MVP Disc Golf Proton Volt Fairway Driver 8/5/-0.5/2 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The MVP Proton Volt fairway driver is MVP's slightly overstable fairway driver, molded in Proton plastic. It's built for players who need accuracy on long, tight fairways, and it's at its best on long, accurate placement drives. If you're shopping for a dependable Volt for your bag, this Proton run is a great place to start.
Proton Plastic
Proton is MVP's original premium blend: a translucent core with stunning optical clarity and vibrant candy colors, paired with a black GYRO rim. It's designed for high durability and a long, consistent life, even in the roughest conditions. Proton has similar durability to Neutron with slightly more grip, and the translucent core looks great with an LED light for night rounds. The Volt is also available in Cosmic Neutron, Electron, Fission and Neutron.
The Mold
The Volt is a 21.1 cm fairway driver with an 18 mm rim. The Volt is geared for long, accurate placement shots. It holds a long straight line, then finishes with a solid, forward-penetrating fade. Reach for it when accuracy is needed on long, tight fairways.
Stability
The Volt 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 | 8 | Fairway speed, manageable for most arms. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -0.5 | 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. |

FAQ
Is the MVP Volt good for beginners?
It can be. The Volt is controllable at fairway speed, though it finishes with a solid fade.
Is the MVP Volt overstable?
Not really. The Volt is stable, rated 8/5/-0.5/2, so it flies straight with a dependable fade rather than the hard hook of an overstable disc.
What's the difference between Proton and Neutron plastic?
Proton is translucent with slightly more grip, while Neutron is opaque. Both are highly durable and hold their flight for a long time.
What disc is similar to the MVP Volt?
The MVP Proton Servo (6.5/5/-1/2) is a slower, straight-stable fairway driver with more glide.
How far does the MVP Volt fly?
With an average arm, expect roughly 325 feet. Distance depends heavily on your power and form, so stronger throwers will go farther and newer players shorter.
