Best Disc Golf Putters of 2026

June 26, 2026 Ted Hegemann 29 comments

It’s time for out mid-year peak at the top-selling discs so far this year. Over the next few weeks we will be posting data so you can see which discs top the lists. This might give you ideas for new discs to try. We’ll start with putters. Let’s get to the data! We’ll start by looking at the top putters for the full year of 2025

Top 50 Disc Golf Putters for 2025

The top 10 putters represent about half of all putters sold in 2025. Leading the pack is the Discraft Zone, the popular throwing putter favored by pros and amateurs alike. Just a tick behind the Zone in sales is the Axiom Pixel. The Pixel was the top disc for 2024.

The last podium spot for last year belongs to the Gateway Wizard. The Wizard is the oldest mold in the top 10, receiving its PDGA approval in 2002. It is a best seller for Gateway.

The Pixel is one of the newer molds, getting PDGA approved late in 2023. It has been a popular mold from the beginning.

Top Putter in 2026

Now we can see which molds players are choosing so far in 2026. Maybe a new mold came out that is fire? Maybe a pro is having a breakout year and people want to try what they throw? Maybe there is an amazing stamp or plastic type that is all the rage? Whatever the reason for buying particular molds, here are the top putters of 2026 so far.

A bulk of the top 10 molds are consistently some of the best sellers. This time, taking their turns at the top, are two of Infinite’s popular putters, the Tomb and the Alpaca. Those two putters alone made up a little over 10% of all putter sales. The next three molds, Pixel, Luna, and the Zone, make up another 10% of sales.

Brands With the Most Molds in the Top 50 For 2025

Let’s check out the brand representation in the top 50. No surprise for the number one spot. Once again, Discraft runs away from the competition with an impressive eight molds. Those molds are the Zone, Luna, Zone SS, Ricky Wysocki Prototype, Kratos, Fierce, Zone OS, and the Roach. The lowest rated of the eight Discraft discs is the Roach, which is in 40th place.

Brands With the Most Molds in the Top 50 2026

A couple Discraft molds dropped out of the top 50, leaving the former leader tied with MVP with 6 each. Axiom cam in third with 5. Those three brands had a third of all the molds in the top 50.

Highest Rated Disc Golf Putters

One of the biggest perks of shopping on the Infinite Discs website is the ability to browse real player reviews and see how each disc is rated before you buy. As more players share their experiences, those ratings become an incredibly useful snapshot of how the disc golf community feels about specific molds. The rating system also ties into the Infinite Rewards program, which lets you earn points for leaving reviews or making purchases. If you haven’t explored Infinite Rewards yet, it’s worth a look (click HERE). Your feedback not only earns rewards but also helps strengthen our growing library of disc reviews.
With that in mind, we decided to dig into several disc categories to highlight the molds that rise to the top. Let’s kick things off with the highest‑rated disc golf putters of all time.

Highest Rated Putter of All Time

It should come as no surprise that the highest rated putter is also the best seller for the year. The Discraft Zone has an Infinite rating of 4.88 out of five stars. According to the Infinite website, the Zone is “a very overstable putter that is good for headwinds, strategic fades, forehand throws, flick putts, and slamming into chains at just the right angle.” With that versatility, it is no wonder that the Zone sells so well, and is rated so highly.

Here are the top ten highest rated putters:

Highest Rated Very Overstable Putters

In the Extra-Beefcake division, the Prodigy A-1 has a perfect record with 5 out of 5 stars. It is just what you need if you want to be able to throw in any headwind. The former champ, the Goliath Pillar, drops to second place with 4.90 stars. The Prodigy Distortion is in third at 4.75.

Check out the list of Highest Rated Very Overstable Putters HERE

Highest Rated Overstable Putters

There are numerous molds in this category that have perfect 5.0 ratings. Many of them have a single review. The most reviews with a perfect rating is four, for the Latitude 64 Peak. For putters with more reviews, the Prodigy PA-2 has a rating of 4.94, and both the Axiom Envy and the Doomsday Discs Area 51 are rated at 4.90

Check out the list of Highest Rated Overstable Putters HERE

Highest Rated Stable Putters

Two Infinite molds sit on top of the sable discs category. The flat-topped Tomb and the beadless Alpaca have been best-sellers from the beginning. The Thought Space Athletics Praxis, as a popular drive and approach putter, comes in third.

