The Buzzz GT is a discontinued groove-top take on Discraft's Buzzz, rated 5/5/0/1: the family's famous straight flight, near-identical to a standard Buzzz in the air, plus the GT thumb track molded into the flight plate. It flew point-and-shoot straight, which made it a tunnel-shot and station-to-station mid while it lasted. The groove is the love-it-or-leave-it feature: some players swear by the repeatable thumb placement, others never warm to the feel, and that split is a fair summary of why the groove-top line stayed small within the lineup. Discraft certified it in February 2008 (PDGA cert 08-07), the same day as the Buzzz SS, during the era when the Buzzz was expanding into a full family. The GT has since been retired while the SS and OS live on. Remaining and used copies circulate in ESP, CryZtal, Jawbreaker, ESP Swirl, Z Metallic, and Tour Series ESP runs.

DiameterHow wide the disc is, edge to edge. Almost every disc is 21 to 22 cm.

HeightHow tall the disc is lying flat. Putters are usually the tallest.
1.7 cm
Rim DepthHow deep the rim is underneath, where your fingers grip. Putters have the deepest rims.
1.3 cm
Rim ThicknessHow wide the rim is. Wider rims make faster discs that need a stronger throw.
1.3 cm
Rim Inside DiameterThe width of the flat middle, inside the rim. Bigger usually means a slower, easier disc.
19 cm
Rim Depth/Diameter RatioRim depth as a share of the disc's width. Higher means a deeper rim for its size.
6%
Rim ConfigurationA PDGA score for the shape of the edge. Low is sharp, like a driver. High is rounded, like a putter.
44
BeadA small ridge under the edge of the rim, mostly on putters. It changes how the disc feels in hand.
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.
