Best Disc Golf Distance Drivers 2026

Check out the top distance drivers, and you could win a gift card!

Every year we like to look at the best sellers and the highest rated disc golf molds to see what it hot. We present this information in a series of blogs. This week we’re doing it again. We’ve covered the top putters, midrange discs, and fairway drivers. Now we’ll discuss the best distance drivers for 2026.

Best Distance Drivers

Distance drivers are a fun type of disc to throw. Typically, when we reach for our distance drivers we are trying to throw it as far as possible. Since they are in the air longer than other types of discs, we get to see them turn and fade in an aerial ballet.

Although a certain skill is required to throw high-speed discs properly, newer players can ‘cheat’ the system by picking up lighter discs that let them throw faster. That lets them throw higher speed discs than they normally would be able to throw.

Distance drivers are usually in the speed 10 and above range. They range in stability from flippy to beefy. If disc golfers can get a long throw with their drivers, it will set them up for an easier approach or even a putt.

Best Distance Drivers 2024

Before we look at the best distance drivers for last year, lets check out the best discs from the year before. Then we can see what has changed.

  1. Innova Wraith
  2. Infinite Discs Emperor
  3. Innova Destroyer
  4. Infinite Discs Pharaoh
  5. Innova Mamba
  6. Infinite Discs Maya
  7. Innova Gorgon
  8. MVP Trail
  9. Axiom Time-Lapse
  10. Innova Tern

Innova’s Wraith and the Destroyer have been popular discs for decades. They have similar flights at different speeds. The Infinite Discs Emperor matches their flights and has been popular since it was released over half a decade ago. The Infinite Discs Pharaoh and Innova Mamba round out the top five best distance drivers for 2024. Now lets look at 2025.

chart showing the best distance drivers for 2025

The MVP Trail made a jump from 8th to 3rd place. I suspect it will have a place in the top ten for years. With a slight turn and a gentle fade the speed ten mold can be thrown well by people of all skill levels. Another MVP disc, the Wave, also moved up a bit. It went from 13th to 7th. The Wave has more turn (-2) than most of the molds in the top 10. Only the Innova Mamba (-5) and the Maya (-3) have more turn.

Besides the aforementioned Trail and Wave, the rest of the top 10 remain the same molds, only in different order.  It’s a pretty tall order to break in to the top 10. In order to do that a mold would have to unseat some very popular discs.

How popular are the top molds? The sales of the top five discs on the list represent nearly 1 in every three distance drivers sold!

The Destroyer slipped off the podium for the first time in a while. I don’t think it will continue to slip. It has such a desirable flight and is available in a nearly every plastic type. Who knows, maybe if there are enough new molds that hit the disc golf scene, they can brute force the Destroyer off the charts. But, I doubt it.

Brands With the Most Molds in the Top 50

It isn’t a surprise to see Innova and Discraft with the most molds in the top 50. They are two of the oldest companies in disc golf and have more distance drivers than some brands have total molds.

Innova and Discraft may be the biggest in the business, but there are always a few smaller brands that manage to land in the top 50. This year Thought Space Athletics, Clash, and Doomsday Discs had at least one mold on the list. As more new brands roll out their offerings there might be more competition for those spots on the top 50. However, it is tough to unseat the big companies in the sport.

Highest Rated Disc Golf Distance Drivers

Shopping on the Infinite Discs website comes with a major advantage: you can browse authentic player reviews and check disc ratings before making a purchase. As more disc golfers share their experiences, those ratings become a valuable snapshot of how the community feels about each mold. The review system also connects with the Infinite Rewards program, where you can earn points for submitting reviews or making purchases. If you haven’t checked out Infinite Rewards yet, it’s definitely worth exploring (click HERE). Your feedback not only earns rewards but also helps expand our growing collection of disc reviews.

We are going to look at some of the highest rated distance drivers and see which molds are on top. For our ratings system, we weight molds that have more reviews heavier than those with fewer reviews. We’re going to tweak our weighing system soon. With that  in minds, let’s start with the highest rated distance drivers.

Highest Rated Distance Drivers

Innova Destroyer

The Destroyer is a perennial best seller, and it seems logical that it would be among the highest rated. And you can’t discuss the Destroyer without mentioning its little brother, the Wraith, which took second place. Taking third is the Infinite Discs Pharaoh finished as the third highest-rated distance driver overall.

Check out all the Highest Rated Distance Drivers here.

Highest Rated Very Overstable Distance Drivers

Infinite Discs Slab

For this category, you won’t find many molds in the top 50. These are utility discs that have a definite place in many people’s bags, but aren’t going to be sought after by the masses. They are high-speed AND beefy. They are not beginner discs, but it is still interesting to see who is on top in the category.

