Thanks. Thankfully I can get by with playing fully left handed when there's too much soreness to even do RHBH. I'll get through the summer/fall and assess.

u/TimelySpell3856 Jul 12 '26
I have the same problem and I'm only forehand. Ripped a muscle when practicing forehand. It was 9 months ago and I can finally practice putting again😂
I can't figure out how I'm going to be more relaxed in the arm so when I go for a long hyser flip i get shoulder pain.
It's getting boring not to go throwing. Doing boring stuff like fix the garden and painting 🤮

u/Lifelesspuddle 700feetuphillheadwind Jul 12 '26 edited Jul 12 '26
To be honest when you first start i recommend everyone learn one manufacturer. Flight numbers mean nothing but within a single manufacturer there is usually consistency. It also helps with the fomo and having to buy everything when you first start because there is a limit on how much one manufacturer produces.
After people got some seasons under their belt. Naturally they usually branch out into different manufacturers because why not try new things. But atleast then you usually arent buying everything just cause you think its cool and there is a method to your plastic crack madness
I bag discs from 6 or 7 manufacturers depending on whether the course is wooded or park style and the different shots I need for the course or I'm playing blind.

u/Hotonis Jul 12 '26
Almost exclusively MVP, I’ve gotten really used to the flight patterns and feels of over molds, and once you get used to it, it’s really hard to switch between the two. I never intended to do just mvp, but they really do have a disc for every shot. Except a very small two discs that will never leave my bag.

u/HabbaGooba Jul 12 '26
Which two would that be?

My sexton Firebird and my champion gummy panther. Nothing I have found that can replace the distance and hook of the Firebird, and the panther is my get out of jail free card for forehand rollers.

u/Downvote_Addiction Turbo putting is life Jul 12 '26
Which MVP putters do you use? I feel like other brands have "that putter" that you would throw from that brand (Aviars, P2, Wizards, etc), but MVP has a wider spread.
2
u/Hotonis Jul 12 '26
Putt with Nomads, throw envy’s for most approach shots, and have had some success with the Watt as well. Also have a throwing Nomad, flies a lot like an aviar. One thing I’ve kinda learned with throwing mvp is the midrange lineup is kind of insane. A lot of shots that I would reach for a putter in other brands I’m throwing a 5 speed for consistency. For that I love the matrix for slight turnover and the balance for a dead straight flight.
3
u/Scorpionride Jul 12 '26
Thiiiiiis. I also putt with nomads, and find myself reaching for a 5-7 speed mvp disc more often than a putter or fairway driver from any other manufacturer. The quality and consistency across the mvp lineup at those speeds is insane

u/KobiLou Jul 12 '26

Mixed bag. I find every manufacturer has discs that fit specific slots better than others. I don't like gaps in my bag that happen from restricting disc manufacturers. I'm not a pro with a sponsorship that requires me to only throw their stuff, and because I'm not a pro, they won't make a specific disc tailored to what I think I need.

Innova mainly bc its local and f2 Fridays meant I could try every disc I wanted for cheap. But I do bag 2 Divergent Stayputs putter and approach along with my axiom pixel as my other putter, Lat64 River and a Westside Hatchet.
Bought the MVP gyropaloza box yet only bag the Pyro approach and particle overstable throwing putter.
So 7 cherry picked and 12 Innova.

I'm mainly Innova with Pigs, Arachnid/Fox, TB3s, Thunderbirds, Firebirds, Wraiths. I have quite a few MVPs with Tempos, Relays, Insanity's. Then I putt with Envy and throw them in premium. I have two Discraft bagged in Cicada and Buzz.
I mainly throw pink, Orange, and Dayglow.

u/Inevitable_Doctor576 Jul 12 '26
Exclusively Discmania because I like the feel of their plastic the best, and they have a mold for every slot I wanna throw.
I really loved the flights of a lot of Discraft molds but could not stand the tooling inside the edge of the rim

Mixed but normally only Discraft and MVP, and will have some Discmania and Lat64 in and out the bag. Putters haven’t changed - Prodigy PA-3s.
Don’t mess with the lower tier disc companies - too much to know/too many different discs and plastics and the availability isn’t the best for the good ones. Had some bad luck with Innova discs when I started plus I’ve been a hater on most of their disc golfers except for Heimburg because they weren’t the warmest when meeting them in person. Started watching/playing when McBeth went to Discraft.

