Discraft Buzzz
Why it’s an all-timer: The Buzzz is the midrange benchmark—point, shoot, and trust. It holds lines with power, stays neutral in calm conditions, and responds to touch on woods lines.
- Flight numbers: 5 / 4 / −1 / 1
- Shines for: Everyone who wants a one-mold midrange solution (hyzer, flat, anhyzer).
- Feel: Beadless, comfortable rim; available in every Discraft plastic from base to premium.
- Bag tip: Pair it with a Buzzz OS or a Comet/meteor-type for a perfect midrange trio.
Innova Destroyer
Why it’s an all-timer: The distance driver that set the template: high speed, workable turn, strong fade. Forehand or backhand, it scales with skill.

Innova Wraith
Why it’s an all-timer: A touch slower and more workable than a Destroyer with easy glide. Great “first fast driver” for players growing into speed 11–12.

Discraft Zone
Why it’s an all-timer: Torque-resistant, headwind-proof approach disc that every player leans on when they have to stick the landing. FH, BH, or patent-pending, it just obeys.

Innova Firebird
Why it’s an all-timer: Forehand training wheels that never leave your bag. Trusty fade, wind-fighting stability, and skip-shot magic.

Axiom Envy
Why it’s an all-timer: The modern throwing putter. Holds power, carves angles, and putts great—plus it’s the mold behind the “Holy Shot.”
- Flight numbers: 3 / 3 / 0 / 2
- Shines for: Driving putter lines, straight lasers, and forehand approaches.
- Feel: Low-profile with GYRO overmold; glides without drifting.
- Bag tip: Neutron for all-around use; soft/eco blends for extra stick on greens.

- Shines for: Players who like a firmer, beaded putter that can also handle tee shots.
- Feel: Traditional depth with tons of blends (S, SS, SSS, RFF, Eraser, Evolution).
- Bag tip: Match plastic to climate—softer in the cold, firmer in the heat.
Infinite Discs Pharaoh
Why it’s an all-timer: Big-distance driver with manageable fade. For many players, it’s easier to fully use than the beefiest 12-speeds—huge value if you want max D without max effort.
- Typical flight: 13 / 6 / −1 to −2 / 2 (varies by run)
- Shines for: Long hyzerflips, tailwind bombs, and long turnovers that still pan back.
- Feel: Wide-rim driver with surprising control for its speed class.
- Bag tip: Grab two runs: one straighter (I-Blend/softer) and one beefier (S-Blend/Champ-like).
How To Build Around These Classics
- Speed ladder: Pair a Wraith with a Destroyer (or Pharaoh) to cover neutral-to-beefy distance slots.
- Midrange core: Buzzz + Mako3 gives you straight-to-slight-turn coverage. Add a Zone for OS approaches.
- Fairway control: TeeBird for stock lines; Firebird for wind, skips, and forehands.
- Putters: Envy for throwing, Wizard for putting—or flip that if you like a beaded thrower.
Final Thoughts
These molds earned “all-time” status by doing the simple stuff right—clean releases, predictable finishes, and broad plastic/run options so you can tune the feel and stability. Start with one or two from this list, learn them on a field, then build the rest of your bag around what they don’t do. That’s how great bags—and great rounds—come together.
