What does it mean that the image is labeled "Actual Disc"?
What does it mean that the image is labeled "Actual Disc"?
The "Actual Disc" mark indicates that it is our own image of the exact disc you will receive. There will therefore be NO variation in color shades or stamp.
All discs marked "Actual Disc" are also weighed by us with precision scales. Since manufacturers often have a larger margin of error on the scale, you may experience receiving a product that is marked with a different weight.
We group discs that have identical colour, stamp and weight together, so you may find that there is more than 1 in stock of a disc marked "Actual Disc".
What weight should I choose?
What weight should I choose?
Short answer: Is there a difference of a couple of grams between the different variants? Then it doesn't matter much.
Long answer: In general, a lighter disc is often easier to throw for beginners, but is more affected by wind and can be perceived as less reliable. Furthermore, a lighter disc will "skip" forward less when it hits the ground. Experiment with different weights to discover the differences.
If you buy a disc under 170g, it is considered a "lightweight disc". It can be beneficial to experiment with lighter weights, especially for beginners and players who struggle to get up to speed on the disc.
Prodigy F1 is a medium speed fairway driver that has a very predictable flight. The disc is very overstable, which means that it will always fall to the left towards the end of the flight (right-handed backhand throw). Many people also use this disc with other throwing techniques, such as the tomahawk.
Recommended uses:
Forehand
Spike hyzer
Toss upwind
Flight rating:
Speed: 9
Glide: 4

400 plastic:
400 is a premium plastic that both has excellent grip and is extremely durable. The plastic breaks down slowly over time and the grip holds even in wet weather.

Not as overstable as advertised with most runs that's I've thrown. However the flight is so straight and pure. My F1's fly dead straight with no turn and have a consistent fade at the end. Prodigy's TeeBird equivalent I think. (Nivå på anmelder: Viderekommen)
I use this as my overstable driver ( I play at 5000' in Colorado). I don't have crazy arm speed so this disk flies straight for me with a predictable fade at the end and doesn't immedately hook left out of the hand like some of the other overstable drivers I've used. I find that it's also good for me into the wind. I like Prodigy's F series of drivers and also have the F3 and F7 as well as some Latitude 64 stuff mixed in. 7 speed drivers are the workhorses of my bag and I use them a lot as 7 to 9 speed drivers favor my arm speed. The only gripe I have about this disc is that there are some definite mold lines in the 400G plastic that are noticealble in the hand and could be annoying for some folks. This is the only Prodigy disc I have that I notice that. I have other control drivers, midranges, and putters in different plastics (400, 400 air, 750, duraflex) that are perfectly smooth in the hand. (Nivå på anmelder: Middels)
My experience comes from an F1 that my friend loved, and had loved for a while. This disc was definitely beat in a way that I didn't think it would fly like originally marketed. Even in the wind this thing wants to get out of the air, even on a flex line fought out of a strong headwind. If there was a comparison to be made, it would seem like a shorter firebird in terms of flight. If you're looking for a stiff plastic to have it in, the 750 is perfect with almost no give even in the middle of the flight plate. (Nivå på anmelder: Nybegynner)
Perfect wind fighter for the lady arm! Check out Caley Allen's review :) (Nivå på anmelder: Profesjonell)
A predictably overstable fairway driver, more in the vein of a slower FD3 than an eagle. Consider this to fill your overstable fairway slot if you prefer slower speed than FD3/Firebird. It has a high and flat flight plate reminiscent of the feel of Firebirds. (Nivå på anmelder: Middels)
