Innova Disc Golf Proto Glow Champion Lynx Fairway Driver 7/6/-3/1 - Choose Exact Disc
Description
The Innova Proto Glow Champion Lynx fairway driver is a long-gliding fairway driver (the new name for the IT), molded in Proto Glow Champion plastic. It's built for newer players and anyone who wants easy distance and turnovers, and it's at its best on tight woods, standstills, and rollers. If you're shopping for a dependable Lynx for your bag, this Proto Glow Champion run is a great place to start.
Proto Glow Champion Plastic
Proto Glow is Innova's major upgrade over its older, fast-fading glow plastics. It glows significantly brighter and lasts much longer, holding visible illumination for 20 minutes or more. Proto Glow Champion is the premium, durable version with a glowing core. Designed for professional players, Champion discs are usually a little firmer and more stable than the same model in other plastics, and they keep performing predictably and avoid damage better than any other plastic, even on wooded or rugged courses.
The Mold
The Lynx is the new name for the IT: the same long-gliding fairway driver, just easier to find. With gentle turn and serious glide, it holds your release line and keeps carrying when other fairway drivers might fade out. It's great for tight woods, standstills, low ceilings, and even rollers right out of the box.
Stability
The Lynx 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.
