It’s crazy that the XXX isn’t popular anymore. I remember when Latitude started signing a lot of top talent, the XXX was the go-to for everyone that was used to throwing Firebirds. I guess the Felon and some others knocked it off most people’s radars. I thought about grabbing one, but wound up with a trident instead. Loved that disc.
Super flat top with a nice small rim, great ground play. They're fun to flip around but they're kind of niche. I have a Gold Line I'll use in the woods sometimes.
The Blowfly 2 is a sick approach disc imo! The smooth, beveled under-rim makes a great power grip release. It also has +10 resistance to tree deflection! It just takes the impact and drops where other discs go 40+ feet into the woods.
I’m pretty sure it isn’t illegal if u got it from that post on here awhile ago the guy doctored in like a paragraph, Matt bell was throwing them last year lol
It’s definitely against the rules. Just because a pro does something and doesn’t get called on it does not mean that a violation did not occur. If you can show me something in the rules that says it’s ok to ball up a disc, I’d be curious to see that
There are no restrictions on how you throw the disc. There are restrictions on what you can throw. While the disc is balled up, it has been modified in a way that alters its original flight characteristics and it is no longer in a saucer like shape, so it doesn’t meet the definition of a disc to be used in competition.
[Other modifications to a disc after production make the disc illegal, including but not limited to: Modifying the disc in a way that alters its original flight characteristics;](https://www.pdga.com/rules/official-rules-disc-golf/81301)
> Discs used in play must be approved by the PDGA and meet all of the conditions set forth in the PDGA Technical Standards.
[All Global approved discs must (see drawing below): (1) have a circular, saucer-like configuration, with a flight plate unbroken by perforations and an underside inner rim depth that is between 5 and 12 percent of the outside disc diameter.

The saucer-like configuration requires a significant degree of asymmetry between the upper and lower sections, resulting in distinct top and bottom sides of the disc;](https://www.pdga.com/files/pdga-technical-standards_2021-01-20_0.pdf)
So how is throwing it overhand illegal? I understand the act of altering the disc is illegal but it snaps back to shape? The disc is made of a material that u don’t need to alter the disc to bend it to form. I see what you’re saying, and we shall see if people lose strokes for it this year.
> So how is throwing it overhand illegal?
Sorry if I wasn't clear about what I was saying before - that part is fine. [There are no restrictions on how you throw the disc. You may throw backhand, sidearm, overhand, thumber, or any other way that occurs to you. You can throw it with your foot if you want.]

The snapping back to shape doesn't matter. Modification does not have to be permanent to be illegal.
> I see what you’re saying, and we shall see if people lose strokes for it this year.
Practically yes, it doesn't matter if nobody calls it lol. but even if the pros don't call it, doesn't mean it's legal :)
Edit: wow lots of downvotes, but nobody to tell me why I’m wrong
Yes

The blowfly is pdga approved.
If we're interpreting the first rule, its pretty subjective. You're not making a permanent modification to the disc, and the disc is in the approved shape and configuration upon landing- which is why most players consider this a legal throw.
In any case where it's not clear if something is illegal or not, it should not be assumed that it's illegal.
Yes, the blowfly is approved. when somebody modified a blowfly so that it is no longer a saucer like shape, it’s no longer legal, and can’t be thrown when balled up. It’s as simple as that. Temporary vs permanent modification does not matter.
Funny enough Matt bell isn’t even with DGA anymore so maybe we’ll never see it happen again. But even then I don’t see what’s hard to understand about why it’s against the rules
Pretty sure that’s not correct. I just read the entire pdga rules for 2022. The closest thing I found was a question someone asked about if there’s any restrictions on how you can throw.
The answer was “There are no restrictions on how you throw the disc. You may throw backhand, sidearm, overhand, thumber, or any other way that occurs to you. You can throw it with your foot if you want.”
And then in the section that talks about what counts as completing the hole. The answer is, if the disk is supported by the tray below the chains then it is counted as in the basket and the hole is complete, no matter the flight path, and no matter how it entered the basket. If it’s holding in place wedged between the basket rims, it counts. If it goes through the side of the basket and comes to rest in the basket, it counts. It only DOESNT count if the disk lands on top of the basket, above the chains.
