MVP Disc Golf Neutron Resistor Fairway Driver 6.5/4/0/3.5 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The MVP Neutron Resistor fairway driver is MVP's overstable fairway driver, molded in Neutron plastic. It's built for players who need a controllable, wind-fighting fairway driver, and it's at its best on headwind drives, forehands, and hard-fading lines. If you're shopping for a dependable Resistor 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 Resistor 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 Resistor is also available in Eclipse and Proton.
The Mold
The Resistor is a 21.1 cm fairway driver with a 16.5 mm rim. The Resistor is part of MVP's slower family of fairway drivers with more controllable speed. Its flat, overstable profile and GYRO technology let it resist turn and finish with a strong, reliable fade.
Stability
The Resistor 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 | 6.5 | Fairway speed, manageable for most arms. |
| Glide | 4 | 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. |
