Best Disc Golf Putters of 2026

January 8, 2026 Ted Hegemann 27 comments

It’s always interesting to look at the sales data and disc ratings to see which discs are the most popular. 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!

Top Putters for 2024

We’ll start by reviewing the top discs for 2024. Then we can see which discs changed spots, and if they went up or down. Here are the top 10 discs for 2024.

Top 50 Disc Golf Putters for 2025

It is impressive to see that there are nine discs that appear on both lists. Only the Axiom Proxy joined the top 10, replacing the MVP Glitch.

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.

Brands With the Most Molds in the Top 50

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.

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.

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.

Best Disc Golf Plastics

September 11, 2025 Ted Hegemann 11 comments

In the current state of disc golf, we have lots of choices of plastic types. The type of plastic affects the flight, the feel, and the look of the disc. And it can determine the life expectancy of the disc. In this blog we will look at different plastics, and find the best type for a variety of disc types.

Plastic Characteristics

If you look at any disc on Infinite’s website, you can see which plastic types are available for that mold. Once you click on a plastic type, you’ll see a graph that rates three characteristics of that particular plastic. Those three may make a difference as to whether we choose that plastic or not. Those three characteristics are Durability, Softness, and Grip. Those qualities will help us as we discuss the best plastics for each category that we will explore. Let’s check out the best plastics!

Best Disc Golf Plastic For Drivers

When we reach for our drivers, we are more likely to be going for distance and throwing with more power. That means we will be hitting objects harder, and a more durable plastic would be preferable. However, durability is a double-edge sword when it comes to drivers. An extremely durable plastic will give you a longer life and once its broke in it will keep a consistent flight for a long time. Conversely, it may take a long time to break in, leaving you with a less than desirable flight until it becomes ‘seasoned’. Overall, a durable premium plastic is desirable in a driver. That is why there are so many durable plastics in the top 5.

One exception is DX plastic. DX is a base plastic that beats in quickly. It is inexpensive, making it a great choice for beginners, or people wanting to try new molds. Although it does get seasoned quickly, it can also get too beat in, making it flippy.

Here are the top five best plastics for drivers:

Star – This popular plastic comes in a variety of colors and molds. It is durable and has an amazing feel.
ESP
Neutron
I-Blend
DX

Best Plastic For Putters

When looking at the most popular plastic for putters, you find two different grip extremes. Softer, grippier plastics are great for short range putting due to their ability to ‘grab’ the chains. However, stiffer plastics are great for driving or approach shots. Here are the top five plastics for putters:

Neutron – Some of our best-selling approach discs come in Neutron plastic. It is a durable plastic, and the overmold adds another layer of durability.

DX
P-Blend Glow

Best Plastics For Dyeing

Disc golf plastic good for custom disc dyes

Disc dyeing is a popular activity among disc golfers. It gives people and opportunity to unleash their creativity, and end up with a unique disc. There are many different methods for dyeing a disc, but the goal is the same: to get the dye into the plastic. They type of plastic used makes a huge difference in the results of a dye. In this category, premium plastics rule the day. Base plastics can be dyed, but the results are never as good as dyeing premium plastics.

Here are the best plastics for dyeing discs:

Star – A white Star disc will give the best results from dyeing. It makes colors pop and resists bleeding.
ESP
S-Blend
Prodigy 400G
Tournament

Best Plastic For Winter

Playing disc golf in cold weather presents some new challenges for those willing to brave the winter temperatures. First, discs fly differently in colder weather. The plastic is stiffer and you get less glide from your discs. They also tend to be more overstable due to the air density. Grip is also affected by the cold stiff plastic. And cold temperature disc golfers always run the risk of cracking their discs due to hitting a hard object like a tree or light post. With those challenges in mind, we can explore which discs are best for winter play

GStar – Not only does the GStar excel in winter golf, it has a sheen and textured look that is beautiful. GStar plastic remains soft even in cold weather, giving you a consistent feel year ‘round.
Neutron Soft
Base Plastics
G-Blend
FLX

Honorable mention: Elevation Discs – Elevation’s extra-soft materials are just as floppy in winter as in summer. Try one of their molds and see what the hype is about.

Best Plastics For Beginners

When we are starting out in disc golf, most of us experiment with molds and plastics until we find the discs that work the best for us. A great option to start with is a base plastic. Base plastics have several qualities that make them good for beginners. They have good grip and are softer than some premium discs. They also break in faster than premium discs, giving you a good flight in a shorter amount of time. Plus, they are the least expensive plastic. If you are experimenting with molds, it won’t cost as much to try new ones.

