The Lynx is Innova's understable fairway driver, formerly known as the IT (Innova Tech), rated 7/6/-3/1: it turns readily to the right (for a right-handed backhand) with big glide before only a slight fade. That easy turn and glide make it a friendly distance aid for developing arms and a dependable shot-shaper for stronger ones.
At moderate power it flips up and rides for easy distance, and it holds long turnover and hyzer-flip lines; stronger arms use it for turnovers, flex shots and rollers rather than dead-straight power. It is a beadless fairway driver. Anyone wanting a stable, wind-fighting fairway driver should look elsewhere, since the Lynx is built to turn.
The mold was PDGA-approved in 2021 under the name IT, and Innova renamed it to the Lynx in February 2026, carrying its understable, glidey character forward under the new name.
Proto Glow DX beats in toward more turn, while the Glow Champion run holds the rated flight longer.

BeadA small ridge under the edge of the rim, mostly on putters. It changes how the disc feels in hand.
