The Nemesis is Legacy's highly understable driver, rated 10/6/-4/2, aimed at long turning flights with some returning fade. It suits players developing distance and stronger throwers seeking extended turnovers or rollers. Its speed-10 rating still calls for a driver release, so very low power can produce an early fade instead. Legacy positions the Nemesis between the slower control-driver role and its faster distance molds. The maker recommends it both to developing players and to experienced throwers using the turn deliberately. Its glide is part of that distance-oriented brief, while the finish gives it a different purpose from a disc rated without fade. The PDGA approved the Nemesis on 6 February 2015 (15-20). On a trial throw, watch whether the turning phase creates usable carry or takes the disc farther off line than the shot allows.

HeightHow tall the disc is lying flat. Putters are usually the tallest.
1.5 cm
Rim DepthHow deep the rim is underneath, where your fingers grip. Putters have the deepest rims.
1.1 cm

2 cm
Rim Inside DiameterThe width of the flat middle, inside the rim. Bigger usually means a slower, easier disc.
17.3 cm
Rim Depth/Diameter RatioRim depth as a share of the disc's width. Higher means a deeper rim for its size.

Rim ConfigurationA PDGA score for the shape of the edge. Low is sharp, like a driver. High is rounded, like a putter.

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.
