While all of the disc golf manufacturers have suffered from product shortages in 2021, the original Prodigy line has suffered more than just about any other brand in terms of available products right now. It is almost impossible for the average disc golfer to find any substantial selection of Prodigy Discs at any major online disc golf retailer. For this reason, we have primarily just included the products that are available in our best Prodigy Discs of 2022 review. If you are shopping for disc golf discs, it really doesn’t matter how good the discs are if you cannot actually by them.
Here is a summary table showing the Best Prodigy Discs we included in the article. For your convenience, we have further divided them according to the disc types of the sport.

REVIEW
Designed to be an overstable driver for more experienced disc golfers, Prodigy’s D Model OS has the speed and glide to get you over 400 feet with much ease.
When you throw it flat using your left-hand backhand, you get yourself a pretty straight flyer that does a little bit of turn before fighting right back into the wind.
When you throw it on a bit of an anhyzer angle, the headwind would make it hold that exact angle for quite a long time just before flattening out. On a hyzer, it glides and penetrates further before knifing down.
It’s not much, but the D Model OS is rather forgiving since it still flies well with some extra glide even when you fall down while it.
You might not want it to be your main driver because of how weird it feels due to its weird rim shape, but it’s a good overstable disc that won’t flip at all.
PROS
- Could cover quite the distance
- Is rather reliable and consistent
- Is a good compliment for headwinds
- Is a bit forgiving
CONS
- Might feel weird
- Is not good for beginners

REVIEW
A disc with a gentle and dependable fade at the end and flies dead straight, you should have no doubts about putting Prodigy Discs’ D Model S in your bag! Once you throw it on a hyzer line, this disc will straighten out and cover some ground before it begins to fade.
D Model S is a very consistent overstable driver, plus its prime plastic making it nice and grippy, especially in the snow. As a workhorse distance driver, it is consistent and controllable to throw it for a maximum distance.
This disc flies like a slightly beat-in destroyer and even has a low price. You can throw this disc hard and can cover about 400 feet.
PROS
- Is great for intermediate to advanced throwers
- IS great for forehand drives
CONS
- Is not beginner friendly

REVIEW
As a high-speed glidey disc, Prodigy’s D1 is an excellent distance driver for power throwers who need a good forehand throw during windy days into doglegs.
The disc has some good glides that could easily cover over 430 feet for you, but it does not turn at all. It’s consistent overstability lets the D1 fight the wind fairly well. It does not perform as expected for really strong headwinds, though.
Out of the box, this distance driver may feel so overstable that you can’t work well with it. However, it beats in quite quickly and becomes a dead-straight flyer.
There might be issues on the consistency of its manufacturing, but it does have a fairly consistent slow fade at the end. With its rather large dome, it’s good for flex shots and hyzer flips to get that extra distance on its flight.
It’s also not a good combination for newer players of the sport, though.
PROS
- Could cover great distances with its fast speed and long glide
- Beats in quickly
- Has a consistent end fade
- Is an excellent disc for power throwers
CONS
- Has a rather inconsistent manufacturing process
- Is not good for newer or weak-armed players
- Could be a chore to work with out of the box
- Is not a good complement for really strong headwinds

REVIEW
Prodigy’s F Model S is a wide-rimmed stable fairway drive that could give you the pinpoint accuracy and the terrific control that your plays direly need.
With its rather domey feature, this control driver smoothly goes far with less effort before fading real hard. With its offered control, you can reach over 400 feet with a smash throw. You might also want to flip it up a bit and flex out with some flat release.
When beaten in, it becomes a straight flyer and does a bit of a turn when released on a hyzer.
Be mindful of the plastic you’ll get it with, though, because it might turn out too hard and inflexible for your plays. Also, the F Model S is more of a circumstantial utility driver rather than an everytime go-to driver.
PROS
- Has a lot of glide to cover great distances
- Is fairly controllable
- Breaks in nicely and quickly
CONS
- Plastic may be too hard and/or inflexible to play with
- May not be your go-to fairway driver

REVIEW
As an overstable control driver, the F Model OS is not a disc that newer players should mess around with.
With its 2 turn rating, it has a fairly slow high-speed stability. Throw it flat and it would start turning right off the bat then do a fade and fight real hard at the end.
When thrown on a hyzer, the F Model OS would fly up to flat before that little speed stability would come right on back and give you something more of a distance hyzer.
On an anhyzer, on the other hand, it would not roll because of that low speed stability. It would, instead, have a rather wide flight and simply finish even though it might seem to want to roll.
This fairway driver has quite the unique flight so it might take a while to fully utilize this disc. It might also not be stable enough as marketed, so take note.
PROS
- Has a unique flight pattern
- Has a fairly predictable flight pattern
CONS
- Is not friendly for newer players
- May really take time to get used to
- May not be as stable as marketed

