The wave
Wave and Tesla are the best!
Loving the grace as #1. Love mine so much
I love the photon at 11 speed! Def feel like I learned the control. Mvp's 11s are top notch.
100% agree with the number one pick! So many great discs in that general category!
Destroyer has so many variations, most advanced amateurs are going to really like this. I have a gstar one that is one of the flippyest discs in my bag, and a 159 Blizzard Ice one that pushes far and fades hard... real hard.
I love my Discreet Hades and it definitely helped with my distance!
For anyone who has under 300ft, the Maya is my go-to driver. Thrown flat I get good s-lines, with some anny it rides a turnover line a long way, and with light hyzer it flips up and runs straight. And I just added a used g-star destroyer that I throw well into a head wind.
Yup! My first ACE was 327 ft skip shot with one! It bounces! Lol
also the strive is my fav driver RN. but i obviously bag a destroyer too!
The Wave for sure!!! Mayhem, as well
My top ones people should try would be as follows.
Wraith
X3
Wave
H3 V2
DD1 is pretty sick too.
Enigma is a good disc as well. Honestly, any of these are great to throw.
I've thrown the Drive, Grace, Strive, Wraith, Enigma, and Destroyer. For me, without a doubt the best driver for maximum distance has been the Strive! I am getting more shots over 400' now than ever before because of this disc! So much glide, just enough turn, and a reliable fade at the end with a slight bit of skip forward. This thing bombs!
Wraith in the blizzard champion plastic. The Vanish, Wave, Boss in the blizzard champion plastic, Scorch and Hades. All light weight (under 160 grams).
As an Am player, MVP 11 Speed discs Wave (or Jet) and Photon are my go to, especially for low ceiling lines.
Are they max distance discs? Not sure, it might be the new 7 speed Brave
Just want to add to the destroyer spot, the echo-star destroyer (specifically, the Jessica Weese destroyer) is an absolute bomber. It is flippy, but has the fade you'd expect from a destroyer, and from someone who always threw a grace as my main distance driver, this thing goes like 50-75ft further.
They don’t make echostar destroyers anymore and to buy one new is about $45. A cheaper but equally as good replacement is a G-star destroyer or Pro-destroyer.
@@GPGMan703 that's why I noted the Jessica Weese destroyer, as of right now, you can still get them from some online stores for normal price.
@@GPGMan703 they still have some Jessica Weese eco star destroyers on some online stores for normal price. I'm sure they won't last much longer though.
good old etowah! i miss that course
If you are a beginner or lower arm speed player, you need these discs:
1.) Latitude 64 Diamond
2.) Innova G-star Mamba
3.) Innova Tern
4.) Discraft Avenger SS
5.) Prodigy D3 in Air spectrum plastic
Any of these discs will increase your distance if you throw in that 250-325 ft range. I’d recommend sticking to 165 gram discs or less. My Star tern for example is 147 grams, but goes crazy far compared to other discs in my bag.
My dad is 66, his buddy we often play with is 65. The lat64 diamonds are ESSENTIAL for them. 8 6 -3 1, weigh around 155-157 (from what I've seen) I've bought all sorts of discs for them and nothing so far has been able to replace the diamond for them. So I absolutely agree with you. If you have a little more power than 66 year Olds, the innova mamba is DEFINITELY a good choice as well. I have four of them, I've kind of grown past them, can use more overstable stuff now, but the 11 6 -5 1 mamba indeed has an incredible amount of turn which will absolutely help newer players and lower arm speeds. You sir know what you're talking about, lat64 diamond and innova mamba are FANTASTIC beginner discs.
I want to add the Underworld (not a distance driver, but it can be for slower arms) and Maya to this list. As my form and power improves I can't throw the Underworld flat anymore, but it is a hyzer flip laser beam for me now and a good backhand roller. The Maya is my go-to driver, able to throw turnovers, s-lines, and hyzer flips with it. The Avenger SS is good too.
Innova Tern is basically a Destroyer for AMs
The Hades and the Wave are two great drivers also
I gotta try the wild honey. The flight looks great.
