    I got a px3 in the mail Friday. ALL weekend I used it against my zone, distortion, and Proton Envy. By the end I found myself having the most fun with the distortion and PX3.

    The A3 is my favorite approach disc. I found one used in 750, and it feels beautiful. It is slightly more torque resistant than the zone for forehands. I never thought I’d move on from the Brody Zone until I tried it.

    • @wreagin1

      Yes!!! The zone has nothing on the A3. So much more comfortable too. I love the squared nose.

    The PX-3 "Shusterick 2022 Signature" in 500, shiny purple/gray metallic, made my bag (were on sale), also bought the Suspect, 2 Roc, a Roc3 to complement my microbeaded eMac Truth and OS-OS approach Viking Loki. I feel the bead makes the release better/cleaner for my modified fangrip that I stared using just by feel without thinking about it. Its definitely like a slower speed mid with its flat top.
    The PA-1 is very nice on shorter drives but its quite deep and won't push out as far as the PX-3/JOKERi.

    Ive been needing a more stable putter for throwing lately, and these all look pretty great honestly. Never really thrown prodigy before. Also, I like when you do the challenges like this to keep the disc for yourself, you earned it. Plus it keeps you competitive when you're the only one playing

    Is the px-3 like a bit more over stable envy? I am looking for an overstanle pitter that glides and doesnt dump. Not sure if it exists. I wanted the envy to be that but it is a bit too strait. I also have baby hands and i have figures out 1.4mm inside rim depth is my max for comfort. Any deeper it sits at an angle in my hand and i cant get a flat release.

    Im from New Hampshire and I have never seen an airated park until a couple years ago. I visited my parents in Colorado and I thought the course was covered in poop, but it was actually grass.

    Been following since around your POV Sky God video and I had a random thought: Is there a reason you throw everything on a hyzer recently? 150ft hole and you throw a spike hyzer at it. I get that these are OS but it's something I've noticed on all your recent videos. Thanks for uploading so much. I usually start my day watching your stuff.

    Prodigy has some good discs and I would enjoy them more if the flashing was less aggressive (Putters are usually fine, but as soon as you get to mids or higher it gets pretty bad). They have good plastics too, hopefully they properly acknowledge the flashing issue and take steps towards improving it.
