FINALIZING THE BAG: Putters & Midranges [I Surprised Myself]

[@jjhill001]

Woah woah woah Bodanza, I don't have to buy discs if I don't want to? Crazy talk, more discs equals I get more good. Ready to hit checkout on this $140 cart on Infinite right now, literally shaking. That's called dedication to my game.

[@BodanzaDiscGolf]

you better have hit that pay now button... if it's infinite and/or my discs with them, all rules go out the window ;)

[@jjhill001]

Really appreciate that putter video by the way, as a fellow baby hand person it gave me some ideas on putters to try. Good luck this season.@@BodanzaDiscGolf

[@BodanzaDiscGolf]

For sure!!! @@jjhill001

[@NateTurner]

The A2 is a sleeper! Appreciate you snagging one 🫶🏻

[@justwondering1926]

You’ve got me thinking about the A2 as well. Sometimes my zone is just too straight. I like throwing fh approaches flat and not on hyzer

[@cnking27]

Respect for giving the tomb a chance. It is very different…it either hits or it doesn’t. I love it.

[@JohnDubU]

9:10 Vlog-drop A2! Yessir! I have one as well, it was the first Prodigy disc I purchased. Haven't thrown it much, but pretty impressed with the hand feel and stability. I'm glad I have a lower budget, not sure I could handle having so many options. All cool to see.

[@Tim.Kromer]

Love your transparency in all of this and to see your reasoning behind what you’re throwing! We are all routing for you at Waco! Go crush it!

[@durtydan420]

Got my first.two infinite discs coming in the mail tomorrow. Bought them because of you dude. A czar and a pharoah.

[@nolancampbell2527]

Prodigy A2 is so good!!! It’s unlike any other approach disc on the market

[@johnshepherd6925]

Why do you say that? What makes it so unique?

[@nolancampbell2527]

@@johnshepherd6925 the stability and shape of it isn’t like other overstable approach discs.

[@jeffcronch5234]

I also bag the Glitch but may be switching to the Watt. I still keep it in my bag for warming up with a friend though, but I’m not sure if it will stay used. It cam in handy for some low long putts though.

[@nebnworb]

Really love the A2! I actually throw an A2 and A3 for the different shot shapes, especially flex lines. Also, I bag two mids that are similar to that pairing just faster: a Pyro and a Terminal Velocity Ursus which is a lot like the Birdie Ultra. The A2 and Ursus are beefy but a useable beefy, if you know what I mean. The A3 and Pyro are overstable but have a good amount of glide and not extreme overstability at the end of their flights.

[@joshfarabaugh9168]

A2 gang! Love a good A2, glad you tried one and found a new slot. Prodigy is underrated.

[@McSquiggles44]

As if you didn't have enough choices, I always recommend the Gateway Element. Similar flight to a Buzzz but goes 20-30 feet further for me. Plus the rim is shallower and much more comfortable in my hand. Loving all these bag updates you've been doing, keep it up bro!

[@bashildy]

Another disc in that slot that’s super shallow is the lone star Texas ranger. What’s nice is that you can get two very different flights out of it if you get one in the founders plastic which is metal flake and OS vs bravo or glow which is more US than their alpha which is their star equivalent

[@Morphowl]

I'm glad the Mana was at least in consideration. I recently picked up a Bodanza stamp Mana, or Bodanmananza as I like to call it. I've chained out for ace twice since grabbing it. Such a great disc! Good luck in Waco! Very fun course. Very tough though.

[@UWR16]

LOVE MY BIRDIE MARVEL! I use the soft for C1 putting

[@TCoutdoors95]

So good to see you throwing an A2! A staple in my bag! Such a versatile disc

[@danielpenrodii2389]

Best of luck to you this season! I live in Colorado Springs and am going to Texas for the State Doubles Championship, so excited/scared for figuring out what to throw once I’m back at that elevation.

[@AnikinReynolds]

I wasn’t a fan of the zone os until I bought it in a putter line plastic. It’s a lot like my regular zone but I like the lack of glide.. it’s really nice for dropping and sitting where you want it to especially because I tend to juice shots past baskets😂

[@kylegiovannini7200]

Need to try the DD Bounty ma man. Great flight, understable but it doesn't ever dump right, and it's got surprising torque resistance, I love mine for touch forehands in the woods.