Check out the list of Highest Rated Stable Putters HERE

Highest Rated Understable Putters

If we overlook the single-review, five-star rating for the Latitude 64 Beetle, we find the slightly-more-frequently-reviewed Westside Swan in first place. The Prodigy PA-5 would then be in second place, and the EV-7 Mobius takes third place.

Straightest Flying Disc Golf Discs

June 18, 2026 Ted Hegemann 2 comments

I’ve heard disc golfers say that the most difficult throw in disc golf is to throw a straight flight. Although course designers have a lot of obstacles that force us to shape our shots, they will also include holes where players have to negotiate straight, narrow tunnels. Those are the times that it is nice to have a straight-flying disc.

Why is Throwing Straight so Difficult?

When a disc moves through the air at high speed, the physics of its shape and rotation typically cause it to curve instead of flying in a perfectly straight line. A wider rimmed disc (higher speed discs) are typically even more difficult to throw straight.

In this blog we will define what we consider to be a straight flyer. Then we can look at the most popular straight-flying discs.

What Does ‘Straight-Flying’ Mean?

We are going to define a straight-flying disc as one with little or no turn (the drift to the right during the high-speed part of the flight, with a right-handed backhand shot), and little or no fade (drift to the left as it slows down). That should give you a fairly straight flight. You could also achieve a straight flight with a more understable (more turn) disc that you release on a hyzer angle. Then the disc can achieve a flight called ‘flip to flat’. It rotates until it is flying flat (horizontally), and it holds that line until it slows down.

Other discs have a turn and fade that makes the disc end up as if it were thrown straight. Although that flight would not be effective in a narrow tunnel, it still gives is virtually a straight disc.

Infinite Discs Reviews

Our website gives users an opportunity to leave reviews for discs and accessories. Those reviews have valuable information that can help you as you search for a new disc. We also reward reviewers with points that can be redeemed for story credit! More information about our rewards program HERE

One of the categories that people indicate when reviewing a disc is how the disc flies for them. Is it overstable? Understable? Straight? We can then use those indicators to see which discs are the straightest fliers. Below are the results.

Straightest Disc Golf Putters

MVP Nomad

The Nomad is a beaded putter in the James Conrad line. It has a straight flight with some torque resistance for power throws. The stamp is part of the line that includes some of James’ favorite places to travel. This one features Arches National Park here in Utah.

Discmania Logic
Viking Rune
Infinite Discs Cohort
Innova Firefly
Westside Swan
Dynamic Discs Marshal
Lone Star Discs Penny Putter
Discmania P1
Prodigy P Model US

Straightest Flying Midranges

Prodigy M4

The M4 features flight numbers you would expect on a straight-flying disc. It has a little turn and a gentle fade. The M4 would be a good choice for people of all skill levels.

Alfa Discs Apollo
Discmania MD1
Latitude 64 Core
Kastaplast Gote
Innova Mako
Innova Atlas
Innova Mako3
Infinite Discs Chariot
Westside Warship

Straightest Fairway Drivers

Lone Star Disc Guadalupe

The Guadalupe is a shapable disc that people are undoubtedly hyzer-flipping in order to fly straight. It has more turn and fade than some of the discs on the list.

Millenium Orion LS
Millenium JLS
Legacy Discs Patriot
Discraft Zombee
Discraft Passion
Lone Star Disc Lariat
Discmania Essence
Innova TL
Axiom Crave

Straightest Distance Drivers

Discmania Enigma

The Evolution Enigma is part of the Evolution line of discs. It is the first distance driver in the line. The Enigma can be used as a hyzer-flip disc for tunnels and long bomber shots.

Westside Sword
Westside Northman
Gateway Apache
Innova Colossus
MVP Inertia
Streamline Trace
Dynamic Discs Trespass
Axiom Tenacity
Axiom Vanish

Conclusion

Some of the drivers on the list have flight numbers that don’t seem like I would consider them straight-flying discs. Others, like the putters and mids are a lot easier to see, since they have straight flight numbers. My straight putt/approach disc, an R-Pro Dart, didn’t make the list. Neither did my straight driver, a Centurion. How about yours? What are your go-to discs for holding a straight line? Let us know in the comments!

Best Disc Golf Approach Discs

May 29, 2026 Ted Hegemann 2 comments

You can have the best drive you’ve ever thrown, but if you aren’t close enough to putt into the basket, you are going to have to make an approach shot. Make a good approach and you can drop your putter in the baskets. Mess up and you might end up working hard to get in the basket.

Approach shots are important, and which disc you chose to approach can give you the confidence you need to make a good shot. In this blog we will talk about approach discs and explore which ones are rated the highest, and which ones sell the most. That will let you know which discs other people have found success with, and can help shape your decisions.

Wait, what IS an approach disc?

OK, you really could use any disc to try to land near the basket to give yourself a putt. If you have to cover a lot of ground before you get to the basket, you might need to use a higher-speed disc. For shorter, technical shots you’ll likely use a midrange or putter. (Of course, there are exceptions, even for shorter shots.) For this blog, we are going to be talking about putters, since they are categorized as putt/approach discs. That should give us the most accurate results.

In this blog we will look at three things:

The best-selling approach putters
The highest-rated approach putters
Other popular discs that we see on the course

Top Selling Approach Discs

Here are the discs that people buy the most:

1 Axiom Pixel

2 Discraft Zone

3 Infinite Discs Tomb

4 Infinite Discs Alpaca

Highest Rated Approach Discs

Here are the discs that people give the highest reviews:

1 Discraft Zone

2 Axiom Envy

3 Gateway Wizard

4 Infinite Discs Tomb

5 Dynamic Discs Judge

10 Infinite Discs Alpaca

Honorable Mentions

Other popular approach discs:

Kastaplast Berg

There were two players on my card at league this week that bag a Berg. It is the go-to for several members of our club. I see a lot of Bergs at tournaments and other events. It is a low glide, low speed putter that will handle high-power throws. It is a great mold for accurate approach shots.

Prodigy PA-3

The PA-3 is a beaded putter that flies super straight. Its straight flight and mellow fade make a great combination for tactical approaches. It comes in a variety of plastics, so you can get the exact feel that you need to give you the confidence to attack the basket.

Axiom Proxy

A favorite of Simon Lizotte, the Proxy is another straight disc that can handle some torque. It has the same core as the Envy. The Proxy can serve you well as a putting putter, drives off the tee, or accurate approach shots.

Thought Space Athletics Praxis

This straight-flying disc can handle forehand and backhand shots with ease. It flies straight with minimal fade. The beadless Praxis can be used by people of all skill levels. Plus, with Thought Space Athletics, you’re sure to get a disc with some of the best stamps in the business!

MVP Watt

The Watt is similar to the Ohm and the Pilot. The beadless putter has a deep rim that will give you deadly-accurate straight flights. Its neutral flight numbers mean you can shape your shots and approaches with confidence.

Best Throwing Putters for 2026

May 19, 2026 Ted Hegemann 15 comments

In disc golf, a disc is sorted into types based on it’s dimensions. A disc with a rim width of .8-1.1mm is considered a putter. However, many molds that fall into that rim size are rarely used for putting. Many of them are considered approach or driving discs. Those are the molds we want to focus on today.

In this blog we will check out sales data and reviews to find the best throwing putters for 2026. Yes, we do see some people putt with these molds. But we see these mostly used off the tee or as approach discs. Let’s find the best!

Discraft Zone

If you look at the top of nearly every ‘best throwing putter’ list, you’ll find the Zone. It has the overstability to handle power shots and headwinds. Used by people of all skill levels, the Zone is a reliable option for pros, and a great workhorse utility disc for lesser-skilled players. Check out the Zone today to see why it has become so popular.

Discraft Luna

The Luna is likely tops on the list of throwing putters that are also used for putting. The Luna is the first Paul McBeth putter for Discraft. This beadless putter is great for putting and can also be used as a driver, with the stability needed for the big arm throwers. There is a reason Paul bags the Luna!

Innova Aviar

Easily the oldest mold on the list, the Aviar is likely the most-copied. It is a classic putter that is older than most people reading this. This beadless and available in most plastic types. It doesn’t have the overstability of other discs, but it is still a good, shapable mold that has stood the test of time.

