Quality not a strong point, June 7, 2009
This review is from: Frisbee Golf Fly Right Starter Set (Sports)
On the surface, this seems like a great value. Typical golf discs run about $8 each and bags are about $15 separately. In theory this is about a $50 value for only $29, but that's really a little deceptive.
The bag is very flimsy and after only a month of carrying it around, the strap pad has fallen off, the divider has come out and the towel has frayed almost to the point of coming loose. The discs are a little better, except that they're just not as good for golf as the Innova discs. The putter is so stiff it may as well be a mid-range. The driver isn't really a straight fast driver, it's a turnover. A turnover has its uses and I keep it in my bag, but I generally use it in cases where I might lose it in the water (and it won't be a huge loss if I do). The mid-range is really the only decent disc in the bag.
The mini-disc marker is pretty nice, and the DVD is worth a look, but in general I would recommend beginners check on YouTube for videos about disc golfing and buy the Innova starter kit instead. I don't know how good their bag is, but their discs are far superior.

Get what you pay for, October 8, 2009
This review is from: Frisbee Golf Fly Right Starter Set (Sports)
There is an Innova starter set that had three discs but no bag or marker disc. I really wish I would have got that one instead like my friends did. I've used the set in 3 games so far. The zipper on the bag is broken and the driver disc shattered in the last game. The tree it hit was about 100ft away and smashed like a car ran over it. Before it smashed however, the driver worked very well.

It's not "Frisbee" Golf, December 16, 2009
This review is from: Frisbee Golf Fly Right Starter Set (Sports)
Wham-o is good for chuckin' around in the back yard, but if you want to get into disc golf forget about it. Performance golf disc design is a science and Wham-o has been left in the dust. Check out Innova or Discraft. They have taken disc flight to a whole new level and it's still a low budget sport. Good Luck!