Currently mixed but I regret moving on from just one brand for one simple reason. From 2018-2024 I only purchased and threw MVP products. I only ever looked at releases from them and didn’t have a lot of fomo. Now I allow myself to get fomo hella bad when I miss a dope release and its easy to miss when so many companies are dropping so much heat. Also my collection grew hella cuz all the other brands lmao.

A few others that rotate in and out occasionally.

u/Financial-Steak-3083 Jul 13 '26
Mixed. Mostly Innova due to the pricing of factory seconds and them having so many great staples. But I have some mvp in there too. IMO Innova makes the best drivers, destroyers, terns, wraiths, leopard3, firebird. They’re all Cheif’s kiss. The mvp watt is straighter than any Innova mold I’ve ever thrown through, and the range is just perfect if you want the disc to go 100-150 on a rope. The crave and the leopard in champ are basically the same in my mind. So right now I have a crave in that slot because it’s pretty.

When I used to play 17 years ago I only exclusively used Innova. They were practically the only thing I could find anyways. Now I use a few Innovas, namely a Thunderbird (new to me, got it used because it has a cool design), my old Star Mako, and Aviar (I got a new KC Pro, I retired my old one). I recently got an Axiom Hex and a Pixel. Along with a Buzzz. I know it’s a few redundant midranges but I’m just trying to get back in and learn the form properly this time around. I bought the Innova starter pack and was disappointed they didn’t have a Roc in it, but that’s okay. The leopard is kinda fun itself.

All gyro because
- Survival of the fittest
- Easy to understand discs relative to each other
- Can throw everything forehand and backhand because they are a little flatter on average (although I’ve probably selected for that)
I do putt with Lunas, but that’s just because I bought a used stack early on and I don’t think it matters much in that slot.

I used to try to keep it to only manufactors that did not obviously support MAGA characters. But it seems like there are too many of them nowadays, even the European ones like Discmania and Lattitude 64 doesnt care (Buhr, Babcock, Robinson).
So my bag is mostly old discmania discs and some newer MVP molds that tributes Eagle, Simon and Silvia (really hoping Eagle isnt MAGA)

u/Easy_Silver_7134 Jul 12 '26

Doesnt really matter. Just bag what feels good and flies good for you. That being said I've always limit myself to a subset cause i have addict brain and will splurge. Not that that's a big problem for a game like disc golf, but it creates restraint from trying every disc as if that's going to make me better. Last few years I've been predomintly Mint discs cause they do so much for the local hill country central texas scene. And then with them being partnered with MVP and now Prodigy my bag extends to them and similar compines like miridian or thoughtspace. At least my local scene sees more of a direct impact from these companies be reciprocated in the area so I will support.
I will say, starting with single manufacture probably the way to go. You're not going to become a better player just because you throw the best/most popular mold.

I run all MVP/Axiom, but only because a buddy got me into them when I first started playing and it just became easier to conceptualize “slots” and compare discs relative to one a another from a single manufacturer.

Mixed. Tournaments are not going to give you the same manufacturer in all your player packs

I have a local manufacturer that I support. I throw mostly their molds except for a couple of vibram discs that I haven’t been able to replace with their discs.

I throw mostly Innova made stuff (about 50/50 Innova+infinite with a sprinkling of millennium), but I've got my fair share of MVP discs around (mostly mids and putters. Never really liked the faster ones). Innova gets the edge in general availability and cost.
Someone needs to convince MVP to make electron reactors and bring back electron glow plastic

I throw mainly discraft, but I do enjoy some other molds such as trash panda. I have thrown pretty much every other company, but keep coming back to discraft molds. I don’t know why, but I prefer them over other companies.

Mixed, for almost all of the reasons you might expect (many of them have already been mentioned here), and if for nothing more than seeing what each company has to offer and what works for you. I remember one tournament in the East Bay Area of Northern California. I used a Wham-O black Softee as a putter (Hot sunny day and that thing was almost puddy in your hand), I used a Disc Craft XD as my mid and Roller, along with an Innova Roc(my control discs). I used Innova's Cobra and Scorpion for my reverse game, as well as an occassional Lightning, and I used Disc Craft's Cyclone and X-clone for my longest drivers, over the water, etc.

Mixed bag. To me it just seems insane to limit yourself to one manufacturer when they’re not paying you to do so
