Just played my first round with this last night. A little background first: I played disc golf in the 80’s and 90’s a few times. Maybe played 15 or 20 rounds total. My oldest son got serious into playing over the last year. I’ve played about 8 rounds in the last 2 months. Best score until last night was 5 over par and it took some luck. My forehand is better than my backhand. My best drives are 350′ but I probably average around 275 as I am not that consistent yet. Played a very technical course for the first time last night and scored 1 over par. Missed some birdies inside the circle or it would have been lower. This disc was my go-to disc from 175-300 feet. I love the feel of the plastic, but absolutely love the flight characteristics of this disc. Holds a nice straight line and then a butter fade at the end. Nearly holed out a 70% power forehand on a 280 foot par 3 with the chains tucked behind and to the right of a stand of trees. I could see where maybe a really big arm would turn this over too much. Looking forward to taking this to some other courses and see if it continues to impress. For now, it seems to be a really good match for my speed.

I would gladly tell you about my experience. First off your company is exactly what I needed as a disc golfer looking for equipment. I purchased 9 discs after using your research knowledge and used them a few times since. Shot my best round to date with them so I was impressed with the quality of the products. Also the shipping speed was fantastic. I received them within 3 days like your website showed. I will definitely be using your company to buy discs and equipment in the future! Thank you!

Your service was fast and accurate! These were for my husband, that has made his own course on our five acres. So I had to fake it as for what to pick, as I don’t play myself. But he is very happy with them so far. When he needs new ones I will send him your way!🌌🤾♂️Thanks again😁