Streamline Trace. Please show this disc some love. Photon Plastic gets really flippy
Just ordered a fission Wave which my noodle arm is excited for
Should definitely try out the new Gateway Ether and Realm, maybe even the GOne. I was super surprised at the new drivers Gateway has come up with.
My best comparisons would be that the Realm is like a Destroyer, Ether is like a Wraith, and GOne gets a little more flippy like a Wild Honey. Those comparisons probably aren’t spot on, but I’d love to hear your thoughts!
My picks would Valkyries or Sidewinders for amateurs and Raiders or Destroyers for more advanced arms. All inexpensive discs, which is crucial to many people. Literally 2 for the price of 1 Clash or Royal Grand.
Hades. Stay away from the more stable plastics.
Mine was my first 11/12 speed. First disc over 300. Now it's a very fast flippy roller. Still in my bag!
If you have a slower arm grab an echostar destroyer I usually throw Calvin’s but if I’m on an open hole it just BOMBS
LSD Curl is that 11 5 -1 2, and it is money. I have it in 3 of their plastics. Love the Lat64 Bolt too.
Bolt is underrated!!!❤
the fact the scorch isn't on this list is criminal/ it glides for days when you're talking about the 11 speeds 11 6 -2 2
Yea I would have slotted the scorch over the honey.
@@hiddenleaf414 granted i haven't tried the honey but the scorch is the first back hand disc i was like wait .. what LOL
Same bro. I love my Scorch!
Yes, the First Runs are absolutely bombers!
My stock ESP Scorch is one of my most thrown discs. Not as impressed by the Z Scorch I picked up a while back though
I threw an enigma for a few months before losing it. I enjoyed throwing it, but not enough to replace it. Other than the Mamba, I throw all of my distance drivers forehand. For me, I get my best results with the Bolt and the Trespass. Not that I believe that either of them should be in this top 5, in regard to that I think it is a fair list.
Wave over Wild Homey, and Maya should be there. Same with an Emperor over the Destroyer. Personally, I think a DD or Term should be in the conversation seeing as the Grym is OOP.
S line DD from Discmania bombs! It’s a cheat code for easy distance.
Do you guys like the Starfire, Orc, the Max, the T-Rex or the monster from Inova? I also like throwing my boatman my world and my giant in the old tournament plastic from Westside discs..
The neo enigma flies close to a s-line DD3
Does the discraft Zeus fall under the destroyer category?
Scotch and Wave and if you have a little bit more in the arm Colossus is a bomber.
Disc mania latt64 west side discs is all anyone needs to know. Maybe a few mvp
Innova you might as well throw a stick or stone. Get that glide and make that shape and shot
The new color glow DD bombs
Boatman from Westside disc is an absolute sleeper of a disc that a lot of players from all skill levels can take advantage of
New Sai Ananda stamp one being released.
One of my favorite discs. Especially to forehand. Just got a sick Halloween VIP Ice Chameleon one. It's a beauty.
The Innova 14 speed, the Colossus.
Infinite Maya and Pharoah are musts for distance drivers.
Growler. It bombs!
First of all...DD.. second of all...DD1... last thing....The s line DD3, and paradigm are both better than the Enigma.
Hergo my list-
1. Shryke
2. Wraith
3. Zeus
4. Grace
5. Destroyer
Wave is a little big for an 11. Not a huge fan.
Been using a Shryke the last few weeks and it's awesome! I love the feel of it and it takes hardly much movement to throw it.
Fission Wave
Gimme my Innova Tern and my Grace and I’m set. Also, if you go a little slower, the Escape bombs.
Photon!
I need something thats not to flippy or to stable my main right now is a zenith and i throw it like 400 every time and im 13
12
The wave som much the wave
Hmm, don't forget the Queen from
Westside!
Haven’t even watched but I already know y’all sleeping on the westside sword. Literally the perfect distance driver
Yup. Pretty awesome disc.
Scorch slept on hard. Find a uv Barstamp. 💰
Streamline Trace should have been in the 11 speed group at #1.
Infinite Pharoah
No Shryke on list? Come on Swankes!
Was this list ghost-written by Birdogie?
hopping in to say that if you play any division lower than ma1 you probably shouldn’t be bagging any distance drivers
The wave
