Do Hype Discs Actually Fly Better? | Disc Golf Challenge
Do Hype Discs Actually Fly Better? Disc golf enthusiasts have long debated whether hype discs bring an edge to one's game. To settle the question, Foundation Nation puts a stock bag to the test against a collection of highly sought-after discs, including those from Rock and Buzz collab boxes. The experiment pits two different disc golfers - Trevor and another player - against each other at the New London Shorts course on the FPO layout. With 12 holes to play, they'll see if hype discs truly make a difference in performance. The video will explore the effects of high-end discs versus generic stock ones, with a focus on technique, stability, and overall playing experience. From tour series Cicada and Beast to Arctic Assassin P2X, watch as the pros take aim at par 4s like the 500-ft hole one, and discover if hype discs are worth the extra cost for serious golfers.

What is good Foundation Nation? Today we're seeing what all the hype's about by putting a just boring old stock bag to the test against the hypest discs you've ever seen. >> [music] >> So essentially Trevor will be playing with a bag made up entirely of discs that people get riled up about.

Are you kidding me? >> Little kiss left. >> That was so sneaky. >> That Beast might need to just actually end up in my real bag. >> Okay, I got a lot of options. We'll go tour series Cicada to start the day. Ah! I actually hit the line, but a little bit too late to flip. I think I on the FPO though, like that's pretty good still. That's okay.
