Disc Golf Shopping learned a vaulable lesson understanding the requirement of (2) or more discs REQUIRING a box for the potential chance of damage. Most disc golf discs are anywhere from 8' to 8.8' in diameter. We utilize boxes with the dimension of 9x9 and a height of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12 and 18. We also use a bubble pouch around each disc so no scraping damage will occur on the foil.
We pride ourselves with these new packing techniques and find our additional cost is well worth a valuable customer getting there product un-damaged. With a (1) disc order if purchased with First Class Mail to provide cheap discs at a value competively we use a #4 bubble mailer, but add a cardboard backing along with a plastic bag/bubble bag. We do NOT use this with 2+ discs as the chances of warping is a possibility and we don't want to allow this as an option.

What is DISC GOLF?
Instead of hitting the ball off the teepad, we use or legs and were the lever throwing the disc. Disc Golf uses a suspended catching device named a Disc Golf Basket. It's metal, about waist high and catches the disc. There is a par 3, 4 and 5, but the difference is you have to think about Disc Golf in feet. Par 3 is under 200 ft.
Disc Golf is one of the fastest growing sports in the United States. The one that might not be obvious, but people just don't think about is MMA being #1. An outdoor sport that's almost always free to play and very inexpensive compared to ball golf it's taking over as one of the go-to sports for ages ranging from 14-60.
With the increase in popularity for Disc Golf we have seen many suppliers of disc golf discs. They all have different ratings giving customers ideas of how the discs fly. Most brands use 4 main criteria when trying to understand which disc to utilize. Speed - (Does not mean farther)Glide - (Flying thru the air)Turn - (While disc is going fast)Fade - (When disc slows down) Speed is the rate at which a disc can travel through the air. Speed 14 Drivers are the fastest, having the PDGA maximum legal wing width. Faster discs cut into the wind with less effort and are best when throwing up wind. Slower discs take more power to throw upwind, but they’re easier to throw more accurately and may actually go farther downwind. High speed discs are not recommended for beginners as they require more power to fly properly. Glide describes the discs ability to maintain loft during flight. Discs with more glide are best for new players, and for producing maximum distance. Beginners wanting farther drives should choose discs with more glide. Discs with less glide are more accurate in high wind situations. Turn (High Speed) is the tendency of a disc to turn over or bank to the right (for RHBH throws) during the initial part of the flight. A disc with a +1 rating is most resistant to turning over, while a -5 rating will turn the most. Discs rated -3 to -5 make good roller discs. Discs with less turn are more accurate in the wind. Discs with more turn are easier to throw for beginners. Fade (Low Speed) is the discs tendency to hook left (for RHBH throws) at the end of the flight. Fade is rated from 0 to 5. A disc rated 0 will finish straightest, while a disc rated 5 will hook hard at the end of the flight. High fade discs are usually used for Spike and Skip shots. We strongly recommend starting with a Putt & Approach, Mid-Range & Fairway Driver discs to start off playing Disc Golf. The popular brands currently are Innova, Dynamic Discs, Westside Discs, Latitude 64, Discraft & MVP. You can check our page Disc Types to understand in greater detail how these for disc categories react in the field. Ensure you are throwing to your highest potential by educating yourself in great detail before randomly purchasing a "high speed disc."
