Podcast Transcript

welcome back to ban disc golf we are going GoPro for today's video because I'm right now in the middle of a tournament we are waiting on a card to finish up so that we can wait our hour and do round two the day that you're watching this is the day that my tournament will be and a lot of you guys have been asking for an updated in the bag this might be a little unhinged because my bag is a little crazy right now and it's constantly evolving but let's go ahead and make it happen all right first off we're just going to start where everyone needs to start which is in the putter pocket and for my Putters right now I'm actually putting with my own Putters I like to change these out every time that I win a tournament so these just came in my bag hopefully they go out of my bag today as well I might still keep them in I just got to Ink them up but there are also some other cool piers in there and I have two more Piers actually as well I have Eco piure which is my big turnover disc this one I use kind of sometimes in the woods but it tends to just be for utility turnover shots but I also have another disc done trying to cycle into that spot so I'm not sure what's going to stay in the back this is my opop Pier here I used this guy for a while and really liked it but it's kind of is getting replaced with the trash pen in core I've had this in my bag now for a little bit I really like throwing it and so I'm kind of testing these between each other the inter core doesn't quite go as far for me as the opop piure does but both of them are pretty solid molds the last two that I have up here are the Razer cloth 3 which is my Justice slot it's a little bit slower but it does the same thing for me it is very very very overstable and then I have a zone right now this is one of the first discs I ever got which is an ESP Zone that I got in Tucson Arizona doing my first disc golf event ever and this disc is pretty straight it'll actually flip up for me as a Zone which is kind of nice so these are mostly my Putters let's get on to mids Fairways and drivers and then what else I have in the bag for the tournaments my gosh it is freezing here this next round is going to be so cold okay I have a lot of extra discs in my bag right now because doing review videos just it makes you want to throw a lot more stuff and it makes you realize that there are some slots that you have that you might not have but some notable stuff that's not in here are first another Zone I used to have a couple zones in my back now I just have the one zone because the Razer CLA 3 does what I wanted the zones to do and it feels more comfortable in my hand front forehand and backand and a Justice I took that out because I realized razor CLA 3 that's what I wanted and then this disc just went in my bag after I did a review on it which is going to be coming out later next week which is the Pyro I actually only threw it on one hole today because it essentially is what I want my Justice to be just longer I don't want it to be quite as over stable as Justice is because I feel like I can push my Razor CLA 3 to where I wanted my Justice to go and so the Pyro for me from MVP or axum whoever the heck it is this disc is kind of what I wanted my Justice to be and so I've really been liking this even though I've only thr it once in a tournament moving down to stability I have two emac truth one of them is my own stamp which is a lucid ice one and this one is more overstable then kind of like this is where most people's Buzz slots is this is a lucid emac truth that I got at a tournament in Denver Colorado summer Safari and thing it was in June of this year and this one will flip up the flat for me it's just very workable it does what I want and then moving down to stability again we have a fuse fuse which I use for like turnovers that have a lot of late turn and then I also just put this in the bag just in case and I actually threw it once today not very well but it's the Paradox from axom 5440 super super flippy it kind of is what my eco GE is so they're in very similar slots so I'm not exactly sure which one's going to stay in the bag but I have them both for now because this is faster than the P it's a 5-speed rather than a 3speed so they do slightly different things this one is slightly longer and I feel like I can power on a little bit more without having it totally turn over I don't know and it just feels really solid in the hand so let's get on the fairways which is always my least in good spot I was trying to think of a better word I could think of a better word my Fairway slot really comes down right now to like three discs and then three that I'm trying to test out right now because there's a slot that's totally missing that's a very important slot that I noticed today that I need but first I have this pretty beat in Thunderbird right here this Thunderbird has been with me for a long time I got it when I won my first tournament back in April or May in Las Vegas so this thing has been with me for a while it flips up the flat it's kind of more much more of a control driver but it is still stable cuz it is a Thunderbird um but it's not nearly as stable as this misprint felon that I have for my recent run of discs also if you want to snag any of my disc I still have some available at banza disc.com link down in the first link down below trying to sell out of those obviously because I'm hoping to do some more when we hit 10,000 subscribers so if you don't want to buy one of these subscribing still helps my channel a ton but those two discs cover most of my overstable slot and then there's you're going to see a massive Gap in speed as well cuz those are both nine speeds here's a seven-speed