[@eetu4302]

I highly recommend the Millenium Solstice for your semi-overstable midrange slot. Previously known as Md4🎉

[@ladiscuiterie]

Damn it's been a while that I am looking for that type of disc and and I've seen that name mentioned multiple times !! Might have to give it a try 🤞🏼

[@christophermerida8071]

I neeeeeeed that Cryo Stone MD5. let me buy please🤣Loved the video and the bag selection so far!

[@t3rssi]

Origin lets go! My first midrange and my first Ace dics.

[@ScroDiddly]

I got one of each of the Pixel stiffness snd they feel like aviars. But better. My putting has improved 20%. I tee off hr harder plastics because they dont flip as much snd have a little finish.

[@ErikGDiscGolf]

The new aura manas that just came out are FLIPPY! I got one to try out, threw it on hyzer it popped up flat, held straight for about 60ft then started drifting to the right (on RHBH). Was the first time I had ever got a late flip like that. I think it might kick my lobster out of my bag because its a bit more flippy.

[@DanyoDiscGolfs]

Completely unbiased opinion: Meteor ☄️ especially after seeing you throw it in the recycled ESP!

[@ryleymckee1276]

Wanted to comment on here, sorry its so late. But the Goliath Pillar is pretty awesome. Maybe give that a try. I know you probably got your putter. But thats an option to. It got rated most overstable putter! Lol

[@CatchMeOutside361]

I know I’m jumping the gun but how many discs to do you plan on bagging while on tour… like on hand/ready to throw… no sideline or backups

[@BodanzaDiscGolf]

lol idek yet!!

[@cameron6509]

Interested in the Chariots ... If I remember right, early on you threw Emac Truths. That is my current mid for that slot. What made you choose the Chariot over Emac Truths ? They look dope so I'll prob try some regardless but just curious about your thoughts on the differences between the two molds

[@hagenschwark8908]

Beat up a fission envy…. They last 10x as long as an electron but get basically the same proxy like flight after about 2-3 months of use. They don’t get knicked up, warp, or taco like electron, but still feel like a very “premium” base plastic

[@jackr4777]

If you’re still wanting to experiment with an OS midrange, the clash mango is freaking sick, feels incredible in the hand

[@defjodor1]

Anubis=mako3, the actual mako3 mold has been used. The text is in the botum somewhere. I had two and lost them......demonic😂. Cause I usually do not loose discs or get them back when found.

[@Tipsicc]

I don’t know if you have tried it but the discmania Method is a nice straight to stable disc when thrown hard. However you do throw probably 100ft-150ft farther than me. But doesn’t hurt to try

[@justinforsythe1360]

Just grabbed a bomber stamp dynasty from the vip site tonight. Cant wait to get it!

[@BodanzaDiscGolf]

Awesome!! Thank you! I love those

[@tdsgoob7022]

Love the peace train

[@DiscLough]

Not even throwing a PYRO for the OS mid slot hurt my soul. The pyro is soo sooo sick

[@Big_C_Here]

To piggyback on comments I've read, thank you for the transparency, so many good/cool/new discs to tryout. However, I am curious of your opinion: can one be overwhelmed by too many choices of discs?

[@BodanzaDiscGolf]

for sure, I think that's where I'm at. That's why my philosophy is to just choose and commit. RESIST TEMPTATION OF CHANGING THE BAG EVERY DAY!!!!

[@Big_C_Here]

@@BodanzaDiscGolf I appreciate that feedback. Idea for a frolf video, a frolf talk if you will, how many throws with a disc to become familiar/comfortable with it, maybe putters specifically?

[@BodanzaDiscGolf]

hmm I think it's dependent on your experience with new discs. If you don't try new discs or trust your throw to be consistent it'll take longer. I feel now I can get an idea of a disc in like 5 throws maybe, but some require more!@@Big_C_Here

[@lockemeriwether3045]

2:50 "Not all of these are gonna be good sorry!" I'm currently living in Erie PA and I SWEAR the locals are low key trying to gaslight me that throwing in the 25* snow is no different than the summer 🥶🥶

[@DiscLough]

Should’ve tried the Sol from discraft. Thin is beautiful

[@Iliyena87]

Nice, the Opto Ruby just slapped the Glitch out of my bag, much easier to use as the glidey understable alternative since the Glitch simply isn't understable but a great tool for form! xD Looking forward to the rest as well! I think the connection you got to that first Pharaoh made this bag and trying to use as much Infinite molds very much easier. ;) Ps. Made my A3 whistle today Ds.

