by
DGA
SKU: DG-DGA-DL-BLA (REF2651-1)
Description
The DGA D-Line Blast putter is DGA's overstable, beadless approach disc, molded in D-Line plastic. It's built for players who want a reliable approach disc in any wind, and it's at its best on controlled approaches, backhand or forehand. DGA has been part of disc golf since the very beginning, founded by the sport's creator, "Steady" Ed Headrick.
D-Line Plastic
D-Line (DL) is the most affordable of DGA's stock blends. It gives up some durability for a significant increase in grip, and discs season quickly to find their sweet spot of stability much faster than premium plastics. It's similar to the old Pro-D from Discraft.
The Mold
The Blast is built with high torque resistance, low glide, and a confident fade at the end of its flight. Its shallow profile, subtle thumb track, and slightly recessed flight plate give a comfortable feel and a clean release for backhand and forehand throws in any wind.
Stability
The Blast 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 | 4 | Slow putter speed, easy to control without much power. |
| Glide | 2 | Very little glide, so it drops and stops near its 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. |
