Discraft Disc Golf Z Swirl Chris Dickerson 2024 Robot Chicken Buzzz Midrange 5/4/-1/1 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The Discraft Z Swirl Buzzz midrange is disc golf's most popular midrange, molded in Z Swirl plastic. It's built for players of every style who want a midrange they can trust, and it's at its best on flat lasers, smooth hyzers, and controlled turnovers. This listing is the Chris Dickerson Robot Chicken release of the Buzzz. Chris Dickerson is a 2x PDGA Major Champion.
Z Swirl Plastic
Z Swirl is Discraft's fan-favorite swirled version of Z plastic. Each disc has one-of-a-kind swirl patterns, and the blend adds a tackier grip on top of Z's durability. It's a tour-tough plastic with a striking look, and it's a frequent choice for Team Discraft Tour Series releases.
The Mold
The Buzzz is a low-profile modern midrange and the gold standard for straight-to-stable flights. Its neutral stability holds the line you give it, from flat lasers and smooth hyzers to controlled turnovers, and its dependable glide and minimal fade make it incredibly versatile. It's the preferred midrange of 2x PDGA Major Champion Chris Dickerson.
Stability
The Buzzz is neutral-to-stable. Neutral discs fly straight and true with very little turn or fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with only a slight drift left as it slows down. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with a gentle drift right at the finish. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It's an easy choice for beginners and a reliable tool for experienced players.
