The lid-like Envy is intended for putting and throwing, but it has become the industry standard for throwing putters, especially after James Conrad threw the "Holy Shot" in the 2021 World Championships. Its high parting line makes it slightly overstable and torque-resistant, which has helped secure its status as one of the most popular throwing putters. Many MVP-sponsored players utilize the Envy in some capacity, with James Conrad and Eagle McMahon both having special releases of the disc. While most people discovered the Envy (and maybe even disc golf, for that matter) in 2021 via Conrad's aforementioned "Holy Shot," it was actually the first Axiom disc to hit the market. Approved and released in 2014, the Envy launched MVP's newest venture, Axiom Discs. Axiom was marketed as more colorful discs designed in a more traditional way, utilizing feel over computed data a la MVP. Whether or not they were actually designed this way is up in the air, but the popularity of the brand cannot be understated, in large part due to the Envy. Envys have been produced in basically every plastic available at Axiom. In terms of collectibility, early runs of Envys are often highly coveted, particularly Eclipse runs. Watermelon Envys and McMahon "Rebirth" Envys can fetch quite a high price from collectors, as well as OTB releases.

The Axiom Envy is one of the most-reviewed discs we track.

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.
