Honu

SMALL BRAND
Control Driver
The Honu is a control driver rated 9/4/-2/2. A turn rating of -2 with a fade rating of 2 suggests a fairway flight that drifts right at speed for a right-hand backhand before a moderate finish; slower arms tend to see less of that drift. Its ratings suggest it is less suited to players prioritizing resistance to high-speed turnover. AstroDisc says the Honu fades noticeably at the end of its flight, and prints a sea turtle on the stamp. The brand offers it in Base, Grip and Pro materials, which TryDiscs does not yet record, and says its discs are made in the USA. The PDGA approved it on 23 March 2023 (23-85). TryDiscs does not yet record a plastic row for it as of September 2026.
