    “The berg is a crutch”
    A statement that not everyone may agree with (and I totally get why some people love the disc) but I think if you look at it the same way as these two examples it might make more sense.
    1. You will often hear old time disc golfers (even Climo has said it) who had to develop there putt on old shit baskets that putting soft and learning to “set” the putt into the basket is a skill itself and the players who have developed that compared to the new school “putt as hard as you possibly can” Gannon buhr style (no hate to him) simple lack the skill of touch on the putting green.
    2. Everyone know that beginner that throws a full flight 250ft destroyer on forehand and is super accurate when that shot is available, but in any other situation they are trash. We’ve all heard it “start with putters only” or “don’t throw distance drivers when you first start playing” and that’s because it teaches bad habits that might be hard to overcome later on.
    Basically what I’m saying is I think the “berg” style approach disc can fall into a similar category. Disc golf is a skilled sport and learning all the skills is super valuable. (Even how to throw a berg) I just think for most players especially ones newer to the game, there is much more value in learning a touch putter upshot with an Aviar than dumping a berg at the basket with no skill involved because it’s easy to not mess up.
    Also keep in mind my opinion on this comes from experience as someone who relied heavily on a berg for many years.
    Also keep in mind I don’t actually care at all if you throw/enjoy the berg because the beauty of disc golf is we can all throw whatever we want and the options are endless. When it comes down to it we’re all gonna get waxed by the old guy that only throws a sidewinder and has putted the same Aviar for the last 20 years anyway🤝

      I mean yes, but also, if the shot works in most cases just do it in those cases - and if a player is lacking in a certain skillset which this crutch can't take care of they have the responsibility to make the decision to practice that or not.
      I think it's a great idea to bag a Berg, even if it's a crutch, if it helps with getting easier shots for upshots - because it's a bad idea in general to try to learn too many things at once. - Now I'm not a disc golf pro at all, I've played like 3 rounds this summer and last time before that was 10+ years ago - but I know a few things about mastering crafts, and one of the important things is to learn at a pace which is manageable. It's not a race, it's a marathon. While Player A plays different drive shots, always saves it with a reliable upshot, to get the putt - Player B is practicing different tactics on multiple shots per hole. In this super specific scenario, which I have no idea if it's realistic or not; Player A gets direct feedback on the round from the shots that aren't crutches, and that's reflected in the total score over time. Player B might do some things better, and some things worse, but it's harder to decisively tell the improvement in the total score of rounds as this generally will also result in a wider variance.
      Something something you don't have to learn it all at once, it's fine to use crutches while learning other aspects of the game, and that's generally the most efficient way of improving - Target practice.

      @@broderic yeah true, i agree that learning how to be touchy is very important, but it’s also important to be able to perform under any weather and circumstances, and being great with a berg is gonna work in any circumstances and conditions there is, while those touchy shots with a glidey and understable putter won’t.
      Those old heads may beat me in perfect conditions with their beat up DX leopards in the woods, but when we have to throw a 400ft shot in the wind, they finish at the bottom every time, while i’m gonna be in contention in both.
      Obviously the best of both worlds is the best, but if i have to pick one, i’m gonna pick the one that does the same thing in the best conditions as it does in the worst conditions.
      For example, we just had our club championship two weeks ago, two courses, one wooded technical course and one open park style course. I finished 2nd place with my style, and all the old heads and touchy players finished at the bottom because it was windy.

      Also, i live in Sweden, the old heads that beats you here are the ones who bags a Berg😂 usually puts with them as well
      But the reason why i started bagging a berg is because i kept getting beaten by dudes who mastered upshots and approaches with it, backhand, forehand, everything 150ft and in, they were under the basket every time with a tap in for a birdie while i had a 30 footer because of ground play, and unfortunately i’m not paul mcbeth so they aren’t automatic yet

    I think of turn and fade as high and low speed stability. Having a negative HSS would mean the disc will turn right (assuming RHBH) as it's thrown harder while a positive HSS would mean it'll turn left, or fade, more as it's thrown harder. Much like someone throwing a destroyer 250ft will never see that -1 turn, you won't see the positive turn if the disc is thrown lightly. 🤝

    I think the low glide is what makes it straight when thrown soft and os when thrown hard. its shaped in a way that it should fly os but since it has no glide, when you throw it soft theres not enough air under the disc to push on the fade so is just drops instead? idk if that makes any sense lol!

