MVP Disc Golf Neutron Matrix midrange 5/4/-1/2 - Choose Exact Disc
SKU: DG-MVP-NE-MTX (REF689-38)
Description
The MVP Neutron Matrix midrange is MVP's stable, turnover-resistant midrange, molded in Neutron plastic. It's built for players of all power levels who want a dependable straight-then-fade mid, and it's at its best on long straight midrange lines with a dependable fade. If you're shopping for a dependable Matrix for your bag, this Neutron run is a great place to start.
Neutron Plastic
Neutron is MVP's most popular plastic and its flagship blend. It's opaque with a premium look and feel and a dependable grip, and it comes in the widest selection of bright colors, which makes your Matrix easy to spot in the rough. Neutron shares the high durability of Proton, so it holds its flight for a long time instead of wearing in quickly. It comes with a black GYRO rim for better line holding. The Matrix is also available in Electron and Proton.
The Mold
The Matrix is a 21.5 cm midrange with a 13 mm rim. The Matrix is designed to resist turnover for all power levels and situations, and MVP describes its stability as a longer Axiom Envy. Most throwers will see a long, straight travel followed by a dependable fade. It isn't a meat-hook overstable mid, but release angle makes all the difference, giving useful flights from anhyzer to flat to hyzer.
Stability
The Matrix is stable. Stable discs fly straight for most of their flight and finish with a dependable fade. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it flies straight with a reliable fade to the left at the end. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with the 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 suits players of every skill level who want a predictable flight.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 5 | Midrange speed that rewards smooth form over raw power. |
| Glide | 4 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | -1 | A touch of high-speed turn to the right (RHBH) for a little extra distance. |
| Fade | 2 | A moderate, dependable fade at the end of the flight. |

- MVP Neutron Ion (2.5/3/0/1.5): A stable putter to round out your short game.
FAQ
Is the MVP Matrix good for beginners?
It can be. The Matrix resists turning over, so it's forgiving of off-axis releases, though newer players will see more fade than with an understable mid.
Is the MVP Matrix overstable?
Not really. The Matrix is stable, rated 5/4/-1/2, so it flies straight with a dependable fade rather than the hard hook of an overstable disc.
What's the difference between Neutron and Proton plastic?
Neutron is opaque with a dependable grip, while Proton is translucent with similar durability and slightly more grip. Both hold their flight for a long time.
What disc is similar to the MVP Matrix?
The MVP Neutron Reactor (5/5/-0.5/1.5) is MVP's workhorse mid with more glide and a little less fade.
How far does the MVP Matrix fly?
With an average arm, expect roughly 275 feet. Distance depends heavily on your power and form, so stronger throwers will go farther and newer players shorter.