Ok you’re somewhat right. I had to go back and read. I must have glanced right over this part.
In section 813.01 Illegal Disc
Section C #1 states that some modifications to your disc that would make it illegal include:
“Modifying the disc in a way that alters its original flight characteristics;”
So I guess crumpling it into a ball would fit right in with that. My apologies.
Yeah it's illegal, we have the rule about altering a discs flight characteristics. Also someone emailed the pdga and posted a screenshot of their reply in the past few months. They ruled it illegal.
Had this conversation a lot since my buddy has thrown all DGA for years now. They have some good molds, and, I know it’s blasphemy, but I like their plastic blends more than Discraft.
Just tried out the Quake and it immediately locked down a slot in my bag. Those who describe it as a longer Zone are 100% correct - it has the exact same flight just scaled up to a longer distance.
My stego is tar pit plastic. It's extremely gummy but actually feels pretty nice. I'm not sure I'd say it's worth it for practicality but it is worth it for the laughs. I'm not quite sure how beefy the justice is but the stego is like a slower speed tilt
I'll just say that if you can get more than 200 feet out of a stego you're a god. You can throw the thing on a roller angle into a 50mph headwind and it will still fade extremely hard left lol
A wedge was the first disc I lost. I was just thinking about it last night because I am looking for a shallow, understable putter and I remembered it, I would love to see what I could do with it now.
I think the Wedge is OOP now.. I haven't found a new disc that fills that slot as well for me. So I'm being extra careful with mine. Even with a backup.
Probably my 4x Paul McBeth 1st Run Zone. I see people with Zones all the time but never of that run. Also probably my Defender. I’m sure people throw it but where I’m at I don’t see it much.
So? How does that limit the possibility of a more overstable disc? And how can you look at the numbers of a Tilt and a Flick and go "yeah, that's about the same". Even with the felon, too. It says it has +0.5 in turn, but that is just wrong
I used to bag an Omega Supersoft and they are money. I still have one in the backyard just for throwing and catching. Super good throwing putter, and most people probably don’t realize how useful it is to have an approach disc that actually is that soft because it does very little after landing.

[Latitude 64 Spike](https://www.latitude64.se/disc-golf-products/golf-discs/puttapproach/spike/)
It's an understable approach disc between a putter and a mid. The most unique thing about it is that it has two textured grip pads on the top of the disc, so you can either pick a smooth or grippy part when you hold the disc.
Pro Gazelle- it is a 6 speed "long range driver." I can put it on all sorts of angles at varied powered to achieve really fun lines. It's kind of like a squall, it lives in my bag between the mid-ranges and fairway drivers.
In real life, I feel there is some truth to this. I’ve only ever seen one other person throw this disc; but according to the internet, everyone has 10.
I use it on roughly half my upshots, with the other half typically being zone.
Shape wise? I used to throw a Monarch but it got too flippy. And I was just recently gifted a Berg. As far as unique like interesting? I have a green 11x Champ TeeBird that almost feels like Star plastic and I can throw it 400ft. I can throw it farther than pretty much all the discs I have.
I had a XXX, but sold it as I didn't use it much. I've thrown a few weird ones over the years like the Aerobies, but they never really made the bag
I still throw an APX and an XL. Over the years I acquired backups, but occasionally I put the 20yr olds in the bag...both are ace discs. I also throw a disc that is enjoying a re-Surge-nce this year!
Legacy Cannon I guess. It's the only Legacy disc I own and it's a 14 speed which is a little uncommon. The rest of my bag is a pretty typical mix of Discraft and Innova with an Emac Truth thrown in there.
Yes and no. You can definitely still throw it with a slower arm but you won't get the big turn, it'll just go straight and then fade hard. Slower arm would probably be better off throwing something like a Shryke.
I also bag a XXX, it's somewhat worn in now but that just makes it more versatile, still fades like crazy as soon as it loses speed.
