Disc Golf Starter Sets

A disc golf starter set is a beginner-friendly kit that includes the essential discs needed to start playing disc golf. It's designed for new players who want an easy and affordable way to get into the sport.

What’s Usually in a Starter Set?

A typical disc golf starter set includes:

  1. Driver (or Distance Driver)

    • Used for long-distance throws from the tee pad.

    • Designed for maximum speed and distance.

  2. Mid-Range Disc

    • Used for controlled, accurate throws between the tee and the basket.

    • Easier to throw than a driver for beginners.

  3. Putter

    • Used for short throws and putting into the basket.

    • Offers the most control and least speed.

Features of Starter Discs:

  • Lightweight (typically 150g–170g) – easier to throw for beginners.

  • Beginner-friendly plastics – softer, grippy, and less expensive.

  • Neutral flight characteristics – designed to fly straight with less fade or turn.

Who Should Get One?

Starter sets are great for:

  • New players trying out disc golf for the first time.

  • People looking for an inexpensive way to get discs.

  • Youth or casual players who don’t need high-performance gear yet.