river which is my Hiser flip to turnover disc so this is pretty flippy not like the most flippy disc in the world they're definitely flipper Fairway drivers but this is my I'm going to hit some gaps with this guy so I really like this disc but then there's three other discs that I'm trying out one is an air Ole Dynasty which I think is 9512 I haven't really thrown it much because I was just given it collab coming soon but I like the way this flies and I'm not sure if it's kind of what my Thunderbird is now but just a more replaceable version because just out of the box it's 9512 whereas that's kind of where my Thunderbird is right now as well and then the other two I was given by Zach who owns Prismatic Gear Solid dude uh you can check other their stuff if you want but they're two VMS from thought space Athletics this is in their ethos plastic I believe and they're pretty interesting disc cuz they're relatively stable I think their numbers are 7503 this plastic maybe the Ethereal plastic not 100% sure but it's slightly less stable I think than the ethos plastic but I really like the way that these fly I just literally put them in my bag 2 days ago so I haven't trusted them I don't think I'll throw these today um but I'm they're in my bag as that kind of Explorer teabird Athena type slot even though I did just get a first Athena test out but those are the main discs that I have in my bag right now which brings us to the big boys one thing that you'll notice even in here is that I have a lot of Trilogy now honestly that's just kind of where I started playing disc golf I don't think that many manufacturers have like a massive Edge on other manufacturers they're all pretty similar they all make very similar molds even a lot of the smaller ones which I have been reviewing and have videos coming up on the channel and just have more discs to review as well they all make really really solid mold so it just comes down to how it feels in your hand and what you get comfortable with a lot of that can even just come down to Hype like if you really like a player throw their disc you'll probably throw it better than a similar disc that you don't have any sort of emotional attachment to kind of a weird thing but it's true so moving up in speed I have Graces and right now I have Three Graces in my bag this one was my first Grace that I ever really threw this one is my flippi grace I can heer flip it I can work it it's kind of like my Thunderbird where it's not quite what it's supposed to be but it's in a good spot because of that my next one is this blue one which is actually becoming flipper than I want which is why actually put this one in the bag just for this tournament specifically but I didn't throw it yet because this one pretty much did everything that I wanted to do I just had to realize it was slightly more flippy so I had some bad shots with it because it's not what I want it to be but I haven't done enough field work to feel comfortable completely replacing it with a new Grace which I have the chrisan tar World Championship Graces they fly very similar and I think I'd be able to get away with it but if I don't have to I'm not going to I'm going to go to what's comfortable which is that blue Grace for me two more Trilogy disc actually the next one is going to be a r this is kind of my overstable driver not like my utility driver my super Beefcake driver that's what this is but this is my overstable driver I'll go ahead and throw it on Flex lines and feel comfortable but I also can push it out very far flat and it has a Dependable fade so I really like the Rives as well this is the one distance driver though that I'm probably going to take out of my bag for something else and I'm trying to figure out exactly what that is so if you have suggestions or you want to see a battle between a couple dist different distance drivers please let me know because I like that disc but I'm not super attached to it especially because they beat in to a point that's a little too Flippy from where I want and then stay there instead of staying at a pretty nice overstable slot which is what I'm pretty sure this one would do which is a lucid Sparkle looks like enforcer that I won from Jaden what's up Jaden if you're watching the video this is kind of a beef cake just like that tick up more stability of my R I throw it four Flex shots threw it once today terrible shot just really got over on it but that's pretty much the main part of my bag I use the dynamic dis parat Trooper but my bags and basically everything if you're interested in picking up stuff that's disc golf if you go through the links in my description you'll help to support the channel at no additional cost to you I don't have any like bag sponsors or any sponsors right now so this is just everything that I throw as someone who's pursuing playing on the pro tour isn't quite there yet but hopefully with this tournament if I get another one I'm getting closer cuz my first round was pretty solid not great I didn't play well but I putt really well and if you're interested in checking that video out if it's live it'll be right over here however if you're watching this the day that it comes out go ahead and check out this video right down here which is all about getting better at forehand it's a part of project 100 which is my offseason training to get onto the pro tour I'm getting much much closer to feeling confident enough to be able to do that but if you're interested more in the tournament side of things this is my last tournament Vlog from another tournament that I just played in Pensacola Florida called the Argo pretty solid play there go ahead and check that out otherwise subscribe like the video uh join my
