I lost my main distance driver today down by the river. It was a cold and windy day and I lost my Wave disc on the first throw.
I wasn't worried that much about the throw. It was windy but I thought the disc was stable enough to finish back to the right on a downhill throw. It turned too far left in the wind and landed in some deep leaves. I thought I would be able to find it easily enough but when I started looking for it the leaves were a lot deeper than I thought.
In hindsight, I should have warmed up on an easier hole and typically I do but the city had closed the road from flooding. I had to drive all the way around to get to a parking lot farther away from hole one so I started on the fifteenth hole. It wasn't all that bad a throw but the wind and a slight release angle issue caused a problem.
I did manage to find a pre-flight number Star Wraith while I was looking for my lost Wave disc and the owner let me keep it when I called them. They were far away from the course and didn't want to bother coming up to get it.
I threw the Star Wraith a couple of times and it seems like a nice stability so I'm going to bag it for a while. These are very nice discs too but they fade and skip a lot and I need to adjust where I throw to account for that.
I think I will order another replacement for my Wave disc if I can find one. They all tend to all fly a bit differently though depending on the run. I have a lot of discs but many of them don't fly as well for me as a new Wave disc would.
