Find answers to common questions about discs, technique, and orders. Links within answers go to our detailed guides for deeper info.

Getting Started

I’m new—what discs should I start with?
  • Begin with slower, neutral-to-understable discs—putters and midranges are ideal.
  • See beginner-friendly molds in our Flight Ratings Guide.
Should I buy a starter set or pick discs individually?
  • Starter set: simple, budget-friendly way to cover core shots.
  • Individual picks: tailor discs to your throwing style—see Flight Ratings for guidance.
What weight should beginners throw?
  • Drivers: 165-172 g, Putters/Midranges: 170-175 g. Lighter discs reach speed easier and tend to fly straighter.
Which plastic blend is best for beginners?
  • Baseline plastics = great grip; premium = more durability.
  • Compare them in our Disc Plastic Guide.
How do flight numbers work?
  • Speed • Glide • Turn • Fade describe stability and shot shape. Learn details in the Flight Ratings Guide.

Technique & Improvement

Any quick tips to throw straighter?
  • Keep the disc flat and release smooth—avoid “nose-up”.
  • Neutral midranges reveal form issues; see Flight Ratings for examples.
Backhand vs. forehand—where to start?
  • Start with backhand; add forehand later for flexibility and shaping lines.
How do I pick a putter?
  • Choose a shape that feels natural. Many prefer neutral, firm putters around 170-175 g.
