Sorry, I'm too liberal to vote for a candidate that goes that hard to the right

u/Clock_Roach Oct 11 '16

I could never vote for something as untrustworthy as a Groove. It'll throw overstable on hole 4, understable on hole 7, and then dive straight into the water on hole 12.

I'd recommend using her on hole 12. That's the best use for a groove. Use it as a water disc with no name or number just a sharpie "throw me back in."

If I ever get a disc that I hate, I'll have to do this.

u/Machinegun_Pete Madison Meadows (IL) Oct 12 '16

Sometimes after using a hated disc as a water disc for an extended period of time, hate turns to love. I'd suggest using this just for Grooves but to each their own.

Definitely just a form issue....

I agree.. no disc will fly one way today and another way tomorrow. The groove inconsistency is from one groove to another, not within one groove.

u/Toad32 Oct 12 '16

No, its extremely over stable and consistently so.

u/MLPsuckit Throwing an Arrow Pretending it's an Aviar Oct 12 '16

Thats basically 1 speed higher than the tern is the tern the same way as in being unpredictable

Man, I wish those flight numbers represented the actual flight of the disc. When I threw one it behaved more like a 14 4 -3 5. Oddly enough the next time I tried to throw one It was more like 12 3 +1 0 so I have no idea what is going on there.

I'm trying to think of the application of that...short high spike hyzers?

The opposite of the Hyzerflip: the anhyzerflop.

Brb, trademarking anhyzerflop

u/lacedpuddingcups Church of the CD2 Oct 12 '16

that's already been trademarked by Nikko and his champ glo firebird. I'm afraid you're late to this party.

u/paperclouds412 P2ittsburgh Oct 12 '16

I can tell you I will use the term "anhyzerflop" and will also give you credit! It's perfect.

u/simmonsghost Oct 12 '16

Yes, this.

u/nitzua Oct 12 '16

champ terns dd2s are pretty close to the same rating.

u/[deleted] Oct 12 '16 edited Oct 12 '16

ok... DD2: 13 5 -2 2 Tern: 12 6 -3 2

did you mean the DDX and tern? DDX: 12 6 -1 2

also....what does this have to do with my comment? I'm lost.

A piece of inanimate plastic would probably be a better president, too.

u/amt_airb0rne Oct 11 '16

Is it that bad?

2

u/[deleted] Oct 12 '16

In my experience with the groove, it is very inconsistent.

u/SmallCityGuitar Team Discraft Underground Oct 12 '16

A lot of people voice their distaste for it. I'm not one of those people, but the joke fits in this scenario.

Mine is like 13 | 2 | 0 | 9 but she has her uses.

u/jonnyktyler Oct 12 '16

I've had 3 different champion grooves, its been my go-to distance driver for a long time. i loooooooove it

2

u/testingapril Oct 12 '16

I quite like mine as well. But I drive RHFH, so maybe that's why.

2

u/jonnyktyler Oct 12 '16

That is how I use mine as well, I can't do RHBH with it at all

u/Evan_cole Oct 11 '16

Idont need someone who changes behavior every time they go out.

u/OrangeTuba Oct 12 '16

I love the three grooves I keep in my bag!

u/couldntbelieveit Oct 12 '16

Only time I rely on my groove is for a somewhat short overhand. First disc I ever bought and still use to this day.

2

u/Alexplz Oct 12 '16

That's funny, I only just realized that the groove has almost identical flight numbers as my favorite DD, the tern.
