Prodigy Disc Golf 750 Glimmer FX-3 - Snake Hunter 9/5/-1/2 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The Prodigy 750 Glimmer FX-3 fairway driver is a fast, stable fairway driver with noticeable glide, molded in 750 Glimmer plastic. It's built for players who want a predictable, reliable flight, and it's at its best on angle-holding fairway drives. This listing is the Snake Hunter release of the FX-3.
750 Glimmer Plastic
750 is a premium blend similar in grip and texture to 400 but with a firmer feel. It's extremely durable with outstanding performance and predictability, and its rigidity makes it great in hot weather. Glimmer adds eye-catching metal specks molded into the plastic.
The Mold
The FX-3 has a slightly wider rim than traditional fairway discs, which pairs with noticeable glide to push an extra step further. Its stable flight lets players of different arm speeds execute different shot shapes, and it holds its angle a long time before a reliable finish.
Stability
The FX-3 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 | 9 | Fairway speed, manageable for most arms. |
| Glide | 5 | Lots of glide to help it stay in the air and add distance. |
| Turn | -1 | 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. |

Yes. The FX-3's predictable flight makes it easy to trust as you learn.
