I found out in real (ball) golf that as an amateur man, I get better ideas from the LPGA ladies vis-a-vis distance and such. It's the same with disc golf: some of what Valerie has in her bag (Starfire in headwinds, Terns, etc.) suit me better than the overstable discs the pro men use. Ergo, this was a good video for me to watch, and I appreciate Valerie for doing it and SpinTV for posting it.

Its cool to see a top pro who plays with only 15 discs and carries a small bag

Val keeps things fairly simple, which is never a bad thing. Good to see some distance drivers in that bag, I'm sure the Tern should go farther than the old Starfires.....I often wondered why Val wasn't throwing something like the blizzards or something else for more distance......

+jeffthrow6892 Old Starfires? Jesus man, I got a Starfire when they first came out. Don't call them "old".
@jeffthrow68929 жыл бұрын
+steven R --- Many longer flying drivers have come out since the Starfire did, which I also threw for a while back then, which was what, 10 years ago or so?? Okay, so it's not nearly as "old" as say, the Roc & Aviar, but the disc has been around a while, man.......

So no 3x Valerie TL? I love that disc I carry two of them. It's great disc. I love that all innova pros use the gator too one of the best discs around in my opinion.

I just got my self metal flake champion gator, and holy shait is it awesome! hyzer aproaches check, skip shots check, spike hyzers check, forehand ups check and flex shots also check. I use gator and roc3 as my mids and they compliment eachother perfectly in my oppinion (:!

+Jason BLake Yep, My brother uses a beat up DX Gator as his putter. Also has a newer DX Gator as his approach disc.
@caseysmith5447 жыл бұрын
aleksi häkli I just got my brother a metal flake Champion Gator 175 grams to use as a driving putter and for midrange shots. The newer Gator at about 174 or 175 gram is still his longer putter/short approach disc.

You don't see too many of these vids where the players have 3-4 of the same disc, just in different weights, so they all feel the same.
@caseysmith5447 жыл бұрын
Philo Brathwaite does this. He has about 6 or 7 DX ROCs and he has them is differing stages of wear to the type of throw he wants.

At the pro level you see it often. They want to make sure they have replacement discs if one gets lost, as well as having different weights for different shots

At what point is Innova going to acknowledge her last name is Doss now. She's changed her last name on all social media but innova keeps wanting to call her jenkins.

Timothy Johnson Val herself will remain 'Jenkins' in the disc golf community so this is 100% intentional. There is no oversight by Innova or anyone else here as she will always remain Val Jenkins for disc golf even though she is legally Valarie Doss on paper elsewhere. Her 'fan page' on Facebook is still Valarie Jenkins and that will remain as well.
