Ava or Chief. Why? Because they’re the best playing CLYWs.

I agree with this. If you’ve never thrown a double rim throw, basically what the Chief is known for bringing into the mainstream, I prefer the Chief over the Arctic Circle. That being said, the Avalanche is probably the best playing CLYW period. It’s amazing. Realistically probably my favorite throw. It can do everything and I do not feel like enough good can be said about the Avalanche. Also, since you plan on getting a Go Big if you get an Avalanche I vote Avalanche and Go Big.
Either way you can’t go wrong. The Arctic Circle really is also a wonderful throw, it comes down to personal preference. While my heart says Avalanche, go with whatever looks the best/what color scheme you prefer, etc…you’ll be happy whichever direction you choose.

Cliff. Will be out very soon, looks to combine the best attributes of all of their throws, and if you don’t like it the resale will be high anyway.
