Innova
SKU: DG-INV-PGDX-LYN (REF2668-20)
Description
The Innova Proto Glow DX Lynx fairway driver is a long-gliding fairway driver (the new name for the IT), molded in Proto Glow DX plastic. It's built for newer players and anyone who wants easy distance and turnovers, and it's at its best on tight woods, standstills, and rollers. If you're shopping for a dependable Lynx for your bag, this Proto Glow DX run is a great place to start.
Proto Glow DX Plastic
DX is Innova's value plastic, offered in the widest selection of models and weights. It provides excellent grip in a variety of weather, and it wears in with use, gradually taking on new flight characteristics. Many top pros carry several DX discs of their favorite models for different flight patterns. Proto Glow is Innova's upgraded glow: it glows significantly brighter and lasts much longer than older Innova glow plastics, holding visible illumination for 20 minutes or more.
The Mold
The Lynx is the new name for the IT: the same long-gliding fairway driver, just easier to find. With gentle turn and serious glide, it holds your release line and keeps carrying when other fairway drivers might fade out. It's great for tight woods, standstills, low ceilings, and even rollers right out of the box.
Stability
The Lynx is understable. Understable discs turn away from your throwing arm at speed, making turnovers and hyzer-flips easier and helping lower-power players fly straight. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it tends to drift right during the fastest part of its flight, then shows a gentle fade back to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, drifting left early and fading right at the end. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It suits beginners who need help getting straight flights as well as advanced players who want to shape turnovers.
Flight Numbers

| Fade | 1 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |
