Harpoon

4.5(41)
Mid Range
The Harpoon is a Lone Star Disc midrange rated 4/3/0/1, a slow, straight disc with a soft finish. No turn and a light fade suit approach shots, short drives and controlled lines on backhand, forehand or overhand throws. Players who want lots of glide or a heavy fade for wind should look elsewhere. Lone Star Disc says that with power the Harpoon holds the line it is put on, that a softer throw brings a slight fade, and that it suits approach shots on or off the tee. In its Victor plastics it floats in water, according to the company. On Disc Golf Course Review, three players described it as at least somewhat overstable. The PDGA approved it as The Harpoon on 14 December 2020 (20-93), in Lone Star Disc's first year of approved molds. On our comparison table its nearest matches are the Viking Discs Axe and the Discmania Tailor.

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.
