Axiom Disc Golf Neutron Fireball Distance Driver 9/3.5/0/3.5 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The Axiom Neutron Fireball distance driver is Axiom's overstable 9-speed utility driver, molded in Neutron plastic. It's built for forehand throwers and anyone who needs a disc that has to fade, and it's at its best on power forehands, wind-fighting backhands, and hard fades. If you're shopping for a dependable Fireball for your bag, this Neutron run is a great place to start.
Neutron Plastic
Neutron is the most popular plastic in the MVP and Axiom lineup and their flagship blend. It's opaque with a premium look and feel, and it comes in the widest selection of bright colors, which makes your Fireball easy to find in any terrain. Neutron shares the great durability of Proton, so it holds its flight for a long time instead of wearing in quickly. Paired with Axiom's colorful GYRO rims, it's as good looking as it is dependable. The Fireball is also available in Fission, Particle Eclipse, Plasma and Proton.
The Mold
The Fireball is a 21.1 cm distance driver with an 18.5 mm rim. It is a staple in GYRO bags for a reason. Whether you're looking for power forehands, wind-fighting backhands, or a disc that simply has to fade, it delivers with dependable torque resistance and a strong finish.
Stability
The Fireball 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 suited to intermediate and advanced players, and it's a valuable utility disc for anyone who plays in wind.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 9 | Distance-driver speed that needs good arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 3.5 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 3.5 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |
