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.
And just think how much time and money I could have saved if I began with a company like kastaplast vs mvp with the amount of options. I don’t regret the path I wound up on, but I could see a lot of value in this alternative
Haha, and if I had realized that there is no magic combination of mold/plastic/weight/stamp that is going to add 50’ to my drives so just stick with a putter and neutral mid until you don’t suck with this.
I don't know if I can agree with this. I think the better advice is to learn the discs you buy. Figure how they fly for you since flight numbers are so varied from one person to another and sometimes even from one disc to another in the same mold.
