A Disc Golf channel for everyone, but will lean toward content that is useful for players in my range. Both age, and ability. I'm an MA2 player (recently promoted myself), with a PDGA (#rating181955) of 856. I've been a player for about three years, and look forward to playing for a long time yet.
I've noticed that a lot of the content I am seeing is geared toward advanced and pro level throwers, so I want to be able to offer videos that have a slightly broader appeal.

Quick Rips Discraft Focus
มุมมอง 18021 วันที่ผ่านมา
Today's Quick Rip is the Discraft Focus. This is the Anthony Barella CT Swirl version. The Focus has been around for a while, originally created for the Ace Race way back in 2009, I saw these on Tombstone Discs website, and thought they would be something new to throw. I don't really review a lot of putters, so I'll be putting with these as well.

Today we are having another look at the Ocean Discs Sea Turtle, now with two brand new plastics, the Ocean Waste Swirly Arctic, and the Ocean Waste Bubble. *Note although Atlantic Discs sent me a replacement disc, they didn't sponsor this video.

Gameproofer Update Nov 2024
มุมมอง 7202 หลายเดือนก่อน
With the latest firmware update from GameProofer we should now have more accurate data and the Nose Angle, Hyzer Angle and Max-G are out of beta and ready for prime time. Let's get the update and see what's shakin'. Hint, it's my camera. Not sure why the video is jumping like that at the start. Probably a stabilization thing, I'll try to correct it for the next video. Thanks for watching everyone.

Today is something special... (OK, I know every day is something special, that's just my attitude about most things), a brand new mid-range from a new company called Ocean Discs. It's the Sea Turtle I'm throwing it today in all three of their plastics, two of which are made of 60% recycled ocean waste plastic. That's right, they are using the floating garbage to make discs.

Greybeard Disc Golf Review Latitude 64° Brave
do you know if they will be adding a disc golf simulator to it?
@@alexanderroccobakke1269 It's not on the list of features they plan to release.
I got my black mystery box in the mail today and they sent me two methods, lmao. Pretty annoyed about it, what’s the point of paying the extra money for the black box for an 8 disc assortment with doubles?
@rorypritchard Right? In my Gyropalooza box I got 2 total eclipse Craves, and a second total eclipse Vanish. Felt like they were getting to the bottom of the bin a bit.
Do they have nose angle yet?
@Lozzamozza71 yes, they added it in BETA to an update recently and then after another update it's no longer in Beta.
Game proofer not giving you nose angle is a big turn off for me. Seems to be the most talked about aspect of a good throw. Im glad I spent the extra $100 on the Techdisc
@badass96ta they eventually added it, so it's getting better. The latest release now includes nose, hyzer and release angle but it was definitely a beta when it first launched. With how understable it makes the disc though, it may be most useful throwing into the net but again, I still don't think we age getting distance if it's thrown into a net.
Yo stumbled across your channel, we played at BC open together. Video looks crispy! I'm curious how the proto balance flies in comparison to the glacier
@discgolfchronicles Yo right back atcha! I'll find out today. I have thrown the Glacier a couple of times and it's much straighter than I expected, and I'm filming throws of the Gyropalooa Box today. Stay Tuned!!!
I got exact same discs!
@@JarkkoTo that's wild! At least I didn't get any doubles, like in the Gyropalooza box.
So i throw lighter disc then most i haven't bought a mystery box yet because i don't want to get sick with a bunch of heavy disc i cant throw is there a mystery box that is just for lighter weight disc?
@H00pster66 Not that I've ever seen. I remember thi king that last year, as I would rather be throwing stuff in the mid to high 160s, and the only lighter discs I saw were in the Gyropalooza box, but still it was only a couple of discs out of the whole box. I would love to see a box with the same discs but specifically in lighter weights. MVP does a bunch of discs in Fission plastic, so it shouldn't be that hard for them.
@greybearddiscgolf ive been thinking about baggin some of the fission plastic. I been finding most of my disc threw fac2 site. Ive been able to pick up teebirds thunderbirds in the 150g range still as overstable as the max but they turn quicker in flight.
