The Innova Champion T-Bird Disc

This is a typical disc golf bag, and today we're going to talk about 15 different discs that I use for different shot selections around the course. This disc right here is an Innova Champion T-Bird. It's an overstable disc and when I throw this disc perfectly flat its' tendency and the way that it's engineered, is to immediately turn to the left for a right handed thrower. If you're a left handed thrower, it's going to do the opposite. So with this disc, this disc is really important if you want to throw it straight, to actually throw it with the nose down a little bit and the edge, or the wing, up, so that when the disc comes out of your hand, it's going to have to fight the wind and the headwinds or whatever you're throwing into, to turn over and finally fade off and fall to the ground. So this is a really good disc to try to throw distance, through fairways, if you can throw it straight it's also really good to throw hyzers. And a hyzer is where when you let the disc out, and instead of letting it out flat, you let it out with the wing down so that what happens is, is when you throw the disc it comes out of your hand at this angle, and immediately takes up to the sky and takes a big, so for like a dogleg left, this would be an ideal disc. Because if you can throw it straight, it's going to go straight for a while and fade, and if you have to dogleg around trees, big high trees, big shot, you could throw it at the angle and throw what they call a hyzer. And a hyzer is, like I said, it's if you let the disc out flat it's going to go straight and fade at the end. If you let the disc out with the wing up, it's going to go an incredibly straight distance for you and then turn just a little bit. And if you throw it with the wing down, it will actually hyzer. It weighs 166 grams which most discs go from 150 to 175, with the exclusion of putters and mid-ranges that will go to 180. So this is actually a little lighter weight T-Bird which is going to make the disc a little more understable which is useful on doglegs and obstruction shots.