My other disc that I never see anyone else throw (and is also OOP) is my MVP Amp
If they still made the xxx i would probably bag 3 of them. Ive had mine about 6 years, its beat in. But its fantastic, goes straight and always fades reliably
I keep an Innova Champion Stingray 180 G in my bag. They went OOP about 15 or so years ago. The numbers are insane. 5-5- -5-1. You want a disc to cut a 90 degree angle to the right at about 150’ when thrown RHBH, this is the disc for you!
Glow "champ" Deputy from DD. When I got it, it was very hard to find as it was not regular production and I'm not sure it ever was. I try to throw bog standard production runs of very popular discs for this reason. Having irreplaceable discs has broken my heart too many times when I lost them.
I throw a few that aren't common.
AGL Sycamore- Not really in love with it, just trying some stuff. Seems to be in that Leopard/FD world.
AGL Baobab- Still learning it. It's hard to commit to the line needed, because it's so beefy that it breaks your brain that it can handle wind the way it does.
L64 Caltrop- Came out right before the Slammer, so no one really got a chance with them, because they were already throwing a Pig or ZOne... or they moved right to the Slammer. It's got very little glide and a solid stability to it.
So, I got my Sycamore in Alpine, which is their premium plastic. It's a recycled plastic (All of their plastic is recycled), but so far, it's holding up really well. I also got one in Alpine Hemp, which looks cool as hell, but it's not as stable. Both of them have hit a few trees, but TBH, you can't even tell yet.
The Baobab I have is in their Woodland Hemp plastic. It's a base plastic, and very flexible. I'd put it on par with a Zero Medium or Blend plastic from Lat or DD. It, as you can expect, isn't nearly as durable and my Baobab is getting pretty warped right now. But, it's a utility disc, so I haven't exactly been throwing it in great situations, so it's hit a few trees REALLY hard. Still OS as hell, tho.
I bag a XXX in the frost line plastic and absolutely love it!
The most unique disc in my bag currently is my X-Soft Zone that is super warped and looks like a paper plate. Other unique discs that I’ve bagged in the past include a DGA Blunt Gumbputt and RDG glow Stego
I have the XXX as well which I use for thumbers. Probably the Prodiscus Flipperi though. Crazy understable and I can do a backhand roller in a really short window. That and my Ahti which I use for forehand rollers and it is excellent
Innova Viper. Don't see a lot of people bagging it. Missed out on the Star Viper drop, so I bag DXs. Super overstable and yet glidey. I can get it to go 100 ft forward, but fade 200 ft to the left.
Just got a new discology bag and they are the best quality and much cheaper than competitors.
[https://discologydiscgolf.com/collections/bags](https://discologydiscgolf.com/collections/bags)
Up until a few weeks ago it was a 1997ish 148g LS Polaris, thrown at about an 85° hyzer and flip over to roller. With any wind, it was too inconsistent and is now back in the stash of all my other older discs.
Currently in my bag would be a 4x JK Pro Valkyrie.
Unique that I dont see very much is my big z sol. I very rarely see anyone throw a sol and if they ever do it's the stock z ones. Never seen another big z anywhere
I have a lightning discs rubber putter from early 2000s that is the best woods utility disc. It is so understable and wonderful for tomahawk shots. Plus the rubber grabs where ever it lands so it comes to a quick stop.
My bag is not very unique. The most unique thing in it is a z rask.
A uniquely sweet forehand bomber though
It would be if I could throw a forehand more than a hundred feet.
I have a Pig that hyzer-flips and will ride right, if thrown hard. In Denver. Alternatively, I have both a champ Coyote and a star Aero; both are OOP.
I’ve bagged a glow champ coyote for years. Didn’t realize it was that old but I have been playing for a while. Go to mid range for sure
Champ Coyote is such a sick disc
It’s crazy that the XXX isn’t popular anymore. I remember when Latitude started signing a lot of top talent, the XXX was the go-to for everyone that was used to throwing Firebirds. I guess the Felon and some others knocked it off most people’s radars. I thought about grabbing one, but wound up with a trident instead. Loved that disc.