REVIEW
Prodigy Discs’ F Model US is a great overstable disc for forehands and a powerful backhand throw. This disc has a definite end fade covering a max distance of around 300 feet.
With a flat and sharp rim on this disc, it flies straight out of your hand and starts fading out pretty fast. Throwing it on a hyzer flip will result in a flat that fades out quickly.
This disc has a dependable flight that a right-hand backhand throw will make this disc’s flight path go slightly to the right.
F Model US has pretty decent controllability to the point that hyzer lines are easy for this disc. It can hold the line all day while putting this disc on anhyzer line is easy and will not hold until the end.
PROS
- Basegrip holds up fairly well
- Has a nice feel with the rim
CONS
- Is not understable
- Is not great for beginners

REVIEW
Designed by the Prodigy Disc to be a consistent overstable midranger, the M Model OS flies consistently under any wind condition.
Given how controllable this disc is, you can rely on its consistent drives without fail. It’s an excellent disc for those approach shots that you just want to do a slow fade and stick the landing. Aside from that, you will not have a bad skip or rollaway shot with the M Model OS.
Depending on its plastic, this midranger might not be as comfortable for forehand as it is for backhand. It’s a fairly good disc for mastering the forms of your shots, though, even if it’s not that much friendly for beginners.
It would be helpful to note how touchy this disc could be, though. When given too much power but having not enough hyzer, this midranger would flip over and eventually crash to the right.
PROS
- Has a fairly consistent flight under any wind condition
- Is very controllable
- Is a good compliment for backhand throws
- Is a good disc for mastering your forms
CONS
- Can be too touchy for control and comfort
- Does not feel as good to throw forehand as it is for backhand

REVIEW
A mid-range disc that can fly straight consistently and has a small amount of turn and almost no fade, Prodigy Discs’ M Model US will be the disc you would want to have on the field. This disc has a nice smooth rim that is easy for you to have a clean release when throwing it.
From a nice grip, it will turn over once you throw it with a lot of power. This disc has almost zero fades even when throwing short shots and will hardly push left from a right-hand backhand throw. M Model US can finish forward and straight right out of the box, with a surprising torque resistance, so you don’t have to feel trouble throwing it to 300 feet and worrying about any turnovers.
Throwing this disc flat with a lot of power will result in an anhyzer finish, be it a gentle or an aggressive anhyzer. With the disc’s feeling of comfort when holding it, you will find yourself easily controlling the disc.
PROS
- Has an exceptional price-quality ratio
- Is great for beginners
CONS
- Will get scratched upon ground impact if thrown too hard

REVIEW
As a non-beaded mid-range that is fairly deep and flat, you can enjoy holding Prodigy Discs’s M1 during the game, especially for backhand and forehand grips. This disc flies dead straight and has a lot of glides. Plus, this disc has a nice gradual fade at the end of the flight, which will make you want to use this disc in a game.
M1 reliably finishes left with right-hand backhand throws, and you can shape it fairly and easily with moderate to fast arm speed. Throwing it on a hyzer flip, you can stretch this disc out around 300 to 315 feet if you need it to.
PROS
- Is great for open shots
- Feels good in the hand
CONS
- Is not reliable in any headwind
- Is not overstable as indicated and needs a bunch of angle

REVIEW
With its high glide and low speed, the P Model S is a reliable stable putter that you can have fairly complete control over.
It has a shallow micro beaded rim and a flat top that says it would stay on any line you would put it on. If you’re comfortable with those features, it could turn you into a confident disc golfer that would consistently sink those putt and approach shots.
Throw it on a hyzer and the P Model S would just flip up and stay like that for the rest of its flight. Put more power in its throw and you have yourself a pretty dead-straight flyer that would turn right then virtually sit down before fading right back into the line.
As a good throwing putter, it’s an excellent point-and-shoot stable putter for power throwers. You can smash this disc to reach over 400 feet and it would not turn over and would still hold its anhyzer line for as long as it’s on the right angle.
You might want it to be more stable so that you won’t lose it to the right when you throw it too hard, though.
PROS
- Is very predictable and controllable with its low speed and high glide rating
- Can be used to make consistent putt and approach shots
- Is an excellent point-and-shoot stable putter
- Will hold the line it’s thrown into quite well
CONS
- May be quite tricky when thrown too hard

REVIEW
P Model Us is the go-to putter when you need a neutral approach, and you want to use it for soft hyzer, and anhyzers, or gentle straight shots. As a beefy disc, its shallow profile lets it fight the wind better than ever.
When you throw it flat into a headwind with good power, this disc will not turn over. It flies dead straight for spin putting within the circle that if you turbo put, it will have a good “S” curve at around 25 feet.
P Model US feels fairly comfortable with the base grip plastic, which is easy to power grip, and the rim is not too deep.
PROS
- Is very beginner friendly
- Will fly in whatever angle you want
CONS
- Is not great for flip putting
- Does not have tons of glide
