I have been throwing Backhand and Forehand at consistent distances of 350-380ft this spring.

I have some over lap with the XXX and Pred. but they serve different purposes in my bag and are truly different discs. The XXX is for all sorts of trick shots, where the Pred. is my reliable Hyzer and forehand driver. The Z Wasp is my poor mans Champ Roc. The XL serves as a disc I use when I have little room for reaching back, such as being in the brush or against some trees. PDs are my Distance Drivers and the Cyclone is my disc of choice for wooded fairways.

a lot of people will call Overlap with your Pred in there. I disagree, I feel like the xXx is way too overstable to be useful at anything other than utility shots. the Pred is more of a distance OS disc. I agree about the z-wasp being the poor man's champ roc.

your bag looks good.

[SirRaph]

I agree, that's a sexy bag.

I am curious what you use for long turnovers. I'd use that Cyclone for that shot, but since you're using it for tight fairways, I'm guessing you're hyzer flipping it? I've never thrown an ESP 'clone, so maybe it's more stable than my X plastics are.

[colombo117]

ESP clones are more stable than their X counterparts. But they are not like the Z ones. They are a great disc if you want your clones to stay stable longer. I use the cyclone and the P-PD for tunover shots. Both are very controllable, but the PD is longer. I just got it from a friend a few weeks ago and I like it a lot.

I should add that I have been throwing more forehand also. So that is why I don't have a truly understable disc. I also like to force stable discs to turn over as oppose to having understable discs flip naturally.

Added a beat comet in a mystery plastic, probably X and a DX leopard. Both fill the anhyzer roll I was lacking. Thanks Sir Ralph.

I have been throwing this bag for most of Fall and it is working out really well. As the snow starts to fall I will be changing it again, but next spring and summer this is what I think I will be throwing. Liking the Avengers a lot.

[colombo117]

I am simplifying my bag for the new season. I am trying some JLSs that I just got in a trade and I am really liking how easy they go straight and how I can turn them a bit.
I throw both forehand and backhand so most shots are covered.
