Discraft Disc Golf Glo Z Swarm Midrange 5/3/0/4 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The Discraft Glo Z Swarm midrange is an overstable workhorse midrange, molded in Glo Z plastic. It's built for power throwers and control players alike, and it's at its best on tight fairways and crucial approaches. If you're shopping for a dependable Swarm for your bag, this Glo Z run is a great place to start.
Glo Z Plastic
Glo Z is Discraft's glow-in-the-dark Z plastic and the most popular variant for night rounds. It gives your Swarm the durability of Z with a glow that lights up evening leagues and glow rounds.
The Mold
The Swarm delivers a reliable overstable flight with a strong, predictable fade, making it ideal for tight fairways and crucial approach shots.
Stability
The Swarm is overstable. Overstable discs resist turning over and fade hard at the end, which makes them predictable in wind and at high power. For right-hand backhand (RHBH) throwers, it resists turning over and finishes with a strong, dependable fade to the left. Left-hand backhand (LHBH) throwers will see the mirror image, with that hard 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's best suited to intermediate and advanced players, and it's a valuable utility disc for anyone who plays in wind.
Flight Numbers
| Rating | Value | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | 5 | Midrange speed that rewards smooth form over raw power. |
| Glide | 3 | Moderate glide that carries without sailing past the target. |
| Turn | 0 | No high-speed turn, so it holds its line early in flight. |
| Fade | 4 | A strong, reliable fade to the left (RHBH) at the end of the flight. |