DX – This plastic feels good and breaks in quickly. Being cheaper than premium is a nice bonus.

Best Plastic For Night Disc Golf

Glow in the dark disc plastic by MVP brightly glowing in the dark.

Although glow-in-the-dark plastics are common and most brands offer some glow options, not all glow plastics are created equal. Some brands get it right and their plastic glows brightly and holds it for a long time. Others have a glow so weak that it is difficult to tell if it is actually glow plastic. Fortunately, several brands have reworked their glow plastics and have really improved their products.

Night rounds are a blast and one of the things that makes it great is watching your glowing disc in flight. Having a plastics that glows bright makes it fun to watch, and makes it easier to find your disc. Here are the best plastics for night disc golf:

Eclipse 2.0 – MVP has some of the best glow plastic on the planet. They are consistently bright and long lasting. Get a few MVP, Axiom, or Streamline molds for your glow rounds.
Lone Star Glow
K1 Glow
Innova Glow
TSA Glow

Most Durable Disc Golf Plastics

Durable Champion Plastic

Durable plastics are great for disc golf because there are usually lots of obstacles on a course. Durable plastics can take a hit without losing their flight characteristics. Softer, less durable plastics get dinged up easier, which can alter the flight and stability of a disc. Sometimes dings and dents can alter the flight so much that it may need to be replaced.

Discs made of durable plastic take longer to get ‘seasoned’ and achieve the desired flight. But once they do, you can usually throw the disc for a long time and still have a consistent flight. Although the most durable discs are not indestructible, they can definitely take more abuse than softer discs. Here are some of the most durable plastics.

Champion – This translucent plastic is an extra-durable workhorse. Get your favorite mold in Champion and that disc will last for a long time.

Best Disc Golf Discs For Beginners

September 1, 2025 Ted Hegemann One comment

What Beginners Should Know About Choosing Disc Golf Discs

If you’re new to disc golf, the number of disc options can feel overwhelming. There are flight numbers, plastic types, and weight, all influencing how a disc performs. That’s before you even consider what colors or stamps you want. This guide will simplify those factors so you can make an informed choice.

To an outsider, all discs might look the same. But in reality, some discs are tailored for beginner-friendly learning, while others are designed for experienced players. This post focuses on molds that support beginners in developing proper form and confidence.

Understanding Disc Flight Numbers

Disc golf uses a four-number flight rating system. While imperfect, it’s the most useful benchmark we have. Here is what each digit tells you and why it matters:

Speed: Indicates how fast you must throw the disc for it to fly correctly. High-speed discs must be thrown a lot faster than slower-speed discs. Attempting to throw high-speed discs without the proper skill can encourage poor form. Beginners should stick with speeds between 1 and 5. You can get slightly faster discs if you can find them in lighter weights (under 160g)
Glide: Describes how long the disc stays in the air. Higher glide numbers help beginners maximize distance with less power.
Turn: Measures how much the disc will veer to the right (for a right-handed, backhand player) when thrown with speed. Beginners benefit from discs with turn ratings between –1 and –4. If your disc starts turning too much early in flight, consider a faster or more stable mold.
Fade: Reflects how much the disc will curve to the left at the end of its flight. Lower fade values are easier for beginners to manage, since their throws tend to lack high velocity.

What About Disc Weight

Although the flight numbers on a disc might make it good or bad for beginners, the weight of a disc can also make a big difference. Lighter disc golf discs are often better for beginners because they require less power to throw effectively, making it easier to get more distance with less effort.

Heavier discs can be harder to control for new players since they require faster arm speed to achieve a full flight, often resulting in short or inaccurate throws. A lighter disc is also more forgiving, as it tends to glide longer and stay in the air, giving beginners more time to see how their throw affects the disc’s flight. This added distance and control can help new players build confidence while developing proper form.

With those tips in mind, let’s look at the best disc golf discs for beginners.