Infinite Discs Tomb

With a loyal fan following, the Tomb is flat topped, beaded disc that sports a low profile. It has a perfect flight for tight woods and open fairways. It isn’t the best mold for strong headwinds. However, it is great for technical shots, putting, and works well for backhand and for hand shots. Pick one up today and join the Tomb Gang!

MVP Envy

Once James Conrad threw an Envy into the basket at the 2021 World Championship, the Envy became one of the hottest disc on the market. Don’t get me wrong, the Envy has been a hot seller from the beginning. This stable disc can be ripped with tons of power, and fly beautifully. Over time you can get a good flip-to-flat flight that makes precision approach shots a lot easier.

Gateway Wizard

While not quite as old-school as the Aviar, the Wizard has been a Gateway staple for over two decades. It consistently ranks among the best throwing putters and putting putters. You may not reach for the Wizard for extra-long drives. But you will love it for technical shots. The beaded putter can be used in as many situations as it has plastic types. It is a legendary putter that outsells every other Gateway mold by a long shot.

Kastaplast Berg

The Berg’s thumbtrack might be a deal breaker for you. But if you’re comfortable with the feel, you’ll fall in love with its deadly-accurate throws. The Berg has both a speed and glide of one, making it excel at shorter, accurate shots that sit where they land. The secret is out and more players are discovering the reliability of the Berg.

Latitude 64 Pure

The straight-flying Pure is another mold that is just as comfortable inside circle one as with long approach shots. It is beadless and feels great in the hand. The flight numbers make it great for shaping your lines. It has a touch of turn and a mild fade. The Pure is available in lots of plastics, so you’re sure to find it in your favorite type.

MVP Glitch

The Glitch has been around for a few years, and quickly became a popular mold. It has a low speed and an insanely high glide. Not only can you get impressively long flights, you can shape those flights to make the Glitch do what you want. Things can get a little tricky throwing it on a really windy day, due to the Glitch’s light weight. Personally, I only reach for my Glitch if I have a shorter, technical shots that my mid’s just can’t pull off. Under those circumstances, the Glitch shines.

Infinite Discs Alpaca

Another disc that has been popular since its release is the Alpaca. It is popular as a putting putter among Infinite’s pros. Whether you are crushing long drives, tossing technical approach shots, or putting from 10 meters, you can rely on the Alpaca. It flies accurately for a variety of shots. The beadless putter comes in lots of plastics.

So, which one is the best?

If you look at the number of discs sold, the Zone comes out on top. If you look at the nearly perfect rating, once again you’ll find the Zone. Pros love it, ams love it. Power throwers and noodle arms can bag the Zone. With all that said, the winner is the Discraft Zone.

Which Putter Do You Drive And Approach With?

There is our list. Now we want to hear from you! What is your go-to putter for drives and approaches? If you have more than one, which one do you throw the most?

Best Beginner Disc Golf Sets

April 10, 2026 Ted Hegemann One comment

Disc golf is a sport that is incredibly easy to get into. Most courses are free and people can pick up a nice set of discs for pretty cheap. In fact, the toughest thing about starting is knowing which discs to choose among the many options. That’s where a beginner disc golf set comes in. A good starter set gives you a good foundation to learn the game.

When you buy a beginner set, you aren’t just getting three random discs. A good beginner set gives you discs that work well for new players. They are carefully chosen molds that are easier to throw for newer players. Most of these molds can be used even after the player improves their form. With that in mind, let’s look at some of the best beginner disc golf sets.

Best Beginner Disc Golf Sets

1- Infinite Starter Set

This set is an awesome choice for a couple of reasons: First, it features molds that will allow you to actually use the discs right out of the box. The Sphinx is an understable fairway driver that is perfect for new players. Plus, as your skills improve you can use it as a hyzer flip or roller disc. The Anubis is a point-and-shoot mold that will hold the line and angle you put it on.

Second, the I-blend plastic that the Sphinx and Anubis come it Infinite’s I-Blend plastic. This plastic is one of my favorites because it has a great grippy fee, it is nearly as durable as any other plastic, and it is a little cheaper than other premium plastics.

