"I've bought all my prodigy discs from a local store, and the only model I can recall this being a problem on is the D1. There was the weight written in black by the company, and then the "actual" weight in red on the store tag. So…"

LE Cryztal Meteor
1 Reply
Not sure exactly when these were released, but it was probably within the past 4 - 6 months. I have an ESP Meteor, and that thing is really flippy and fussy. However this cryztal model is much easier…Continue

Hey I was looking for some information about attaching lights to discs for night rounds. More specifically, how to keep trees from knocking them off all the time. I bought some of those little thin…Continue

Southpaw_517 replied to eric beich's discussion Anyone else seeing a discrepincy in the weight stickers on prodigy discs and the actual weight or whats actually written on the disc?Southpaw_517 replied to Mack's discussion glo discs???"They seem to work best with a UV flashlight. All you need to do is hold it up close to the disc and swirl it around a few times and your good. You can find various ones on ebay, the more wattage the better. I would only use them during a new moon on…"
Southpaw_517 replied to Bassdad24's discussion Discs for sale"That's a lot of Flicks! Do you have any esp or 150 class flicks. Also are any of them the older opaque Z models?"
Southpaw_517 replied to papaTim's discussion Looking to buy a new bag.."I had a Fade tourney bag with the quad straps like you do, and I switched over to a Hyzerbomb Flak. I posted a review of it in another thread. Let me tell you though your back is going to do flips when you finally get that backpack on. It sits a lot…"
Southpaw_517 replied to Stephen Schwetschenau's discussion Snow"Depends on the moisture level and freshness of the snow. Wet snow should leave an entry point, while dry snow is more like a leaf pile and can easily conceal a disc without leaving an entry point. Snow that has been around for a while is subject to…"
Southpaw_517 replied to Just'inTime's discussion Favorite lost disc."Last year I had a ESP nuke that was dyed with a bio hazard insignia on it. There is a hole on one of our local courses we call the anthill. You sort of shoot across a valley that runs about 200 feet from teepad to the base of the hill. And the hill…"
Southpaw_517 replied to Ron Suir's discussion my 1st tournament"Is intermediate AM3? If it's anything around here like it is in your area, that bracket can have a wide variety of skill levels involved. I guess it depends on what you want. Do you want to get better, or do you want to be handed a victory?…"
Southpaw_517 replied to John Doe's discussion Best windy day disc"I was on break at work today and was out throwing spare discs I have in my trunk. A large portion of the parking lot is clear, so I have plenty of room to drive. There was a fair to moderate headwind, which turned the hell out of my hyzer flip…"
Southpaw_517 commented on Disc Player Sports's blog post dps is in the process of making new disc golf bag(s).... tell us what you want in a disc golf bag...."Versatility is something I really look for in a bag. I generally carry less than 8 discs, but I love having a lot of extra room to carry extra gear. I have a hyzerbomb flak, which is a backpack style carrier. I don't know if you can do this…"
Southpaw_517 replied to Evan's discussion Discraft Stability Ratings"I know the plastic type affects the stability, but I don't know the science behind it. There is probably something about the density of the plastic and it's aerodynamics. Part of it might be the difference in durability. A TI or an ESP…"
Southpaw_517 replied to Evan's discussion Discraft Fairway Drivers"Hey I reside in the mitten as well, and there are a couple nice fairway drivers to checkout from Discraft. An X avenger might be nice when it's beat in a bit, but it's a fairly stable disc for a fairway driver. My highest recommendation…"

Southpaw_517 replied to david swamp thing black's discussion The Extreme"I have an elite Z Xtreme, but it really just sits in my closet. I've tried some flicks and backhands, but it's even more stable then my Nuke OS! Maybe I could go beat it against a wall for awhile and see if it straightens out a bit. Or…"
Southpaw_517 replied to Evan's discussion What's the best driving putter?"Try a soft Focus. I don't think I've ever turned one over even when I put a lil sauce on the shot. I like to think of it as a slower Buzzz."
Southpaw_517 replied to Stephen Schwetschenau's discussion Best portable baskets?"I've had the Innova Discatcher Sport for about a year now. I think I got it from dynamic discs for 180 on ebay. I haven't beat the crap out of it, so it's holding up pretty well. It weighs around 40 pounds, so what it lacks in ease of…"
Southpaw_517 replied to Bruce Brakel's discussion Re: Stupid Mistake"Just wanted to point out a minor detail in the story that I haven't seen anyone else mention. I was playing doubles this week as a 3some, myself, my partner, and the other guy was Cali. And I always thought Cali gets 2 shots per lie, but when I…"