MVP Ohm The Ohm is a straight-flying, very glidey putter from MVP. Even though is has a high glide, it can comfortably be used as a putting putter. The mold is similar to the Streamline Pilot.
Discraft Archer A former Ace Race disc, the Archer is popular among beginners for is flippy flight, and more skilled players look for a disc that will hold a turn. It has a shallow feel to the rim.
Gateway Voodoo Another straight putter, the Gateway Voodoo has an interesting feel. It is soft and very grippy. The Voodoo comes in a variety of plastic types.
Innova TL3 Considered by Innova to be, “the evolution of the TL”, the TL3 is like a straighter TeeBird. It is also a great disc for newer players who want to take the next step and get a control driver.
Viking Axe The Axe is a domey midrange disc. It has little turn and fade. It’s great for accuracy and controlled shots.
Discraft Roach Another Ace Race disc, the Roach is a popular putter from Discraft. The beadless disc makes a great approach disc, and is perfect for smashing chains.
TSA Pathfinder The Pathfinder is a straight midrange disc from Thought Space Athletics. In addition to its shapable flight, since it is Thought Space, you know the stamp will be next level and the plastic will feel amazing!
Innova Cobra The Innova Cobra has been around longer than nearly all of the beginners who would throw it. It is a midrange that has a little more turn than other mids on the list, and a little more fade. That combination will give you more options for shaping your shot.
Yikun Yan With a little more glide than most mids, the Yan is a deep-rim, straight disc that will hold any line you put it on. It is a great choice for picking up some distance with little effort.
Viking Cosmos Another great option for beginners who want a disc with a little more distance potential is the Viking Cosmos. Its flight is just what a beginner will need to expanding their game.

If you look at each of the discs listed, you’ll find they all fit the description above of what makes a great beginner disc. None of them are high-speed discs. None of them have crazy fade. They are all stable to understable discs. They are just what you should look for as you start your disc golf Journey!

Best Disc Golf Brands

August 18, 2025 Ted Hegemann 34 comments

If you’ve been playing disc golf very long, you have probably noticed the explosion of new brands entering the market. Every month, you can see new brands getting molds approved by the PDGA. Although many of those molds will never see the light of day, many will hit the market. Some of those will take off and become popular. Those disc sales are affecting the older, established brands. That is what we will talk about today.

In this blog, we will look at the popularity of all the major brands. We will take our data from Infinite’s sales for the past several years. That will show us which brands have sold the most, and how those numbers have changed over the past few years.

Percentage of Sales by Brand

The following chart represents sales by brand on the InfiniteDiscs.com retail site. The brands listed are in order based on sales for 2025.

	Brand	2025 to Date	2024	2023	2022	2021	2020	2019	2018

20	Mint Discs	0.7%	0.5%	0.70%	0.72%	0.54%	0.37%	0.42%	0.22%

Comparing the Disc Golf Market of 2018 with 2025

In 2018, the disc golf market was largely dominated by a few key players. Innova stood as the undisputed leader with a commanding 37.17% market share. Discmania was our #2 selling brand with 9.06% and Dynamic Discs slightly behind at 8.96% of brand market share. While Discraft held a significant 7.68%, they were no where near Innova in terms of disc golf brand sales.

Here in 2025, the landscape looks a bit different. Although Innova is still the sales leader, their share of the market has dropped significantly since 2018. Discraft made big gains in 2019 after signing Paul McBeth. With additional pro signings, they have nearly caught Innova as the sales leader.

Other brands, like Doomsday, TSA, or Lonestar didn’t even exist in 2018. They are starting to carve out their own slices of the pie.

The biggest growth of the market share pie is the “Others” category. In 2018, disc golf brands outside of the top twelve represented only 6.5% of disc golf sales. This year, the others account for nearly 19% of our online sales. That is more than any single brand. It is, however, down a little bit from last year’s nearly 21%. It will be interesting to see if that number changes after a full year of sales.

Pandemic Disc Golf Brands

The Covid 19 pandemic lead to unprecedented growth in disc golf and the number of disc golf businesses. We currently sell over 40 different disc golf brands that didn’t even exist in 2018.

Lone Star Disc’s ascension from no Infinite Discs sales in 2020 to 1.6% brand share in 2024 demonstrates the power of local and regional branding. By tapping into the Texan spirit, they have captured the hearts of players in their area and beyond. While Lone Star was new to disc golf during the pandemic, they were not new to mold creation or injection molding. Their ability to produce dozens of molds almost instantly and their acquisition of a large professional and amateur disc golf team have had a big impact on their rapid growth. However, the brand has dropped in sales recently.

Additionally, the meteoric rise of Clash Discs from no US Sales in 2021 to 2.9% of the market share in 2023 illustrates the potential of novel marketing approaches and product differentiation.

Interestingly, Infinite Discs, while not a new entrant during the pandemic, has also seen impressive growth from 3.60% in 2018 to 14.7% of brand market share in 2024 thus far. Because we are InfiniteDiscs.com, the results are undoubtedly skewed from our direct sales, as Infinite Discs fans are more likely to shop from our retail site than anywhere else.

