The Beech is an Above Ground Level midrange rated 5/2/0/3. Limited glide and a strong finish suit hyzer routes and placement shots where a long forward carry would overshoot the landing. AGL's 2021 product page gives the Beech a specific origin. The brand says it encountered an existing Gateway mold identified as number 52 in a mystery box in December 2020, then acquired the remaining discs and adopted the design for its own lineup. A team naming process produced Beech. The PDGA approved the Beech under Above Ground Level on 30 August 2021.

Questions

Reviews

5 reviews from 3 stores

The Above Ground Level Beech has only 5 reviews so far, so one opinion can swing the picture. That's why there's no star average yet.

Try Discs adds up reviews from six disc golf stores, so you see what players think across stores, not just at one shop. Reviews are great for spotting proven, popular discs. Take the details with a grain of salt, though: runs, plastics and skill level all change how a disc flies, so your experience may vary.
