ive been throwing a MS but just got a QMS in the mail

MS kicks [*****]! i dont hear much talk of this disc...
im excited to get out and toss the qms around

I throw the Aurora MS for an anhyzer midrange.

I tried the QMS but didn't really like the sharp rim. It's not a bad disc, it just wasn't for me. I use a Buzzz now for straight midrange shots.

I got one and before I threw it, I borrowed a friend's. Same weight and color, and didn't like the flight path. It was too stable/overstable for what I wanted. I wanted an understable to stable mid. I use one of those Pro classic rocs--the small diameter ones; they're great! Also, I picked up a candy classic roc (same disc, but with candy plastic) and it's pretty straight too, but a little more on the overstable side (wouldn't hold an anhyzer line as well).

the aurora ms shouldnt be over stable at all...i didnt get out today and throw the q but im guessing it is a lil over stable

qms is not a stable disc at all.....mine goes right or strait.....never left..

The MS, Element, and Buzzz/Breeze are all very similar discs, in my opinion. They are some of the best mids out there so just pick one and get consistant! That's the key to a good midrange game.

A good bit of wisdom there... don't change your disc everytime you hear of a new marvel on the market. Pick a disc and learn to control it. The best players I have seen are the old school guys who throw only a few different molds but can make them do ANYTHING. A disc can be understable to no end, but you have to throw it to make it go right. Any newbie will pull a nice hyzer with the most understable disc on the market. A good golfer should be able to throw any disc and control it. Not saying I am such a man, but I don't want to be one of these guys that HAS to have a certain color, certain run of a roc to make a certain shot.

I've thrown a couple of different QMS's, and in my opinion the clear ones fly the best. They are very true and have inpeccable glide, maybe the best glide I've ever seen out of a candy-type disc. The old school CE-type are OK, if you can find one without a manufacturing defect (I've looked closely at every one I've encountered and haev yet to see a perfect mold, usually there are small dimples on the inner rim or along the outer wing). They must be sanded because the edges are so sharp. The opaque ones do not fly as straight (faster with more turn and fade), but they seem a bit more effortless than the newer, clear ones. Essentially this disc is a less stable Champion Shark (and by this I mean a stable Champion Shark, as all the ones I've thrown have been Wasp/Roc overstable).

I will second or third the opinion that you need to stick to a disc and throw it and know what it will do. I throw the QMS and I can get it to do whatever I want it to do. Whatever line I start it on it will stay on that line and finish where it is suppose to. Thrown flat it will stay flat, thrown with hyzer it will stay a hyzer, thrown 'anny' and it will stay as an 'anny'. The only change that I really make to the throw is when I want to get it down range about 300-320ft, then I throw with a hyzer release and snap the fool out of it. It will flatten out, go a little right and finish on line to the original throw. And boy what glide it has.

I used to carry 3-5 mid-range discs, depending on the course, now I carry 2 discs, the QMS and Q-Sentinel. And I only throw the Sentinel on a really windy day and then only when I am throwing against the wind.

My bag used to consist of about 16-18 discs. I have learned through the wise wisdom of a great disc golfer that you if you learn only a select few discs and understand how they work then you can cut your discs in half or in most cases more. I now only carry 2 drivers, 2 mid-ranges, 2 putters(one for longer approaches) and a roller. I have gone out and learned these discs, and just by altering the release of the disc, I get them to their intended target. I have some more to learn, but my consistancy is much better then it was only 6 months ago.

Sorry for the drift, back to the original question, the QMS will do whatever you want it to do, just change your thinking to "I want it to do this and I have to release it like this to make it do this and..." It will not only go where you tell it to but it will make you a better player for it. :D

Opaque QMS are the way to go IF you can find them. They are the most easy to control strait mid range out. {IMO} The clear are slightly more overstable, but also handle extra torque better then the opaque.I throw only the opaques right now and they have replaced the ROC as my go to disc under 300'. Anyone that loves beat up dx ROCs should try this disc out a few rounds, Ive turned ALOT of people on to these. One thing that should be noted is this is a slow disc that is great for begginers.