Likewise, Thought Space Athletics is another brand that has rapidly grown and seen sizeable market share added. Over the last six years they have gone from an obscure niche brand to a mainstream competitor. The focus on disc aesthetics and the signing several notable professional players certainly has helped.

Impact of Professional Players Switching Sponsors

Discraft and Paul McBeth

Discraft experienced a significant rise in its brand market share between 2018 and 2020, largely attributed to a strategic move that had a profound impact on the disc golf world. At the heart of this transformative shift was the signing of Paul McBeth, the then-undisputed number one disc golfer in the world. McBeth’s association with Innova, his long-standing sponsor, made his unexpected transition to Discraft a remarkable development. This transition was fueled by the allure of the first multi-million-dollar disc golf contract, shaking the foundations of the sport. McBeth’s immense popularity and prowess on the course created a seismic effect that reverberated across the sport, drawing newfound attention to Discraft. However, Discrafts rapid growth can’t be solely attributed to McBeth’s signing.

At the same time, Discraft also implemented strategic moves by producing more visually appealing discs and adding flight numbers to their stock discs. The timing of Discraft’s acquisition of former professional Ultimate Frisbee player Brodie Smith coincided with the pandemic shutdown of most Ultimate Frisbee events due to pandemic restrictions. This confluence of factors acted as a catalyst for Discraft’s rapid expansion, turning the brand into the second major contender in the disc golf industry.

MVP and Simon Lizotte

The year 2022 witnessed a remarkable surge in the market presence of both MVP and Axiom. A pivotal catalyst for this growth was the strategic sponsorship of Simon Lizotte, widely regarded as one of the most popular disc golfers globally. Renowned not only for his exceptional skills on the course but also for his charismatic personality and substantial YouTube and social media followings, Lizotte’s affiliation with MVP and Axiom injected newfound energy and visibility into the brands.

With an engaging and dynamic presence, Lizotte captivated audiences and fans worldwide, drawing attention to MVP and Axiom discs in the process. His influence extended beyond just his performances on the course, transcending into a vibrant online community. This symbiotic relationship between Simon Lizotte’s appeal and the brands’ products culminated in a notable uptick in their market share. The combination of innovative disc designs, Lizotte’s influencer status, and his ability to connect with disc golf enthusiasts contributed to the meteoric rise of MVP and Axiom, solidifying their positions as influential players in the ever-evolving disc golf landscape.

MVP’s market share surged from 5.76% in 2018 to an impressive 8.20% in 2023. It dipped a little in 2025, but not by much. Axiom, a subsidiary of MVP, has had a more favorable trajectory. Axiom has grown from 3.25% in 2018 to 8.4% in 2025, showcasing their ability to carve out their niche in the market with pretty steady growth.

Discmania, Dynamic Discs and Latitude 64

Discmania’s trajectory is also noteworthy. Although their market share has decreased slightly from 9.1% in 2018 to 3.7% in 2025, their ability to maintain a considerable share amidst a rapidly expanding market signifies a dedicated following. This trend is echoed by brands like Latitude 64 and Dynamic Discs, which have also maintained consistent shares recently, demonstrating their ability to foster brand loyalty.

Growth of New Disc Golf Brands

The data also underscores the growth of niche brands. Thought Space Athletics, a brand focusing on unique disc designs, has grown from 0% in 2018 to 3.6% in 2025. Similarly, Kastaplast, with its distinctive Swedish heritage and unique plastic blends, has grown from 0.8% in 2018 to 2.5% in 2025. These examples highlight the impact of brand identity and differentiation in a crowded market.

Furthermore, the diversification of the market is evident in the proliferation of smaller brands. While individually they may not command substantial market shares, collectively they contribute to the richness of options available to players. Brands like RPM Discs, DGA, Viking Discs, and Finish Line Discs may not dominate the market, but they cater to specific tastes and preferences.

The evolution of disc golf brands is evidence of the broader trend of the sport’s growing popularity. As more players enter the scene and as the sport gains recognition, the market becomes a battleground for innovation, quality, and brand loyalty. The increasing number of brands also speaks to the democratization of the sport, as more players are drawn in and more entrepreneurs seize the opportunity to create and promote their products.

The past six years have seen a shift in the disc golf market. While Innova’s leadership has slightly waned, it still maintains its position as the leading brand. However, the rise of MVP, Axiom, Lone Star Disc, and others indicates that the industry is open to disruption and innovation. The disc golf landscape is no longer characterized by a few giants, but rather by a diverse array of brands catering to different tastes, regions, and playing styles. This evolution bodes well for the continued growth and dynamism of the sport.

