ADVICE: Don't start off with too many discs, learn a couple of discs at first until you feel like you are very consistent with them and then start trying out new plastic. Also, technique is key. Don't try so hard to throw the disc. Smooth is far. If you feel like you are trying too hard, try a less stable disc. Never be afraid to ask your local pros for help/advice.
