How to read flight numbers
Four numbers, one flight. Directions are for a right-handed backhand throw – mirror them for left-handed backhand or forehand.
- Speed1–14
How fast the disc must be thrown to fly as rated. Higher speed = more distance, but only with enough arm speed.
- Glide1–7
How long the disc stays in the air. High glide helps beginners get distance easily.
- Turn+1 to −5
Drift to the right during the fast part of the flight. −3 turns a lot, 0 flies straight.
- Fade0–5
The hook to the left as the disc slows down. 0 lands straight, 4 finishes hard left.

Frequently asked questions
What do disc golf flight numbers mean?
Flight numbers describe how a disc flies with a flat throw: Speed (1–15) is how fast it must be thrown, Glide (1–7) how long it stays in the air, Turn (+1 to −5) how much it drifts right early in the flight and Fade (0–5) how much it hooks left at the end. Directions are for a right-handed backhand throw.
Which discs should a beginner start with?
Start with a putter, a midrange and a slower fairway driver (speed 6–8). Choose discs with a negative turn and low fade – they fly straighter at lower arm speeds. Fast distance drivers need a lot of power before they fly as rated.
What does overstable and understable mean?
An overstable disc resists turning and finishes hard to the left (right-hand backhand). An understable disc drifts to the right and is easier to throw straight with less power. In this chart, stability is Turn + Fade: the higher the number, the more overstable the disc.
What is the difference between a putter, a midrange and a driver?
Putters (speed 1–3) are for putting and short approaches, midranges (4–5) for controlled shots of medium length, fairway drivers (6–9) for accurate drives and distance drivers (10 and up) for maximum distance.
Are flight numbers the same in every plastic?
Flight numbers are the manufacturer's rating for the mold. Plastic, weight and wear change how a disc flies: premium plastic is usually a little more stable, and a worn disc becomes more understable.
