TRU DAT. XL's do glide. I never could control them consistently, but haven't thrown them in a while. Do you think you get more D with an XL than with a flash under the same conditions? Which is more predictable for you?

I get some good D with a flash but the XL is way more consistent and it can still bomb so thats why i lean to an XL. Flashes are too squirrly. I may sacrifice 20-30 ft on a drive but I'd rather have it in the fairway.

There needs to be a new system for measuring comparitive stability. Have some pro throw a whole bunch of shots and measure the speed and turning rate at different times in the flight. That way we know there is some accuracy behind the stability numbers you see on the charts.

I have a 150 Flick. It does great in the wind and is very hard to turnover. I can crush with it too.
