I've been lookin at Innovas Distance Drivers, for a disc that will get me a huge hyzer in the open grass (although trees dont necessarily matter). Preferably Pro, or Star plastic.
These discs caught my eye
Boss (13,5,-1,3) : Smack dab in the middle of the Flight C chart. Lots of speed. Seems great, but what about the Turn at -1? Will that take away from the huge hyzer im lookin for?
Katana (13,5,-3,3) : I used to own a Katana, but gave up on it because it had just came out and I didn't know much about it. Now that I think about it I really wish i still had it because I know i could rip one very far. Although I have never owned a Boss, I'm aware that both discs have very wide rims does this help with bigger hyzers? And again, what about the Turn at -3? Will this pull away from a hyzer?
Destroyer (12,5,-1,3) : Obviously a good disc. The physical characteristic appeal to me because the rim is not so broad. Seems like a go to disc dealing with hyzers. Probably my number one pick
Firebird (9,3,0,4) : Not very much speed, but the turn and fade seem to add up to make one believe this disc will put out a huge hyzer.
Beast (10,5,-2,2) : I own a 174g Beast, seems to me like i could pull off a nice hyzer, but the flight characteristics dont add up..which is why I'm looking elsewhere.
Any suggestions on these five discs would be great

Katana is good, but I would go with the Beast. It is a little more controllable because of the rim depth.
Permalink Reply by Fat Tire Flier on December 17, 2010 at 6:01pm Agree almost 100% Pro katanas flip very eaasily. Sidewinders and Roadrunners will hold that line the whole way too. stay away from a firebird.
My anhyzer disc is a beat in DX Valkyrie, I'm getting a champ and star valkyries for Christmas and I'm curious as to how each will break-in.
I also have a monarch that I've been able to anhyzer in practice for more distance then my Valkyrie, but I can't seem to get the same results on the course.
The Boss isn't a bad disc if the wide rim doesn't bother you, I found it uncomfortable.
I agree with Shawn about the firebird, mine is wicked over-stable great for hyzers.
I have a very low opinion of the Star Katana, I find it uncomfortable to throw and way over-stable. Try to throw a star katana thumber when the ground is soft and it will stick in like a gravestone. I've heard the Pro version is a much better disc, but I'm not going to spend money to find out.
I have a DX and Champ beast, I find them hard to control unless I throw them really flat.
I have never thrown a Destroyer, so I have no opinion.

Permalink Reply by AndroidJonny on December 18, 2010 at 12:16am I have both a Champion and Star Valkyrie. The Champ is 167g and the Star is 174. They are both great for straight and S Shots. I utilize them both in various situations. You will be very Happy with them.
As for Anhyzer, I throw a 162 R-Pro Boss for Longer S Shots and a 171 Pro Starfire for turnovers. The Pro and R-Pro Plastics seem to be less stable. For shorter drives that require Anhyzer I throw a KC-Pro Aviar. Another good Anny disc for me that I no longer throw is an ESP FLX AvengerSS.
I'm confused. Your thread title talks about Anhyzer but then you bold hyzer and list predominantly hyzer discs. Which is it that you're actually looking for?

Permalink Reply by Rescue on December 17, 2010 at 10:41am Sidewinder, Roadrunner, Monarch, Wahoo(BIG time!), Katana I guess, but not for me.
Permalink Reply by Jim Coonradt on December 17, 2010 at 12:24pm Are you talking anhyzer or hyzer? I'm confused because the title says anhyzer but then you start talking about hyzer.
So let's go with anhyzer discs...
Sidewinder, Lemon Lake Katana, TeeBird (especially new DX plastic before it gets too worn in). Stay away from the Star Katana as it is too overstable.