    I have to disagree with you here. If you can improve your score with a BergX, Berg or and other disc; you should throw them. I see this disc as a performance enhancer not a crutch. At a pitch and putt, if throwing a BergX helps your timing you should thrown that disc. If I could get over the god awful feel in the hand, I would be bagging one as it is easier for me to hit a gap with full commitment.

    Been playing just over two years and messing around with the Berg for about half of that. It comes in and out of the bag. I'm forehand dominant, and I love the dead straight forehand flight you can get out of it. I like to think that I've developed a bit of touch over the past year, but I can't get that dead straight forehand flight out of any other disc. Closest I've come is hyzer flipping a Proxy or Atom, but those discs are so touchy. 1% too much power, too little hyzer, or too flat and they're burning over. With the Berg, it doesn't matter how hard or soft I throw it. If I release it flat, it's going dead straight and falling out of the sky with almost no turn or fade. My problem with it is the depth. I have small hands and about 20% of my forehands with the Berg hang up on release and jerk the line left...at which point it continues to fly dead straight on the wrong line. Been doing some forehand Berg only rounds this week to see if I can eliminate that problem.

    I get the point of the “it’s a crutch” comments that are so often regurgitated regarding the Berg.
    It’s just that different discs work for different shots. This is obviously IN ADDITION to the angle of release and the speed/spin we put on a throw. So if a particular disc is the best option for a given shot where we have the angles/spin dialed in…sounds dumb to not go w/ our best option.
    Is it the Berg’s fault that one’s “touch” (lol) isn’t dialed? Maybe they should practice THOSE “touch” shots w/ OTHER types of discs and get those dialed in as well. THEN have multiple options for a variety of shots the game calls for. THAT sounds like a more well-rounded game.
    If I have a great hyzer-flip disc or super over-stable disc that I use to achieve specific lines…are those “crutches” too? Because not all of my discs are gonna flip or flex like those particular discs. You simply have to factor in and alter HOW you throw any given disc for different flights in the air…and the ‘play’ they get on the ground. That’s disc golf. We don’t play w/ a single disc and use only one type of throw.
    Another regurgitated phrase is that whole “archer not the arrow” saying. I agree. BUT…I’d also say that if I have an ARROW that consistently hits the 🎯- - There’s no question…..I’m taking THAT bitch into battle and/or to hunt for my dinner.

    Thanks for the review. I’m stoked to get my X in and hope mine is as over stable as your experience.

      My thoughts further explained🤝
      “The berg is a crutch”
      A statement that not everyone may agree with (and I totally get why some people love the disc) but I think if you look at it the same way as these two examples it might make more sense.
      1. You will often hear old time disc golfers (even Climo has said it) who had to develop there putt on old shit baskets that putting soft and learning to “set” the putt into the basket is a skill itself and the players who have developed that compared to the new school “putt as hard as you possibly can” Gannon buhr style (no hate to him) simple lack the skill of touch on the putting green.
      2. Everyone know that beginner that throws a full flight 250ft destroyer on forehand and is super accurate when that shot is available, but in any other situation they are trash. We’ve all heard it “start with putters only” or “don’t throw distance drivers when you first start playing” and that’s because it teaches bad habits that might be hard to overcome later on.
      Basically what I’m saying is I think the “berg” style approach disc can fall into a similar category. Disc golf is a skilled sport and learning all the skills is super valuable. (Even how to throw a berg) I just think for most players especially ones newer to the game, there is much more value in learning a touch putter upshot with an Aviar than dumping a berg at the basket with no skill involved because it’s easy to not mess up.
      Also keep in mind my opinion on this comes from experience as someone who relied heavily on a berg for many years.
      Also keep in mind I don’t actually care at all if you throw/enjoy the berg because the beauty of disc golf is we can all throw whatever we want and the options are endless. When it comes down to it we’re all gonna get waxed by the old guy that only throws a sidewinder and has putted the same Aviar for the last 20 years anyway🤝