@H00pster66 In that case, might I suggest something from the massive distance menu? The Fission Dimension in 166g flew amazing for me. I did a video on it and the Defy earlier in the year. If you have a bit more torque you can also try thr Fission Time Lapse, again flew great for me. In the Innova line, the Pro Plastic is absolutely slept-on in my opinion. My Pro Destroyer at 166 is one of my most trusted discs for distance.
Can you show how you made that shelf?? Looks pretty sweet
It's some 3d printed brackets from Thingiverse with a couple of 3/4" wooden dowels going through them. www.thingiverse.com/thing:3683878
@ what a simple solution that’s awesome thank you sir
You were kidding that dd3 is really pretty! The glacier is the big win here i think. Its a lovely disc to throw.
@craig5447 I just about parked 5 from the reds today with it. 15 feet short and sank the putt. Just like the practice throws, pretty dead straight. It has tremendous glide, too. I thought I threw it really low, but it just stayed in the air all the way.
How did you get your box already I ordered mine a 2 weeks ago and still haven’t received it or update on shipping
@joestierhoff589 did you order from the US or Europe? I bought mine early because I'm in the Shield Club so we get to buy a day early, which was Boxing Day here in Canada.
@@greybearddiscgolf I bought it a day earlier also but I’m in us
I was hoping the top comment would mention David Letterman.
@@joshs7467 I always thought more like John Larroquette... at least the most recent John Larroquette from the new Night Court.
What kind of brackets do you have holding up your collection looking to make a storage system
@fish3rman84 I found a file on Thingiverse and then found a guy on Facebook who could print them. www.thingiverse.com/thing:3683878.
the glacier looks exactly like the Kevin Jones tour series Halo champion roc...
You hit the nail on the head there. I just looked at the Rock's I have, ( a regular haloand a champion), and they are nearly identical. Same dome, but the Roc3 has a bit of a bead, and the Glacier has no bead so it should fly pretty much the same. Good eye!!!
@greybearddiscgolf thank you for validating my opinion! I was almost 99% sure!
@brandonfitzgerald6330 I wish I could post pictures in the comments. I'd show you exactly.
It looks like in almost every black box, they put in a instinct and a fd
Then a splice for the specialty disc even tho it's clearance in the eu rn
@Kennb19 They could be clearing out a bunch of stuff. Discmania posted a video a little while ago looking forward, and they are going to have some big changes. Stuff like the Active line will disappear altogether and molds will move around to different lines, and I think he said they were dropping the Methos, so it's natural they would want something to replace it.
@@greybearddiscgolf yeah I want to buy more boxes but idk if I want to choose the known variety of the red boxes or the cool 3-4 discs in the black box haha it's a huge dillema
Great video! 💪🛡️
Thank you kindly! Now if it stops pouring rain, I can get out and throw them, although as my mom says, "Whattaya made of sugar?" It's the West Coast. It rains. I need tonget over it.😅
@ wish you the best and thanks for doing these videos. ✌️
Great video!! Thanks for sharing.
That Glacier is a beauty.....love the way it looks.
We'll see if it flies the way I hope too. I would like to see it be not as overstable as my Pyro, but more overstable than my Hex.
Certainly one of the prettiest discs in my collection.
@@greybearddiscgolf I have a Crave with those same colors .... very stable for me and I love it.
I’m so excited for mine! 🎉 Awesome box!
@@TateFuhriman Thanks! I'd love to see what you get. I'm going to be throwing that Glacier at some weekend club events tomorrow.
I was Putting with the Luna. Saw Hammes putting with the focus. So i bought 1. Regular putting plastic. And really like it putting wise than the Luna. I was using the Jawbreaker Focus. Then bought Barela's CT Swirl. I really love these CT Swirls to putt with. The focus is more deeper than the luna. I prefer the deeper kind of putters.
doofenshmirtz singin?
Oh man, memory unlocked!!! I think it was actually Louis Armstrong. The TV was on the Classic Holiday Music station.
Merry Christmas from Finland! Bummer you got duplicates, but at least they are great discs! I got a pitch, two pixels (electron & r2), entropy, paradox, 159g crave, drift and 158g tesla. A real noodle arm box, which is what I wanted!
