What is good about the Guld series is they fly straighter into a headwind. The Strive series has some built-in TURN, not as much as a Captain, so its not a 'touchy' in headwinds. Generally backhand speaking, all these particular disc series have to be looked at as a correlation between the amount of TURN right, and the amout of come-back left FADE. These stat factors are the primary ones to be concerned with. Gulds have a good TURN to FADE relationship.
I’m new and this is my best glide skip distance so far. It works well enough for me, but I’ll be upgrading to a strive when I can. I have a glide/water skip strive and that disc just never stops gliding. Gives me 500+ ft every time plus the water skip bonus
I swapped it out with my G/S Rive a few weeks ago and am happy with my decision. A few different lines I had to learn but it seems a lot more stable and easier to control the finish
I will add that I’m a lefty and liked the forehand distance I got as I tried some RH backhand lines. It’s the only dyed disc from this season that I have bagged

I just checked my collection and found that I have a Strive BS EG. I am going to give it a try!

I am thinking I will be swapping out as well.
