This is the ad Discraft dreamt they would have created. A template for future other manufacturers. As someone brand new to the sport, but a veteran of marketing and advertising, this wins, but is so frustrating others haven't done this. Compare this to Discraft's original Pierce Fierce promo, 10x the production budget and this still wins. I'm not sure you know what you have here Eric.
@@michaelnewell9662 hehe since making this comment, ive learned that the esp fierce actually isnt a disc 😅 hopefully that changes this year, it seems so perfect
One of my favourite things in disc golf atm is that Eric you are sponsored by Infinite Discs. These videos throwing different manufactories and different discs is so good for us who are disc golf maniacs. Getting so much information and new point of view from one of our favourite pros!
Very convincing. Makes me want a PP Fierce. If I didn’t have a beat in Envy that flies like that, I would likely be purchasing one in the near future. I’ll have to keep it in mind if I every lose my understable Envy.
I was very excited to hear about the series in one of your early Infinite videos. Glad the algorithm brought me here just now, this series is gonna be a snaccccck.
Great way to support your buddies. If I see something in this series that fits what I need, I'll gladly support the players I enjoy watching by buying their discs.
Love this series already and yeah the Fierce is truly awesome.. it's so stable for an "understable" putter in that it can handle seemingly any power without flipping over even if you pull it over a little it won't be catastrophic and for straight shots or even little hyzers that you need to finish straighter than your typical overstable throwing putter it's incredible
Was really looking forward to this series, and it's already started with a banger. This one was a great reminder for me: let the disc do the work. I took my cryztal flx fierce out of my bag and opted to use a few Roaches with varying stability. Which is fine, and I love them. But it raises the question: Is reducing molds ALWAYS the right choice? On one hand, theres the value in knowing your discs and being comfortable and familiar with throwing them on many different release angles. Totally, gotta do it. I can definitely make a Roach move left to right like that which some anhyzer...but is that actually the "easier" or my highest percentage throw? Everyone will differ, but after watching the fierce effortlessly glide from left to right when thrown pretty flat, it was a reminder...sometimes it's easier to just let the disc to the work. For me, the cyztal flx fierce will be going back into my bag. I can concentrate on throw it hard and flat, and letting it move left to right on its own-rather than me trying to manipulate a disc all the time to find just the right angle. I'm not a pro, and I don't need to be. Looking forward to the rest of the series...
The two of the nicest people around! Result: Your shot is money. -No, your shot is. Wow. Thats a perfect release. -No, your disc is a perfect release. That lateral movement of yours is soooo great. -No, your lateral movement is so more greater. But yeah. I just want to rip some discs out of the bag, and put in the Fierce. Nice series on the way though! Gotta see them all!
I LOVED this video. A local pro Chris Brophy told me once, if you can throw your putter, do it. Throwing slower neutral discs are sooo much fun for me. They teach you so much about your form and you literally learn how to SLOW DOWN. And there's a side Benefit: Conserving energy, which nobody ever thinks about. And best of all these flyers turn you into a confidence machine when your drives are going sideways. Every bag has a need for these types of discs and shots in the arsenal. Great video you two.
Good on Eric for supporting his fellow pros like this! And I love that we get reviews of a TON of discs from all different manufacturers. I try to keep my own bag as mixed as humanly possible (when there's more than 2 from a single company I start to get nervous). So this series and the other videos you had testing flights were perfect!
Great video Eric! I am definitely looking forward to this new series. The Lat64 Pure is currently my go to neutral thrower, but I will be checking out the Fierce.
Eric. Loving the content lately. Glad we are getting to see more of you. Trying new stuff is what everyone thinks is ideal about being open bag but rarely do people explore as many molds as you currently are. Keep up the great work. Would love to see you throw some different RPM molds. I really love their mids.
This is a great video series idea, love it!! And I love the fact of how supportive you are of other players, great job man, and let us know how the FIERCE works out!!
Amazing, I do a lot of research on different discs so the more the merrier when it comes to these review series. The more perspectives we can get on all this plastic the better all our games can be.
Amazing content, learned so much. Can't wait to see who else you have on and explore some more great discs! Would love to see James Conrad or some MVP features
Fantastic idea! Now get Berg Nerd on for a episode with the Kastaplast Berg. He might not be a tour mate (or a signature disc), but if anyone knows what the Berg can do, it's him. And, yeah, Simon Lizotte with the Tilt would be pure entertainment.
Fierce and buzzz are the most versatile discs in my bag. I do more with my fierce than any other disc! From bomb turnovers, to touch approach. So happy to see another top pro see the light of the PP face >:)
I'm 4 hand player and I struggle with that back hand left to right finish and this video definitely made want a fierce. The swirly blue ones are so pretty too
For me, out of all the fierce plastic, the stock plastic and tour series Metallic Z are the best. Glad your giving these and other disc's a chance!keep up the great work Eric!
After watching this video and then Paige's (very in-depth) in the bag, I bought a Fierce! It's the Big Z Ledgestone 2021 run. And just my second Discraft disc I've ever bought. Love this series.
I didn’t know I needed this 😂. Thank you Eric 💪. Fortunately I already own a Fierce (8 between my wife and I in multiple plastics). We do Fierce only rounds. Great disc.
I just picked up a Paige Pierce Fierce last weekend. Played 5 rounds so far and it's one of the best midrange discs I've ever owned. This disc HOLDS a line!
So what would it take to get that pink and yellow ESP Fierce or the cotton candy one those are sick looking. I bag the pink crystal Fierce you used in the thumbnail and it is definitely a staple in my bag
That was great. I wonder what's going to happen if a fellow pro asks you to try a disc out and it turns out you don't like it. That won't go over too well with your fellow pro, the manufacturer, or sellers like InfiniteDiscs. So that could be a problem. You're going to have to figure out a way to say nice things about the disc while also being honest and explaining how it doesn't quite meet your unique needs. If every single review is super positive because it has to be that won't be as useful to those of us that just want the real skinny.
I'm thinking that as long as the pro's disc does what they say it does, then Eric can just verify that but without comparison to something that he may have that does the same thing but easier. So basically a "yeah I see it does X well if thrown Y" and then just omit conversation about it going into the bag or replacing another disc or that another disc does it easier. The reality is that it isn't like every disc that would be on this series would be thrown by Eric - only so many slots in a bag.
This is such a sweet idea for a series, and the perfect thing to do as a mixed bag pro
thank you for coming up with this!

