Disc golf
Molds, wind, and the decisions a casual group should make before hole 1.
Flight numbers are the speed, glide, turn, and fade figures published for that mold. Plastic, wear, and arm speed change how a disc flies. A speed-12 driver is not a beginner’s wind disc just because the numbers say it fades.
Nothing here is the PDGA rulebook. Tournament play uses the current official rules. These lists are for casual rounds and for choosing what to bag.
