I've always felt that ESP is a bit less durable but I prefer the slightly softer grip, especially in the cold weather (no, I don't mean FLX).

I finally flipped my Z Force today, granted it was into a monster headwind. Never come close any other time, they are complete meathooks that usually fly dead nuts straight into a headwind. Awesome disc, feels better in my hand than an XCaliber because it has a sharp wing instead of a blunt one.

this is what discraft says "Stalker is an easy-to-control fairway driver that flies like a Buzzz, only farther. Ringer is a low-profile, sweetly overstable putter".... it looks like a rhyno

Bard,
You're "in the know" about Discraft, when are they coming out with a FLX Force?

Uh, OK, I'll bite.
Yes, somebody wants that! Me.
Discs that bend = bad
= BAD !
or
Discs that bend = good!
Neat how one person's garbage is another person's gold.

Added note: I think the reason I like the FLX is that it has the same feel to it (or very similar) as the Aerobie products do.
Aerobie products good
! And of course I'm saying this from a totally unbiased opinion....

esp surge is my favorite. its fast, you can make it fly straight with a slow hyzer, or high with a strong hyzer, ani and come back hyzer. love this disc

Picked up a Nuke in a trade and test threw it this past weekend. Holy crap. It is everything i had thought my pro destroyer was. the destroyer is getting shelved.
A woman walked by and asked me if i was a pro and said that that throwing that far is "not normal" My head got a few sizes bigger until I realized that she probably never saw a golf disc being thrown before.
