Lightning #3 Hookshot

Purple Hookshot No ratings yet.

The third Hookshot in the Lightning lineup is recommended for shots from 250 to 300.’ The overstableness of the #3 Hookshot allows the disc to remain stable even when facing unexpected wind gusts. This disc is more of a mid-range than it is a driver, and floats in water, so long as it weighs less than 170 grams.

Discraft Stratus

White Stratus with Blue markings No ratings yet.

The Discraft Stratus is designed to be for beginners and is one of the best. The understabiltity of this mid-range means this disc will fly straight for players learning the various throwing techniques. For players with a little more umph in their throw, this baby makes a good anhyzer disc that leans more to the anhyzer side.

The Stratus comes in Discraft’s mid grade Elite-X plastic. This is a super plastic that will withstand wear and tear much longer than Pro-D.

Discraft Zone

Blue Zone with Whie Markings No ratings yet.

Welcome to the Zone. This is a  slim disc with a thick rim that gives the thrower something to hold onto. This is a very overstable putter that can handle headwinds, giving some strategic fades, forehand shots, flick putts, and slamming into chains at just the right angle. Many players have this disc in their arsenal that gets them out of situations where a flick or forehand putt is the only option. Because it so overstable it can handle the torque from a flick!

The Zone is available in both the inexpensive Pro-D and premium ESP plastics.

Lightning MX-1

Green MX 1 No ratings yet.

Lightning’s fastest distance driver. The MX1 is a sleek disc with a thin rim depth. This disc’s rim is thicker than any other Lightning disc at 2.1 cm. The flight path of the MX-1 is slightly overstable and it comes with a very significant high speed turn and substantial end flight fade. This disc turns over fairly easily, though it’s not good for forehand shots, but it does make a nice roller. This is a nice driver for intermediate disc golfers.

The MX-1 is no longer available.

Lightning Rubber Putter

Yellow Rubber Putter No ratings yet.

This stable straight flying putter has a great feel that is sure to aid in making putts. The Rubber putter has a very thin, but deep rim, and is taller than the average disc at 2.2cm in height. The Rubber putter isn’t really made of rubber, but instead is a grippy plastic that feels rubbery.

This disc is longer available.

Innova Gator

White Gator No ratings yet.

The Gator is a bulky overstable mid-range disc, ideal for those shots you want to have stay put right next to the basket. The Gator has very little glide (Innova rating of 2) and will go only as far as you throw it. It makes a decent putter on very windy days.

The Gator is available in an inexpensive DX plastic blend, which provides a super grippy, accurate release that sticks to the ground without skipping or rolling much. It is also available in premium Star plastic.
