I played disc golf (frolf) for the first time yesterday, and in the process of driving across a lake, subsequently landed my driver in said lake. Thus, I am looking to buy another and am likely going to order online, as the selection is more diverse.

I'm likely going to try out a Gateway Discs "S-Sabre (G1i)" or a Innova "TeeBird", as they are listed as being solid drivers that fly straight, but I am a bit uncertain about what weight I should order.

When ordering the S-Sabre, I am given the following weight options: 150 class, 165-169g, 170-172g, 173-175g.

When I searched for an explanation, I came across the following SITE, which provided an explanation, though given my inexperience, doesn't help me much.

If there are any here that are experienced disc golf players that could recommend an ideal weight for a new player, it would be greatly appreciated.
