THE DRONE

Post by superq »

Picked up a Drone in herrington and threw it a lot. This is the midrange I was missing. long and extremely overstable with a nice finish. Never had a midrange that would hold a line like the drone does. :D

Wasp, that was tight, Buzz, even better(Buzz-d, sweet)

Good for headwinds and tailwinds? Long shots and short? What can't this disc do?

it is like apples and oranges. The drone is not as long as the buzz but it is very dependable for a midrange hyzer shot. The same shot with the Buzz and it will try to fly out and be deep.

BUZZ is different.

Is a flash better than a crush? Is a pred better than a challenger?

How can you compare like that?

I think we should just agree that the drone is better than a Puma and leave it at that <grin> :twisted:

If I had to pick just 1 of the 2 it would be the BUZZZZ. The Drone is a great disc however. Thrown flat and high to the right, you can count on it to come hyzering back to the earth. It is also good for those short S shots. If you turn the crap out of it, it will go flat, then finish left. I cannot get a Buzzzzzz to do that.

throw a Buzz over the top on hole 4 at rice. Throw a buzz flat on hole 18 at the lake. Throw a buzz on..... man it is just a different disc. It would be like saying A mop is better than a broom... Probaly cant hurt to have one of each. :twisted:
