Mystic

4.6(37)
Mid Range
The Mystic is Gateway's turning midrange, rated 5/5/-3/0. It is suited to gentle carry at lower power and to turnover approaches that need very little return toward the fading side. Stronger throwers may need a hyzer start to avoid turning the disc farther than the fairway allows. Gateway promotes it for low-effort straight shots and for shaping both turnovers and hyzers. With no fade in the published quartet, the angle and speed of the release play a large part in where it finishes. That makes it a less natural choice for a shot whose main requirement is a hard hook. The PDGA lists an original Mystic approval in March 2012 and a retooled approval on 14 May 2013.

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.

    Great understable disc. Easy to control and a lot of glide for distance.
