    My favorite part of your reviews (and i seriously mean this) is that they are not over-edited. You are freaking hilarious to me. "I forgot my bag" killed me. I feel like you are a guy for the people and I feel like you give realistic reviews. Keep the content up and you won me as a customer. I always look forward to seeing you review a disc I am interested in so keep it up!

    Another great, helpful review my man. Can't wait to get my hands on this disc. I've been needing a more stable MD3 type disc. My current 2 are beat in from using them so much this year. I love the MD series and FD series from Discmania.

    Unless this was a request to run this specific plastic by Eagle it honestly makes no sense why they released another md3. Maybe they’ve been having issues with perfecting other new and unreleased discmania original molds.

    • @ApolloDiscGolf
      @ApolloDiscGolf  Рік тому +1

      Yeah I’m not sure! Maybe you’re right, maybe they aren’t super confident in the other molds quite yet… but it is a little confusing for sure!

    From a review I saw earlier as well, pretty much same flight as the flatter less stable pink is3

    • @ApolloDiscGolf
      @ApolloDiscGolf  Рік тому

      Yeah, I thought the yellow one was a little more stable than the Pink IS3 I have. I could tell when the wind picked up or when thrown on a slight anny, the pink IS3 would turn in the wind or hold the anny when the IS4 would flex out of an anny or hold straight and finish in the wind. But when throwing in an open field flat with no wind its really hard to tell any difference!

      Oh, I didn’t even think of that! I guess it could be similar… but I don’t think there is much color shift on these in the lighting… maybe a tad? But not much. So it might be a little different? It probably feels pretty similar to that though. But I also haven’t thrown a bunch of the chameleon stuff from trilogy

      @@ApolloDiscGolf I'm not 100% how that process works, but it seems like they use colours with contrast to the base plastic. I wonder if using the same one would give a luster effect like this. This is definitely the hidden part of Disc Golf I want to be able to nerd out on. 😅

    yeah.. I have n IS3 for my slightly stable shot, MD1 for the straight and method for the overstable slot.. so looks like a IS4 is a skip for me. I hope they release S-line stock discs soon.. also the night strike, really looking forward to that.

      @ApolloDiscGolf  Рік тому +1

      Yeah, this would basically be that Method spot… maybe slightly less overstable… but they would fill the same purpose! And I agree, the Night Strikes are going to be sick! I am pumped for the midnight prowls coming out in a few weeks… I recently tried out an Origin, and those are great!

      some people might not like the rim on a method so I understand the MD3 will be better for those for sure.
      and I been eyeing night strikes for a while, they are expensive, and the C-line Fd was a touch too "overstable" for me. the metalflakes are great, but still, that nightstrike!