Another great video Chris. I've noticed, lots of the canadian sold boxes, were very limited in Molds (like yours) or in plastics (i got all Neutrons other than a eclipse Detour) Was hoping to see some more variety but it is what it is with these boxes. Ive thrown my vanish a few times down at Bowen glow rounds, many people are finding them not very flippy at all, possibly really needs to be beat in. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
@mcooper4618 Thanks Mike. Right back at you!
Merry Christmas chris! This is the best channel on TH-cam!
@Mark0id Thanks Parky Mark!!!
Santa throws Gyro.
@michaelschoen9201 Starting to yeah. A few have crept into my bag this year. The Detour for sure, the Range went directly into my bag after the Space Race, plus I have a Pyro that may lose out to the Balance if it flies like I suspect.
2 doubles , a bit sad,, happy holidays
@benoitsouligny863 Thanks, same to you! I would have liked to get a photon or a Detour, but I am OK with the pulls. A couple new ones I don't have. This makes I think 5 glow craves in my collection, so I may just post a couple on FB. The white glow on the new Crave with the black Lab2 stamp is pretty amazing.
@ i got i double the vanish, but got alot of stuff i wanted, resistor proton,hex and tesla r2, reactor eclipse,neutron inertia…only problem 7 white discs and i live in quebec where its already white so cant really try them till spring😵💫
@benoitsouligny863 Sounds like a disc dyer's dream. Just Disc has some great tutorials on getting started with dying discs!
Niklas just wanted a shallower tactic that has more glide, thats what he said on his finnish video when showcasing his new creator disc. Im so glad discmania has a ”zone” now.
Great video, glad to be enjoying this era of disc golf online. My drop is sitting on a shelf waiting for spring 🙂
Thanks for your video and great to hear Atlantic Discs replaced the disc. Disc #2 coming in 2025. 🎉
Can you make a video of throwing Gameproofer to a net? It would be nice to see the update delays of it. I know from testing that Techdisc can be thrown at least like every 5-8 seconds which is very handy when making small gradual form corrections with slower throws
@putkipihvi324 Great idea, I did some net throws previously, th-cam.com/video/fq_gFoH0cnw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZvEGfmYvzvzkaWhx, but I'd like to see it with the updated software and firmware. Plus, I want to put the tag on an overstable disc to test my theory that adding the tag creates understability.
@@greybearddiscgolf that would be great! Discs also get more understable when led's are put on the discs for evening rounds so thats absolutely true
Nice comparison! If the prices ever come down, I'm interested in a tech disc, so good content! One thing about the distance measurements is that the other one was flight distance, while the range finder gives the total distance with rolls and skips. edit: Doesn't explain 50 ft, but will explain 10-20 ft easy.
And as we've developed this comment thread into a very useful chat about both of these items, it's become clear that the Tech Disc is truly not meant to be thrown in the field. What really helped me realize this was the last update I did that proved to me that the sensor tag made any disc it was on much, much more understable. The tech disc flight path can be adjusted by changing the flight numbers in the software, so how it actually flies is completely irrelevant. My next test is going to be putting the GameProofer on a very overstable disc to see how it affects the flight. Plus we just got another software update to go with the Ver.7 of the tag firmware which gives us improved accuracy, mass deletion, and two new readings, Launch Angle and Quality of Release. If it ever stops pouring rain here in Port Alberni, I'll get some more throws in and see how it's progressing. Stay tuned!
I love the spore. I also have a cloud stone spore. Any time I find a place to throw it I’ll pull that out. Perfect for 1 disc rounds at a pitch and putt course
@StevenKitchensDiscGolf I just have the Cloud Stone version, and it's permanently in my bag for putts I need to release from below the rim and float up into the chains and for buttery smooth nose up approach shots.
Another way to remove tag is use dental floss wrapped around a finger on each hand and in a sawing motion pull the floss under the tag till it comes off
@AutoRotate1000 That's actually brilliant. I'll have to make sure it's proper floss I think. That plasticky tape style wouldn't be robust enough I think.
Love the video pretty sure the vanguard numbers a wrong just a heads up
Whaaaa? You mean it's not a 2 speed disc? I absolutely messed that up. I copy and paste the titles in, so I think I just didn't update the flight numbers. Thanks for watching! Stay tuned, my Gyropalooza box should be here I the next couple of days.
Another great video!!
