by
Prodigy Disc
SKU: DG-PDG-500-H6 (REF2881-1)
Description
The Prodigy 500 H6 distance driver is an 11-speed, understable hybrid driver, molded in 500 plastic. It's built for newer players and anyone who wants easy distance and turnovers, and it's at its best on controllable turn and impressive glide. If you're shopping for a dependable H6 for your bag, this 500 run is a great place to start.
500 Plastic
500 is a premium blend with a less gummy feel than 400, giving an extremely confident grip and a stiffer flight plate that balances flex and firmness. Its uniquely pearlescent finish adds another visual element, and it's a great choice for heavy woods.
The Mold
The H6 is an 11-speed understable hybrid driver, the first of its speed in the H-series. It has impressive glide with controllable turn and fade, making it a great distance driver for newer players and a dynamic option for power throwers.
Stability
The H6 is understable. Understable discs turn away from your throwing arm at speed, making turnovers and hyzer-flips easier and helping lower-power players fly straight. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it tends to drift right during the fastest part of its flight, then shows a gentle fade back to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, drifting left early and fading right at the end. Forehand flights flip that pattern: right-hand forehand (RHFH) follows the LHBH line and left-hand forehand (LHFH) follows the RHBH line. It suits beginners who need help getting straight flights as well as advanced players who want to shape turnovers.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 11 | Distance-driver speed that needs good arm speed to fly as rated. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -3 | Noticeable turn to the right (RHBH) at speed, great for turnovers and hyzer-flips. |
| Fade | 1 | Very little fade, so it finishes nearly straight. |
