The Mid Range Disc

     After your drive, depending on your distance to the basket you might reach for a mid range disc. "But wait, don't you want a driver all the time to get the most distance?" That is not entirely always the case. If you always use a driver for every shot you run the chance of over shooting your target. You don't bring a Sledge-hammer to heart surgery. It's all about having the right tool for the task. This is again because every disc has its' own flight patterns.

FLight Patterns

The flight chart below is an example of the patterns that discs will follow. Now you may have noticed that the is a section called fairway drivers, and those are the mid range discs. In the chart there is also a section called flight paths. These flight paths tend to be for right handed throwing. If you are a lefty like myself the patterns are reversed. There is a lot that could be covered but the best way is to try it out yourself.Disc Chart
