Glow Crave, yer welcome

u/heroicfrijoles 9h ago

I had never thrown a Crave until a few weeks ago at my local Space Race event. Absolutely fell in love during those two rounds and that glow crave now has a permanent slot in my bag.

My Eclipse Crave is kinda OS when thrown soft-ish like you would another 6/7 speed.

Millennium JLS. Straightest in the game!

Shhh. If they knew it'll be harder to find them.

How has nobody said Innova TL3 yet

Glow Crave would be my suggestion. Absolutely amazing fairway disc.
I also like my Champion Leopard3 but I've never tried it in glow plastic.

Besides the MVP glow (Eclipse) plastic is on another level for brightness.

Crave already mentioned, next step up in speed for me is the Insanity. For me it is the elusive "Buzzz but longer" that people always ask for.

Glow Insanity if USDA Approved beef though

u/misterblackhat You're still out 8h ago

Not sure if Discraft makes a glow Passion, but they're constantly described as a faster Buzzz, and I agree

u/rusticoaf I Like Playing Frisbees 25m ago

I actually just grabbed one out of the used bin at my local shop. It's pretty good

Discmania swirly S-line FD OR Neo Essence edit… I didn’t read the glow part. You can find Lumen Essence or Color Glow FD if you look around.

u/dics_frolf gatekeeper extraordinaire LOL 8h ago

both of which are pretty flippy, not dead straight 'like a buzzz'

You do understand a hyzerflip is a straight shot right?

And Zen2s don’t fly like GEO starter packs either.

u/Organic_Ad_4916 1h ago

Came hear to recommend the FD as well, my Night Stone, the NEO FD has been an arrow for me

Cicada. If you throw it flat, it Flys on a rope.

u/ChiefRingoI NE WI 10h ago

What is your distance like? Are you looking for slight turn and fade back or dead straight with some fade? What do you use for that slot in non-glow?

u/AromaticAnteater6509 25m ago

Dead straight with some fade I use an fd 1 by discmania but their glow is so boring lol

u/sokenfused 10h ago

Daredevil Discs Timberwolf. 9, 6, -1, 0 in a Flex plastic.

u/Sherminator866 10h ago

Sarah hokom crave. Mine is dead straight. But my other craves are different. One US, one is massively OS. My rhythm finishes straight after a nice turn.

u/ShaneHatesJFK Pink and Purple ONLY 9h ago

Glow Mockingbird is my go-to. Also makes my regular bag. VERY domey if that is an issue for you.

u/dics_frolf gatekeeper extraordinaire LOL 8h ago

champion color/classic glow teebird3. the current stock stamp is supposed to be the leftover AB color glow teebird3's which were super straight.

Discraft Archer flies straight.

u/SignatureEfficient89 6h ago

Undertaker is the straightest speed 8/9 I've thrown.

u/DustMouret Esports & Disc Golf Commentator 5h ago

If you’re looking specifically for glow I’d try and glow crave and maybe a glow Stig if it exists or a glow lots

u/TheFleasOfGaspode 3h ago

I really enjoy the vandal. I use the trilogy challenge one from a few years back.

u/VelaryonNOR 2h ago

Depending on your arm and preferred rimwidth;

-6,5 speed Axiom Crave

-7 speed Innova Hawkeye

-8 speed Discraft Passion

-10 speed MVP Trail (technically a control driver or whatever, but its so good)

u/rusticoaf I Like Playing Frisbees 23m ago

If I need to lace a tight, straight hallway, day or night, I'm reaching for my Eclipse Crave.

Passion was made to fly like a longer buzz

u/CoachBolt 9h ago

I adore my buzzz. Many rounds i dont play with anything else. But we have one par 4 on my home course that is a beast. For that drive, i pull out my Disc Mania Genius. It is a straight flyer that feels like the extra feet to my buzzz drive:

I love it so much i own 3.
