i have an original super puppy, my friend gave it to me,he said its been at his parents house since the 1980s. it is a dull white with no hotstamp or any markings on it. the only way to tell its a puppy is to measure it.

I was just looking at my new run super puppies and the hot stamp is burned way into the plastic. Mine have the Discovering the World stamp. They are money. Im tempted to throw one in the bag.

you should. i am thuroughly impressed with mine. it was going further and was more stable than i had anticipated. i was tossing it i the 230-250 range. some were even up hill. they didnt turn over and had the sightest of fade when i gave it height.

Snapper Pierson has been trying to get me to throw more Puppies for years. I finally started listening to him after watching Mark Horn make wonderful runs from 100ft or so with little fly-by and fall-off. Paid off at Santa Cruz where fall-off or fly-by equals roll-away or poison oak fest. Play Fun and Have Well! DD
