Mint Discs
SKU: DG-E-GOAT (REF1893-8)
Description
The Mint Discs Eternal Goat distance driver is Mint's fast, overstable bomber, molded in Eternal plastic. It's built for big arms and power forehands, and it's at its best on headwind distance and power forehands. Mint Discs is a Texas disc golf brand you'll find at events and minis around the state.
Eternal Plastic
Eternal is tough and durable, so you can trust it to take a beating on the course without worrying about what that tree just did to your disc. It has a clear "candy" look that stands out in the fairway, and it wears in slowly for reliable flights every throw.
The Mold
The Goat is a fast, overstable driver for all your distance driver needs. It's overstable enough to rip into the toughest headwinds but not so overstable that you can't get distance out of it, with stability for big arms and power forehands.
Stability
The Goat 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 a valuable disc for players who need control in the wind.
