The Westside Bard is an overstable, beaded midrange rated 5/4/0/3, and stability is its whole reason for being. It is by far the most overstable midrange in the Westside lineup, and possibly the most overstable mid in the entire Trilogy family. The Bard comes out straight, gets stable, and fades hard with a predictable, dependable finish, pushing forward even as it fades so it still covers ground. That reliability is exactly what makes it a headwind hero: it will hold that straight line even when your hair is blowing straight back. Power throwers reach for the Bard when they need a midrange they can absolutely count on to resist turning over, and its torque resistance makes it a trusted choice for forehand approaches, spike hyzers, and flex lines. It feels great in the hand too, with a comfortable, deeper beaded rim and an easy, clean release that lets you commit fully to every throw. If you have been searching for a wind-fighting, do-not-turn-over overstable mid with a classic beaded feel, the Bard is the answer.