Best Distance Drivers 2025

August 6, 2025 Ted Hegemann 31 comments

When you want to get the most distance from your drives, you’re usually reaching for your high-speed drivers. Also called distance driver, this type of disc has the widest rim of all types, and the usually require the most skill to maximize the achievable distance. They are the super-athlete of the disc golf world, since they hold distance records, and are used by pros and amateurs alike. Much like our Best Putters, Best Midranges, and Best Fairway Drivers we will look at the sales data to find the best disc golf distance drivers for 2025, and give you some ideas of discs you might want to try.

Like always, we’ll start by showing the Best Distance Drivers for 2024

Best Disc Golf Distance Drivers 2024

Taking the top spot for sales is the Innova Wraith. The Wraith is a speed 11 disc that has a flight similar to some of the other top discs on the list. Taking second is the Infinite Discs Emperor, followed by the most popular driver of all time, the Innova Destroyer.

Top Wraith Plastics

Checking out the top plastic sales for the number one Wraith we find that the most popular Wraith plastic sold is Star plastic. Star plastic outsold second place Gummy Champion by three times! It was responsible for over a third of all Wraith sales last year. The third place most popular plastic is GStar.

Now let’s look at the top sellers for last year.

Top 50 Best Disc Golf Distance Drivers 2025

We’ve looked at the sales data for the top distance drivers, and now we’ll look at the top RATED discs. The infinite discs website allows customers to leave feedback and ratings on discs and accessories, and is a good resource for finding highly rated disc products. Let’s look at some of the distance drivers with the highest ratings. For our ‘Highest Rated’ sections, our system sorts by mold and plastic type.

Highest Rated Distance Drivers

Taking the number one spot with the highest consumer rating for distance drivers is Infinite Discs’ popular high-speed driver, the Emperor. The speed 12 driver has a popular flight that features a little turn with a reliable solid fade. It is available in numerous plastic types. It is also the signature disc of some of the top pros. The I-Blend Emperor has a 4.93 rating out of 5. Nearly perfect!

In second place with a rating of 4.86 is the Star Innova Wraith. Taking third is the Discmania Neo Enigma. The Enigma has a customer rating of 4.73.

Highest Rated Overstable Distance Drivers

Since the Emperor is considered an overstable driver and is the highest rated driver, it is obviously going to be the highest rated overstable driver. In this category, the Emperor took first, second, and tied for third, with three different plastics represented. In second place with 4.91 stars out of five is the Signature Swirly S-Blend. In third place at 4.90 stars is the Signature I-Blend. Also at 4.90 is the Halo Star Destroyer.

Highest Rated Understable Disc Golf Driver

Looking at the other end of the stability spectrum we have the highest rated understable drivers. The Innova Tern took the top two spots. The Star Tern is the highest rated at 4.78. Just a little behind the Star is the Champion Tern, with 4.69 stars. Infinite Discs’ I-Blend Maya came in third with its 4.68 rating.

The next two molds on the understable list, the Axiom Insanity and the Lone Star Disc Mockingbird, are tied at an impressive rating of 4.79.

Highest Rated Stable & Straight Flying Drivers

Checking out distance drivers with a more neutral flight, meaning little turn and a less aggressive fade, we find the stable Infinite Discs Splatter S-Blend Pharaoh leading the pack for the title of Best Stable Distance Driver with a rating of 4.91. The Pharaoh is a high-speed driver that comes in a variety of plastics.

In second place with a rating of 4.89 is the Streamline Neutron SL Trace. In the last podium spot, we find the MVP Neutron Tesla, rated at 4.4 out of five stars.

Best Disc Golf Fairway Drivers 2025

August 1, 2025 Ted Hegemann 53 comments

A disc golf fairway driver is designed for controlled distance and accuracy off the tee. Typically, it has a narrower rim compared to a distance driver, which allows for a more stable flight and greater control over a variety of throws. Fairway drivers are ideal for players who want accuracy, while still covering a substantial amount of ground. They work well for both beginners learning proper technique and experienced players looking for a disc that can handle a variety of shots, such as controlled hyzers, anhyzers, and straight throws. In this blog we will look at the best disc golf fairway drivers for 2025.

Best Fairway Drivers 2025

Much like our Best Putters of 2025 and Best Midrange Discs of 2025 blog posts, this week we will look at the Best Fairway Drivers of 2025. We’ll look at the top selling molds, the most popular brands, and the highest rated discs. Let’s start with the top molds for 2024, so we can look for changes:

Infinite Discs took two of the top three spots on the 2024 list, and four molds in the top 10. Taking first place is the popular Sphinx. The Sphinx accounted for 5% of all fairway drivers sold in 2024. It is a mold that I throw frequently.

