FREE DISC COMPARISON TOOL

Compare disc golf discs & find similar discs

Choose a disc you know to find alternatives, or compare up to three discs side by side with an interactive Flight Chart. Start with the shot you want: a familiar replacement, less finish, or a different role in your bag.

How we choose similar discs

Same disc category, speed within one point, and turn and fade each within one point. Turn and fade differences count most, followed by speed and glide. We show up to three currently listed candidates and exclude your starting disc.

These are manufacturer ratings, not a shared test across brands. Plastic, weight, wear, rim feel and your throw can change which disc works for you. The tool cannot match an exact worn disc or guarantee the same flight.

2 of 2 flight lines shown.

For this throw, fade bends left late in the flight.

Illustrative flight paths based on published ratings (or your numbers for custom discs). Assumes a flat release; not measured trajectories or a prediction of your distance. Power, angle, wind, plastic, weight and wear change actual flight. Ratings also vary between brands.

How these curves are drawn

Turn controls the early bend; fade adds a separate bend near the end. Speed and glide set a relative line length for display only. Switching hand or throw type mirrors the diagram. Identical ratings produce identical curves, even when the actual discs fly differently. The chart does not model power, wind, release angle or plastic.

WHAT CHANGES YOUR CHOICE

Look beyond the four numbers.

  • All selected references list speed 5. Compare the intended line, version and grip rather than expecting identical flights.
  • Hex lists the most negative turn (-1); Mako3 lists 0. Use that as a starting point for a more turning line, not a prediction of your throw.
  • Mako3 lists the least fade (0); Hex lists the most (1). Decide whether less or more finishing movement helps your shot.
Hex vs Mako3: our choice

Start with Mako3 for a first low-fade midrange; choose Hex when a little finishing fade is useful.

Hex

The Axiom Hex is a speed-5 midrange for everyday fairway shots, with a little turn and a gentle finish. It makes sense as the disc you reach for when you want one familiar midrange line.

Choose something else if…

For a stronger fading finish, compare the Roc3. For less rated fade, compare the Mako3.

Mako3

The Innova Mako3 is a neutral, speed-5 midrange built around very little finishing fade. It is our starting pick for learning release angles with one main throwing disc.

Choose something else if…

Choose the Roc3 instead when a stronger finishing fade is the shot you are missing. Zero rated fade does not correct an off-line release.

How to choose between similar discs

  1. Name the shot. Replacing a lost midrange and adding a strong-fade approach disc are different decisions. Compare candidates for the same job first.
  2. Read turn and fade separately. Turn describes the higher-speed part of the flight; fade describes the finish. Adding the two numbers together hides the difference between a turning line and a narrow, low-fade line. Our flight-number guide explains the four ratings.
  3. Check the actual version. Open each disc record for its rating scope and plastic information. Then check the shop listing's plastic, marked weight and condition. The mold name alone does not identify your next disc.

Three comparisons to start with

These guides turn a pair of specifications into a buying decision. Each explains the choice and when carrying both discs could make sense.

Replacing a disc or filling a gap?

For a replacement, use the similar-disc finder to make a shortlist, then compare the closest candidates with your familiar disc. A numerical match gives you something to investigate; grip, plastic and wear can still make another copy feel or fly differently.

For a new shot, look for the difference you actually want. A Proxy and an Envy are both speed-3 throwing putters, but their reference fade ratings are 0.5 and 2. That difference is useful when deciding how much finish you want. Read Proxy vs Envy before choosing by speed alone.

If you already carry several similar discs, build your bag and check possible overlap. Assign the shots you use them for. A matching rating does not make a disc redundant if your actual copies earn different roles. If you are starting from scratch, use our simple beginner bag as a starting point.

What the comparison can tell you

The tool combines Try Discs manufacturer ratings with the references linked in our disc records. Similar candidates share a category, are within one speed point, and differ by no more than one point each in turn and fade. Glide helps order the candidates. The finder shows up to three matches from the supported catalog.

Flight numbers are manufacturer ratings rather than standardized measurements across brands. The tool explains numerical differences and illustrates flight shapes; it does not predict distance or simulate your throw. Missing specifications remain marked as not recorded. Our editorial approach explains how facts and recommendations are separated.