2 – Doomsday Discs Prepper Set

If you aren’t familiar with Doomsday Discs, you should set aside some time to look into the brand. With an ‘end of the world’ theme, Doomsday has developed a loyal group of fans from around the world. All of the names of their discs, as well as the plastic names, follow their same theme. Doomsday Team members even get to help choose the names of new discs.

In this starter pack you get four discs and a mini marker. The discs include the Cataclysm, Dystopia, Despair in premium Survival plastic, and the Bleak putter in their soft Ration plastic. All of the discs will let beginners have a well-rounded set in their bag. And you’ll get a mini marker to use to mark your lie.

3 – Dino Discs Starter Set

Dino Discs is a brand that caters to new players, young players, and anyone else who need lighter and flippier discs. The starter set comes in their Egg Shell plastic, which can have some good looking effects. All of the molds are light weight for easier throws. They even float in water, in case you land in a pond.

4 – X-Com 3 Disc Starter Set

If you are looking for an affordable disc golf set with easy-to-throw discs, the X-Com 3 disc Starter Set might be what you need. The set comes with a putter, midrange, and driver, and they are all designed to fly well for newer players and those who lack the arm speed necessary for most discs. This set would also be good for kids. All of the molds are PDGA approved.

Check out the C-Com 3 Disc Starter Set HERE

5 – Divergent Discs Premium Plastic Starter Set

This Divergent starter set comes with a Putter, midrange, and fairway driver. The premium plastic used for these molds means that they will last longer than discs that come in less durable plastic. All of the molds are perfect for beginners. Even the driver is a low-speed fairway driver. That means less power is required to throw it.

Check out the Divergent Discs Premium Plastic Starter Set HERE

6 – Trash Panda Recycled Disc Golf Set

What is better than getting a beginner set of discs with easy-to-throw discs? How about getting a beginner set made with recycled plastic! This set comes with a putter, midrange, and driver (Inner Core, Dune, Ozone). Get yourself a great starter set while being kind to the earth.

Some Other Beginner Set Options

If you’re looking for a few more discs for your starter set, here are some good options.

Viking Discs Storm Set – 8 Discs

The 8-disc set will give you a complete bag, with a variety of speeds and flights. They come in Viking’s Storm plastic, which is durable and has good grip. This Finnish brand is rising in popularity. If you’re looking for more than just a 3-disc set, this is a great set at a great price.

Summary

A good starter set can makes buying discs a lot less intimidating, which makes disc golf a lot more enjoyable. The more you play, the more you will learn what discs you need for your skill level. That will make future disc purchases a little easier. However, as a beginner, these sets will get you started.

Now we would love to hear from you. If you started with a beginner set, what was your experience like? Did a particular disc become your go‑to? Did your first set help you get hooked on the sport, or did you upgrade quickly? Share your story in the comments and help new players get a sense of what to expect with their beginner set.

Best Disc Golf Discs For Women

Find the Best Discs For Women, Then Comment to Win

A lot of us spend time hunting for the perfect disc golf discs, trying to squeeze out a little more distance or a little more control. But as a guy, I also know that what works well for guys might not be the best fit for many women players. Strength, hand size, and throwing power can all influence which discs will fly the way they’re supposed to. So in the spirit of making disc golf more welcoming and accessible for everyone, I wanted to put together a guide focused specifically on discs that tend to work well for women.

We’ll look at the best drivers, midranges, and putters for women, along with the flight numbers and weights that usually pair well with lower‑power throws. Whether you’re brand new to the sport or already confident on the tee pad, choosing discs that match your power and form can make a huge difference in both distance and consistency.

courtesy DGPT

Why talk about different discs?

Men generally have more upper‑body strength, longer arms, and bigger hands. That combination makes it easier to throw higher‑speed discs and handle heavier weights. Women (and younger players and new players) often get better results with discs that are lighter, slower, and more understable. These discs don’t require as much power to fly correctly, which means more distance and more fun.

