Escape

4.7(299)
Control Driver
The Escape is Dynamic Discs' gliding driver rated 9/5/-1/2, with a little turn and a moderate fade. It suits controlled distance and varied release angles, particularly when a fast distance rim would add more speed demand than the shot needs. Dynamic Discs emphasizes glide at lower power and says the mold can be used on several angles, including for rollers. Dynamic Discs' shot-use notes specifically include longer turnovers. A player can therefore choose Escape for a turning distance line as well as a straighter placement drive, with the release angle and throwing speed deciding which role fits. The original Escape received PDGA approval on 7 December 2012. Supreme Escape has a separate 2022 approval, making the full product identification relevant when comparing older discs with newer listings.

The Dynamic Discs Escape 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.
