Not what I was saying at all. I was saying that my game isn't the greatest & if I pulled out a knife every time I get beat, either a lot of people would be hurt or I'd be someone's b*tch in jail. Plus, I'm short & my reach is about 2', kinda like a T-rex, but not as scary.  ::)

Anywho, you're rated higher right now....

Last off topic post, I swear.  (at least in this thread)

I knew what you meant.  Just takin the opportunity to bash my stellar DG abilities. 

Anyway, my rating is based on only one tourney and if I continue to play like I have been lately, it's headin down fast.

Now back to our regularly scheduled program...
"Don't throw the disc.  Let the disc throw you."

In an attempt to make amends for my egregious violation of the basic principals of message board etiquette, I will post on topic.  I'm not all that good, so I didn't figure anyone would care what's in my bag, but here you go:

Champ Valkyrie (175, brand new) for long straight drives
Champ Valkyrie (170, slightly beat up) for big S drives or big turnover shots, tailwind
DX Valkyrie (175, beat to hell) throw straight, turns over and never comes back. Max anhyzer D
Champ Orc (175) Long and straight with a fade or mild wind
Elite X Avenger (170) Big S drive when new, big turnover disc when broken in
DX Wraith (175, brand new) Headwind straight or hyzer
DX Firebird (?)  Strong headwind drives
KC Pro Gazelle (175?) Very straight with predictable fade.  More precise, not as long as the Valk
KC Pro TeeBird (175) Just found this and haven't figured out if it fits in my bag or not.  Straighter than the Valk (obviously), and more glide, sometimes longer too.
LS Polaris (173?) straight when new, then really flippy.  Only use for mid distance forehand drives

KC Pro Roc (175, mid beat) basically all drives under 275 that are straight, or dogleg left shorter holes and for approaching
DX Glow Roc (175, beat) turnover or sometimes approach
Champ USDGC Roc (179) for when the wind turns over my KC Pro Roc
Flx Buzz (17?)  still figuring out where/if it fits in my bag.  Longer than the Roc and really straight
DX Stingray (175, beat to hell) Roller, approach forehand, short/lots of turnover

Champ and DX Aviar (175) for putting. Haven't made up my mind yet.
Elite X Storm (173?) putting in med-strong headwind.  Ok, that's bizarre, but it seems to work for me.

And a few others I just screw around with, but which don't seem to fit anywhere.  I'm still figuring out what I like, so this is a strange, failry incoherent mishmash of discs.

And obviously I'm not a very powerful thrower.  I tend toward understable stuff as it goes pretty straight for me.  And my forehand is really weak, so I use really understable stuff (and very rarely throw forehand).  My point being that most good players probably wouldn't use these discs the way I do.

Sorry to be so long winded.

I had a chance to throw in a field the other day as well as play today and the surge and rogue combo are definately going in the bag at this point!

Discs fly differently for different folks, but I cannot get over how long and straight the Rogue is.  I want to throw the FLX Surge tomorrow.
