What’s up everybody I’m back again with another disco video this time it’s the in the bag not the on the Shelf this is my shelf this is my bag I gave a few preludes preludes precludes something like that to what would be in my bag
What I’m carrying to I guess to end 2023 start of 2024 I’ll talk about the disc that I think will be in the bag long term some that might get kicked out without further Ado let’s get into it we’ll start with the bag itself it’s the Squatch link the Ezra Squatch link I
Love this bag I’ve had it for like a year and a half now uh just does everything super well the only thing that sucks about it is it doesn’t really have a good spot for a big water bottle like I can fit two regular ones in this
Cooler that it comes with it comes with a cooler which is pretty cool I haven’t really ediz it to its full potential but I can fit two regular water bottles in here but a big one like a Stanley Cup type of deal I can’t fit one in there
That’s the only qualm I have with the bag so far at least um let’s get into the into the disc though got minis I’ve got a marker got another disc on this side too but we’ll get into them at the end I guess we’ll uh we’ll sit here and kind of go over
What’s in my bag so we’ll start with my putting Putters I currently have two in the bag I got two Lunas as I said I’m a Luna Guy this is my main putter I’ve been using this one for over 2 years now uh this thing is amazing I don’t really throw it I’m
Afraid to see what happens if I throw it so I putt with it it’s dead straight Works in C1 Works in C2 great for just straight jump putts that’s what I love using these for this is just a backup and I have plenty more um just cuz it’s
Important to get practice reps when you’re out playing casual rounds you don’t want to just do one putt cuz then you’re only putting 18 times in a round it’s kind of pointless so there’s my putting Putters couldn’t recommend the Luna anymore I love the Luna uh for
Throwing Putters I’ve got quite a few here throwing Putters and I guess we’ll do approaches as well so for throwing Putters I have my most over or we’ll go with my most understable I’ve currently got the pa5 in the bag I actually got two p5s in the
Bag all my discs are dirty by the way so this is kind of frustrating um so I got two p5s in the bag I got this pa5 and I got this pa5 shout out to the doctor um um I got two pis in the bag this one I love this one’s great it’s
Kind of beat in but it’s I love the plastic this whatever plastic it is which I don’t know what it is um can I find out nope so there’s that pa5 and then this one’s new to the bag in the Spectrum plastic klaa this one’s a little more stable so I like throwing
This one too the thing I like about the pa5 the most is they do have some carry to them I could probably throw them a little over 300 you know a Heiser heer flip to turn and turn over um good in the woods good in the
Open Dead straight and I can also putt with them if I wanted to they feel good even in premium plastic they feel good putting so they’re very versatile I would say one of these will probably get kicked out at some point just cuz I don’t need two in the bag um we’ll see
Which one makes it probably the doctor cuz it looks cooler but chances are one of those will get kicked out for something else at some point down the line as I find a need maybe I’ll put the tomb back in the bag maybe I’ll put like
A Burg in the bag something like that we’ll see we’ll see um I would say next step down or next step up I should say would be the glitch um this is like put it on whatever angle you want it’s going to throw this is a more overstable
Glitch apparently this Simon loot glitch run I’m going to I’m going to bend down again I like being in the camera this is the glitch um this thing I can throw it up to probably like 300 if I put on like a a slight bit of Hiser I can throw on
Like this much Hiser stand stand up Glides forever and then has like a nice little finish at the end um which I really like you know it’s not understable it’s not going to flip over on you but you also have to have good form when you’re throwing it which is a
Good disc to have because you have to learn to throw people say it’s gimmicky I don’t really think it’s gimmicky I think it’s a good disc and it works especially in the woods you know that’s a big thing with throwing Putters I want to be able to hit lines in the woods
That’s what this disc does for me it’s very versatile so I can do a lot with it so that’s why it’s in the bag um I actually have it the one problem I have the glitch this glitch specifically and I guess this plastic um
It warps very easily so I I used to have it down here in this pocket but it warps so now I have to have it in the top pocket with my Lunas and it shouldn’t be because it doesn’t deserve to be with the Lunas another disc that doesn’t
Deserve to be with the Lunas but is is the pen Rose I was talking about this in my in the Shelf video this is my main one this is my overstable wind fighting putter so if it’s really windy um especially like a head wind or if it’s just windy in general Crosswinds
Whatever I’ll pull this disc out to putt with it’s probably one of the most overstable Putters out there um that is purely for putting um but it also throws really well I have it in the OG base plastic and this still works to throw and it’s like it’s if you throw it it’s
Nice and straight but it’ll always hook up a little bit at the end so it’s a nice in between between my um glitch and my zone that I have here and I like the Zone I love the Zone shout out Anthony Bella this is a good forehand
Disc it’s a good backhand disc it doesn’t really get thrown as much it probably could or should just cuz I think I’m not I’m not good enough yet to make it workable for me I kind of like I don’t throw on Annie much so it’s like