Agh I can already tell that this series is going to make me buy a lot of discs 😅 awesome seeing you support other pros with your platform
good luck finding a esp fierce

Great idea and a nice view into players bags more so than the usual 30 seconds on a mold in an itb video!
I was very excited to hear about the series in one of your early Infinite videos. Glad the algorithm brought me here just now, this series is gonna be a snaccccck.
Agreed, great idea!
Awesome video! Nice stuff, Oakleys!
It's really cool to see EO talk. Candidly. He has a perspective that I think is underutilized in disc golf media...
Eric crushing microphones is my favorite thing on youtube.
No Microphone is safe!
i freaking love this cant wait for more!!!!
So hyped for this and starting it off with a 5x world champ. Love it!

What a great idea for a series! I’m worried it won’t be just your bag that these discs will be competing for…as if I needed anymore

"Started with a Banger."
...sir, that is clearly a Fierce.
The two of the nicest people around! Result:
Your shot is money.
-No, your shot is.
Wow. Thats a perfect release.
-No, your disc is a perfect release.
That lateral movement of yours is soooo great.

This was so fun to watch! I like the new series also the fierce is incredible!
1 minute into this and I am loving it!!!
Great video Eric! I am definitely looking forward to this new series. The Lat64 Pure is currently my go to neutral thrower, but I will be checking out the Fierce.
The Fierce is my favourite disc in my bag, I definitely need more
thanks for Taking the extra effort for clear audio with the lav mic!
I love that they are matching lol