Top 50 For 2025

Okay, now lets check out the top 50 control drivers for the first half of 2025:

The flippy fairway driver, the Sphinx held on to the top spot for 2025. Latitude 64’s River is off to a great start for 2025, reaching the podium. Two newer molds broke the top 10: Doomsday Discs’ Chemtrail and the Discraft Cigarra were both released within the past year, and still found a spot in the top 10. They join a long-time favorite, the Innova Firebird as top sellers.

Speaking of Innova, it looks like they had more molds in the top 50 than any other brand. The top 5 most popular brands remained the same and in the same order.

Top Fairway Driver Brands

Smaller brands such as Dino Discs and Mint Discs joined Westside with one mold in the top 50.

Highest Rated Fairway Drivers

Shifting from the best disc golf fairway drivers based on sales, we look at the highest rated fairway molds. Infinite Discs allows customers to rate individual discs and products to help other disc golfers see how other people feel about discs and accessories.

A quick check of the highest rated fairway drivers and we see that the Infinite Discs I-Blend Sphinx is the highest rated with 4.85 out of five stars. Tied for second place, just a tick behind the Sphinx with 4.84 is the Star TeeBird. They TeeBird is followed by a tie between the Lucid Felon and the Star Firebird. It’s easy to see why these molds sell so many discs. Based on the reviews, people really love them!

Highest Rated Overstable Fairway Drive

The highest-rated overstable fairway driver is a beefy disc from MVP, the Terra. The Terra is a disc that its reviewers absolutely love! It is an overstable mold that is in the James Conrad line of discs. It may not work as well for beginners. But, if you have a good arm you might want to consider this fairly beefy thrower from MVP.

Legacy had two Rivals in the top three, in second place is the Icon plastic, and in third, Pinnacle plastic.

Highest Rated Stable Fairway Driver

Fairway drivers that have minimal high-speed turn and fade are considered ‘stable’. These discs are shapable to suit the needs of a particular situation. The mold with the highest rating in this category is the Infinite Discs Centurion. The speed 7 Centurion has a little bit of turn at high speed, and a relatively mild fade at the end of its flight. It has an Infinite rating of 4.86, making it one of the higher rated discs of any category. In second place for fairway drivers is the Discmania Essence, rated at 4.79. A couple tenths behind the Essence is the Innova TL3. The TL3 is a faster version of the TL, which is a less overstable version of the TeeBird. It has an rating of 4.59

Highest Rated Understable Fairway Driver

Sometimes you need a bit more turn on your throws in order to either shape the shot you want, or keep turning over until you get a roller. In other words, you need something understable. Here is a list of some of the highest-rated molds that have a bit more understability in their flight.

Sitting at the top of the list as the highest rated and top selling understable fairway driver is Infinite Discs’ Sphinx. It is a flippy speed 9 disc that can definitely give you some turn in your flight. The Sphinx is rated at 4.87 out of five stars. Second place is another speed 9 mold,the Innova Valkyrie. The Valk has a rating of 4.48. In third place a little behind the Valk is the Innova Leopard. The Leopard is rated 4.46.

Best Disc Golf Putters of 2025

July 15, 2025 Ted Hegemann 26 comments

At Infinite, we like to look at our sales data for the year to see which discs are hot, and what changes in disc preference we see with our customers. Now that we’ve reached the half way point of the year, we wanted to look at our sales and the disc ratings for 2025 so far. First, let’s look at the data for 2024.

Top 50 Disc Golf Putters For 2024

Despite the second- through fifth-place molds remaining consistent, 2024 has welcomed a new top-seller. The Axiom Pixel, which made its debut late 2023, didn’t have the opportunity to surpass the well-liked Glitch. However, last year, the Pixel sold sufficiently to claim first place, making up over 7% of all putter sales! The Glitch has fell to seventh place.

Although the Glitch holds the top spot for the year, its sales numbers have dropped a bit from the first of the year. When we looked at the sales data mid-year 2024, the Glitch represented over 10% of all putters sold. However, it is still holding a good sized market share.

Let’s look at the top five molds for 2024:

1 MVP Glitch

2 Infinite Discs Alpaca

3 Discraft Zone

4 Axiom Envy

5 Infinite Discs Tomb

New to the top 10 for 2024 are the Prodigy PA-3 and Latitude 64 Pure.

Check out the top 20 best-selling disc golf putters of last year HERE where you can see all the top molds and what’s on sale!

