Jackalope is the best disc ever. Absolutely love this disc, it made me into a so much better golfer. Gosh darn love the Jackalope
Man, you guys talk about so many great things and I love your lists! I am so ready for you to reach 30k! Keep pushing
I can’t believe y’all did the berg like that
Love this channel. Interesting choice of must tries.
I'm brand new to disk golf this week. I really appreciate your time and effort putting these videos together for us, nubby players
Nice disc picks!! Thank you.
Glad to see the Järn getting the ❤ it deserves. If it’s not a Berg approach, it’s a Järn approach shot.

Well said 👏
great list, thank you! I just ordered a Jackalope, SWEET!!
I think the discraft glide is better than paradox does the same thing throws like a forehand when thrown backhand. Both great disc's but if you are used to throwing a buzz, you will be able to bomb a glide really far
love y’all’s content keep it up !
I say this out of love, and also as someone whose main backhand flaw is nose up...but your discs would fly so much truer to numbers, further and with better angles if you get closer to nose down. Lovingly, the internet. A series with the guys from Overthrow with one of those new disc chips would be VERY fun to watch
Love the praxis, flies straight and just works well.
Brooooo, I only bag 4 discs, and the Lift is one of them! Get it in Neutron plastic and it becomes and absolute bomber, and fantastic for wooded courses.
***Highly highly recommend the Love Putter in Taffy plastic from Jester Disc Golf. It has changed my game and has even taken over my Praxis spot, which I thought would never get challenged! The Love Putter!

Definitely going to buy a jackalope right now. Great vid!
I'm mainly a Caddy, slightly new to Disc Golf, and you've already taught me some cool stuff! I just got a Paradox so I'm excited to try that out since I'm a lower arm speed. I really want to try an Inner Core because that looks like so much as well. I definitely want to pick up a Jackalope now from seeing all the talk about it. You've gained a new sub and I SWEAR it's not because I would love a bag full of discs, but i would also love a bag for caddying 😂😂😂
Have a James Proctor Cookie but not thrown it much because its more stable than my Barsby Champ Glow Eagle. But i might give it a try again because the comfort is on another level.

The Tour Series Sunny Cookie is more overstable than the stock Steady Cookie. The Steady Cookie is much straighter and is more like the familiar Teebird-like flight but with a more comfortable rim.
I'll clip that... "The best disc in the Kastaplast lineup" while holding up the Berg (briefly) lol
I have some Graces and it's a great disc but I wouldn't recommend them for beginners, you're likely to throw it 180 feet and dump it hard til you learn how to actually whip a driver with some power. If you have low arm speed go for a Sapphire instead, they're lighter and have some turn which helps a lot when your form and power sucks early on. When you start turning the Sapphire over a lot and it stops working how you want it to that's when you know you've developed more power. For me the Lat 64 Glory changed my entire game. It's such a reliable forehand workhorse. It's the first disc I ever felt fully confident I can always shape what I need to out of it and Royal plastic is incredible so it stays overstable for a long time.

This, so much this. It seems like everyone is raving about how good of a beginner driver the Grace is, while I get 0 turn from my Orbit Grace on 400' pulls. I do have to say that the Grand plastic seems to beat it pretty fast, but there are tons of easier to throw drivers out there.
Very solid list, although that berg drop was a bit brutal XD. Clash just got the most delicious sounding discs. Very much need another paradox in my bag, lost a camo disc in the woods who would have thought haha. It was my go to turnover disc, made the turnover rollie easy. The gf is having luck with it as a straight flyer too just all around good stuff.
Aw man! I did not have one of these as a beginner. Oh well, having fun!
Shout out to the Jackalope! Also is great for flip up FHs if you need to hit a tunnel shot.
The Berg disrespect 😂😂. Your boy just won one of my dyed Bergs too haha. He got a kick out of that!
I'm new to disc golf but love y'alls channel and definitely need to check some of these out. Just bought 2 mystery boxes to get my first disks for my son and myself hopefully be out next weekend for our first time. I'm excited. 😎 keep up the great work guys got a new follow here.
I bag a Zone FLX ESP and a Jarn K3 Line and feel they are different enough to warrant them both. Great list and more ideas of discs to consider!
The berg psych out got me 😂 I love my Jarn and my berg, however. Happy to see mint at #1 too. Great content!!
Good list! From these I bag a beaten in Grace for the most US distance driver, Cookie for the main stable fairway slot and Paradox for those situations where you want to throw backhand flight with a forehand or vice versa 👌🏻
Grace max distance for a beginner? don’t think so. It’s my main distance driver and it pushes 430ft for me right now, but every beginner that I’ve let try the Grace can’t throw them very far. 11 speed is definitely not a speed most beginners can hit. Definitely one of the best molds ever made though. Consistent runs, very reliable.

Yup. I started out with a Grace and just dumped it all the time til I learned how to throw. I disc'd down to a Sapphire early on which come a lot lighter and have a lot more turn to help with low arm speed as a beginner. I'd bet most beginners could throw a Buzzz further than they could throw a Grace. It's a fantastic disc but it definitely requires a decent amount of power.

I want that Grip bag so bad 😂
Praxis in ethereal is my putting putter. I will also occasionally use it for approaches but my primary approach disc is the Slammer. Or the Pig if it's a hill or something and I need the disc to stick. I don't use the Praxis on long puts though because I find that it can really get some air and fly right over my basket. I use the Ohm on long putts.
You put the Berg at #1! COOL!
Gateway Apex is a beat in BOMBER grace. Lost my 2 year beat in grace and this took its spot and did even better.
Awesome list! Glad to see the buzzz ss get some shine. It's been my favorite midrange since I started playing a few years ago and really taught me how to throw pushing hyzers, hyzer flips, and turnovers. Also really like the buzzz ss for forehands when I have an awkward lie or footing is the best. Has amazing glide!

Been playing for about 3 months now. I really want to try a Grace out. I have a paradox and LOVE it. One of the discs that was given to me by a friend. It is wonderful. Great for those backhand right fade shots.
Järn has become my fav, I’ve thrown in from over 150 feet twice with it.

So happy you included the paradox! absolutely underrated! For the cookie, do you mean that "lowest" part of the rim being rounded? Like the Bohrium from Loft? it's a bummer there really wasn't a good view of it in the video. I love the feel of the bohrium and really need to check out the cookie if it's similar!

Yes it is similar but in my opinion even better than the bohrium! The bohrium is extremely low profil and the rounded rim makes it difficult to grip. The cookie is deeper, but still with the rounded inner edge.

I have a Streamline Lift in my glow bag because I couldn't find a glow Axiom Insanity (which is my favorite disc - at least my max weight fission ones anyhow). Insanity has the same numbers and is obviously by the same company and they fly the same for me. Also, BuzzzSS has a permanent spot in my bag. Oddly enough, I hate the Buzzz, though.

I would have put the caiman on here as an over stable mid that doesn't have that blunt hand feel that so many others in this slot have. Also sub out the jackalope for a doomsday blackout. Also I feel the westside sword is one of the most neutral distance drivers on the market and when I lost mine first round last tournament, I couldn't find a good replacement for it in the shop between rounds.
