1 speed only tournament | Which would you pick? | Disc Golf Lessons

Which 1 speed will rule them all? Trying to decide which 1 speeds to take into battle. May the best plastic win!

Beetle? (Takes up 2-3mm in a bag with the correct disc inside of it ;P ) I choose the Glitch, it will show the best how good or bad I throw the disc. ;)

[@ogdiscgolfer]

I tried the Beetle and it was just ok for me. I think that since I have thrown max weight Birdies and Ultimate discs, the lighter stuff feels a little weird to me, and you want to be confident and comfortable with the discs in your bag. I like your take on having a disc that shows your timing. Thanks!

I would absolutely love to do a 1 speed tournament/competition. Dont think i have heard of anyone talking about that sort of thing here in Australia!

[@ogdiscgolfer]

It was just one of the locals at our course who had the idea, and it was just a fun $5 entry so nothing sanctioned and minimal organization. Just sign up and play. Good times.

@@ogdiscgolfer great idea... even if it's a putter only...so much to get from this...

[@Comeatmeow]

I prefer to play with a cap on.

Mic looks (and sounds) fine

[@ogdiscgolfer]

I had to do a lot of tweaking, but thanks! I was also coming off of Anesthesia when I edited it, which explain why it posted a day early... I normally post on Tuesdays, but read the date wrong. :D thanks for watching.

@@ogdiscgolfer I never miss your videos.

[@ogdiscgolfer]

You need a better life my friend! :D Thanks, that means a lot!

[@Comeatmeow]

I freaking love the berg x for some strange reason, Not for putting though. Unless nothing is working. Im also a disc crazy guy...in a year i went from having none to like 110 or so...about 10 are with my bro.

[@Comeatmeow]

I started my first official round in august 2023, after playing with my mate for the month prior getting used to it.

[@ogdiscgolfer]

Isn't is crazy how quickly we can add new discs... "just one more...!" :D

[@ogdiscgolfer]

That is great! This is such a fun sport, glad to have you part of the craziness!

[@Comeatmeow]

@@ogdiscgolfer I've got all sorts of different makes and tried to find the one that connected, once I know which discs I liked the most I worked with the plastic, then started buying duplicates so I could practice efficiently. Then it was oh now i need a disc that stops hard, or can go the distance, I'm now reaching holes I would have to used a 10 speed for, back in December, now I can throw them with a 7 speed comfortably, more control. Berg x was a game changer for me. I'm mainly innova now. But my top 5 disc would be champion rhyno, nailed me a ridiculous amount of top putts, Tl3, beast, mamba, all star, berg X,

[@Comeatmeow]

@@ogdiscgolfer cheers for the great info. I look forward to learning more.

[@NickCarroll]

It seems to me the Glitch is the more aerodynamic of the 1-speed discs. The Spore, Sonic, and Polecat somewhere in the middle, with the Berg, BergX, Dillo and Glyph on the other end of the extreme. The Sonic is probably the least stable, with the Berg X being the most. I bet you could cover most angles with a BergX, Glitch, and Sonic. What do you think?

[@ogdiscgolfer]

I think you are dead on the money. Thanks for watching Nick!

[@MasterDarkPoi]

As a Birdie fan I've always wanted a birdie in premium plastic. Have you ever seen one or thrown one? They are super rare and getting one is crazy. Do you have a recommendation besides the Glyph that are great Birdie replacements?

[@ogdiscgolfer]

Never thrown a Premium Birdie... I looked at one on Ebay for $300 and couldn't justify it. I tried the AGL Madrone, but it is closer to a Berg than a Birdie. Robbie C. loves his Polecats and when the Halo version came out I grabbed 3 thinking they could replace the Birdie, but I missed the thumbtrack and felt they were a little less stable right from the start. So I just keep a stock of Birdies ready to go (I have about 30) and will rotate in a newer one when I feel like I need to. I tried to find replacements in regular discs for the flight characteristics, even though the Birdie has a unique flight, I wanted some discs that could fill the slot if needed. So for my Flippy Birdie I could replace it with an R2 Spin from MVP, for my straight Birdie - an MVP Watt, but I keep going back to Birdies. :D The Glyph is basically a Birdie in my opinion... same flight, but the plastic just didn't hold its initial stability any longer than Base plastic Birdie... now I am seeing how long it will stay nice and straight before it turns flippy. It seems to be holding up a little longer, but I have also been out of commission some lately so I haven't been able to put it through its paces as much as I would like.

[@MasterDarkPoi]

@@ogdiscgolfer exactly why I asked bud. That price tag is insane! I ended up purchasing a glyph, and I cant wait to throw it. I appreciate the response brother!

[@ogdiscgolfer]

Hey, we Birdie throwers have to look out for each other. I think you will like the Glyph.

[@MasterDarkPoi]

@@ogdiscgolfer Agreeed!!!

[@EthanDephouse]

@@MasterDarkPoihave you thought about the Lones Star Armadillo?

[@alanlundberg4534]

No Dillo?

[@ogdiscgolfer]

I don't love the Dillo, but I know some folks who do. If I could only have one 1 speed it would be the Berg, but I would have serious withdrawal from not throwing the Birdie (Glyph) :D

[@alanlundberg4534]

@@ogdiscgolfer You are a virtuoso with the Berg! And the Pig! Ha!