@gannonbuhr2005 Thanks man, I appreciate the support. I can't wait to throw that Splice.
Loved the video, and I'm excited to open my first box!!!
@@TateFuhriman Let us know if you got any real bangers!
Good video and great box🔥
My group tried the "Meep Meep" GPS disc tracking alarm system, it attaches identically, and it too adds understability to any disc. Thanks for sharing your trails and experience!
Wild. It must be due to the addition of weight in the middle. MVP published one of their lab reports talking about why their glow is generally speaking more overstable, and they say it because the glow material makes the rim heavier.
Sweet box! thanks for the video
@tonypeterson1204 I'm pretty happy with the box overall. I am now sitting patiently for my Gyropalloza 2024 box, so stay tuned for that opening, and of course the Black Box from Discmania too.
New sub, I loved getting the mystery boxes. I got the first black box edition, great marketing!
@route5discgolf Right, thank all the commenters for proving my wife right. She's going to love this. This is my third year doing the Discmania Mystery Boxes, and if I recall correctly, the boxes from two years ago actually had 9 discs for the same price then they went to 8 discs last year for the Mystery of the Lost Stones. Still a pretty good deal in my books.
Good thing I didn't order one.
@HoffaJedi Do you already have most of these molds?
@greybearddiscgolf I only throw understandable disc's for the most part. I hate meat hooks
@@HoffaJedi Except for the Zone, right? You gotta have a Zone... Everyone needs a Zone. Did I mention I love the Zone?
This is the same stuff they have been pumping out in these boxes for three years...just overstock
Maybe Europe box is the move

@bobbymcbride1599 I really should have known that, I did a comparison a while ago with the Iron Samurai 4 and the EMac Truth.
My god, that PD2 with an anhyzer-top will be a BEEF-CAKE🥩🥩🎂🎂
actually insane, probably the best one i've seen yet
Love it bro. Keep the vids coming.
Thanks for the great review! I was just wondering the best way for a 🇨🇦 to pick up a mystery box so I appreciate the tip to order from EU!
@aaronlong6002 This year, they shipped UPS so I got a duty charge of about 25 bucks on top of shipping which was 19€. I put together a cart on the US store and the shipping would have been $98 CAD. Plus exchange on the box would have been close to $240 CAD from the US store. From the Europe store without the $16 in rewards, about $160 CAD to my door.
@@greybearddiscgolf Good to know $160 CAD isn’t bad for 8 discs The Iron Samurai was a great stamp and the S-line P2 I’d never seen before, enjoy the discs! Loved the video keep up the good content:)
@aaronlong6002 Yeah, I think the s-line P2 may be my choice for best pull. Although... that Splice is soooo nice.
You had me at ocean plastic recycled. What an awesome idea. I have to get a sea turtle!
@andrewm700 The ocean Waste Marine is so different than the Swirlies or the Pacific you could probably use both. I'm currently bagging both the OWMarine and the Swirly Pacific.
Thanks for the video. I like Discmania, but the selection you got seemed limited to me. Almost exclusively overstable putt & approach or overstable distance drivers. Where are the understable discs and the 5-10 speeds?
I guess if you ask a bunch of pros what they want, you get something that's different than what a bunch of "not pros" want. So, looking just at the 10 discs available in the DNA series, (and my guess is that we are going to get 10 different ones for the Black Box), you have: 2 - 12 speed 2 - 9 speed 7 - 7 speed 2 - 5 speed 2 - 4 speed 1 - 2 speed And to my arm at least 6 are very overstable for me, with two being borderline, (I'm looking at you FD), and two that are pretty straight. Maybe they'll fill the gaps in the next box? We'll likely see an Enigma or Paradigm, the new Notion Putter, maybe a DD and an Instinct or Essence? If you haven't already seen it, I suggest you go to Discmania's TH-cam Channel and look for the "Official Lineup Updates" video from about 4 months ago. They're gonna do a fairly big shakeup if they institute it all.
You start seeing discs at about the 4:30 mark.
@@Carback27 Good point. This is exactly the feedback I need. I definitely talk too much in my videos. I was thinking of doing a couple of reviews where I just voice over, kind of like how Six Sided Discs does it or Cheating Lefty.
these look great, will have to check them out, thanks for vid.
