I had recently lost a disc that may still be floating down the Spokane river. I have used it for almost 2 years and it doesn’t seem to be a mold that is currently in production. I saw an ad or video that showed the Latitude 64 Fuse in it. I asked a card mate, who had one, if I could throw it a few times. It had a slow turnover and a bunch of glide. I ended up ordering one and this was the second day of throwing it.

A.W.O.L.

Hole 7 is very challenging because of it’s narrow fairway. I threw the new Fuse with a slight hyzer and it flipped up to flat and went straight for a long time with a slight turn at the end.

Even though I throw a lot of drives, enough of them aren’t that great…. when you throw that one drive that flies wonderfully, you tend to forget the others.
This is the fairway that disc has to travel. The tee pad is on top of that little rise straight ahead.
It’s funny… with the little improvements I believe I am making… it doesn’t always show on the scorecard. I have been struggling trying to improve playing a bunch of holes at Farragut better than last year.

Wreckreator Hole 18

I decided to do a few sets of drives on Wreckreator hole 18…

A solid drive with my Discraft Thrasher. This is a long shot for birdie. I do want to get a lighter version of this disc to see if I can get the disc going from side to side a bit more from it.
The Innova Archon was the best drive from the second set. This should result in a stress-free par.
The Latitude 64 Ballista was the best drive from the third set. This should result in a par most of the time.
My Latitude 64 Musket was a solid drive on the fourth set. An easy par should be the result most of the time.

In addition to the Fuse, I have recently purchase a K1 Soft Berg from Kastaplast. I already have a K1 and a K3. The K1 soft has great plastic which also allows a better hold of the disc because it’s more flexible.

Earlier in the year, when I was choosing my bag, I had decided to not throw my Ballista. After some though and a few throws, I decided to add it back to the bag for some specific shots. Hole 18 on Wreckreator and hole 11 on A.W.O.L. are well suited for this disc. My Thrasher has potential to replace it, but I needs it to have a bit more turn to it either from buying a lighter weight version or throwing my current disc a lot more.

  1. When a door closes, a window will open…or when one disc goes down the river, another disc shows up in your card mates bag! And with the new cart, you can always carry more discs to choose from and not have to make decisions at home that can effect the outcome of a game for lack of choices! Also, nice drives!
