Comet

4.7(292)
Mid Range
The Comet is a classic understable midrange rated 4/5/-2/1, a glidey, beaded mold that turns gently to the right (for a right-handed backhand) and holds that turn before only a slight fade. One of Discraft's oldest midranges, it has long been valued for its big glide and easy, controllable turnover flights. That combination of glide and gentle turn makes it a forgiving, versatile mid: it holds straight-to-turning lines, floats for extra carry, and shapes easy turnover and hyzer-flip shots. The beaded rim gives it a secure, classic feel. It is a beaded midrange. It leans understable, so it favors touch and turning lines over overstable, wind-fighting finishes. Approved in 1995, the Comet is one of Discraft's long-standing understable midranges, a glide-forward classic. ESP and Z runs hold the flight; a beat-in Comet turns even more and makes a dependable roller.

The Discraft Comet 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.
