DESCRIPTION:
Prodigy Disc PA-5 is a relatively new mold, released in late 2023, but it's already making waves in the disc golf community. Here's a breakdown of its key features:
Silky Smooth Under stability: The PA-5 is an under stable putt and approach disc, meaning it will naturally want to turn right (for right-handed throwers) during its flight. This makes it ideal for:
Hyzer flips: Throwing the disc on a hyzer angle (released at an angle with the left rim tilted upwards) and letting it flip up to flat or even anihyzer (rightward turn) during the flight.
Big turnovers: Utilizing the disc's natural turn for controlled turnovers around obstacles or for curving approaches.
Slow turnover lines: For finesse shots that gently turn right and fade back left at the end.
Controllable Flight:
Despite its under stability, the PA-5 has a predictable and controllable flight path. This is due to its:
Shallow profile: Makes it comfortable to grip and release for a variety of throwing styles.
Rounded rim: Provides a smooth release and helps prevent nosediving.
Moderate speed (4.0): Makes it manageable for players of all arm speeds.
Versatility:
While primarily designed for putting and approach, the PA-5's under stability can be utilized for creative shots like:
Roller shots: Rolling the disc along the ground for tricky upshots or surprise maneuvers.
Tomahawk throws: Throwing the disc sideways for tight spaces or obstacles.
Overhead shots: Throwing the disc from a high angle for delicate landings.