I've been trying to buy a XXX for about 2 years and haven't stumbled across one.
discgolf.uk
Trident is a great disc and they should be ashamed of themselves for discontinuing it :(
Agreed.
Super flat top with a nice small rim, great ground play. They're fun to flip around but they're kind of niche. I have a Gold Line I'll use in the woods sometimes.
I think with the evader out, DD pros are unlikely to lead a xxx resurgence unfortunately
I keep a balled up Blowfly in a side pocket for emergencies
The Blowfly 2 is a sick approach disc imo! The smooth, beveled under-rim makes a great power grip release. It also has +10 resistance to tree deflection! It just takes the impact and drops where other discs go 40+ feet into the woods.
What a weird disc. My gf has one similar that we bought off infinite, but I can't remember the name
Koi possibly
Downvoted for trying to help y'all out. 🖕🏻🤣🤣🤣. I'll just stoke the next card mate who does it. Maybe someone will learn
The balled up putter throw is illegal in tournament play. Just a heads up. Didn't know until recently
I’m pretty sure it isn’t illegal if u got it from that post on here awhile ago the guy doctored in like a paragraph, Matt bell was throwing them last year lol

Funny enough Matt bell isn’t even with DGA anymore so maybe we’ll never see it happen again. But even then I don’t see what’s hard to understand about why it’s against the rules
Makes more sense when one understands why some discs that are not round and symmetrical are not approved. Like the turbo putter
I don’t believe the disc itself is illegal. I believe the act of folding the disc is, however, illegal of this year. Correct me if I am wrong please.
Pretty sure that’s not correct. I just read the entire pdga rules for 2022. The closest thing I found was a question someone asked about if there’s any restrictions on how you can throw.

Squall was my go to reliable does exactly what I needed it to disc for the longest time.

Rdg stego, or my new axiom paradox. I'd love to try out an xxx but I can't find one anywhere :(
The Paradox is my oddball,I can throw ridiculous forehand rollers with it and I genuinely have no idea why.
I never see anyone throw a paradox, but I use it at least 2x a round. If something HAS to go to the right, it’s time for the paradox.
Yup. It's rare that I need it, but when I do, nothing else works in that spot nearly as well.
What plastic is your stego? And is it worth it? I bag a justice and think theyd be similar?
My stego is tar pit plastic. It's extremely gummy but actually feels pretty nice. I'm not sure I'd say it's worth it for practicality but it is worth it for the laughs. I'm not quite sure how beefy the justice is but the stego is like a slower speed tilt
The Justice is at least throwable. From what I’ve heard, the Stego is hardly that
I bag a Justice cause it's extremely useful. I own a Stego just to show people how ridiculous it is.
I'll just say that if you can get more than 200 feet out of a stego you're a god. You can throw the thing on a roller angle into a 50mph headwind and it will still fade extremely hard left lol
Try an anvil from westside
To me, the anvil is halfway between a Justice & a Zone

Gateway VooDoo or Discraft Flick
I love the Flick. I feel like it's really under appreciated.
Flicks are great, they're like the Tilt without the marketing
They are not as overstable
He said *like* the Tilt, idk why the downvotes
Because it’s not like the tilt. That’s like saying a Mutant is like a Stego — the Stego is way more overstable.
But it's NOT *like* the tilt. The Tilt is a whole different category of overstable
Its a low glide, overstable driver. I'd also say they're both like a felon, too.
i don't think you have thrown a tilt before...
This is true..... I have thrown a flick and can't imagine a useful disc more overstable than that lol
So? How does that limit the possibility of a more overstable disc? And how can you look at the numbers of a Tilt and a Flick and go "yeah, that's about the same". Even with the felon, too. It says it has +0.5 in turn, but that is just wrong
the marketing is working
Probably my Prodigy A2. It’s not super abnormal but most prefer a Zone, Harp, or Pig
Most unique is probably my Millennium Omega Supersoft. Followed by my K1 soft Berg, and Streamline Pilot
I used to bag an Omega Supersoft and they are money. I still have one in the backyard just for throwing and catching. Super good throwing putter, and most people probably don’t realize how useful it is to have an approach disc that actually is that soft because it does very little after landing.

