At first my pro destroyer was more overstable but the plastic is perfect for tuning. After bending the disc downward a couple times it flies as straight as I want it to.

But if you want something you KNOW will still go left into a headwind they are GREAT!!

I have Star, Champion and Pro, and they all do different things into the wind, but for wide open long throws, NOTHING throws farther than the Star one.

I am a firm lover of the Tee-Rex, but plain and simple, I'm getting another 30-40 feet with the Destroyer. It has it's place in the bag, you know, when you just have to unload on something.

When I need to crush one, on target however, It's a Tee-rex

I have a few Pro D's, haven't thrown them yet...

Crazy to hear they are more overstable...

I dont know, i have 4 star destroyers (175, 172,169, 168) a champion destroyer (175) and i just got two pro destroyers (175, 168) which i have only gotten to throw 1 round with.

My observations are the star are more overstable as my my 168 flys consistently farther and has less of a fade. And my 175 has a big low speed fade. I have only gotten to throw my pro destroyers today and there didnt seem to be much difference between them forehand( to me they went really straight really fast!) But back hand the 175 i had to throw with anhyzer and the 168 i had to throw with hyzer.

I have three Champion Destroyers from which I've removed the stamps for dying. If anyone would like one custom dyed, let me know. One is clear and two are pale pink. The pink ones could have an orange base rather than a pink base if you're averse to pink. I can go a lot lower than $25 unless someone reminds me that I agreed not to. I don't recall ever seeing a minimum permitted price on Champion Destroyers other than the minimum permitted price on Champion discs generally.

I am blown away by the Champion Destroyer!!!! I have been thrown CE FX firebirds for the past 6 years as my sidearm disc and within 1 round of using the Destroyer I am throwing 50 feet farther and birdied 2 holes I haven't birdied in years!! The disc is amazing. Just like my FX, but faster and longer. Great sidearm roller too!!!! WOW is all I can say. I have a new weapon!

This is what I did to the pink ones. I think they are sold.




This is what I've dyed this month, not counting a few discs I did not take pictures of. http://www.glowfoto.com/users3/bruce....php?aid=39016
It is mostly all sold, but I could make more.

just spent 4 rounds at johns island, sc w/ some destroyers. my domey pros were definately less HSS than my stars. maybe a little less low speed overstable as well. the pros were noticeably more domey than the stars, but the stars still had a nice, consistent dome. pros definately more grippy and rippable, and flew like a new dx wraith. all discs were new 168-170. it was mildly breezy. i was getting about 450 at best.

I've tried the Star Destroyer out on the practice field, and doesn't hold a candle to a Blurr

I am starting to get a little sick of the Gateway shills all over this site. I got a Blurr directly from Dave Mac. It flies like it has a big hole in it. Possibly the least glide (without being overstable) of any disc I've ever thrown. Now stop it. I would gladly trade it for a bag of Doritos.

I never really liked the Blurr either but I can still throw it 450'. The ones I had were beefy though.
