As soon as you said SOL, I said "Sullivan Tipton!" :D Another parameter of only using a more neutral/slightly overstable disc is that is needs more space to make the turn... which can be problematic if you need to throw through a tight gap before it turns. So you are adding a layer of complexity just to get that disc to fly in a way that the SOL naturally wants to travel. Good stuff buddy!

I got Sol out of a used bin. I love this disc. Another one I got out of used bin for cheap and I like using is Discraft Archer 🤣🤣
@lolM1CrO4 күн бұрын
Now the archer is def underrated. Found 2 2016 ace race Archers in the used bin.

Great to see you spend some time with us under-stable guys. Although I'm not a Discraft guy, I recommend the SOL to all beginner players because I think it has the perfect flight numbers for them. 4 speed for beginner arms, 5 glide so they are happy with their distance, and -3 stability so they realize they can actually throw a long, straight drive. I personally have a full set of US discs that I use for pushing hyzers, turnovers, flex shots, etc., including the Swan 1 Reborn, the Paradox, the Rollo (which I do not roll), the F9, and the Roadrunner. Brands don't matter to me, only reliable flights.

I got a Tursas in a player pack this year and wow, that’s understable. It’s not always in the bag, but usually in my trunk at least.

I'll have to give this a try! I have a slower arm speed and use a fierce for this type of shot but it's getting a little over seasoned so maybe a Sol will be right up my alley!

Around 10-15 years ago all we had here in my hometown Lafayette La. We only had Academy and a guy that sold discs at the course. Academy only sold Innova only. The guy that sold. He had a Discraft Glide. The best disc in my bag. I got hurt my shoulder at work. So didn’t start playing again till the year Macbeth went to Discraft. And got hooked again. Man I want another Glide

Love the Sol. It definitely has a spot on the most underrated list. I think the Zombee and Ringer are a bit higher on the list. Zombee is out of production so it makes sense why more people don’t throw it. The Ringer though … it deserves more hype. The discraft throwers I know that bag an envy for that slot hurt my heart. Across the available plastics, you can get whatever flight you want … especially if the zone is too stable for more than chips and approaches.

I use the Swan 1 Reborn in this slot. It’s a 3-speed -2.5/0 that was part of a disc exchange with me and Chain Raider. There are some shots that are just easier with my swan. Shots that are way more difficult with a more neutral or faster, less understable disc.

That flip up/lazy turnover mid is a seriously underrated slot. Played the Purple People saver tourney last weekend and on that exact hole 8 when everyone else was trying to yam an overstable fairway and give it enough height to try and fade over to that basket, I just put that uplink out there flat and absolutely parked it for a tap in on the second round. also, you know the most slept on mold from MVP is the servo.

I think an exercise that helps with throwing understable disks or any disc for that matter that you want to dial in is to play multiple one disc/ mold rounds to become as comfortable as possible with that particular disc or mold... hope that word salsd makes sense 😂
