Mind Bender vs Mako3 vs Buzzz SS - Straight Midrange Battle!
Спорт
You guys told me that the Mako3 vs Buzzz video was NOT the best way to find the greatest straight flying midrange out there, so in this video I compare the Mindbender, mako3 and Buzzz SS to see which one is truly the best straight flying midrange (out of the ones I've thrown!

Glad you enjoy it!
After watching 3 of your videos, definitely got a new fan! Keep up the great work!
The buzzz ss is my favorite mid. Super clean release and a beautifully slow turning disc. Let’s see a firebird vs raptor vs felon comparison

I really really like the disc compare and contrast rounds you've been doing. So very much better than just somebody throwing them each in a field. A whole round just tells us so much more
ayyy here's the mind bender video! the content just keeps getting cleaner and cleaner and better and better man. Keep it up!

Clash Discs Berry has taken the straight midrange spot in my bag and I'm loving it!
Your "caffeinated" style (for lack of a better term) is really fun- enjoying the videos.
I'll throw my chips in for the pathfinder by thoughtspace. absolutely love that disc and it doesn't get enough attention.
I just bought a big z meteor and a mind bender love them both the mind bender has some fade at the end for me anyway. Great video 👍
Mako3 goes where you throw it, helps correct my release angle. top 15 disc for me
Glad you checked out the mind bender as I was a commenter about it on your last video. all that wind it must have been hard to see which was the straightest.
Fission Hex is straighter and flies further than the Buzzz SS we have. I do want to try a Mind Bender some day but don't have need right now.

Fun channel. I recently played with the midnight prowl 2 and she’s a beast, hyzer to flat. What kind of camera do you use?
I have a lot of mids and absolutely love the Mind Bender, I have two.
Anthony, curious what you think about the Mint Freetail. Understable 10 speed driver. I like it a lot.
if you put extra spin on Mako3 like Wysoki does it will fly TRUE to the numbers 100%

im a max weight star mako3 user so im bias but this was great to watch. my bag is going to increase because of this. i love mids~
I’ve had the same swirly star Mako3 in my bag for the last 3 years but the Mind Bender just kicked it out. The metal flake C-Line plastic feels great and the slight bit of extra glide puts the Mind Bender above the Mako3 for me
For a "super straight" disc even though its a putter you need to definitely try the "Habit" by Plastic Addicts, it is 100% the straightest disc I have ever thrown. With the amount of glide on it you can still throw it a good amount of distance even though its technically a putter
This was a fun video
Lat 64 Opto Compass is my go-to strait and shapeable mid range. Way less touchy than a Mako3 or BuZZZ SS. I bag a MD1 as well as it can handle a little bit more power and torque than my Compass
Can u put the lines on ur videos so we can see flights better?
FWIW Mako3 feels way better in max-weight star/halo star
Love your stuff man. Just really wish you’d have waited for a less windy day to compare these discs 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks! The buzz ss is in my bag but feel makes me not take it when I should. Guess I try the mind bender

I’m bagging the mindbender and the buzz, but definitely like the mindebender better. On another note, where did you get your hat?
Love my mind bender!
I enjoy the disc comparisons. Perhaps the next step beyond “which is the straightest/flippiest/longest/best of these 3 similar discs” is talking about shot selection or handling with 2 or 3 discs of the same class but with different flight profiles (e.g. fuse vs pyro vs buzz). Throw different lines depending on what the disc needs in the circumstances.

I've started putting with an infinite disc cohort for this exact effect. Also recently played a comp with a guy who putted with a comet and he was getting perfect straight glide for long range putts.
I've only been disc golfing for about 2 years now, but the Mako3 was one of my first discs, and I've since switched over to a bit of a Prodigy fanboy. But that said, I recently was gifted a Buzz from a friend so I thought I'd give it a shot. I've only thrown it for like 3 or 4 rounds, but I just don't like it, I think it's overhyped. My go to straight mid is currently the MX-3 or M4 (I didn't buy a brand new MX-3 so idk if they're straight flyers out of the box, but M4 definitely is!)

Star plastic mako3?
The Mind Bender is a near exact replica of the Mako3, and the differences between the two can pretty much be chalked up to cooling inconsistencies

You obviously don't have to make yourself choose the disk that wins on paper. There are always factors that can't be seen that affect your decision on whether to bag something or not.

You might be releasing it flat but they’re stable disc… you’re putting a lot of torque on them so they’re just turning over