Let’s Talk About Flight Numbers

Briefly, the four-number flight rating system that disc golf has adopted to describe the flight of a disc is the best way we have to categorize our discs. The four numbers represent (in the order they appear on the disc or a website):

Speed – the relative speed you need to be able to throw the disc in order for it to fly correctly.
Glide – How long the disc will stay in the air
Turn – The amount the disc will drift to the right (RHBH throw) at the fastest parts of its flight
Fade – The amount that the disc will drift to the left as it starts to slow down

Which Flight Numbers Should You Consider

Disc flight is shaped by four numbers: speed, glide, turn, and fade. Matching those numbers to your throwing power is the key to getting the flight you expect. Here’s a quick breakdown of what women (and newer players, kids, and anyone with lower power) should look for:

Speed (1–14): Stick to speed 9 or below unless you’re an advanced player. Faster discs need more power to fly right.
Glide (1–7): More glide = more distance. Look for glide in the 5–7 range.
Turn (-5 to 2): More turn helps you get long, easy S‑curves. Aim for -5 to -2.
Fade (0 to 5): Keep fade low (0 to 2, so the disc doesn’t hook left too early.

Don’t forget about weight

Lighter discs (150–165g) are easier to get up to speed, which helps them fly the way they’re designed to. This is one of the easiest ways to add distance without changing your form.

Best Drivers For Women

Latitude 64 Diamond — Lightweight, easy to throw, great for developing form.
Innova Leopard — A beginner‑friendly fairway driver with gentle turn and tons of control.
Infinite Discs Sphinx — Understable, long‑gliding, and available in very light weights.

Other great options: Innova Shark, Discmania Essence, Divergent Kraken, Innova Mamba, MVP Signal, Dino Discs Pterodactyl, Innova Sidewinder.

Best Midrange Discs For Women

Discraft Buzzz — Straight, reliable, and comfortable for almost any hand size.
Infinite Discs Kon Tiki — Understable, low‑profile, and great for players with smaller hands.
Latitude 64 Fuse — Smooth, straight flights with minimal fade and lots of weight options.

Other solid picks: Axiom Paradox, Infinite Anubis, Doomsday Scavenger, Latitude 64 Pearl, Dynamic Discs Truth, Discraft Meteor, Discraft Stratus.

Best Putters For Women

Innova Aviar — A long-time classic that is great for putting, approaches, and even short drives.
Dynamic Discs Judge — Straight‑flying, with a bead. (The Warden is the beadless version.)
Infinite Discs Alpaca — A modern favorite with a clean release and a good all-around mold.

Other putters to try: Infinite Tomb, Latitude 64 Ruby, Dynamic Discs Warden, Latitude 64 Pure, Axiom Proxy, Discraft Fierce, Discmania P2.

Best Disc Golf Sets

February 20, 2026 Ted Hegemann 7 comments

Getting a starter set is one of the easiest ways for new disc golfers to jump into the sport with confidence. These sets bundle together a few well‑chosen molds at a great price, giving beginners discs that are actually designed for their skill level. Most starter sets feature lighter weights and beginner-friendlier flights, which means players can get good flights right away instead of fighting discs that are too fast or too overstable. It’s a simple way to skip the guesswork and start learning the game with tools that help you succeed.

As players gain experience and begin to understand their throwing style, they’ll find plenty of sets aimed at intermediate and advanced skill levels too. Those kits introduce more specialized molds, higher‑speed options, and plastics that offer better durability and performance. No matter where someone is in their disc golf journey, there’s a set that fits their needs and helps them grow. With that in mind, let’s take a look at the best starter sets of 2025 and what makes each one worth considering.

Best Disc Golf Sets for 2026

Divergent Discs Max Performance Starter Set

The Max Performance Starter Set from Divergent Discs brings together three beginner‑friendly molds built for easy distance and dependable control. Inside the pack you’ll find the Nuno putter, the Kapre midrange, and the Basilisk distance driver—each designed to help newer players get consistent, satisfying flights. The Basilisk, in particular, stands out as a distance driver made for players who typically throw under 250 feet, offering a full, gentle S‑curve that works beautifully for women, seniors, recreational players, and anyone still developing power.

Both the Kapre and the Nuno provide reliable stability with very little end‑fade, making them excellent choices for straight, controlled lines. All three discs come in Divergent’s Max Grip plastic, a blend known for its comfortable feel, solid durability, and excellent grip in a variety of conditions. For players looking to build confidence and explore their growing abilities, this high‑performance starter set is an easy and enjoyable way to level up their game.