Flat and then it fades or I’ll throw it on Hiser and have it like a looping Hiser but the it’s a little more stable than what I would typically throw like The Pen Rose I can trust to carry Straight a little bit more whereas this one might hook up a little early
Compared to what I want it to do um but it’s good on forehand good on backhand um I like it for forand approaches of course but as you’ll see I kind of have a bit of a battle going on for that four four hand approach slot um and that’s
Where these other discs come in so the zone is like the straightest forand approach even though it does hook up at the end it’s not one that I can like scream with Annie I can’t put it on like a heavy Annie angle and trust it to come
Back it’s kind of glidey which is nice cuz I used to have a Berg that I would do like high Annie flicks with the Zone can kind of do that it does fade a little bit at the end but it still gets really good distance but when I want
Something where I can throw a little bit on a harsher angle I use the Anvil I like I like the Anvil this disc is really good for throwing hard Annie but also getting some good distance I can probably throw this and get about 250 to 260 with uh with the anval on forehand
Backhand I can throw it I really don’t find myself in situations where I would have to throw something like an anvil as compared to like a Zone because I could just put a Zone on Hiser as opposed to the Anvil maybe if I skip shot or
Something I can use the Anvil but um this is mainly for forehand um it might end up kicking the zone out of the bag we’ll see um but they do different things which is what I like this one is I thr it on more Annie it’s going to fade harder it’s more
Overstable therefore I like it it’s also got a good hand feel too which is always important when you’re throwing approach discs and then the most stable one would be my Ricky saki Slammer it’s actually signed by the two time um this one is temporarily in the bag I would say I
Used to throw Slammers as my main approach disc but I kind of fell out of favor with them I was throwing them those down forehand pretty much forehand exclusives the Slammers I don’t really throw them backhand no reason to um my issue with the Slammers like I said they
Don’t really Glide a lot which can be good in sometimes bad and sometimes um you know it’s a good disc it’s a good disc I’m trying to make it work in the bag right now it’s back in the bag for now I’m trying to make it work so I can have
A hopefully a permanent home for it as an approach disc the problem is it’s just there’s just so much overlap between the three of these discs that there’s no reason to keep them all So eventually I’ll just have to find one and make it work but for now I’ve got
All three of them this is good for like those up to like 200 to like 210 type of shots maybe a maybe like up to 200 I’d say a little bit more I’d probably trust an anvil or Zone more because I can throw it slower whereas I have to have
To really power down this but I like how I can throw this on Annie I can throw it on Hiser I can throw it flat but I also like using it for my shorter approaches because I know there’s not going to be much ground play with this as compared
To like a zone or an anvil where it might skip away from the basket when I’m trying to almost pin it at times so that’s a Slammer so those are all my throwing Putters now um for some reason oh there we go it’s kind of not fit I’ve overloaded
This bag by the way so now we will get into my mid-ranges and I am currently bagging four five I’m bagging five mid-ranges we’ll start with the most uh understable which is the Westside Tes this disc is not I don’t want this disc to be in the bag it’s in the bag
Cuz I lost my midnight prow uh origin in the summer I don’t have any other unstable mids so this is what’s in the bag for now I hope to replace it at some point soon I just don’t want to spend money on an understable mid um we’ll see
What happens it’s a good disc it does what I needed to do it’s just a little flipper than I would probably want it to be um but it’s good for the woods helps me practice my flip up back cans turnover back cans anheiser back hands whatever so that’s why it’s in the bag
Cuz I need an understable mid because it’s going to make me a better player it helps me with touchier shot so it’s going to make me a better player that’s why it is in the bag cuz it’s going to make me a better player my next least
Stable would probably be the meteor I have an ESP meteor I actually have a new meteor coming in soon so this one will probably um sit on the shelves unfortunately this will become a backup but what I like about the meteor is it’s good hand feel it’s shallow and you
Really don’t have to throw it hard for it to Glide and I will compare it to this Comet that I’ve been bagging since the spring of 2023 the main difference between the two of these I would say is the comet actually kind of goes far the
Comet probably goes like 330 on a good straight backand the meteor maybe just about the same but the meteor the comet is just dead straight like as dead straight as you can get um but it’s a little touchier I would say like if you it’s kind of like a novva and and the
Hand feels a little weird but it’s kind of like a Nova or like a Luna where if you throw it bad it’s going to be a bad shot so that’s that’s the tough thing with the comet is you can’t throw it hard you have to throw smooth you have
To have good form if you’re throwing a comet whereas a meteor is a little bit more forgiving um and I’m hoping this should become more understable there’s not much of a difference between the two right now so there’s not really a reason to have both in the bag but the reason
