Shryke

4.8(691)
Distance Driver
The Shryke is a fast, easy-to-throw distance driver rated 13/6/-2/2, with a mild high-speed turn that flows into big glide and only a gentle fade at the end (for a right-handed backhand). Innova's pitch is distance made accessible: the speed and glide do the work while the modest turn and fade keep it on the fairway rather than diving out. It suits a wide range of arms, giving lower-power players reachable distance and stronger players a controllable high-speed line. Innova describes it as similar to the Tern but faster and slightly more stable at high speed, so it is the pick if the Tern turns too much for you. Thrown flat it glides long; on a hyzer angle it holds. It is a shallow, beadless speed-13 rim. Approved in 2016, the Shryke slotted in as a faster, more forgiving companion to the Tern in Innova's understable-distance lineup. Star and GStar fly the most understable and glidey; Champion holds the more stable end and lasts longer.

The Innova Shryke 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.

  • Mako3 is better

    I had one of these in champion plastic that went dead straight, and then I lost it and replaced it with a champion shryke from a different run. It also goes dead straight. Idk why people say innova discs are inconsistent