Divergent Discs Premium Plastic Starter Set

The Divergent Discs 3‑disc starter set is built for brand‑new players and anyone with slower arm speed. It features three easy‑to‑throw molds:

Narwhal putter for straight, controlled approaches,
Leviathan mid‑range for effortless glide
Kraken driver, which offers a touch more speed for players learning to add distance without sacrificing accuracy.

All three discs come in durable, high‑quality plastic that outlasts many other beginner sets, making this a reliable and long‑lasting entry point into disc golf.

Viking Discs Ground Set – 8 Discs

The Viking Discs 8‑Disc Set is a full collection of the brand’s original lineup, all presented in their popular Ground plastic. This bundle brings together a variety of eight molds from a rapidly growing Finnish manufacturer, giving players a complete selection of putters, midranges, fairways, and drivers right out of the box. Buying the full set not only saves money compared to purchasing each disc individually, it’s also an easy way to start (or expand) a well‑rounded disc golf collection.

This set includes:

Viking’s Ground plastic is designed for excellent grip in all weather, hot, cold, or rainy, thanks to its flexible, slightly tacky feel. Compared to their other blends, Ground plastic tends to offer more glide and breaks in more quickly, helping discs work into straighter, more desirable flight paths over time. For players who want a complete, versatile lineup with great hand feel and dependable performance, this 8‑disc set is a standout choice.

X-Com 3 Disc Starter Set

The X‑Com beginner starter set offers a simple and affordable way to jump into disc golf. It includes a putter, a mid‑range, and a driver, each designed to fly well for players who are still developing their form. The discs are lightweight and designed for straight, flights even with low arm speed, making them especially desirable for kids and new players.

The discs in this set include:

Bennu

Griffon

Helios

Despite being targeted to beginners, all three discs are fully PDGA‑approved, so players can confidently use them in competitive play as their skills grow. For anyone looking for an easy entry point into the sport, this set delivers everything needed to get started on the course.

Divergent Discs Complete 8-Disc Set with Starter Bag

The Divergent Discs Complete 8‑Disc Set with Bag is an excellent all‑in‑one option for new and developing players. It includes a full lineup of beginner‑friendly molds. They include easy‑to‑throw discs that perform well right away, along with a few higher‑speed options you’ll grow into as your skills improve. From day one, players will find a clear purpose for each disc in the set. The set includes a starter bag that holds 8–12 discs, giving you room to expand your collection as you continue your disc golf journey.
All eight discs come in Divergent’s durable, grippy Max Grip plastic and cover every shot you’ll need on the course:

• Putters: Narwhal, Nuno
• Midranges: Leviathan, Kapre
• Drivers: Kraken, Basilisk, Lawin, Minotaur
This set truly has everything, from straight‑flying putters and workable mids, to a range of drivers from understable to overstable, making it a complete toolkit for learning the game and leveling up your performance.

Divergent Discs 3 Driver Booster Set

The Divergent Discs 3‑Disc Booster Set adds three specialty drivers to your lineup, each one offering flight characteristics not found in the Divergent Starter Set or the Max Performance Set. This trio is designed to expand your shot selection, giving you distance options and more ways to shape lines on the course.

The Lawin is a high‑speed distance driver built for power throwers or players who need dependable fade at the end of the flight. Its overstable profile makes it ideal for fighting headwinds, navigating around obstacles, or throwing full‑power drives without worrying about unwanted turn.
Lawin: 12 / 5 / -2 / 2

The Minotaur is an overstable fairway driver that delivers strong, reliable fade at shorter distances. It’s perfect for controlled placement shots, skip lines, and situations where you need a disc that will finish hard every time.
Minotaur: 8 / 3 / 0 / 4

The Tiyanak rounds out the set as a very understable fairway driver designed for players with low arm speed or anyone who struggles to get discs to fly straight. For beginners throwing under 200 feet, it provides effortless turn and long, gentle flights. For experienced players, it doubles as a roller disc, a hyzer‑flip machine, or a touchy anhyzer option. It’s the most beginner‑friendly driver in the entire Divergent lineup.
Tiyanak: 8 / 5 / -4 / 1

Together, these three discs offer a wide range of utility and make an excellent upgrade for players looking to expand their bag with purpose‑built drivers.