Why I have both is because I want to beat this one in to become a little bit more understable so I can replace the tses with it so there’s a lot of tinkering going on in the bag right now in terms of trying to get discs to work
For what I want them to do and it’s the offseason so I have that luxury of doing so I would say my Straight stable mid is this Lucid ice orbit emac truth bought this one in uh in a disco store on the way back from Maple Hill compared it to
The to the Pathfinder at Fairfield University disc golf course I threw the Pathfinder in a lake so this one won by default and I love the plastic this probably my favorite plastic in terms of hand field this Lucid ice orbit it’s nice and grippy even in the cold um and
The truth is just it’s got a good hand feel to it feels nice for my power grip um you know this thing it doesn’t go as far as I probably would want it to doesn’t Glide as much as I would want it to I would say it’s more like a four and
A half speed than a five speed to be honest but what I like about it is it’s dead straight with a little bit of fade it’s a very workable mid-range um and so I think this will have a long-term place in my bag I don’t see this disc coming
Out of my bag anytime soon cuz I prefer it to The Buzz so that’s why I think that that disc will be in my bag for a long time but one disc that I think will always be in my bag forever is my pyro this thing is my this is
Probably my besides the Luna and my old heberg Destroyer that I lost this is probably my greatest disc of all time this thing has been beaten into Perfection this is dead straight forehand um with some finish at the end I can throw this on anheiser
Not at full power if I throw it an antizer at full power it will pan to the left forehand by the way um it’ll pan to the left before coming back so it does have turned a little bit of turn to it now this thing goes probably like 280 on
Forehand um I can probably push it 35 on backhand if I really wanted to probably throw it about 315 320 on backhand um on a backand it’s dead straight with a nice hookup at the end always going to come back it’s not going to turn over ever
Um which is what I like this disc has no desire of getting replaced in my bag it’s always going to be a main stay and when it ends up becoming beaten a little bit too much I’ll just buy a new one and I’ll keep both in the bag cuz this disc
Is kind of beaten into what people would expect like a low reactor to be right out of the box I would say so those are my mids how much time do we have not much not much before I run out of battery we’ll go into my Fairways now um
At this point we’re just kind of going to run through that’s a fairway that’s a distance driver this is a fairway this is a fairway this is a fairway this is a fairway and this is a fairway okay we got all my Fairways here um we’ll start with the least
Stable one my least stable one is a utility disc so we’ll go over that in a little bit so my least stable one of the ones here is probably this um Essence Zen that I have um I really don’t throw it much if there’s a disc to be replaced
It’s probably this one um it’s a great disc I can probably throw this close to 400 but I just don’t have a need to because I throw distance drivers it’s like a it’s it’s a weird speed that you don’t really know what to do with so
It’s a good disc it flips up it turns I can throw it flat I can throw it on baby Heiser and I can get a really good flight out of it just don’t really play courses that um have a demand for it but it’s good to do field work good to
Practice of course I would say my straight men is this birdie stren thing’s been in the bag since the spring nice and straight workable you can do whatever you want forehand it’s a little iffy it has to be a flip up forehand it can’t be a straight or a turnover
Forehand like I can play with it in the woods with with an anheiser angle but I you can’t put too much you can’t throw with 90% power it’s just going to flip and burn so it’s good for backhand another disc that I really don’t use too much because it’s just I don’t really
Throw Fairways I prefer mids because mids are more uh mids are more workable so I don’t know what’s going on in my bag right now but these are not working anyways the next one up would probably be this Proto Athena which is stable just nice and like this is the
Perfect 7502 that you can think of fly straight more stable finish than the strike and it will always go left now on forehand not torque resistant at all but on a backand this thing’s money up to like 330 340 I don’t have to throw it hard it’s got the perfect hand feel like
If there’s ever a disc has a perfect hand feel for a fairway this is it I love this disc so much this is a disc that probably will not get replaced in my bag anytime soon so this and the Pyro and the truth are probably three discs
Um in the mid-range of Fairway slots so far that I would not replace at all in the slightest um one disc however I could be another disc actually that I would not replace actually this one we’ll do this one first this is a Discraft Undertaker ESP just put it back in the
Bag I did some field work and I really liked it um super straight up to like 330 it’s like a longer distance um like a longer distance Athena or truth if you want to call it um dead straight finish workable I can do whatever I want with
It it’s a good disc I really like this disc we’ll see if it survives I like the dynasty too Dynasty is a good disc in that slot um I got another disc coming in soon that might compete with it nine speeds is always like that that like
