golf discs https://tinyurl.com/zcax9
There's a load of different weights involved and, depending on the disc, it will have different characteristics in flight. If you're using baskets, proper discs are pretty much a must. Like steeker, I generally use my regular discs: heavies, 165 + for driving and the smaller ones for finisse appoachers, 133's or 110's depdending on wind conditions

We will be on our dope geared bikes, the Benotto and the Cramerotti.

FYI
So finally made it down to MEC today (4:30ish) no more park tool (witch i knew) they are now selling fitzer, but no pedal wrenches in stock. Cycle therapy (great place to get park tools) the chic convinced me on the shop one $ but very nice & beefy.
RE:Gboy that’s terrible that your buddies locked you out next time out i'll bring some eggs & we'll hit there place!
Cheers