Top 50 Disc Golf Putters For 2025

The Discraft Zone worked its way back to the top spot for 2025. The perennial favorite joins most of the top 10 in appearing in some order on the list.

Here are the top five for 2025:

1 – Discraft Zone

2 – Axiom Pixel

3 – Infinite Discs Alpaca

4 – Gateway Wizard

5 – Infinite Discs Tomb

Joining the elite top 10 for 2025 is the Streamline Range. The Range was released later in the year last year, and didn’t have time to make the list.

Top Brands for Best Putters

Once again, Discraft has the most molds in the top 50 with seven. In addition to the number one Zone, they also have the Luna in the top ten. MVP has the second most brands in the top 50. They were one mold shy of number one with six molds. Their top selling putter is the Glitch. Tied for the third most brands in the top 50 were Axiom, Kastaplast, and Discmania.

Highest Rated Disc Golf Putters

One of the awesome benefits to using the Infinite Discs site to shop is that you can read the reviews and see the ratings for discs you are interested in trying. Over time, the ratings become a great way to see what your fellow disc golfers think about certain molds. The ratings system is also part of the Infinite Rewards program. If you aren’t familiar with the Infinite Rewards program, where you can earn rewards by giving reviews or making purchases, check it out HERE and help our review data by giving feedback on your favorite discs.

We wanted to look at the discs in several different categories and see which molds are the top rated in those categories. We’ll start with the highest rated disc golf putters of all time.

All-Time Highest Rated Putters

The Discraft Zone nailed down the top spot again with the Z line plastic. It has an average rating of 4.91 out of 5 stars. Tying for second is the ESP Zone and the Neutron Soft Glitch. Both of those molds have 4.84 stars. These discs are typically throwing putters. Although there are people who use them to putt,

#1 Discraft Z-Line Zone – The zone is popular and highly rated partly because of its overstability. It can handle any headwind and nearly every arm and still get good distance. Plus, its thick rim feels amazing to grip and gives you confidence in your drives and upshots.

#2 Discraft ESP Zone

#3 MVP Neutron Soft Glitch

Check out the top 20 highest rated putters HERE where you can see all the top molds and what’s on sale!

Highest Rated Very Overstable Disc Golf Putters

You might not have heard of the Goliath Discs Pillar before but it is the highest rated very overstable disc. The Pillar has an impressive 4.94-star rating! Taking second is the Westside BT Medium Harp, with 4.83 stars. In third place with a 4.81 star rating is the Innova R-Pro Rhyno.

#3 Goliath Discs Oasis Pillar The Pillar is a super-beefy putter that is great for headwinds and big arms. Their Oasis plastic is a clear, extra-durable blend.

#2 Westside Discs BT Medium Harp

#3 Innova R-Pro Rhyno

Highest Rated Overstable Disc Golf Putters

When James Conrad threw his Envy into the basket on the last hole at the 2021 World Championships in Utah, he certainly gave a nice boost in sales for the putter. The Axiom Envy holds the top spot in the ‘overstable putter’ category with 4.87 out of 5 stars. The Eclipse 2.0 Envy, however, has a perfect 5.0 rating. Taking second place is the Jawbreaker Zone, with a 4.95 rating. In the final podium spot is the long-time Gateway hit, the Wizard. In Super Stupid Soft, the Wizard averages 4.94 stars.
Although any putter could be used as a thrower or a putter, most of the discs in the Very Overstable and Overstable Putters categories are used as throwing putters.

#1 Axiom Discs Eclipse 2.0 Envy – The overstable, throwing/putting putter has an overstable flight, but is still shapable and useful in a variety of situations on the course. The Envy’s profile is a little thinner than some putters, which is appealing to many. An older, more beat in Envy can be used in tight fairways and situations where control is crucial.

#2 Discraft Jawbreaker Zone

#3 Gateway Super Stupid Soft Wizard

Check out the top 20 overstable disc golf putters HERE where you can see all the top molds and what’s on sale!

Highest Rated Stable Flying Disc Golf Putters

For a neutral flying putter, it’s hard to beat the glidey Glitch. For long putts, approach sots, or playing catch to warm up, the Glitch is a go-to disc for many. The Neutron Soft Glitch has an average rating of 4.84. Discs with stable flights can be used by such a large number of people with differing skill levels and in a large variety of situations. That is why there are so many on this list that are top selling discs, too.

Tied for second place are two Infinite molds: The D-Blend Alpaca, one of our top-selling molds, and the D-Blend

#1 MVP Neutron Soft Glitch – Because the Glitch has a huge amount of glide, it is great for long putts, approach shots, or even shots off the tee. The Glitch also makes a great catch disc to warm up before a round.