That stable NS speeed is always a disc that you can kind of mess around with and find something new any given day of the week and so we’ll see what happens with that then I have this Halo F2 Thunderbird it’s been in my bag almost 2
Years now it is beat to Perfection um it is I can throw it on forehand it’s going to turn it’s going to fade at the end it won’t really burn I can throw Flex shots with it I can do whatever I want with this up to like 3:30 I love this disc
It’s a Hall of Famer it’s never coming out of the bag this thing is great on forehand I love it and it’s solid on backhand too it always hooks up at the end but it’s not ridiculously overstable it is what you would Envision a Thunderbird should be now this is a slot
That gets replaced very often this is like my Firebird slot I’ll sit on my air conditioner here it’s my Firebird slot I have the ATI in it right now the Mario I threw it most of the spring and summer took it out for the fall it’s back for
Now um because it’s what I wanted in this slot we’ll see if it survives really really good forehand and backhand it’s not super glidey it’s pretty stable not ridiculously stable but it’s pretty stable so it works in that slot and we’ll go over the rest of the
Disc that these compare to at the end and now we’ll get into like all of my uh my distance drivers here uh boom got all these distance drivers here that I like to throw okay flippi one one without question is this one it’s the Wild Honey the Wild Honey
Is a roller disc thrown on any amount of not extreme Hiser this thing gets a full flight it even Fades at the end too which is nice so you do get a little bit of fade it’s not going to burn every single time but if you don’t throw this
High enough there’s no point in throwing it I really don’t throw it all too much unless I’m throwing a roller or I want to go like as Max distance as possible but I have plenty of space to for error and to do it with where I can afford to
Take a risk like that doesn’t get thrown often but it’s in the bag cuz why not uh the next flippi slot would be this I blend Pharaoh from infinite um this thing gets a full flight pretty flippy it starting to get a little bit flippy I
Would say this is my bomber disc if I had to pick a bomber disc this is the one this is a this is a slot that gets replaced pretty frequently but the pharaoh’s in a nice slot for now um can’t see it getting replaced anytime soon but you never know but they’re
Cheap so I’ll probably just replace it with another one good disc really enjoy throwing it feels good in the hand too so I enjoy throwing that so I can’t see that really leaving the bag the next flippi would be this disc Mania DD with this stamp on it um friend gave
It to me from another friend something like that and uh this one’s flippy but this one is like your perfect um like full flight s s turn and fade um it’s a good disc not guaranteed to spot my bag kind of overlaps with the pharoh a
Little bit so I wouldn’t be surprised to see it kicked out then I have my two DD ons this white and red one is like my straight to understable yellow one is straight to stable they complement each other very well this is like my Workhorse driver these probably won’t
Leave the bag anytime soon the only disc I could see replacing it would be like The Wraith or the grace if I ever choose to try something new but these disc are pretty stable in the bag like they have they they are secure in the back I can’t
See them being replaced and then my Big Driver is my silver lat D RVE this thing is awesome big on forehand can get up to 400 on a forehand probably up to 400 on a backhand as well super workable great on Annie super good on Hiser for Spike
Hisers really workable good disc I’m actually getting another one soon so that’s my Workhorse driver real quick I will go over my utility discs I have four this one doesn’t count this is a wild honey I’m just testing this one out going to come out of the bag pretty soon
Super flippy Diamond this one’s really light I bought this like two and a half years ago um super flippy I like the leopard 3 better um I have a DX leopard 3 down here in my shelf that will probably end up just kicking back out really good though in the woods you
Don’t have to put a lot of power in it you can throw it on Annie do whatever you want with it make rollers do whatever super stable Fairway Captain’s Raptor of course this thing’s board flat this is what I wanted the whole time I wanted something this St able I can
Throw it on hard flexes on both sides and it will come back 100% can throw this up to like 300 maybe a little bit more great disc I love it put in the bag recently can’t see a way it ever comes out of the bag good for forehand rollers
Too and finally my golden Cloud breaker this is my super it’s like the pd2 it’s like your stable your super stable distance driver I know this is going to hook up every single time throw it on hard flexes if I need to get around dog legs mandoos Lakes streams Rivers
Whatever it might be something I know is going to reliably fade backhand or forehand forehand I can probably get this like 350 backhand I don’t really throw it backhand but I could probably throw it like 330 my forehand is a Little Bit Stronger right now but that this is a
This is a staple in the bag I can’t see it being replaced at any time unless I lose it it’s not replaceable that’s a disc that’s not really replaceable so that’s my bag for 2020 for end of 2023 start of 2024 maybe I’ll do updates like every few months so like right around
When the season starts I guess the tournament season I’ll start a new I will give you guys an update on what’s going on in the bag and I will uh hopefully stay in the loop this time I have a tendency not to make these videos
When I want to and uh yeah I hope you guys enjoyed and uh I’ll see you in a few months for another disc golf video