Dope series! Can't wait for more.
Love the new series!
I like the format and I'm looking forward to seeing more. Keep it up Eric!
I have to admit this will be a hit.
the only disappointment is realizing that this is a brand new video and i don't get to binge a bunch of them. This is a great idea.Sub'd just for it.
So good. Love all of your content ideas.
Neat series! Good idea, thanks for doing all of this.
This is a great video series idea, love it!! And I love the fact of how supportive you are of other players, great job man, and let us know how the FIERCE works out!!
It is almost as if Eric Oakley said "Is that good?" to his wife so much that it just became his phrase.
Amazing, I do a lot of research on different discs so the more the merrier when it comes to these review series. The more perspectives we can get on all this plastic the better all our games can be.
Such a great idea. Keep them coming
this is a very fun concept! I cant wait to see more!
This is great content and I can actually see the disc for the entire throw! Thanks and keep it up!
been wanting to try one of these for ages! definitely going to pick one up when I get the chance
Great IDEA Eric, can't wait to see who is next.
great idea!
Awesome series, looking forward to more. Hitzman is my local course in Pensacola, can't believe you guys played there. Lol
Amazing content, learned so much. Can't wait to see who else you have on and explore some more great discs! Would love to see James Conrad or some MVP features
This is amazing!!!! This format's the shit!!!
I love this putter. Low power it flies straight and even lands straight. Flips up with more power so you can hyzer. Just a good disc.
Fantastic idea!
Now get Berg Nerd on for a episode with the Kastaplast Berg. He might not be a tour mate (or a signature disc), but if anyone knows what the Berg can do, it's him.
And, yeah, Simon Lizotte with the Tilt would be pure entertainment.
What a great idea for a series!
S tier content! Can't wait to see more of this series.
This is a great series! cant wait for more

I'm 4 hand player and I struggle with that back hand left to right finish and this video definitely made want a fierce. The swirly blue ones are so pretty too
You are forcing me to pull the Fierce back out of the box and into my bag for more seasoning 😁
I really have to do a putter only round. I never throw putters off the tee but now I want to. Love my PP Fierce for putting though. Great video!
Really going to enjoy this series. :)
I think it would be cool if there was a player that only threw TS discs of theirs and others.
Love this series. Two words: BIGJERM THUNDYS.
I love the field you two are using. I have played at that course. Its a great place for fieldwork.
For me, out of all the fierce plastic, the stock plastic and tour series Metallic Z are the best. Glad your giving these and other disc's a chance!keep up the great work Eric!
This is a great series
Fierce is a staple! I have all the flavors I can get. CryZtal, CryZtal Glo, Metal Flake, prototype.... Love it!
Not sure I need the ESP... more comfortable with the Reko for those shots
I absolutely love my Proto passion. It’s an absolute beeeeast. Any line and it goes
Love the fierce I throw mostly innova and the fierce is the only discraft disc in my bag
Genius series idea.
Great idea! Subscribed.
Just bought a few bigZ fierces watching this before I can throw them. Love the content as always Eric! Keep leading the herd!
Did you 2 plan the matching inverse outfits? Great way to show how the disc works. Can't wait for more like it.
After watching this video and then Paige's (very in-depth) in the bag, I bought a Fierce! It's the Big Z Ledgestone 2021 run. And just my second Discraft disc I've ever bought.
Love this series.
Great video and series idea. How does it compare to the Deputy? I already throw Zero Medium Deputys. And I have a strangely understable glow one.
What a great idea for an open bag player.
Genius! I'm 20 seconds in and PUMPED!!
I didn’t know I needed this 😂. Thank you Eric 💪. Fortunately I already own a Fierce (8 between my wife and I in multiple plastics). We do Fierce only rounds. Great disc.
I really wish this series makes a comeback
At 9:09, that is such a nice shot. Definitely could use that kind of shot in my arsenal. Just wish I knew how far that was
I just picked up a Paige Pierce Fierce last weekend. Played 5 rounds so far and it's one of the best midrange discs I've ever owned. This disc HOLDS a line!
No it's not good, It's great! This series and the Fierce! Absolutely a staple in my bag!
Excellent Content!!!!!!
Good vid 😊
Cool series Eric!
video: 3:30, me: take my money!
So what would it take to get that pink and yellow ESP Fierce or the cotton candy one those are sick looking. I bag the pink crystal Fierce you used in the thumbnail and it is definitely a staple in my bag

I’m sold. Would nice to see a big z comparison too.
Eric, I love this series and I would love to see one with Calvin Heimburg and maybe the Draco. 🤷🏽♀️
PPFACE 🔥
Thanks guys ima have to get a fierce now.
paige and eric would have a good battle 1 v 1
Are the esp ones available already?
Eric… you’re a genius!
What a cool idea!
You guys are awesome but you should really switch shorts 😂 love y’all
I love this idea
I don't like watching these because now I want one! 😂
Lol, tough to follow up Paige putting a disc right into your bag. Good luck other pros!
I love my crystal fierce!! So good!!
Really great idea. I'd love to see you try Luke Sampson's tour series Kastaplast Rask
Also, I know it's been said a million times, but Paige is just so cool.
Do Passion next!!
Boggles my brain how Eric is able to throw seeds with that Old Vietnam Geezer throwing technique