#T2 Infinite Discs D-Blend Alpaca

#T2 Infinite Discs D-Blend Tomb

Highest Rated Understable Disc Golf Putters

Although the understable putter category has some well-known names in the top 10, such as the Fierce and the Dynamic Discs Deputy, it is also full of lesser known molds. To be on top of this category apparently requires perfection. The top three molds all have 5.0 ratings! Check out the top 20 to see how many of brands you are familiar with.

#T1 Prime Burst Deputy

#T1 Prodigy 400 PA-5

Best Disc Golf Approach Discs

June 2, 2025 Ted Hegemann 2 comments

The Best Disc Golf Approach Discs

The disc golf putter is the true workhorse of the sport. It’s the disc you trust for drives off the tee, precision approaches, and that final putt into the basket. While you can throw any disc for any shot, you probably aren’t reaching for a high-speed driver when you’re inside 100 feet. Or putting with a fairway driver (unless it is a tap in or a short putt). The disc golf putter, on the other hand, is a versatile tool that shines in a variety of shot types.

What is an approach disc?

Obviously, any disc golf disc can be used to approach a basket. Since the goal of approaching the basket is to land as close as possible to make your putt as easy as possible, you don’t want to worry about big skips. Using lower speed discs that will sit down easier helps you achieve that goal. That makes putters a great choice for an approach disc. Midrange discs can also be used effectively.

Since most putters are labeled as “putt & approach” discs, it would help to know the difference between a “putting putter” and an “approach disc”. Unfortunately, there isn’t a rule that defines the difference between the two types of discs. Generally speaking, putters used for drives or approach shots are overstable, premium plastics, with more glide than putters used for putts. However, you can always find disc golfers who putt with molds that have the qualities of an ‘approach putter’.

Fortunately, most of the discs on our list would be considered approach putters by a majority of disc golfers, so are effectively looking at the top approach putters. In this blog, we’ll look at three things:

The best-selling approach putters
The highest-rated approach putters
And some of the other approach discs we see on the course.

Let’s go!

Top-Selling Approach Discs

Here are the discs that players can’t stop buying this year:

Highest-Rated Approach Discs

Want to know which discs have the best reputations? According to player ratings, these are the top approach discs:

Popular Approach Discs Seen on Courses

Some discs may not top the sales charts or the ratings, but they’re everywhere on the course. Let’s highlight a few of the classic approach discs that deserve a shout-out:

Innova Gator

The Gator is an overstable, bead-edged beast that thrives in windy conditions and tight lines. It’s technically a midrange, but many players treat it like an approach disc due to its overstability and reliable fade. Plus, it’s a great disc for both backhand and forehand shots.

Check out the Gator HERE

Dynamic Discs Justice

The Justice is about as overstable as it gets. If you need a disc that laughs at headwinds and dumps hard to the left (for RHBH players), the Justice is your friend. It’s perfect for flex lines and sharp doglegs where you need a reliable finish.

Check out the Justice HERE

Innova Aviar

The Innova Aviar has been a staple among disc golfers for decades. It is less stable than many discs on our lists, and more likely to be used as a putting disc. However, many disc golfers love the reliability and feel of the classic disc.

Check out the Aviar HERE

Discraft Zone OS

If you are looking for a disc that can handle a little more arm speed, or you’re throwing into a headwind, the Zone OS should be on your radar. It is beefy enough for the best players, yet it can be used by less experienced players as a utility disc. Even if you already throw a Zone, you’ll find shots that will call for the OS.

Check out the Zone HERE

Latitude 64 Pure

The Pure is an easily shapable putter that many people use as an approach disc. It will hold it’s line on an anhyzer shot, straight shot, or even a hyzer shot, without big skips or massive fades.

Check out the Pure HERE

Discmania P2

The P2 is known for its versatility, especially in different plastics. S-Line P2s are more overstable and great for driving, while D-Line P2s beat in to give a straight, floaty flight. Whether you want a disc that can hold an anhyzer or one that fights back for a hyzer finish, the P2 delivers.

Check out the P2 HERE

The Axiom Envy

The Envy has been a staple in the approach game for years, and it’s no surprise it still ranks among the best. Known for its versatility, the Envy can handle smooth hyzers, straight shots, and even turnovers when beaten in. The popularity of James Conrad’s legendary “Holy Shot” at the 2021 World Championship only boosted its fanbase. Available in a wide range of plastics and colors, the Envy is a must-try for any disc golfer.