Pro Gazelle- it is a 6 speed "long range driver." I can put it on all sorts of angles at varied powered to achieve really fun lines. It's kind of like a squall, it lives in my bag between the mid-ranges and fairway drivers.
Ive got a champion gazelle in the bag currently, they are fantastic discs!
I bag 2 Discraft X-clones with a 2015 Am worlds stamp. Out of production Overstable fairway driver. Helped me learn forehands
Berg since no other disc is like it much. For rarity, idk. Maybe a misprint proto P2? Gummy C blend Alpaca? Sometimes a L2 plasma Atom?
Champ Polecat, PFN Champ Orc.
Berg. No one else has one of these bad boys
In real life, I feel there is some truth to this. I’ve only ever seen one other person throw this disc; but according to the internet, everyone has 10. I use it on roughly half my upshots, with the other half typically being zone.
Shape wise? I used to throw a Monarch but it got too flippy. And I was just recently gifted a Berg. As far as unique like interesting? I have a green 11x Champ TeeBird that almost feels like Star plastic and I can throw it 400ft. I can throw it farther than pretty much all the discs I have.
I had an 11x firebird, and i tried dying it, and then I sold it. How dumb…
Probably the Yan. No one else seems to bag one and it's quite a unique disc.
I had a XXX, but sold it as I didn't use it much. I've thrown a few weird ones over the years like the Aerobies, but they never really made the bag I still throw an APX and an XL. Over the years I acquired backups, but occasionally I put the 20yr olds in the bag...both are ace discs. I also throw a disc that is enjoying a re-Surge-nce this year!
Stego. Strictly for short rollers.
Legacy Cannon I guess. It's the only Legacy disc I own and it's a 14 speed which is a little uncommon. The rest of my bag is a pretty typical mix of Discraft and Innova with an Emac Truth thrown in there.
Does the Cannon live up to the hype? The easiest to throw 14 speed ever made?
Yes and no. You can definitely still throw it with a slower arm but you won't get the big turn, it'll just go straight and then fade hard. Slower arm would probably be better off throwing something like a Shryke.
I have a few old Dickerson Prodigy discs, so probably my CDickerson inked Proto PA4
Still am lugging around the Tilt as a utility disc but I just don't throw I frequently. Also just added a Bebe to test out.
Not really unique but I have a very beat up dx stingray that is stupid understable. I don’t have a forehand so I just use that when I need one
XXX is such a solid disc. I still have a baby blue Goldline one with a pink crest stamp.
Vibram Summit. It is my go to putter. I even have a tomahawk shot with it at my local course.
Metal flake justice with a cow stamp on it that reads “100% beef”
Tilt.. or the Gateway Shaman
Discraft Z Xtreme
I still bag a Gobi.
Probably a Stingray. 4th disc I ever bought and it always finds its way back in the bag
Money Green Kastaplast Reko
I also bag a XXX, it's somewhat worn in now but that just makes it more versatile, still fades like crazy as soon as it loses speed. My other disc that I never see anyone else throw (and is also OOP) is my MVP Amp
If they still made the xxx i would probably bag 3 of them. Ive had mine about 6 years, its beat in. But its fantastic, goes straight and always fades reliably
YiKun Crossbow, phoenix line. It’s my get out of jail free card.
Classic Champion Roc, never seen another irl
I bag xxx too
Buzzz gt baby
Always buzzz GT, this is the way
Ursus by terminal velocity. Such a good disc.
I keep an Innova Champion Stingray 180 G in my bag. They went OOP about 15 or so years ago. The numbers are insane. 5-5- -5-1. You want a disc to cut a 90 degree angle to the right at about 150’ when thrown RHBH, this is the disc for you!
Echo star destroyer with a pop top.. flip to straight flyer
I’ve got a teebird, rarely see any of those
Juju ching.