Divergent Discs 5 Disc Set with Mini Marker

This Divergent Discs set includes 5 discs and a mini marker. These 5 discs are in the MaxValue plastic. MaxValue provides a phenomenal tack and good grip at an ultra affordable price.

The discs include the Nuno, Kraken, Tiyanak, Kapre, and the Basalisk. These molds represent discs that are stable to understable. They are perfect for beginners and younger players. This 5-disc set includes a mini marker, which is used to mark your lie.

Viking Discs Storm Set – 8 Discs

The Viking Discs 8‑Disc Set in Storm plastic offers a complete lineup of the brand’s original molds, all made in their premium, long‑lasting blend. This bundle brings together eight well‑rounded discs from a rapidly growing Finnish manufacturer, giving players a full selection of putters, midranges, fairways, and drivers in one purchase. It’s an excellent way to start, or expand, your collection while saving money compared to buying each disc individually.

This set includes (all in Storm plastic):

• Rune
• Knife
• Axe
• Warrior
• Ragnarok
• Cosmos
• Berserker
• Thunder God Thor

Viking’s Storm plastic is a highly durable, premium‑grade blend designed to hold its flight characteristics even after repeated use on wooded courses. The plastic is clear and slightly glossy, offering a sleek, shimmering look in the hand. In terms of feel and performance, Storm plastic is comparable to Innova Champion or Latitude 64 Opto, making it a great choice for players who want discs that stay consistent round after round.

Disc Dye sets – A popular activity among many disc golfers is dyeing their discs. It’s a great way to unleash your creativity and end up with unique discs. Disc dye sets are blank discs, so you don’t have to wipe the stamp. These are bottom stamped, leaving the top unblemished and ready for the dye of your choice. Plus, they are all white!

Best Discs Golf Discs 2026

February 5, 2026 Ted Hegemann 14 comments

Throughout this series, we’ve been breaking down the top disc golf discs for 2026. We started with putters, moved into midranges, and then stepped up to the faster discs with fairway and distance drivers. Now, it’s time for the big finale: bringing all the winners together to see which mold truly stands above the rest.

Best Discs For 2024

Axiom Pixel	Putt & Approach
Innova Wraith	Distance Driver
Infinite Discs Emperor	Distance Driver
Infinite Discs Alpaca	Putt & Approach
Innova Destroyer	Distance Driver
Discraft Buzzz	Mid Range
Infinite Discs Pharaoh	Distance Driver
Infinite Discs Sphinx	Control Driver
Discraft Zone	Putt & Approach
Axiom Envy	Putt & Approach

The Axiom Pixel was the hot seller for 2024. The Pixel was released in 2023 and the first full year of sales was 2024. It is a straight-flying putter that is shapable off the tee and solid option as a putter. The Pixel is the second disc in the Simon Line, giving the putter a lot of exposure. A putt/approach disc took the top spot for the second time, following the MVP Glitch in 2023.

Let’s check out the top sellers for 2025:

The top two molds have been around, and popular, for decades. The Innova Wraith and the Discraft Buzzz have been best sellers since the early 2000’s. In third place is the slightly newer Infinite Discs Emperor. The Emperor is known for being a bomber of a driver, with many open-bag Infinite pros choosing it as their high-speed driver of choice.

The MVP Trail and the legendary driver, the Innova Destroyer were fourth and fifth in popularity. Completing the top ten are the Discraft Zone, Axiom Pixel, Innova Mamba, Gateway Wizard, and the Discraft Luna.

The Pixel went from first place in 2024 to 7th for 2025. 2023’s winner, the MVP Glitch, finished 44th place

Brands in the Top 50

Innova was the easy winner of the number of molds in the top 50. They have 14 molds, and are six ahead of both Discraft and Infinite. Innova was started in 1983 by Dave Dunipace. Dave received a patent for the first bevel-edge disc, the forerunner to today’s modern discs. Innova has released dozens of molds over the years, giving players lot of options to choose from.

There were 13 brands that had at least one mold in the top 50. Six companies only had one mold.

Most Popular Disc Types

Last year there were more distance drivers in the top 50 than any other type of disc. This year putt and approach discs take the lead. In the top 10, distance drivers are king. However, expand to the top 50 and putt/approach surpasses any other type.
