Choose it for

Maximum distance for strong arms. Westside says it is the farthest-flying disc in its line, meant to give average players a long flight, and a long driver and roller for professionals.

Choose something else if…

You are still building arm speed. A speed-14 driver thrown below its speed will mostly fade.

What the King flight numbers mean

Turn -1.5 with fade 3 gives an S-curve on a hard throw and a firm finish. At speed 14 it needs a strong arm to fly as rated.
