The Phantom is one of Discraft's earliest golf discs, certified in 1983 (PDGA cert 83-02) at golf-standard dimensions (21.4 centimeters, 177.6-gram maximum) in an era when the company's Sky-series discs were still oversized catch molds. It became the head of a small family: the Phantom+ followed in 1986, a Phantom Light in 1987, and a Phantom Deuce in 1990. As a golf catalog item it was retired long ago and carries no published flight numbers here; the name endures mostly through that family tree and among collectors of first-decade Discraft.
