Hey Guys. Okay I just went to "Disclusive", my local disc golf store, and picked up the Innova "Tee Bird" and the "Rhino".

The reason I got the Tee Bird is because I want ( think I need ) a distance driver that is made to throw straight.

I got the beast because my soft putter is not so good in the wind, and i have heard that the beast is a great putt/approach disc.

My question is to the people who have used or own these discs: Do you like them? Pros and Cons?

Thanks alot!

First of all, when you say beast, I'm assuming you mean Rhyno...you may want to fix that!

The Teebird is probably the single greatest driver ever made! It has one of the straightest flights available from any distance driver. The Teebird was my first driver and it's still my driver of choice, 2 years later!! I prefer DX Teebirds, but I'm hearing good things about the newest Champion ones!

The Rhyno is also a very good disc. Usually those that start with it, stick with it. It doesn't really matter what putter you use because they are all pretty similar. The only thing that matters is experience with the disc!! The rhyno is very good for midrange shots too!


Have fun with your new plastic!

I have been playing for just a short time and use both the Teebird and the Rhyno I have a dx 169 blue Teebird that is great for long drives in the past couple of weeks I really have been getting some good control out of this disc. I have a dx 176 yellow Rhyno that I'm getting to like more and more for long approach shots. I need to work more on my putting, but I don't think thats the discs fault ;)

I think that the Rhino is one of the best discs made :D. I use it as a putter because I can really make a run at putts and not go too far past if I miss. My most repeatable putting motion resulted in putts that missed right before I started using the Rhino. The pro plastic is grippy but doesn't deflect at impact and bounce around after chain contact, it just falls flat.I use dx and pro Rhinos for approaches and short drives. I think that it works so well for this because I throw an Aviar or Wizard 250'-260' and the Rhino at full power goes about 225'. The dx Rhino is really not overstable and just falls flat after it runs out of speed. The champion Rhinos are much faster and slightly high speed overstable and pretty overstable at low speeds. It makes more sense for me to throw the Rhino instead of trying to "take something off "my other putters.
