The Stinger is a midrange rated 4/3/0/2. Zero turn with a fade rating of 2 at a slow speed suggests a controlled flight with a moderate left finish for a right-hand backhand. Its ratings suggest it is less suited to players seeking turnover lines or a long, gliding finish. Hero Disc USA, a flying disc company that also makes discs for canine play and competition, sells it in its three-disc golf starter set, which it aims at beginners. Hero calls the Stinger a point-and-shoot midrange for straight approach shots and short drives, and its stamp, which shows a scorpion-tailed robot, prints the same rating. The PDGA approved it as the Hero Stinger Mid-Range on 14 December 2020 (20-98). TryDiscs does not yet record a plastic row for it as of September 2026.
