For those who have thrown them, and who can throw over 400', how does the sparkle rogue compare to other discs?

I would compare it to a nicely seasoned Pro Wraith.

That's pretty close. I would say the speed and fade of a Wraith with the turn of a Sidewinder.

I use it for. . .
-Long distance anhyzers
-Huge distance tailwind drives (my farthest throws ever have been with a Rogue in a tailwind)
-Long distance tight fairway hyzerflips

Sorry, didn't see the "easily over 400 ft" requirement. 400 is my max.

The Sparkle Rogue is like a faster Champion Beast. It is flippy in the middle of its flight, but comes back pretty dependably. It is very controllable if you like to throw with hyzer, but if you are used to throwing flat it is going to be understable.

Thanks, I would be using it for huge hyzerflips and very high anhyzers. No offense to those who don't throw 400'+, but I wanted opinions from people near my skill set to get a better idea of what this disc is capable of...

DGA pro, Myles Harding, birdied hole 13 (I-5) (http://www.delaveagadiscgolf.com/content/view/46/78/) at De LaVeaga last month hyzer-flipping a sparkle Rogue along the left tree line and into the the chute for a jump putt. It was a low and fast line that was amazing to watch.

I've been crushing both plastics 450'-500' consistently...

I have a hard time getting mine quite to 450' without positve wind conditions. Its a little flippy to take that much torque...I like them for effortless drives on any line in the 400' range. Other discs are faster and can take more snap for out 'n out bombs (unless we're talking tailwind, then the Rogue is KING!). I mainly throw pale yellow proline Rogues. I've got two Sparkles, I just don't like them that much better to pay the premium. DGA stock plastic is very nice.

It will not bomb that far in a headwind, but with no wind it mashes...I have to throw it a bit higher to give it room to work left, right, left. I also use the proline for a roller; hole 2 at Emerald Isle is 600'+ and I missed a 30 foot putt for eagle last night.
