    Destroyer has so many variations, most advanced amateurs are going to really like this. I have a gstar one that is one of the flippyest discs in my bag, and a 159 Blizzard Ice one that pushes far and fades hard... real hard.

    For anyone who has under 300ft, the Maya is my go-to driver. Thrown flat I get good s-lines, with some anny it rides a turnover line a long way, and with light hyzer it flips up and runs straight. And I just added a used g-star destroyer that I throw well into a head wind.

    Just want to add to the destroyer spot, the echo-star destroyer (specifically, the Jessica Weese destroyer) is an absolute bomber. It is flippy, but has the fade you'd expect from a destroyer, and from someone who always threw a grace as my main distance driver, this thing goes like 50-75ft further.

    • @GPGMan703
      @GPGMan703 10 месяцев назад

      They don’t make echostar destroyers anymore and to buy one new is about $45. A cheaper but equally as good replacement is a G-star destroyer or Pro-destroyer.

    My top ones people should try would be as follows.
    Wraith
    X3
    Wave
    H3 V2
    DD1 is pretty sick too.
    Enigma is a good disc as well. Honestly, any of these are great to throw.

  • @serenityinsilence
    @serenityinsilence 10 месяцев назад +3

    If you are a beginner or lower arm speed player, you need these discs:
    1.) Latitude 64 Diamond
    2.) Innova G-star Mamba
    3.) Innova Tern
    4.) Discraft Avenger SS
    5.) Prodigy D3 in Air spectrum plastic
    Any of these discs will increase your distance if you throw in that 250-325 ft range. I’d recommend sticking to 165 gram discs or less. My Star tern for example is 147 grams, but goes crazy far compared to other discs in my bag.

    • @DiscGolfDemon
      @DiscGolfDemon 10 месяцев назад

      My dad is 66, his buddy we often play with is 65. The lat64 diamonds are ESSENTIAL for them. 8 6 -3 1, weigh around 155-157 (from what I've seen) I've bought all sorts of discs for them and nothing so far has been able to replace the diamond for them. So I absolutely agree with you. If you have a little more power than 66 year Olds, the innova mamba is DEFINITELY a good choice as well. I have four of them, I've kind of grown past them, can use more overstable stuff now, but the 11 6 -5 1 mamba indeed has an incredible amount of turn which will absolutely help newer players and lower arm speeds. You sir know what you're talking about, lat64 diamond and innova mamba are FANTASTIC beginner discs.

      I want to add the Underworld (not a distance driver, but it can be for slower arms) and Maya to this list. As my form and power improves I can't throw the Underworld flat anymore, but it is a hyzer flip laser beam for me now and a good backhand roller. The Maya is my go-to driver, able to throw turnovers, s-lines, and hyzer flips with it. The Avenger SS is good too.

    I've thrown the Drive, Grace, Strive, Wraith, Enigma, and Destroyer. For me, without a doubt the best driver for maximum distance has been the Strive! I am getting more shots over 400' now than ever before because of this disc! So much glide, just enough turn, and a reliable fade at the end with a slight bit of skip forward. This thing bombs!

    I threw an enigma for a few months before losing it. I enjoyed throwing it, but not enough to replace it. Other than the Mamba, I throw all of my distance drivers forehand. For me, I get my best results with the Bolt and the Trespass. Not that I believe that either of them should be in this top 5, in regard to that I think it is a fair list.

    Should definitely try out the new Gateway Ether and Realm, maybe even the GOne. I was super surprised at the new drivers Gateway has come up with.
    My best comparisons would be that the Realm is like a Destroyer, Ether is like a Wraith, and GOne gets a little more flippy like a Wild Honey. Those comparisons probably aren’t spot on, but I’d love to hear your thoughts!

    You missed the Fission Dimension.
    You're really not gonna like its rim of 14,5 speed, but this disc goes further than any disc I've ever thrown. And its super flippy, so low armspeed players can throw it effectively and will get a straight flight out of it, and intermediates+ gets a sick hyzerflip bomber.
