

I picked up a 150 Katana at the Iron Leaf.  I threw it a couple of times at the tournament.  On 13 at Mokena I was able to throw a putter to the basket from my tee shot.  I had never gone that far.  Today I got a chance to really check it out at Fink. I threw the Katana on 1,5,6,7,8 and 9.  The difference was not huge but it was consistent and measurable.  I normally drive 225-250 with rare drives that are shorter or longer.  With the 150 Katana I was 240-275 and pretty consistently at 250.  it flew on a line with a small fade, sort of like a slider rather than a curveball, regardless of being thrown with the wind, into it or across it. On 7 I still don't get to the walking path but was about 20 feet away.  I was mostly throwing putters to the basket on most shots wherer I had teed off with the Katana. This is not always the case with me. I  think its going to be my go to stable driver rather than a 167 Orc.

Kelsey won in Men's Intermediate at the Southern Michigan Open this past weekend and the Blizzard plastic made the difference.  The Ponds has a lot of long open holes where big arms normally would get an advantage on her.  She had birdies on 400 foot holes at the Ponds after throwing 400 foot drives basket long.  Practicing on a field today she was consistently throwing TeeDevils 330 to 360 feet into the wind and 360 to 390 with the wind. 

We have a collection of 25 Blizzard discs now in a variety of weights and molds.  What we are finding is that all of the wide wing drivers, Boss, Destroyer, TeeDevil and Katana, fly pretty much the same except the Katanas are a little understable.  If you like understable plastic go with the discs in the 130s.  The 150 drivers are a mix.  If you like overstable look for the 157s and 158s and stay away from the Katanas and Wraiths.  I have a 157 Katana that is stable now, but it will beat in to flippy.  They can be broken in quickly by throwing them into the turf if you want to accelerate the seasoning process. 

These discs fly so much farther for Kelsey and me that it is putting the fun back into field practice.  Whenever you can bomb from the back of the end zone to the back of the far end zone, the joggers and ball players start pointing and watching.
