    All three are great discs it's all about that hand feel. I bag an ethereal pathfinder I dig it but i gotta say I love how even people who don't like the buzz still throw really well with it. Damn thing is undeniable.

    Love the breakdown and example throws! I've been playing disc golf for 15 years but just recently started diving deeper into it, looking into proper technique and how to really improve your game. I realized that I was probably not doing myself any service throwing only distance drivers and putters 😅 Definitely looking at picking one or two of these up for spring, leaning Hex.

    I've noticed the ESP and Tour Series ESP swirl this year all came out kind of slick. Was kind of upset about it but after playing a handful of rounds they break in really well. Buzzz SS ESP swirl are my favorite. I didn't like Buzzz for quite a long time, now they're some of my favorite discs

    I actually had the same independent thought about Though Space beating in fast. I had only hit a few trees (5-7 range) and noticed it started to turn just about every throw where out the box it help every release angle consistently. Didn't know that was even a theory that was being discussed. Still bag the pathfinder because it feels great and still goes really straight.
    .Nice video! Enjoyed the 3 way battle.

    Beat in Reactor > Hex. Flies the same but fills my hand better.
    Also Hex has a wider rim than the Buzzz, so it should have more distance potential. It's less so that it has more glide/gyro, and definitely the wider rim.

    I think you should try o midrange battle with your truth lineup vs the hex, a neutron reactor which is one tick more stable, and an eclipse glow reactor which is one more tick again. I swapped the glow reactor for a pyro in my bag cause I wanted more stability for that slot so that's also an option but that starts to move beyond truths into beat up justice territory

  • @SethDStanley
    @SethDStanley ปีที่แล้ว

    Good test! In my experience, the Pathfinder is dead straight, like Glitch straight, while the Hex tends to slowly ride whatever angle you give it with a nice finish. I actually bag both, the Lizottle Hex and Pathfinder, since I find they fly different enough. The eclipse plastic definitely makes the Hex a tad more overstable like the Buzzz.

    Throws great shots with the Buzzz..."I would throw either of these two, but not the buzzz" lol. I hear you. I've always thrown the buzzz really well (especially eliteZ), but there's something about the feel of it that I prefer other mids. I currently throw a Chameleon Core in that slot. Maybe a little more understable than the buzzz, but I don't have an understable mid in my bag. I'm thinking the core would be closer to the flight of that TSA disc

    I feel like you would probably enjoy the buzz more if you took the time to clean off the flashing the way we've talked about and if you threw it a little more, it's reliability in terms of its stability fits with everything that i've heard you talk about and granted you don't like it. I'm not here to convince you otherwise, but I'm just saying in general it lines up a lot with a lot of other things that you've talked about and that'll be your preferences and that sharpness and the way it feels in your hand does get better when you take the time to dress it
