Midrange
Innova Mako3 flight numbers
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 it for
A first midrange. General fairway throws and one-disc rounds. Choose the Mako3 when learning one versatile throwing disc matters more than filling several specialized slots.
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.
What the Mako3 flight numbers mean
Innova gives it 0 turn and 0 fade. That makes it a useful starting point for straight shots, but you still have to aim and release it on the right angle.

Before you buy
A useful reason to try this model is to establish one familiar midrange for practice. If you already own a midrange that serves that purpose, use it before buying another disc simply because these numbers look appealing.

Guides for choosing the Mako3
Practice idea
Choose a safe open target line and repeat a comfortable throw. Note the starting direction as well as the finish. If the starting direction changes each time, more repetitions may be more informative than another purchase.
