The Recluse is Legacy's highly overstable midrange, rated 5/3/0/4. Little turn and heavy fade suit forceful approaches, windy placement shots and short utility lines. A player looking for gentle carry through a straight gap may find the finish too dominant. Legacy describes a flat top and compact rim feel, and recommends the mold for forehands as well as backhands. The maker specifically pitches it for applying driver-like power at midrange distance. The PDGA approved the Recluse on 21 June 2018 (18-56). Its intended role is a hard-finishing midrange shot.

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.
