Whats the word on these new putters? Stable, Understable? and R-Plastic sounds yummy!!!! Anyone thrown R-plastic yet?

Here's da word on the R-Pro Dart: I've been throwing mine since last Monday and this disc goes right where you throw it. A bit faster than an Aviar which gives you a little carry on longer putts. When this disc hits the chains it stays! I have yet to have a bounce out as the new R-Pro plastic grips the chains and your hand as well. Weather has been cold and windy, looking forward to spring to really get into this disc.

Have you tossed a Voodoo? Is the Dart similar to that?

Sounds like a fast magic in black...very grippy and under stable maybe.

Does the Dart have any kind of bead? Just wondering if its similar to the newer Aviar PnA or the older versions.

No bead. A slight notch and a blunt nose.

darts are nice! holds the line you put it on with very little fade and when it does it doesnt dive. it floatishly fades over. havent putted with it b/c of my jk's but it is a great driver for shorter holes and awesome for tight line upshots. GET ONE!

My eyes say the Dart is shaped much like the Goblin actually. I have not thrown one yet but the Goblin was a really solid disc for upshots and the only rating difference was a +1 fade for the Goblin (zero fade for the dart) listed. The rubber feel and floppiness of the disc were very nice as the disc holds its shape well but is very soft. Super grippy

not a windy day disc, has too much carry.

That plastic is slick with the fan grip. Not a disc that I would use but probably good for for newer players. It does have some stability when new but feels weird in the hand as a putter. Anyone who likes the skeeter or kite should like the Dart.

I have like 10 or so and the first thing I noticed when I got them out of the box was the smell!

Like dirty socks or something, those darts stink when they are all together, but putting one in the yard I don't notice it.

I guess I have always taken odorless plastic for granted.

Hmmm, that odor may come from some aromatic compound that is in the plastic that gives it greater elasticity. And I am not being a smartie when I say "aromatic". That term is used for certain organic chemical families that, typically, emit odors, hence, aromatic. That is your chemistry lesson for today.

I remember getting to the dinner table in college, after a late afternoon Organic Chemistry lab, and someone would invariably say something like, "What's that smell?", and someone else would say, "Oh, that's [my fraternity nickname - which would get this post reported if I used it], he came straight from Organic Chem lab again"

smelly or not, it's a fun disc. goes where i put it every time. easy to get straight for 250'. i likes it!

The Organic Wizards smell like maple syrup

Whenever there is a new disc thread, one of the first responces is always the standard "it goes where I throw it'. I'm starting to dislike this "trait" because it doesn't tell us anything. Most of us can take any disc and "make" it go any direction. I want to know what a disc does when thrown flat and straight. What is the flight pattern, hi and lo speed stability, glide, just like the charts tell us. I can anny a Max with enough angle & I can hyzer a Roadrunner, so goes where you throw it is bunk. We'd only need 2-3 discs EVER. Sorry if I offended, but a recent conversation I had on the course was an eerie prediction.

Here's what I can tell you after only one afternoon of testing out an orange 175g dart in mid-30's temps. I was also throwing my usual mix of up-shot discs for comparison (beat DX Aviar, D Challenger, Pro Aviar, Comet). I was NOT putting with the Dart, as I prefer stiff putters, which I don't use at all for up-shots.

Carry/glide is what struck me initially about this thing. It is small-diameter like my putters, but had the carry of my comet (almost). Even on poor release angles, it was ending up as close if not closer than my putters if thrown on the right line. The only drawback to this is that for someone who throws multiple discs for upshots, depending on the wind usually, it might be confusing switching back and forth with the Dart in the rotation, since it tended to fly farther than my putter but shorter than my comet on all throws. For me, it's an in-betweener disc at this point.

What I liked most about the disc was its flight path when thrown on a hyzer in either calm or slight headwind situations. High speed stability was closer to my Pro Aviar, flipping up to flat when thrown hard but refusing to turn over, resulting in a nice, long straight flight; but low speed stability was less hyzer than my beat DX Aviar, closer to that of my Comet. It would almost stall in the air and just touch down, which meant that good shots were landing very close to my target, and poorer shots (usually flying over the basket) were not compounded by a big skip.

Tailwind shots were a bit confusing. When thrown high with hyzer, it would not flip up all the way, but would sail to the left and beyond the target consistently. When thrown high or low with anhyzer, it would act as though it was being pushed down and dive to the ground, always falling short of my target. Not once did I have a good result with anhyzer, but maybe it was just me.

At this point, it's still an experimental disc that hasn't found a spot in my bag, but I'm going to keep trying different things with it to see if it has any real merit. Hope this helps. :)

They smell like play doh.

08 Masters World Champ Al Schack won both the MPM on Sat and the MPO on Sun this weekend at the March Mush in MI, putting with the Dart. He was still throwing Aviars for drives and approaches.

Something tells me he could've won both putting with an Xtreme if he wanted to. It's good to hear someone's using it though, cause it's no longer in my bag. :)

i liken the shape to my champion panther but the plastic is very flexible with a better durabuility than the old d plastic. this disc did have a tendacy to go farther than i intended during a tourny last weekend, that being said id did not skip away for an additional lenght penalty for a shot a little off. it probably saved a few strokes on its capacity to stop , with practice i believe it to be a keeper
as ill be able to learn how aggressive i can be with it

But they don't float. :o:D

hahahahahaha neither do buzzes,wasps.or jujus.

Has anyone every thrown one? It seems like a nice long-distance putter for straight throws. Any thoughts?