Taking first place is the speed 11 Infinite Discs Slab. The Slab has a flat top and is perfect for people with big arms. Experience players can utilize the overstability with forehands, headwind shots, or spike hyzers. As a utility disc, it can be used for carving tight corners to avoid obstacles. Check it out and see why people love the Slab.

Taking second place is the Discraft Force. Loved by pros and ams alike, the Force is a speed 12 beefcake that is available in premium and base plastics. Taking third place is one of the beefiest molds in the Dynamic Discs lineup, the Enforcer.

Highest Rated Overstable Distance Drivers

Innova Destroyer disc golf disc

The Innova Destroyer is a perennial best seller and is also the highest rated distance driver. And how can we mention the Destroyer without mentioning its little brother, the Wraith. Since the Wraith has a similar flight to the Destroyer, but a tad slower, it is easy to see why people like it. Taking third is the Infinite Discs Emperor. It is one of the best selling drivers in the Infinite line.

Highest Rated Stable Distance Drivers

Infinite Discs Pharaoh disc golf driver

I glad to see the Infinite Discs Pharaoh taking first place, since some of my longest throws have been with a lighter Pharaoh. It has a good amount of turn to give it a nice S-curve, and a reliable fade. It is a bomber mold!

The second highest rated disc is the Beast. It has a similar flight to the Pharaoh and is a little slower speed. It has been part of Innova since 2002. Taking third place is the glidey Shryke. It is a speed 13 disc that can deliver some long drives.

Check out all the Highest Rated Stable Distance Drivers here.

Highest Rated Understable Distance Drivers

Innova Tern

This category favors intermediate-level players. Since distance drivers have higher speed levels than other categories, many molds are beyond the ability of less experienced players. Discs that are understable help them get a straight flight. These are the highest rated of the understable drivers.

The Innova Tern has been a popular mold for a long time. As mentioned, newer players can appreciate the flippy flight numbers, while more experienced players can use the Tern for huge flex shots. Plus, it has a lot of glide to aid in long shots.

The second highest rated Infinite Discs Maya hasn’t been around as long as the Tern, but it has a huge fan base. The speed 12 mold is a tad more understable than the Tern, but not nearly as flippy as the third place Innova Mamba.

Many people reach for the Mamba as an easy roller disc. It is so understable that even newer players can find a little turn in their throw.

chart showing the number of molds for each disc golf brand in the top 50

innova logo

The top few brands are not a surprise. Innova and Discraft are some of the oldest disc golf brands, and sponsor some top pros. Their size gives them a lot more marketing opportunities. That helps them manage to stay on top despite all of the newer brands that have hit the market the last decade.

Top Rated Drivers

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

infinite discs emperor

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.

Best Disc Golf Approach Discs

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!

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

Blue Innova Gator disc golf disc. 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

Purple Dynamic Discs Lucid Justice disc golf disc

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

A black Innova Aviar with a white stamp

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

Peach colored Latitude 64 Pure with gold stamp

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

blue discmania p2 disc golf disc

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

An Axiom Envy in burst colors. Yellow rim and a black stamp disc golf disc

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.

Although we see a new leader in sales for last year, the Axiom Pixel, it overcame the same challenges of taking the top spot as the Glitch: it did so in its first full year of sales! The MVP/Axiom folks are putting out some great molds that are backed by popular pros.

Here are highlights of the top discs for the year:

1 Axiom Pixel – The Pixel is a straight, fairly glidey putter that, although it feels right at home as an approach disc or throwing putter on shorter holes, can also be found in the hands of disc golfers hoping to sink a long putt.

2 Innova Wraith – A perennial top contender for sales, the Wraith has the popular flight characteristics as the Destroyer, but a little slower speed. Every brand eventually makes a mold with the same flight numbers.

3 Infinite Discs Emperor – Coming up on its sixth birthday, the Emperor has been a hit from the beginning. It is made out of nearly every Infinite plastic, so give you a variety of options. And yes, it has a flight similar to the aforementioned Destroyer.

4 Infinite Discs Alpaca – Another mold that has been a hit from the beginning is the Infinite Alpaca. The beadless putter feels wonderful in your hand and performs even better. Try throwing the Alpaca today and see what the hype is all about.

5 Innova Destroyer – Ahhh, the Innova Destroyer. It has been around longer that most people have been playing disc golf. And it has been a favorite ever since its release. The Destroyer can be found in nearly every plastic, and a variety of weights, to meet the needs of most disc golfers. It has flight numbers that mimic a nice S-curve. Those numbers contribute to a nice S-curve for its flight.

