Discs to trade for PDs and Glow Wizards

[andrew]

Some great discs:

Innova Blizzard Destroyer 8.5/10: field tested only. teal w/ black stock stamp, no ink. Scale weight 151g.

Discmania Glow C-PD 10/10: Unthrown. Green bear European Open CFR stamp, no ink. Scale weight 172g.

Millennium Q-Mega 7.5/10: Green w/ somewhat faded gold stock “appoved” stamp, no ink. Scale weight 167g. Some cosmetic scrapes, no dings. this is awesome, grippy CE plastic that when held up to light has subtle darker green swirls in it.

Latitude 64 Goldline River 7.5/10: shiny baby blue w/ stock stamp, ink on inner rim (there are three tiny but weird dot-like marks on the face, typical for Goldline, that were there when purchased). Scale weight 169g.

Innova EagleX 7/10: blue w/ purple stock stamp, minor scrapes, dings. ink on inner rim. Scale weight 168g.

Innova Star Destroyer 6/10: In other words, perfectly broken in thrower. Used to be light pink but top ink wiped and dyed purple with rough handcut Star Wars Star Destroyer. Really nice grip/inward curved inner rim (can we call it minus?). Inked on back. Scale weight 170g.

Latitude 64 Goldline Striker 6.5/10. Yellow with red old stock stamp. Light ink on inner rim. Scale weight 172/173g (my scale fluxuates between the two).


Want (willing to pay for these as well):
1. New to beat S-PDs or P-PDs in weights 157-163g, especially orange. Not firm or plus molds!

2. Unstamped Glow Wizards 171-172g of what they'd call soft.

3. Orange Opto Fuses 172-175g

4. Orange Champion Teebirds 167-169g

5. Anything else in my sig, especially orange or glow.

Otherwise, paypal. Make me an offer!

I sold quite a few EP XLs in that weight range not too long ago. I may heave a few left but I can't promise anything. you want any TP Cyclones? I got some of those left too.

[andrew]

Thanks for checking on the XLs. Thanks also for the Cyclone offer but I'll pass on those. Any shot I'd use a Cyclone I use a Fuse instead (which maybe others think is weird but there's a lot of overlap between the two) but my girlfriend uses a Cyclone for everything except putts. But considering how infrequently she plays and how short she throws, I'm not going to worry about her having backups.

[keltik]

Yeah I used Cyclones a lot more before I found the Fuse. I still think the Cyclone shapes better lines.

Well I looked through my sterilites and I have three EP's left. two whites and one baby blue. one of the whites is a first run. all three are 7/10 or less (not sure how to grade them). all have ink as I bought them used. the FR is 174.5, the other white is 175 and the blue is 173. I think the ones I sold were in the 160's.

let me know if you want me to PM some pics. we can work out a deal through PM if you want.

[andrew]

Really appreciate you checking, but I'll hold out for lighter weights....

[keltik]

I understand.

[andrew]

Here's discs I have on hand to sell/trade. I also have stuff on ebay under drummist1, and will dig out about 4 more discs when I'm back where they live next week....

[andrew]

Just added pictured discs except River (which I still have for sale or trade here) to a 10 disc lot and put them on ebay. Also just listed a 11x KC Pro Teebird and an "appoved" Q-Mega (two auctions, but those discs are in matching CE plastic)....

[andrew]

Updated. Mostly want to get some trading happening.

Want (willing to pay for these as well):
1. New or slightly used S-PDs or P-PDs in weights 158-163g, especially orange.

Have:

PD P 150 Freak white 9/10 $9
PD P 150 Freak yellow 9/10 $9
PD P 150 Freak yellow 8/10 $8

Those are marked weights. If you are interested, I can put them on the scale this evening (but I don't expect them to jump +/-10 grams).

[andrew]

Thanks for the response. I've never thrown a P-PD lighter than 163g and I'm worried about them getting too touchy as in really small margin of error for release angle/OAT (especially since as they beat, that margin or error already decreases). In other words, I fear you either have a perfect shot or you're searching off in the poison ivy somewhere. Do you have any experience/feedback in that regard?

[Monocacy]

Well, I throw drivers ranging from 150 - 163 grams. My experience is that 150s fly the same as heavier discs when thrown the same. The tricky part is throwing the same and getting the same release point over a range of weights. Some folks throw everything from 150s and lighter up to max weight. I throw more consistently when I keep all of my discs within 10-15 grams of each other.

Lighter discs are knocked around more by the wind, but stable 150 drivers will hold the line into strong headwinds on a clean throw (although heavier discs will penetrate the wind better).

YMMV
