What's In Todd's Bag

Drivers:
Innova Banshee
Two Banshees (both new) for all sorts of hyzer shots and sidearms off the tee. One for useage and one for backup.

Innova TeeBird
Two Teebirds (one Champion Edition and one DX, both new). Long drivers... experimenting with the CE still.

Innova Firebird
One Firebird (new). It's overstable like a Banshee (almost), but flies farther. The CE Firebird might replace this.

Approach:
Innova Rhyno
I carry six Rhynos (two new, four from near new to beat). I am partial to 'star' stamped Rhynos. One is a new star stamp for serious hyzers and upshots, the other new one is for backup and dangerous shots where I don't want to lose or damage the 'star'. The other four range from near new to beat. I use my Rhynos off the tee, for upshots, and for putting. Easily 50% of my game is played with a Rhyno, and 20% is played with a Banshee.

Innova Roc
Three Rocs (ranging from new to beat) for some tee shots... doesn't really get used that much.

Putter:
Innova Rhyno
See above.

Specialty:
Innova Gazelle
Two Gazelle rollers (1 beat, 1 seriously beat). One for rollers that tail right late and one for early tailing and trick shots.

Innova Wolf
One Wolf (near new), experimental use. I like the thumbtrack but the disc is understable when new, causing it to beat up too fast for me. It might stay in the bag for a bit longer.