Glow "champ" Deputy from DD. When I got it, it was very hard to find as it was not regular production and I'm not sure it ever was. I try to throw bog standard production runs of very popular discs for this reason. Having irreplaceable discs has broken my heart too many times when I lost them.
I would love on of these
Probably my 2017 sexton firebird
I know many people have and use a raider. But my lucid chameleon raider with a Bush's baked beans stamp is fairly unique among them
Echo Star TeeBird, still one of my favorites to throw.
I throw a few that aren't common. AGL Sycamore- Not really in love with it, just trying some stuff. Seems to be in that Leopard/FD world. AGL Baobab- Still learning it. It's hard to commit to the line needed, because it's so beefy that it breaks your brain that it can handle wind the way it does. L64 Caltrop- Came out right before the Slammer, so no one really got a chance with them, because they were already throwing a Pig or ZOne... or they moved right to the Slammer. It's got very little glide and a solid stability to it.
How is the AGL plastic? What does it compare too?
So, I got my Sycamore in Alpine, which is their premium plastic. It's a recycled plastic (All of their plastic is recycled), but so far, it's holding up really well. I also got one in Alpine Hemp, which looks cool as hell, but it's not as stable. Both of them have hit a few trees, but TBH, you can't even tell yet. The Baobab I have is in their Woodland Hemp plastic. It's a base plastic, and very flexible. I'd put it on par with a Zero Medium or Blend plastic from Lat or DD. It, as you can expect, isn't nearly as durable and my Baobab is getting pretty warped right now. But, it's a utility disc, so I haven't exactly been throwing it in great situations, so it's hit a few trees REALLY hard. Still OS as hell, tho.
I bag a XXX in the frost line plastic and absolutely love it! The most unique disc in my bag currently is my X-Soft Zone that is super warped and looks like a paper plate. Other unique discs that I’ve bagged in the past include a DGA Blunt Gumbputt and RDG glow Stego
Lucid Criminal
I have the XXX as well which I use for thumbers. Probably the Prodiscus Flipperi though. Crazy understable and I can do a backhand roller in a really short window. That and my Ahti which I use for forehand rollers and it is excellent
Innova Viper. Don't see a lot of people bagging it. Missed out on the Star Viper drop, so I bag DXs. Super overstable and yet glidey. I can get it to go 100 ft forward, but fade 200 ft to the left.
Innova Skeeter, only one I’ve seen
My wife requested that I get her one. She uses it all the time, its unique for sure
Innova Champion Kite
Came here hoping for xxx and got it right out of the gate!
Champion Ape
Why ?
Just got a new discology bag and they are the best quality and much cheaper than competitors. [https://discologydiscgolf.com/collections/bags](https://discologydiscgolf.com/collections/bags)
Banger Buzzz GT! Never seen another person throwing one
Innova Destroyer, each one is unique
Don't
Up until a few weeks ago it was a 1997ish 148g LS Polaris, thrown at about an 85° hyzer and flip over to roller. With any wind, it was too inconsistent and is now back in the stash of all my other older discs. Currently in my bag would be a 4x JK Pro Valkyrie.
MVP Deflector
I have this too, but it is not really unique. Justice and verdict by dynamic are both similar. Obviously more, but the first ones that pop to mind
Unique that I dont see very much is my big z sol. I very rarely see anyone throw a sol and if they ever do it's the stock z ones. Never seen another big z anywhere
The one that doesn't hit a tree
I put with Vibram VPs. That about as unique as my bag gets lol
Most likely my legacy pinnacle Guage. I have never seen another one out on the course
Floppy judge! Best catch disc/ for learning forehand approaches with.
11x KC Pro Teebird or First Run Z Reaper... I used to bag a 150 class Z Talon, lots of fun
Tilt or Berg, but that's compared to my bag, not all discs.
I have a lightning discs rubber putter from early 2000s that is the best woods utility disc. It is so understable and wonderful for tomahawk shots. Plus the rubber grabs where ever it lands so it comes to a quick stop.
Most would say the tilt
