I've been playing for a little over a year now, and play, on average, once a week. It has taken me a while to experiment with discs and get to where I think this combination works best for me. I throw rhbh and forehand on drives; primarily rhbh on mids and approach. My drives are usually 280 - 310 ft. Here's my bag.

Drivers:
3 - Pro Wraith - all 175, from nearly new to kinda beat.
4 - Champ Valkyrie - all 172, from new to beat. This is my primary driver.
2 - Champ Teebird - 170 (beat) and 174 kinda new

Mids:
2 - Star Skeeter - both 175, one perfect, one nearly new. My primary midrange.
2 - Star Shark - one 168, nearly new, one 172, a little more used than the other. For windy days, or the gotta have a hyzer shot.

Putter/Approach:
3 - Star Aero - all 180. One more used than the other two. I love the Aero. Great disc.

There's my bag.

well for strter you need to get a roc for sure secondly take out like two valks and save the others for late and maybe try and rc its inbetween the wraith and valk and amazind disc next have at least one firebird for predictabitilty especially in wind because unless your climo understable stuff doesnt work right in the wind plus the firebird is an excellent forehand disc and you may want to pic up a star or kc pro aviar you may like to put with them but the are also great for short drives and you can save your aeros for putting .... thats about it and i figure if you start throwing rocs then eventually you wont need a skeeter or shark and you can have a range from beat to stable other than that you should be set
Yeah sweet bag You should check out the Echo star Teebird...feels so good on release. I might suggest switching to the Star wraith for durability. The KC wraith star mold on the lighter side (170g) is great for distance, wind, and controll.
Brandon - Thanks for the advise and nice comments. I have read the article on disc overlap and that's really where I got the foundation for the thinking on how to build my bag. I have also read other articles on that website and have learned a lot. My under-stable driver/s are my beat Wraiths and Valks. I release on an anny angle and they turn over enough for me and fight back a little to end on a fade that puts me where I hope to be. If I need the disc to end that far to the right, I will use a forehand drive to get me there.

Will - I appreciate your love of the Roc. Right now, for me, the Shark gives me the stability I need for those hyzer/windy shots that come up. I may work my way to a Roc, but for now the Shark fills that need. The star Skeeter is my primary mid-range, and it will hold a great line, whatever angle you put on it (it does not handle strong wind well though, hence the need for the Shark). I think that the Skeeter is a really under-rated disc.

Justin - I like your suggestion of the star Wraith. I actually have a couple (172), but thought they were too over stable for me. I switched to the pro Wraith because they beat in faster, and have great glide. Maybe I can add the star Wraith to the bag for my more over stable disc when conditions call for it. I didn't even think of that before. Thanks.