Comparing changes from year to year, we find seven molds that made the current list, that weren’t there the year before. That includes the number one disc on the list, the Axiom Pixel. Here is the list of the seven molds new to the top 50 this year:

Brands in the Top 50

It is always interesting to see how many different brands are represented in the list of the top discs. Some brands you pretty much expect to see on the list. Others are somewhat of a surprise. With the changing disc golf manufacturer landscape, a couple brands still dominate, but smaller brands are starting to carve out their share of the market. Here are the top Brands on the list:

2024 brands in top 50

No one will be surprised to see that Innova leads the pack, with a whopping 18 molds in the top 50. Just as unsurprising, Infinite takes second place. Discraft, with its star-studded lineup of touring pros, comes in fourth with four molds in the top 50.

Most Popular Disc Types

If you sort the top 50 discs according to their disc type, three of the four types listed all have close to the same representation in the top 50. The exception is the midrange disc, with only 5 molds in the top 50.2024 disc types in the top 50

The highest-rated midrange disc in the top 50 is the Discraft Buzzz, which is the sixth most popular mold, and will likely continue to land near the top of the list. It is a staple in many player’s bags, and has been a hot-seller for a long time.

Best Putters 2025

In our Best Putters blog we saw how the Axiom Pixel had dethroned the MVP Glitch for the title of the Best Putter. The straight-flying Pixel is the second mold in the Simon Line of discs, giving it a boost among Lizotte fans. It flies straight with minimal fade. The Pixel’s micro-bead is comfortable in your hand, giving you confidence driving the disc, or putting into the basket.

Although it is an understable disc that is well suited for newer players, it is also available in plastics that make the mold more overstable, and more likely to be utilized by more experienced players.

banner- top 50 midrange discs

This week we continue with our series about the best discs of of 2025, last week we took a look at the best putters. This week we’ll check out the best disc golf midrange discs for 2025.

In disc golf, midrange discs are versatile discs that are frequently used for shorter, controlled shots where accuracy is important. They have a variety of stabilities for nearly any situation you may find yourself. Although they can be used off the tee, they are commonly used for second or third shots, with the goal of finishing near the basket.

We’ll start by taking a look back to last year and the best midrange discs for the year.

Once again, sitting atop the list is the Discraft Buzzz. The difference between charts is the percentage of all midranges that the Buzzz represents. This year the Buzzz’s share of the market jumped from 8.7% to over 17%. That’s a big increase.

Although the second place Hex is way behind the Buzzz, it is also nearly double the sales percentage of the third place Mako3. The Buzzz and the Hex represent nearly one in every four midrange discs sold.

The MVP Detour and the Axiom Balance round out the top five. Those two discs have had been on the market for less than two years. The Buzzz has been around for decades. Often times there is a lot of hype surrounding new releases. If the hype fades, the disc sales drop. Molds like the Buzzz and Mako3 have been around for awhile and have proven their value to disc golfers.

Highest Rated Midrange - Discraft Buzzz

Last year, the Prodigy M4 tied with the Buzzz for the highest-rated midrange disc. This year, the M4 stays at 4.8, while the Buzzz ‘drops’ to 4.79. The M4 is a slightly understable midrange. RPM’s Piwakawaka was just a bit behind the other two with 4.76 out of five stars

Highest Rated Very Overstable Midrange Discs

These beefy discs have massive amounts of fade, and are not for everyone. If you have enough skill and arm speed, you may be in the market for one of these discs and want to check them out. If you get one of these molds, you are looking for something extra beefy, and they all deliver. That may be why the high ratings.

Looking at the highest rated overstable midrange discs we see the Infinite Discs Ra in first place. The Ra is one of the older molds from Infinite. It has enough stability for big arms, but enough controlability for newer players. The Ra has a user-rating of 4.86. Last year’s highest-rated mold, the RPM Kotuku, tied for second with a rating of 4.83. The Kastaplast Jarn tied with the Kotuku, also getting a 4.83 rating.

Highest Rated Understable Midrange Discs

Prodigy M4 - Highest rated understable mid

If you want a midrange that will give you a little (or a lot) of turn in your its flight, you will want an understable mid. They are also good for beginners because they help with a longer flight while beginners develop their form. They are also great for approaches or drives in a tailwind.

The highest rated understable midrange comes from Prodigy. It is their slightly flippy mid, the M4. The M4 has a rating 4.8. The next highest rated disc is the food-themed mold, the Clash Discs Peach. The Peach’s flight numbers are 4,5,-2,1, and its rating is 4.88. The final podium spot goes to the Dynamic Discs Bounty, rated 4.79 out of five stars.

Highest Rated Stable Midrange Discs

Mako 3 Highest Rated straight flying midrange

Stable midrange discs have little or no turn, and little or no fade. The fly straight or whatever line you put them on. Stable mids are valuable work horses that get used a lot. The highest rated of this type of mid is the Innova Mako3, with a user-rating of 4.74. Next up is the Infinite Discs Anubis. It has an average rating of 4.71. The Latitude 64 Compass takes the last spot in the category, with a rating of 4.67
