How Many Midranges in your Bag? How Many Drivers?

I've been throwing more and more of my buzzes, ace race 08's, and drone lately which makes me wonder what kind of proportion most people keep of midranges to drivers in their bag. Thinking about getting a meteor because I don't have any understable midranges (or putt/approach). I keep 4 midranges in my bag and around 12 drivers.

When I followed Feldberg for 1 round at Worlds this year I saw him throw Rocs the majority of the time. I guess he does not know how to throw long and he should just go home.

Get a clue.

Midrange discs are for pussies. Layin up will never win you a tournament. Throw long or go home!

hahaha, seriously.

Whats the pig like for putts?

i have two pig putters. i like the feel of them but i just couldnt get them into the baskets like my flx challanger or xd. i had to remove them from my bag. on short throws i just couldnt get the right flight out of them, they cut to much at the end of the throw.

Z-Buzzz 176, Flx Buzzz 170, ESP Buzzz 174

I know that's a bunch but each one has a specific job. I found it's easier to let the disc do what it wants instead of trying to talk it into sometning....

Blaze, I would try a 165-167 Flx Buzzz before the meteor. They hold the anhyzer line well and with less snap they make a killer helix disc.

I carry a DX Gator, a Champion Classic Roc, a DX Birdie, a DX Polecat, a DX Kite, a Soft Magnet, and a DX Aviar.

Generally, I putt with the Soft Magnet or the Polecat. I'm experimenting with the Birdie, and I'm not sold yet. The Kite is understable, the Roc is pretty stable, and the Gator is overstable. I use the Aviar for longer mid-range shots.

If you all really believe this to be true, that you should not throw midranges, your just plain silly! Midrange is the way to go... if you cant throw a midrange far enough you need to go home! LOL

I think I have tried just about all of the midranges at one time or another including the stages of Roc wear. I like the idea of Mold simplicity but I was always paranoid about losing my money Roc. So I switched to the Wasp/BuzzZ Combo. As my form improved the Buzzz in a couple of different plastics, Crystal,Z, and FLX became what the stages of Roc wear were for me and now I can always grab a new one. SO I carry 3 Buzzzes and that does it for me. If its really windy I might grab my Wasp or FLX Drone but in general three is enough.