      I get it man. Especially on the beginner point. Valid indeed. Like those dudes that come out of the gates throwing extreme forehand annies and playing the flex. It builds a habit to that angle/release and the flight just doesn’t work for all shots. Can be hard to break that muscle-memory when you start trying other lines or more understable discs.
      Hell, I can throw two consecutive tees w/ that shot and then need to hyzer-flip the next tee shot and fuck it up due to my brain’s recency-bias. Muscle-memory is a bitch.
      I had a decent approach game before I even knew of the Berg. Used the DD Evidence for straight-as-an-arrow ups and the Justice to get those extreme bends (still ❤️ that disc and that shot shape).
      When I started throwing the Berg I had to change my mindset (and still do) when I pull it out for a shot. But I like the mindset for the Berg. Something that I can give a solid bid AND have a decent putt when I don’t smash, draw metal or park it……that’s a badass weapon IMO. I’m definitely not throwing other more touchy discs w/ that same mindset. But also find I can achieve just about any approach situation w/ the Berg and rarely need a touchy shot. I Do reach for super overstable (my K3 Järn nowadays) when I need to snake something thru tricky lines.
      I also play disc golf to have fun (and for the exercise and vitamin D). So I’m always running the shit out of the basket. I live for that beautiful music smashing the chains makes. It gets me off. Gives me those endorphin hits. I’m not playing smart golf by any means. Bc if I’m from 80 to about 150 out….I’m running it. And my scores show for it in a negative way. Lol. My putting is SHIT.
      Your content and points are often geared to try to help folks w/ parts of their game. So kudos. You provide good insights and examples w/ a chill vibe. And I know you like to push buttons too. Like….nice edit when you cut off that “I’m not a loser….” line in this video regarding why you don’t throw the Berg. Lmao. I can’t take offense to that bc I *am* a fucking Berg throwing loser. Hahaha.
      People love to hate on the Berg similar to how folks love to hate on a band that quickly gains popularity. This societal/cultural effect is understandable. Usually there’s SOMETHING (multiple things) good about that band’s music to where it resonates w/ many. And a lot of people simply hate on it to be cool….to be rebellious against what’s popular. We’ve all been there.
      Keep up the great content and thanks for dialog on this topic.
      And…….
      Ya should probably go ahead and bag that BergX. Just don’t tell anyone 🤫

    I throw a DGA Gumputt for anything from 60' putt attempts, touch upshots (including flicks) and even drives from the tee for up to 300' straight as a chalk line. I have a 350' ace with it. Everyone asks me what disc flies that amazing but I never see anyone else throwing them. It can handle a full rip, glides like a son of a B and sticks a landing like an olympic gymnast. But I guess it's like the scooter of disc golf, fun to ride but you'll get roasted by your friends! I wouldn't be caught dead without one in my bag.

    Positive turn Discs aren't too common, basically during the high-speed portion of the flight the disc will track left when throwing RHBH.
    My trustee go to beefy fairway driver, the Innova Whippet X and Whippet L are two examples with a positive turn 6/3/+1/5 .
    My Discmania Tilt and Reptilian Disc Golf Stego also have a positive turn👍, as well as my Dynamic Discs Enforcer.
    Both the Tilt and Stego are probably a +2 turn😳 and the Enforcer is a +0.5 turn.
    As a friendly warning none of the discs that I have listed above should be driven to the disc golf course in an automobile🫣.
    Why is that you may be wondering🤷, because they're so overstable they tend to make your car veer to the left also 😉.
