Discgolf discs are divided into several basic types according to their flight characteristics, especially speed:
Puttery - the slowest discs used primarily for putting. But they are also great for long throws - they fly relatively most similarly to a classic frisbee, they hold the set flight path perfectly and you can easily recognize mistakes in your technique. That's why we recommend throwing as much as possible with putters from the beginning and working your way up to a faster discs gradually and slowly.
Midrange - medium distance discs. Still great to use and accurate. If you just want to try disc golf, just one disc is all you need, which is a straight midrange.
Fairway driver - sometimes also called "Control driver" - long-distance discs with speed of 6 to 9. You can reach solid distance with these, but it needs to have a bit of a smooth technique already.
Distance driver - discs for the longest distances with speed of 10 to 15. The faster they are - the wider rim they have and therefore it may not fit well in someone's hand. To control the distance driver and throw it well you would need to have the technique well mastered. Beginners should avoid distance drivers.
In addition to these four basic types, you will find other designations from some manufacturers, such as Approach disks, Hybrid drivers (discs between the fairway and distance driver), etc.
