Top 10 Must-Have Disc Golf Discs for Every Player!

Top 10 Must-Have Disc Golf Discs for Every Player!

Whether you're just getting started or a seasoned pro, having the right discs in your bag can make all the difference on the course. At True North Disc Golf, we’ve put together a list of the top 10 must-have discs that every player should consider adding to their collection.

1. Putter: Reliable and Precise

Your putter is your best friend inside the circle. A dependable putter gives you control and confidence for those crucial close-range shots. We recommend discs like the True North Precision Putter (or your favorite brand/model), known for its smooth flight and excellent grip.

2. Midrange: Versatile and Consistent

The midrange disc is a go-to for a variety of shots — from approach throws to controlled drives. Look for something stable with a comfortable feel, such as the True North Midrange Pro. It offers great glide and accuracy.

3. Fairway Driver: Control Meets Distance

Fairway drivers provide a good balance between distance and control. For players wanting to improve their drives with precision, the True North Fairway Flyer is a perfect pick.

4. Distance Driver: Maximum Distance

For those long holes where you need maximum distance, a reliable distance driver is key. Try the True North Distance King — designed for speed and power without sacrificing accuracy.

5. Understable Driver: Helpful for Beginners

If you’re newer to the game or struggle with turning the disc over, an understable driver helps your disc gently curve to the right (for right-hand backhand throws), making your drives smoother.

6. Overstable Driver: Fight the Wind

Windy days call for an overstable driver. This disc fights the wind better and holds its line with a strong fade at the end.

7. Putters with Different Grips

Not all putters feel the same. Having a couple with slightly different grips or rim sizes can help depending on your putting style and the course conditions.

8. Specialty Discs: Roller or Utility

Some players like to add roller discs or utility discs for specific shots. These can help navigate tricky course layouts or tricky obstacles.

9. Glow-in-the-Dark Discs

For late evening rounds or night disc golf events, glow discs are a must-have. They add fun and allow you to play longer.

10. Practice Discs

Having practice discs that you don’t mind using on rough terrain or during training sessions helps you keep your premium discs in good shape.


Final Tips:

  • Always choose discs that feel comfortable in your hand and suit your throwing style.

  • Experiment with different discs to discover what works best for you.
