Prodigy Disc
SKU: DG-PDG-500-X2 (REF1142-8)
Description
The Prodigy 500 X2 distance driver is a long-flying overstable distance driver, molded in 500 plastic. It's built for players who need control in the wind and on forehands, and it's at its best on windy distance and long hyzers. If you're shopping for a dependable X2 for your bag, this 500 run is a great place to start.
500 Plastic
500 is a premium blend with a less gummy feel than 400, giving an extremely confident grip and a stiffer flight plate that balances flex and firmness. Its uniquely pearlescent finish adds another visual element, and it's a great choice for heavy woods.
The Mold
The X2 is a consistent, long-flying, overstable distance driver for any skill level. It's a great fit for windy conditions or long right-to-left hyzers (RHBH), a go-to for pros who want a reliable finish, and an accurate hyzer driver for lower arm speeds.
Stability
The X2 is overstable. Overstable discs resist turning over and fade hard at the end, which makes them predictable in wind and at high power. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it resists turning over and finishes with a strong, dependable fade to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with that hard fade finishing to the right. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It's best for intermediate to advanced players with good arm speed.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 13 | Very high speed that needs strong arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 4 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 4 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |
