An Efficient Killer - The Pred Thread

Except the early run x preds. Those were definitely the old mold.

Except first run preds. Those were definitely the old mold.

Just curious, of the newer predator runs has any particular color been more stable than others? I've thrown pink and green in the new plastic, each with a moderate dome to them and they've been decent for the most part, but not quite as stable as I'd like (and not near as stable as the older flat predators).

I have a couple of new opaque green flat Z preds that are among the most stable ones I own. They are both also only 165. They both have a very high parting line.

I have a pretty new red 172g Z that is really flat and extremely overstable. I've been trying to browse the stock of the local dg store, but I haven't found another one like it (they don't have any more red ones sadly).

Here's a PLH comparison to my couple of years old orange Z which has some dome on it:

I've been thinking about getting some Preds to replace my 1st run cfr pds. Wish I could get the old ones easily.

[Frank Delicious]

They are really not that hard to get a hold of. You just gotta look a bit.

Also the new ones actually throw more like the CFR PDs to me as they are a bit straighter and have better forward finish.

[dgdave]

So I got in a Z and ESP predators today and I just have one question... Why the hell do I stop throwing these every time I put them back in the bag?

[Frank Delicious]

I dunno

[dgdave]

Dunno either. I aced this morning with one on the second round with them back.

[chainsmoker]

It sounds crazy but I've been throwing Z Predators for so long that I think I am missing out on something else. I'll put a new disc in the Z Pred spot for awhile and when I come back to the Pred I'm always thinking why did I quit throwing the Predator. I've had the same problem with Tbirds, Rocs, and Wizards at various times.

[Frank Delicious]

I've done that with preds a few times since I've been throwing them for years. Nothing ever sticks in the spot though.

[cfair]

and why don't preds?

[Frank Delicious]

sorry that was a badly phrased post. The preds have been in the bag forever. Things like firebirds and xXxs come and go.

[vtbuzzz]

My preds are my most dependable disc, I totally trust it to do what I intended to do with it.