[@adamhartman4312]

I throw envy’s, zone’s, a2’s, used to throw origins, and now throw ultra’s. The only reason for not throwing the origin anymore is because I have a very seasoned hex that flys the same but now I carry 2 hex’s and a reactor as flippy, straight, and stable and then the ultra as overstable. Surprised me when you started talking about your choices to see how similar our bags are. I even do bags 2 speed thrower but it’s pilots instead of marvels. Since I putt with cohorts they’re more under stable as throwers and faster

[@BodanzaDiscGolf]

wow, we gotta stop copying eachother!

[@adamhartman4312]

@@BodanzaDiscGolf 😂 totally! We do throw similar. Your much better than me at putting a gap hitting but the style and distance is rather similar

[@aubreyjones2076]

Love these videos man. How you feeling about the MD1 vs the Origin? Have a great day!

[@BodanzaDiscGolf]

haven't thrown the MD1 much, but it'd kinda in between the origin and pathy for me so it wouldn't have a spot

[@SquallSeastream]

I understand what you say about the Origin. But frankly, unless the Detour stock run is something wonderful I feel like Origin is such a bomb to put on all lines

[@taylorbrandt8037]

Whatever happened with the Tempo? I think I remember you liking how it flies when you reviewed it. Maybe because it’s not on the market yet?

[@dylanrodriguez8203]

Also whats the differences between a color glow and metal flake glow for chariot ?

[@garrettcoons2287]

Overstable mid get a DGA quake in the midnight flyer glow plastic it’s great it’s definitely what you’re talking about the need

[@BodanzaDiscGolf]

Unfortunately prob not. I was going to bag a quake last year but it doesn't hold up in a headwind the same as the ultra, a little more rounded rim instead of the bluntness and it just wasn't it. Definitely could revisit in the future though!

[@caseysmith544]

@@BodanzaDiscGolf A Caiman or a Gator might be a disc worth looking at or Infinite similar mold.

I’d love to see some Bodanza stamp Alpacas on Infinite.

[@jeffwyssenbach4206]

I want to like the A2 but the hand feel doesn’t agree with me. Went with Proto lucid Culprits to compliment my X-zones (more straight) with a Berg as my 3 approach discs.

[@Bradenfavero]

Please advocate for the “moon knight “ khonsu stamp. Haha that would be sick. I’m loving that disc for the hyzer flip up slot .

[@Jarvis_Moonbeam]

I'm kind of surprised that MVP/Axiom discs didn't end up in your midrange discussion. I don't think I could ever have a bag again without a Hex, and I've grown to love the Matrix as well.

[@dylanmorris5253]

MVP/axiom/streamline has such a solid midrange line up it's insane. Hex, pyro, detour, deflector, runaway, echo, resistor, the list goes on and on. Truthfully I think that's where MVP shines the most outside of the envy/proxy combo of course.

[@Jarvis_Moonbeam]

@@dylanmorris5253 I'm in complete agreement. I could switch my entire mid lineup over to the MVP family and be satisfied.

[@justwondering1926]

I currently bag runway, reactor, hex, and then claymore. Once the detour is easy to get I might put that in. Or wait til my hex beats in a bit more (it’s already old enough to flip nicely).

[@mightysofa]

Money stash stamp! I really hope you do another run of that stamp. And more hats!

[@BodanzaDiscGolf]

I'll see if we can make that happen sometime this year!

[@prattacaster]

Is the Ultra as Overstable as the MD5? I have been thinking about getting one to slot between my Hex and MD5 but apparently they are pretty close....right now I have a Reactor that is pretty nice but I may want just a tick more overstability

[@BodanzaDiscGolf]

I'd say they're pretty interchangeable, wouldn't be an in between. The chariot/guava is that in between slot that I'm bagging
