I didn't realize how much I needed a disc like this...

www.armorydisc... This slot in my bag was missing before stumbling across this, I had forgotten how nice it was to have a stable mid that actually has some push to it instead of just being a meat hook that wants to fall out of the sky

[@willemschra2812]

Love it - reminds me of my Prism Proton Pyro. Workable overstability is so underrated

[@willemschra2812]

lol now I see you called it out. Same with slightly less glide, my thoughts exactly!

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

Great minds think alike 😏

[@discgolfdiscipline]

The disc that comes to my mind is also from Mint, the Lasso. Probably my favorite throwing putter right now.

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

Did it replace anything for you or was it a new slot?

[@discgolfdiscipline]

New slot - Just recently became confident enough to throw putters off the tee. It's a whole new world out here boys!@@ArmoryDiscGolf

[@94sihatch1]

@@ArmoryDiscGolffor me it replaced my envy. It’s a tick more stable but works wonderfully back hand and forehand. Has a tactic feel to me.

[@trevorwischhusen2869]

AGL Magnolia , goes straight backhand and forehand with consistent fade at the end. 5/6/0/2.

[@joshbeebe388]

DGA quake is another great option. More distance than a pyro or buzzz OS and fits right between a Z buzzz and something more stable like an MX1 (beef). Love the videos, drove me straight to the website! Keep them coming.

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

Funny you mention it because I bag an MX1 as well (even though I mentioned Gator and Justice). The Taco has been a great in-between. I keep hearing good things about DGA, I'm eventually going to try 'em out haha

[@DR4GONCYD3]

bought a quake last week. thrown it for 3 rounds and its my favorite disc now.

[@NickCarroll]

The Roc3 is kinda like the Luna in that it's a disc that's never as stable as the flight numbers suggest. My most overstable RocX3 is maybe a 5 4 0 3 disc. The Roc3 is a 5 5 0 2 disc to me.

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

I agree top to bottom

[@theodoreanderson3708]

Discraft Malta. Basically everything you explained the taco to be. I don't think the flight numbers match how it really flys.

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

Yeah, the Malta is a great one in this slot too. I really like its small diameter

[@JustBBlunt]

Mint Lasso and Terminal Velocity Ursus have been my favorite OS finds lately.

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

The Lasso is in an interesting spot between "Zone" and "Envy"

[@SmarteeSteve]

Almost bought a pyro, and will yet. Right now I've got an ESP Malta and it is beautiful. Fairly OS with a little glide, good distance for such a disc, and seems to be full of luck!

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

Haha gotta keep the lucky ones in the bag for sure

[@jmillydg]

the pyro for sure

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

The Pyro takeover is happening

[@daniellarrabee9741]

Great video, mine was the kastaplast yarn it is everything that an overstable approach disc should be IMO

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

I like the Jarn, the A2 is awful hard to kick out of the bag though so I've never given it a shot. Kasta plastic is top notch though

[@daniellarrabee9741]

@@ArmoryDiscGolf I hear ya, I lost a 3 year old soft tactic and couldn't find a decent replacement thats how I stumbled on the yarn

[@entropie]

I love the yarn! It's so good!!

[@grafforlock]

I throw the westside pine in this slot, its beadless but flies very similar.

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

I was uninterested in the Pine before, but if that's the case, if I lose (another) Taco, I may just reach for that next...

[@mitchr2554]

My glow taco (nocotaco) went straight in my bag, booted my cryztal buzzz OS

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

RIP to my Naco 😔

[@mitchr2554]

@@ArmoryDiscGolf 😔 dunked my nocturnal at lakeside last Friday, even took a dip looking for it but no luck

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

@@mitchr2554 They fly well but are awful at swimming lol

[@DR4GONCYD3]

everyone should also try out the DGA quake. very good disc. similar to the taco. workably overstable mid that bombs for a 5 speed with only 3 glide.

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

The Quake has been up there with the Pyro as the most recommended comparisons in the comments. Has me interested for sure- how is it forehand?

[@MrKporter9]

If you just have a noodle arm like myself the roc3 has plenty of fade at the end. But if I ever cook my arm past al dente I’ll keep the taco in mind.

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

😂 The Roc3 was my go to mid for years and years, fantastic disc 👌

[@ericjepson3765]

You mentioned the Roc3 but the Rocx3 is the true overstable Roc. I'm between that and the Croc right now. Not a fan of the Cayman or Gator but the Croc is amazing. More D than the Zone will give you but a lot less ground play than a Firebird.

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

Bagged a RocX3 for a long time, really liked those, especially for forehand. I think I fixated on the Roc3 in this vid because it has the flight numbers I would give the Taco and it's got a very similar profile Croc seems to be making a comeback in popularity lately, I've never thrown one though

[@bytetacos]

I would love to get this disc from Armory but its sold out at your store! (Sold out in the 170g+ Apex) Will you be restocking??

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

The Nocturnal are available now, the Apex release on the 7th at 7pm CST! 🌮

[@bytetacos]

@@ArmoryDiscGolf just got my Taco!! Cant wait to throw it

[@allenhammitt5092]

Mint Discs are starting to move into my bag. The Bullet kicked out the Proxy. The Mustang made the bag two weeks ago...... it ain't ever leaving. Now this. 😆 I guess my Deflector is getting kicked by a Taco.

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

Bullet is going to get a feature vid here pretty soon, it's somehow still so underrated. I think the Taco is the perfect in-between for something like your Mustang and Deflector- for me it slots between Hex (Mustang) and MX1 (Deflector)

[@ArcticKats]

This is the A2 slot! Bodanza just started bagging the A2 for Waco. I think the Kastaplast Jarn & Discmania MD5 are similar discs to the Taco...got any of those to compare to the Taco?

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

I'm an A2 fanatic haha. The Taco is slightly faster and has more mid-flight push to it (though a 300 A2 is pretty close)

[@ArcticKats]

I just started using it in the 500 Spectrum, N8 Turner's edition...the dome is interesting

[@deepintheheartofdiscgolf]

When I build my perfect custom MPO player, I'm positive I'm using Nick's forehand. PDGA 2024 it rates out at 97 but it's definitely a 99.

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

Haha I appreciate that Maybe I'll get those extra 2 when I don't sail a 180' hole by 40 😂

[@eoghana315]

Clash Mint is another good mid for this slot.

[@majorityloses4602]

The second you said mint, I immediately knew it was basically a pyro, which is the greatest midrange ever

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

These are really close to Pyros, which I also love. I feel like I get a tick more distance out of the Taco

[@benharrison5816]

Is the Taco shallower than a Buzz? I've got an ESP Buzz that's pretty OS, but I don't like how deep it is and kinda suck at forehanding anything deep.

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

I don't think that it's more shallow "technically", but I have found it to be easier to forehand than a Buzzz or Roc3. Slightly lower shoulder, I think

[@Simple.Human.]

You may want to try a Mint Bobcat, although I'd compare it to a Buzz OS but a bit more shallow.

[@ashermueller6543]

This silly guy is so silly

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

You say that, the original intro to this video included a stirring rendition of some Counting Crows lol

[@keenobi]

Pyro clone? Flies like it...

[@ArmoryDiscGolf]

Flies a lot like a Pyro but feels more like a "normal" midrange. Much more similar in feel to an MD3 than Pyro
