Has it been released? Since I didn't like the z avenger, I'm gonna have to by the x avenger by the bunch due to their quick break in period.

Is it true they will be releasing a Luanne Platter to compliment the Bobby Hill Avenger? :D

Sweet, I love the Z Avenger, I was worried that it might be a temp disc...Congrats Nate, and Discraft.

Nate's signature Avenger is the X Avenger and let me tell you Ive played with him and he can BOMB this thing. Dont worry about the Z though its not going anywhere :D I hope they decide to tweak the Pred mold even more and make something a step less stable then the Avenger and then something super flippy for huge sky rollers :D

I'm glad it's the x avenger; I like it much better than the z avenger though I still carry both.

My bad, I thought it was the Z, the X is cool too, but way too flippy for anything but rollers or big sky annies. The Z avenger for me is like a Orc Pred mix.

Oct 06 2005, 03:14 PM
I agree with the pred/orc comparison. But, I stick with the pred for hard left turns. I figure I don't really have the arm for these discs regardless. Been playing for a while but this nasty habit I have called employment keeps me busy. At the moment I can only really get out and throw on weekends.

I dont know about that. I saw Nate pump a X Avenger close to if not over 500 feet on an airshot. Id say you need to work on your technique :eek: Either way Doss is the man and Discraft is sweet!!!!!!!

I thought the X and Z were fairly close in stability. The X would flipover if you broke your wrist too much on the release. I only throw the Z plastic because of the terrain in our area. The Appliachian mountains make for very rock fairways. Even good shots will leave you with chewed up discs.

I just threw a 2nd run( I think) elite Avenger and it was considerably more understable than the 1st run I had. Anyone else experience this?

Discraft even rates them differently. The X avenger is labeled as 1.6 stability. The Z avenger is labeled as 1.8 stability.

Both have plenty of low speed fade, but the X has a much greater high speed turn.... or flippyness.

Makes a great combo ... one for overstable, one for straight hyzer flips or turnover shots.... all your long range needs

Is the 2nd run avenger more similar to the pro then?

hey Rhett, i was wondering something... you've been playing longer than Nate, and you're also from California. so when are you getting your own signature disc? how come Nate can beat you? is it cuz he's NorCal and you're only SoCal? thanks for any input you can provide! :cool:

There is an "Ask Rhett" thread in the SoCal Topic that would be the place to ask this question.

For the record, I've been playing disc golf longer than Nate's been alive. :)

Darn Kieth. I couldn't get that site to load at work, and my connection at home was acting up due to the cold front that came in (it's 65 this morning).
